Funny Girl
Thursday, June 29th, 2006My Daisy cracks me up. She just went down for her nap and insisted on taking two bouncy balls and a book on the life cycle of Monarch butterflies into bed with her.
My initial plan for last night was to take Tabitha to hula but take her home around 8:30pm or 9:00pm. In the end, […]
annoyed and a really long paragraph on Star Wars
Wednesday, June 28th, 2006 We attempted to take the recycling for the third time today and once again the machine was broken. I’m tired of hauling all those empty 2-liters in my trunk. Do you know how much Diet Coke I drink? Seriously, it’s packed to the gills.
My monitor took a weird dive last night and now there […]
download
Tuesday, June 27th, 2006Finally downloaded two songs I’ve been wanting, “Woman” by Wolfmother and “I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor” by Arctic Monkeys. Still blasting the Raconteurs every chance I get as well. I need to listen a bit more to Pearl Jam’s new one since we’ll be seeing them in less than 2 weeks.

gameshow
Tuesday, June 27th, 2006It’s time for everyone’s favorite game: “Find that Odor!” [queue the music and applause]
It’s not the trash, diapers, dishwasher, sink or fridge. Thank goodness it’s not too pungent and is just kind of sweet. Still. I’d like it to go away. I’ve been cleaning everything possible in my kitchen today. I even dumped salt down […]
yucky
Monday, June 26th, 2006My typing fingers are silent for a bit as I’m having a rough few days. Just depressing weather and I’m head-achy and dead tired from way too little sleep in way too long. I may need a few more days or I may post 5 things tomorrow, hard to say.
violin
Friday, June 23rd, 2006So last night one of the layouts I did was when Tabitha received her violin. The pictures are not of her actual violin because at her very first lesson her instructor told us she needed the next size up and the pictures were taken the night before. We went to exchange it and it actually […]
scrappin’
Friday, June 23rd, 2006Yesterday I got three scrapbook layouts done, one single page and two doubles. Go me! LOL Now, if I do that many every day for the next two years, well, I still won’t be caught up. But I left my craft table open hoping I get another layout in today as well. It’s tricky fitting […]
Friday-Saturday-Sunday
Monday, June 19th, 2006Friday:
Once Chris was home we hit the mall for the Clinique counter where I got conned by a salesgirl. Next was the Gap because they were having a BIG Sale (according to their sign). It was pretty good but we only walked away with khakis for me and a hat for Daisy (The hat deserves […]
Tabitha and Daisy
Thursday, June 15th, 2006Tabitha has rather long hair and it is prone to tangles. She has taken to sleeping in a “plait” as she likes to call it, which has definitely helped. But even the tiniest tangle is cause for “OW!” as loud as can be. Now Miss Daisy finds this quite funny and laughs hysterically at every […]
good times
Tuesday, June 13th, 2006Last night we spent some time in our back yard after dinner. The girls put on a Chinese New Year Parade. How does one put on a Chinese New Year parade, you ask? Well, child number one grabs one end of the jump rope and child number two grabs the other end. They then march […]
all disney all day
Sunday, June 11th, 2006We hit Disneyland today for what was supposed to be a 4 hour trip. We got up super early and were dead tired owing to the fact that Chris and I didn’t go to bed until 1:30am. The kids, of course, went to be much earlier and slept later. Speaking of which, why is it […]
annoyed
Friday, June 9th, 2006I really need to change that pic on the right there. Speaking of which, for those that said they didn’t see a side bar at all, make sure you are on the front page http://ancfam.net. If you read through an RSS feed and then click here it takes you to a page with just that […]
park time
Thursday, June 8th, 2006We had a play date at a park yesterday. Daisy was in climbing heaven. There were three different climbing structures in three sizes, of course, she spent most of her time on the largest one. At one point she did go to the medium one and as she was climbing up to the second level […]
Sleep well
Wednesday, June 7th, 2006Why you should never fall asleep with a toddler around. I dozed off yesterday while laying on the couch, my two children happily reading in the same room as I. Perhaps 10 minutes passes, maybe even less. Suddenly I am awakened by a little person who decided it would be fun to climb on the […]
blah-blah-blog
Tuesday, June 6th, 2006Don’t you hate when you go to read a blog and the first sentence is about how the author doesn’t feel like blogging? How do you feel when it’s the second or third sentence?
In any case, life has been going on quite swimmingly as usual. Massive heat kept us away from our favorite location, Disneyland. […]
Previously in the Anc Fam
Friday, June 2nd, 2006Tabitha: Man, it’s like an oven in here [the car]
Me: That’s because Daddy’s cheap [he drives with A/C off to save gas]
Chris: I prefer the term ‘frugal’
Tabitha: Okay, then it feels frugal in here
Chris: [rummaging in fridge] What should I take for lunch?
Me: A twenty
Me: Daisy, sit down
Daisy: Sit
Me: Good girl, sit down
Daisy: Nooooooo!
Creative writing […]
The rest
Friday, June 2nd, 2006It turns out I was wrong, it wasn’t just an okay birthday because I was making the plans, it’s because Chris wasn’t here. The moment her walked in the door, my mood improved ten-fold. We didn’t do anything special or even out of the ordinary, it was just better because he was here. Therefore, the […]
