Next come the knock knock jokes

Who would have thought that this could be so hilarious?.....

"Guess what?" "What?" "Chicken butt!"

"Guess who?" "Who?" "Chicken poo!"

"Guess when?" "When?" Chicken hen!"

"Guess how?" "How?" "Chicken cow!"

"Guess why?" "Why?" "Chicken thigh!"

"Guess where?" "Where?" "Chicken hair!"

Three/almost 4 year olds are easily amused.

Perfect Los Angeles weather

It was such a cold windy day today which makes the weather PERFECT! Not a bit of haze or smog and big grey and white clouds against perfectly blue sky. This is the kind of day that makes me think that I could never leave California! We went out to a park at the beach that is usually really nice but it was so cold and windy that we could only stay for an hour or so. The temperature dropped continuously and by the time we left we were running to the car to get out of the wind.

I included a couple of pictures of our drive to get to Anders school. It's about a ten to fifteen minute drive but it feels like 5 minutes because I'm always enjoying the scenery.

4 Years

Today it's been 4 years since Chris and I said "I do". We thought that it was the best wedding that we had been to. =0)

Happy Anniversary to us!!

The nicest moments

I love being a mom especially when......

I get to put my child to sleep by tickling his tummy with one of those pens with a big flower on the end.

I get a big hug and an "I love you with all of my veins!"

I get to smell freshly washed little boy hair.

I get to hug my sweaty little boy and smell his musky little boy hair!

Daddy takes over and I can hear them in the other room wrestling.

I overhear another parent say what a nice boy I have.

Today was Dino Parade day!

A little video of Anders Dino Parade day at pre-school.

Finally posting something!

It has been WAY too long since I posted but in my defense it has been a completely crazy month which included different sicknesses every weekend, doctors appointments due to a very early miscarriage (more about that later), play dates, pre-school, running around with our new (to us) car and many other important and non-important events.

Another factor has been that Anders has decided that sleep is not as important as WE think it is and gets up at random times during the night as well as really early in the morning. I'm the one who gets to deal with this and so I am extremely tired all of the time lately. At this moment I am yawning uncontrollably and wondering how early I can get away with putting him to bed. By the way, a three and a half year old does NOT do well on not enough sleep either!

We've also been having a lot fun with our little car that we received almost two weeks ago! Today we went to the L.A. Zoo. It is such a relief to have wheels to get around. It couldn't have come at a better or more needed time.

Speaking of reasons we've needed the car, I went to the doctor last week because my body was not working properly. I thought something was wrong but needed a second opinion. Low and behold I had had a miscarriage. Luckily it was very early on. So early that I didn't even suspect that I was pregnant! This experience was a blessing in disguise because I found a really great fertility doctor who is really proactive about helping us make this pregnancy thing happen! We'll be ready to think about it again in a few months and between now and then I'll be working on getting as healthy as I can and making sure that I have good health insurance that covers everything that could possibly happen.

I'll update when there is anything to update.

Here area few pictures of our trip to the zoo and one of our new wheels.
