A little something for our homies

We took this picture two weeks ago at the start of the game but I'm a slacker and never managed to upload it until now. Today seems like the better unveiling anyway. The boys will be able to say they knew where they were when the Black and Gold won their sixth.

The Simplest Joys!

G-Funk can turn anything into a weed whacker, lawn mower, edger, electric clipper, vacuum cleaner, leaf blower, power tool or blender. The best part is that he shouts Meh! at the top of his lungs as he correctly mimics the motions for the appropriate machine for extended periods of time. He has an incredible amount of stamina and endurance for this noise and we can only imagine what it must be like to be our neighbors.

Needless to say, G-Funk is always happy when Mama actually lets him vacuum. Today he helped me clean the kitchen and dining room floors and then wriggled all over with joy as I suggested he vacuum his and his brother's chair.

He did a great job too!


The Pirate had his own gleeful moments today as he got in a lot of dirt and/or sand throwing. He can't get enough of it. He has an arm! You should see him play ball. He plays better than G-Funk. I've got to get a picture of it. For now you'll have to imagine it from these.

Lazy Sunday

I'm hitting the easy button today. A picture is supposed to be worth a thousand words right? Or so 'they' say.

Aren't they sweet?



I title this one: Yo! Whattup?


That is one dirty baby!



Gotta love the cheeseball grin of a toddler.

Mommy can jump!

I know this blog is really about G-Funk and The Pirate but I do have something wonderful to share about me. I can jump. No shit dude, like two feet off the ground at the same time and air under my heels. There was a period in the last 5.5 years that I thought I would never jump again. Hop maybe, jump, nope. I have just come inside after jumping with Chris on our back patio. I jumped! It's fantastic. :)

Happy New Year!

Welcome 2009!

We've been pretty low key recently, enjoying our new Christmas loot and misty ocean weather. Here are two recent pics I think you'll like.



Daddy and G-Funk at the cliffs near our house enjoying a cool Christmas afternoon.

I won't lie. I was slightly nervous to see G-Funk's legs on the other side of the rail but I know Daddy has lightning fast hands and a keen ability to catch just about anything so I swallowed my completely irrational maternal fear and snapped a photo instead of allowing panic to reign over me.



And watch out world! The Pirate has begun cruising.

He's a speedy crawler and a bit of a daredevil at times but still cautious when it comes to actual walking practice. He loves to stand at our front fence and cruise along though so I bet walking is not too far off. He and I have been spending a lot of early afternoons outside recently so that he can squawk his little head off and not disturb G-Funk's much needed afternoon nap. After a spell outside, he's usually ready to go back in and nap and I am always more than happy to oblige.
