Month: January 2013

We checked into our suite on the Disney Fantasy this week. We had a HUGE room right at the front of the ship. Mommy and Daddy had a private room.

Emmer and I shared the sofa bed and the fold down bed.

Our HUGE private porch.

You could see down on the teen club below.

This bed magically appeared every night at bedtime!

Our room was always a mess (sort of) because we spent a lot of time relaxing and enjoying the room.

We had a nice dining area as well.

The bathroom was enormous. I loved the tub! There was also a shower in here too. Emmerson and I had our own bathroom that was a bit smaller but had a really nice shower.

This week in science class I was challenged to get water from place to place with the use of tubes and my own previous knowledge. We started with two glasses and a piece of tubing. I figured it out right away that if i lifted one glass the water would go up the tube and into the other glass.

Then we moved on to 2 liter bottles and more tubing.

I had to make a contraption that would get the water from bottle A to B and then from B to C!

Instead of suction and gravity I opted for an air pressure system. My teacher was amazed how well it worked!

So proud!

Grandma Jo sent this over today. 5 years ago I stayed over with them for a few nights when Emmerson was born. I was SO excited to have a little brother. Lately, he drives me NUTS! He has learned how to push my buttons so well. But I do love him so very much! Happy 5th Monkey Boy!

We finished our Lego team project. We go to our competition in February and area really excited!

We have 2-3 mutant Florida squirrels in the back yard. They have basically decided our garden is equal to a 24 hour a day buffet. They have dug up just about everything! After an exhausting morning of digging one opted for sunbathing on the playhouse!

I am building lots of new structures.

We are learning more in science.

More building today with Connect-a-straws.

I made a flower and quickly it became a ferris wheel and then something else.

I keep telling Mommy I don’t have time to play. This is the time last year when i was just losing my marbles and my behavior tanked. I made great strides and now am in that same funk again. I am constantly challenging Mommy and Daddy. They are hoping that it is just a phase and I grow out of it rather quickly. I think I spend more time in time-out lately. It’s tough being 7 right now.

Mommy checked on our hermit crabs today and found that one had just molted and it looking for a new shell.
