Bug's Riddle

You can kick it and run,
You can kick it and fall.
Guess what it is,
It's a fun soccer _____

Our Bug is having great fun making up riddles lately! This one not only had rhythm, it rhymed!

Anka Spada

So, Bug has her own language. And her favorite phrase in Bugspeak is "anka spada." So what does "anka spada" mean? Anything she wants! Yesterday it meant "I love you" and today it meant "Good morning!" She likes to randomly say it throughout the day and is even more tickled to keep you guessing at what it means. Silly Bug!

Mugger's Quote of the Day

"I have a loose tooth, Mr. Bathroom!"
Yes, Mugger is a bit excited this morning that he can wiggle one of his teeth (bottom left middle). They grow up so fast...

Mugger's middle name? Perseverance!

OK, our little Mugger just blows me away sometimes... He's been out shooting baskets with his tennis ball on the patio. He started at 9:19 (he told me so!) and had me set the timer for 10:00. His final tally after 41 minutes of shooting? 500 -- on the nose!

Uncle Bryan! Aunt Elisha!

January meant lots of family visits, as Uncle Bryan and Aunt Elisha were able to come out from Nebraska. The kiddos loved having their aunt and uncle all to themselves-- and they were certainly happy to take them to Disneyland as well!

Bug the Goof

Bug has only just this fall discovered school-like settings and she LOVES them! Highlights of the week for her are Sunday School and the Monday nights she has MOPS. She's pictured here with a MOPS craft that she was so attached to that she screamed when Papa made her let go of it to go to sleep.
Bug is also getting pretty good at playing with Mugger. Play to her can be as simple as sitting in the recliner-- or as rambunctious as Mugger launching her off the leg rest as she slides down!
Bug is also quite the master of Found Toys, especially the Empty Box. The empty case of diapers can keep her busy all morning!
