Disneyland in July

In July we went to Disneyland and they have an Indiana Jones story thing where the Aladin story place is usually. So we decided to go, especially since Jamie loves "Indy Jones". Well, we stood in line, then we filed in and choose some seats in the shade. Then all of a sudden Jamie realizes that kids are sitting on the carpet up front and he asks to go down there. So Scott takes him down and seats him right up front. He sat there and listened to the man from Disneyland tell the kids what they need to do tohelp out this lady and Indiana Jones. We were kind of surprised at how well he was sitting and listening...until the lady came out! All of a sudden, whenever the lady came close to him, he stood up staring at her and if she walked away he

would follow her until one the Disneyland people asked him to sit down! It was sooo funny (in fact it was mostly the only entertaining thing about the show :)). Then when "Indiana Jones" came out he did the same thing. It was so cute. The poor Disneyland people. He was the only kid following them around and staring at them. So up top is some cute pictures of us and the kids, I love how Finn looks at Daddy, he even says "Dada" when he sees Scott for the first time in a while, and sometimes kind of hops up and down! He sure loves his Daddy. And a picture of me and Jamie.

Down here is a picture of Jamie before the show started, then a picture of the Disneyland lady chasing him to get him to sit down and then him seeing "Indiana Jones"! Is he funny or what???

Sea World

We went to Sea World in the middle of August. We had a fun time, except for Finn who was sick and teething. Poor baby, he was not a happy camper. We stayed at a hotel called The Dana on Mission Bay and all the funiture in the room was too tall for him to climb up, like he had just learned to do at home on the couches and chairs, so he was very cranky about that as well! Plus he is a boy who loves his normal routine and so when we screw it up by taking him somewhere and he doesn't get to sleep in his own bed, he doesn't function very well. Unlike Jamie, who could miss naps and go to bed whenever and he's fine! Which is funny because he doesn't like to have to take naps or go to bed at home :) Amazing how differently God made them! Makes me excited to see what the next one will be like! Jamies out with Daddy right now and Finn is taking his beloved nap, so I took the oppurtunity to do some laundry and clean the kitchen. Then I thought I would post and put up the slideshow since I'm not too tired yet today!

I'm back!!!!!

Well, I just got over a headache that I had for 5 days straight so I'm feeling pretty good and I had a minute, so I thought "I know, I'll actually post a blog entry!!!" I tried a week ago or so, but the one day I had the time and energy and no one yelling or whining or crying at me and the internet went down!!! AHHH!!!!! :) So here I am! And here is a picture of Jamie from about 1/2 hour ago. I just cut his hair tonight since it was getting sooo long. Here is a picture of Finn from a couple days ago. He's running around and climbing everything. It is crazy to see him climb up on the couch and turn around and sit down! So cute, especially if he is next to Jamie. They are both getting so big. It is so fun (most of the time!) to have a conversation with Jamie and he actually understands what I'm saying and I can mostly understand what he is saying! He new annoying habit is after I say something he says "huh?" Drives me nuts! I even asked the dr if he had an ear infection, but she said they are fine! Finn makes noises and says mama dada, he can even mimic what you are saying if he's in the mood! Jamies potty training is going very slowly. He just has no motivation, even when we tell him what he can get or give him candy or stickers. I'm not sure what to try, especially since I'm not home during the day. I'll try to put up all the pictures that I have missed posting the last month or so, especially Finn's birthday and our trip to San Diego, where we had a really fun time. I'll post the rest soon!!

Disneyland

On Thursday I had a luncheon at work, so I got off at 1:15 and Scott usually gets off at 2:30 unless he has to work overtime, so we headed off to Disneyland when he came home. They have a new toy story ride that we wanted to check out and luckily the wait was only 45 minutes :) We had fun on the ride, it is a fair style ride where the car takes you to various screens where you shoot at toy story theamed games with a virtual shooter that is 3-D. I got 107,100 points! Scott got over 119,000 and Jamie got 10,000. Finn didn't get anything becuase he had to sit inbetween Scott's mom and I, but he was very good and seemed to enjoy the sights even though he wouldn't wear the 3-D glasses! After that we walked around and ate some food and headed over to Disneyland. We went on Pirates and then watched Fantasmic. It was weirder than I remembered. Jamie enjoyed it. Then we went to the tram but it seemed like it would take forever so we decided to walk back to the parking structure. I blame it on momentary insanity! We were so tired and my feet hurt so bad! But we made it back. All in all it was a fun day!! Here is a cute picture of Jamie intently studying the map and a very cute one of Daddy and Finn wearing there 3-D glasses :)

Ha Ha! I did it :) 6 posts in June too!

Here is a cute picture of Jamie on his slippy slide. He played with his blast off car tonight with daddy and had lots of fun. Finn was very cranky since it appears he is now getting 2 more teeth up on the top, poor kid! He had 2 teeth forever and now he has a bunch all coming in at once.

Finn's Teeth

Well, Finn's top teeth finally came in last Sunday, the 22nd. They are some big teeth! Very cute :) Now he is working on one on the bottom. Jamie didn't want to be left out, so he told me he had 9 teeth. He counted them himself! (He actually has

16) Jamie also wanted me to type his tongues name, whatever that means! He also said Cats eat those and those and those and those. He is very silly! Like birds eat worms. Birds wear shoes and walk home. Birds walk like and eat worms all over the place. He also wanted me to say Blue and Steve from his Blues Clues show.

Jennies wedding

My little sister got married yesterday! It was quite a day, especially trying to keep a 3 year old and a 1 year old entertained and be matron of honor! But they both did very well (and I think I did as well :)) And Jennie married Ben and gave up the hard to spell name Styffe for the much easier Davis. I still remember when my uncle Glenn asked me if I would hyphenate my name, I replied and be Melissa Styffe-Schweitzer, I don't think so! But I love my new name, I've had it for 4 years now! I better get a move on, since I posted 6 entrys in May and April and only have 4 now for June, and the month is almost gone. Working full time really cuts into my blogging! Jamie was the ring bearer (Finn was supposed to be too, but he decided the kitchen at the church was more interesting than a room full of people) and did very well. Since mommy had the idea to give Uncle Ben a superman sucker and tell Jamie to give Ben the pillow and he will give Jamie the sucker! It worked :) Jamie was told that if he was good for the wedding he would get a blast off car. Which is something he saw on tv that he has wanted for a long time. It is about 30 inches long and you put water in a tank and pump it full of air to create pressure, then you hit a lever to release the car and it "blast's off" getting everying wet. Jamie loves it! The funny thing is that after the rehersal dinner he said "ok, Jennies wedding over, me good, lets go get blast off car!" Then yesterday morning he said "mommy me no want you to get married" all sad. I said "Honey, mommy's not getting married, I'm already married to Daddy, aunt Jennie is getting married!" We went to Ben's house today to watch the newlyweds open presents and Ben's brother Patrick let Jamie see his legos, so Jamie found his new best friend, at one point I went in to check on him and they were shooting a giant nerf gun with suction cup darts at the mirrored closet! Jamie was having the best time! He now wants to show Patrick his blast off car. Jamie told Jennie, "Jennie, you not know about blast off car."! He is so funny!
