MATCH DAY!

Kids waiting for the ball to drop:)

Today was the day the little white envelope was passed out. I must say that although this whole ritualistic ceremonial stuff gets lost in my mind it did make the day very exciting. At about 11:50 they have ALL the students come up and get their little white envelopes and then at Noon exactly they sound the horn and everybody rips open their envelope and an uproar of people laughing, talking hugging, dialling as fast as they can on their cell phones and cheering. It was very similar to the ball dropping on Time Square. Without further adieu we matched at...............................

Swifty with his little white envelope!

So for all of you that wanted to see Ohio or things close too it you have one more year. In the future if seeing us is not enough of an incentive there is a beach pretty close to Birmingham..

Jenny Groberg said...: Serious? Anesthesia?? I'm totally shocked! I thought for sure he would be a pediatrician. That is so awesome!! So I'm assuming you won't have to move for the transitional year? Alabama huh? Totally cool. Was this your first choice? I want to hear all the details!; March 27, 2009 at 8:21 AM

and anesthesia is the #1 choice. I have never loved anyone more in my life than the guy with the drugs dialated to a 6.
Way to go, Swifty!

Philosophical phrases from the Bee's

After our power came back on KB very excitedly yelled "we have lightricity"

KB's favorite new phrases are... "are you thinking what I'm thinking", and "I don't have an idea about that". She is also really into people coming over on her designated time. All the way home from church she cried because she wanted a friend to come over (problem I didn't have enough dinner to share). I said well maybe we can call and see if they can come over tomorrow. KB's response "but I wont want them to play theeeeeeeen!" Oh what do ya do?

Out of the blue KB says "mom, say I one the arm" I hate to admit it took me longer than it should have to realize we were playing the "I 8 the arm" game. Anyway as we were playing, I told KB "I 2 the alligator", she cracked up and said I didn't achoo the alligator I coughed the alligator.

Yesterday I was sitting down, and unprompted, KB walked up to me and, pointing to my left eye said, "Daddy, that is your good eye." I replied, "Oh really?" She continued, indicating my right eye, "and that is your bad eye." She then spit in my "bad" eye and said, "Now I am getting your bad eye wet." I told her that if she spit on me again, I would have to look at her with my bad eye, and needless to say, a few seconds later, I was looking at her with the bad eye.

About a week ago, KB went to the bathroom and was talking to Swifty while she was going. This is what she said, "Dropping a load makes your tummy feel better, that is why I still have the coughs". I wasn't quite able to follow the logic behind her statement.

Keeping in mind KB was just told she could not watch a movie because it was Sunday, she said to me, "Mom sometimes it's not Sunday!"

Buster's New Tricks

Talks like Crazy, his favorite phrase is "No MAMA", he likes it so much he tries it out in different voices.

More new tricks... Buster can now bark like a dog (although it sounds more like Tim Allen's grunting on Home Improvement), bop his lips like a fish, growl like a tiger, say dayers, in reference to his big sis., he runs, and loves to tease us. He also says dace for me to dance with him. He must have things a certain way and until he talks better we are not quite sure what that way is. Hopefully we will know soon.
