LiveSand Dollar

While we were at Coronado Island, Aaron found a live Sand Dollar.....I have never seen one of these alive. He was standing on it when the sand washed out from under him. It was so cool, here are him and Jordan playing with it.

Emma at the beach

Emma is so happy when she is at the beach, I guess we will just have to move here. Also, amazing things happened to her rough little skin, apparently, salt air is good for rough dry skin.

Coronado Beach

This weekend we took an adventure to San Diego. We went to Sea World, then the Midway Battleship. Last of all, we finished off with Coronado Beach, where Jordan played in the water. Here are some videos of the beach. This first one is Jordan running into the water and making friends, as he so easily does

Adventure

Well, we are off to take the kids on an adventure. We were headed to Salt Lake City, UT to take the kids to the zoo, then found out the H1N1 virus is really bad there, a friend of ours has been quarantined because of it. So, we decided to go to San Diego, CA. We are taking Emma and Jordan to Sea World and the beach. We are excited to go. We will post more pictures as the excursion takes place.

Baltimore Bunnies Block 2 Comparison

OK, here is the comparison between our two blocks. Mine is the bottom one and took about 13 hours, my mom's is the top and 11 hours 55 minutes.

Mom's Baltimore Bunny Block 2

Well, my mom finally finished her Baltimore Bunny. My brother, a fat loving little ShihTzu sent me the pics this morning. I will quote him exactly, because he would get very upset if I didn't. Here is her picture and here is what Oggie said

"Mum sed et unly tuck her 11hrs n 55min tuh du thus

Luv yeh ses, Dog

PS Wll send pecs ufff meh quelt letterrr"

So, here is hers posted with her wonderful companion Oggie, also known as Dog. In the next post, ours will be side to side, so you can see the difference.

Emmarysa's Quilt

Finally finished Emmarysa's quilt. Hey, it is only 3 months late. Here she is sitting on it. It will look great in her crib!

Planetary Party 3rd Block

Here is the 3rd Block I have completed for Jordan's quilt.

I love Amy Bradley, her patterns are so easy. This was done in about an hour.

Look what we did today!

We pierced Emma's ears today! They look so stinking cute. She was a real trooper. My S-I-L, Cristina got the wonderful job of holding her. I just couldn't do it. But, Emma cried more when they put the dots on her ears than when they actually put them in. But all in all, she cried for about 2 seconds and then she was laughing at us. Of course, the whole excursion wore her out. I moved her to the swing and she did not even wake up.

2nd Baltimore Bunny Block

I finished my second Baltimore Bunny Block, yeah, before Mom did. It only took me 13 hours this time, about 1/2 of the last one. This one is way easier, thank goodness. I am glad they are not all as time consuming as the first one. I will post Mom's when she finishes it, should be sometime soon. I also have up a picture of a very rare moment. Both children were sitting in front of the TV, together watching Baby Einstein's numbers.
