The brown one is Flash and he is Mom and Monkey's puppy. When they first came home, Flash went straight to the football. They both like to play tug-of-war with our jump-ropes.

Guest Post ~ Happy 13 Birthday, Unicorn!

Hey there,

This is Unicorn's mom. I am taking over her blog today. Today, Unicorn turns 13 and I wanted to share with you what I posted on my blog this morning!

It is hard to believe that it has been 13 years since Unicorn made her "exciting" entrance into this world! I wish I remembered the day but, I was unconscious and having seizures due to eclampsia. She was born 7 weeks early via emergency C-section. I went to sleep Monday, February 28, 2000 and the next thing I know it is Thursday, March 2, 2000, I am in the hospital and no longer pregnant. Unicorn was born Tuesday, February 29, 2000 at 5:47 pm. She was 3 pounds 11 ounces and 16 inches long. We were both in pretty bad shape but, we pulled through!

Chick-fil-A School?!?!

Hello World!

On Wednesday, Mom took us to Chick-Fil-A to do our school work because a friend of hers died and Mom did not want to dwell on the sadness.

For Breakfast there I had a cinnamon roll and some of Moms mini hash browns.
While I was doing my Money Management course with Mom and reading, Monkey and Ladybug played in the play area and made friends.

When we all finished our work, Mom let us have a sundae or cookie. Monkey had a, right out of the oven, melted cookie and he was MESSY. Ladybug had a cookie sundae, and mom and I had brownie sundaes. That's what we had for lunch. It was neat because mom NEVER lets us have dessert for a meal!

On Friday we went to a park and we had lots of fun swinging on the swings and playing on the playground. We had lots of food and drinks there and lots of fun playing on the playground too.

 Ladybug and I are learning how to crotchet scarfs and I will be selling them to raise money for Girls Camp.

Here are some photos of this week:

What a Saturday!

Hello World!

On Saturday Daddy K, Monkey, Ladybug and I all went hiking and mountain climbing at North Mountain Park. We all had fun and we climbed a lot also.

We crossed the North Mountain Park bridge to the map area and went down the Nature Trail, Ladybug climbed the mountain after we passed four big wood posts and Dad, Monkey and I stayed down on the ground, when Dad K could not see Ladybug, he went up and found her. While Dad K was up there with Ladybug, Monkey and I were playing with the dirt and rocks.

While Dad K and Ladybug were trying to find a way down, Monkey tripped and hit his head on some rocks and he is okay but he has a cut and few bruises. When Dad came down he calmed me down, put Monkeys shirt on his head and carried him to the car. As Ladybug was walking towards me, some people stopped there music and came over to help, but we already got it figured out so they walked back to the place that they were at.
Then we got in the car and we talked to Monkey while Dad K talked to Mom about what happened. When Mom first answered the phone she said, "What happened? Is everything okay?" When we got home, Monkey got rinsed off and then Monkey and I sat on the couch watching shows and talking about what was going on in the show.
 
Also, this weekend, Monkey and I switched rooms. In the morning at 7:35 I checked on my siblings and Monkey said, "Is it morning?" I said, "Yes, It is morning." I opened the curtain and showed him that it was morning and he said, "Oh, Yay! Can I watch a show and drink some water and eat a tortilla?" While Monkey watched a show on the iPad and drank some water, Ladybug and I played Babysitting until it was time to go to Church. Monkey and Ladybug like sharing a room and I like having my own room again.

What a week!

Hello World!

This week mom taught us about the Tower of Babel, Egypt, Fairy Tales and Service. We got to color an Egyptian coloring page and a Tower of Babel coloring page. We also built our own Towel of Babel out of blocks while mom was talking gibberish to us trying to tell us to go criss-cross for the block Tower of Babel. While I was finishing the tower, Monkey and Ladybug were looking at the tower with scared faces. After the tower toppled I told Mom that I only had three blocks left and then she asked us to clean it all up.

Mom went to the Doctor and Monkey and I went with Grandma to Chick-Fil-A and Ladybug went to her friend's house. Ladybug played Star Wars with her friend at her friend's house and they had lots of fun. At Chick-Fil-A Monkey played on the playground and slid down the slide and pretended to drive the orange race car, he also pretended to fly the helicopter and while Monkey was playing in the Helicopter, I was reading my book. While we were all playing at different places, Mom was having surgery and she said it was not fun. When Monkey was all done playing, we went back to the doctor's office and picked Mom up, when we went in the car, Mom told us her story of the doctor appointment.

Then Dad came home Mom asked him to pick up Ladybug and when Ladybug came back with Dad, she asked me to play with ponies, but instead she told me what she did at her friend's house. Also, since Mom was not feeling so well some ladies from Church gave us food and we liked the food they gave us. Also, Ladybug and Monkey helped clean the pool. 

On Friday, I went to my Daddy P's house. When I came home from my Daddy P's house, Mom told me that there was a leak in her bedroom so Dad K put a towel and a cup on the floor to catch the drips Dad K also put a tarp on the roof next to the Air Conditioner metal box. Monkey and Ladybug also drew pictures of them Helping somebody. Ladybug drew a picture of cleaning the Church building with Dad K and Monkey drew a picture of him helping Dad K pick up trash and throwing it away.

Here are some photos of our crazy week:
