Happy Halloween!


Drawn by Kyra - 1st Grade

Funny Texas

As you enter Holiday Lakes, here are a few fun things we've noticed...A Tennis Court
A Handball Court
and what looks to be what's left of the Wicked Witch of the West's home from the Wizard of Oz! LOL

How CJ spends his day...


First, he wakes up after his 3rd or 4th baba during the night and avoids me to change his dunkie. (As you can see the boy is already hiding in the corner...) But good thing, this boy LOVES taking showers so now we just throw him in there when he has more in his dunkie than I want to clean up. LOL He's getting the hang of that idea and now jumps in with whomever is taking a shower, even with his clothes on!

Next, he's "Seannie Boy"! Just lounges, and lounges, and lounges while his sister just eats, and eats, and eats! Them two have teamed-up alternating snacks and sippy cups and have a regular TV schedule between Noggin, Discovery, and Disney. Talk about updated Preschool Technology - Alyssa singing out her ABC's while CJ dances and attempts to sing too. They love to dance to "Hi-5" and CJ zones out during "Bigfoot Monster Trucks". Video to soon be launched...stay tune.

By afternoon, right before I leave to pick up Kyra from school at 3pm (long day at school here in Texas - 7:50am - 3:10pm for 1st graders???) he'll knock out for a bit. As you can see, CJ has a new "shadow pal" TAZ who likes to pick up after CJ's snack droppings. She's been getting spoiled by the kids since we moved here. She sleeps w/ the girls and follows CJ - so cute!

And then... it starts up all over again!

PS- So where's DJ? He's either in his cage (see above pic, next to Alyssa) or out back in the fenced in yard letting out his energy until he learns his boundaries. CJ still rides him like a pony but DJ's been in TIMEOUT moreso lately and getting use to his cage. He's slowly adjusting. The cage is suppose to be just for TIMEOUT, but he seems to like it in there- probably because it's "his place" aways from the other 3 girl dogs. Like CJ, he's still a bit confused where he lives. Sometimes when CJ misses DJ, he'll climb into the cage with him! Talk about "boys best friend" LOL
