Funny Bubs

Dear Aimee

Please tell Kiki I love her and we found her rings, and that we'll keep them safe till you drop by next. Hopefully now you have more excuses to come see us....and soon!!

Wiwi is a Duckie

I'm a soft, white and wobbly pumpkin

Pinkie and Green

Sing it with us!!

"Open

Give your hands a clap!
Open

Put them on your lap!
Creep them x4
Right up to your chin!
Open up your little mouth......
Go on and put them in!!"

Snuggle

Oi!

"Laughter does the heart right, like a cheery medicine." .....or however that saying goes

Smush

Playing with William...so much fun!
Oh Bubs we love you! You must stay with me forever! Shmooosh.



Wi: ahhh, too much love
T: Bubs you can try to run but you can't escape my love
There, Pinkie rescues Bubs from Tony's tight squeezes
and it's Tony's turn for smushes

Couldn't decide...

....which one to post. All her facial poses are so cute and self coached.
So, lets post all of them!!



Thank you Lena-san for the pretty face paint!

Kawaii Desho?

Here are our rock pets!
Used lotsa glue, lotsa yarn, lots concentration....
......toootally love the results!


And I must show you mine because I worked hard on it-no, she!- too! So much love and care went into my pet's construction, look at her, she looks up at me with big adoring eyes. "Thank you for rescuing me from the muddy riverside, and making my spikey dreadlocks so colorful" they seem to say. Aw..it's so happy I made it.

I am Alive, SITTING, and Champion

Excited about it too!

I am a Sickie Pink

It's Pinkie's turn for asthma. but hey, but those are nice long legs
Cinderellie always makes me smile....she's my favorite
Jelly is the asthma snack

Rightly

I read to Pinkie in a whisper a book that's called "Shhh, Baby Jesus is born" cuz in the book it says to "shhhh".
Pinkie: Paula, you don't have to whisper, the people are in the book, they're not really here.
oh...right


No, I have no idea where she gets it from.

I am a sickie Pooh

Asthma has gotten the best of me...Pala has now rooted me to the bed
but I still play with my favorite tea set....shh,disregard the Pinkie label...

Jelly daisuki!!

and as you can see, though my health is beaten, I'm not breakin! " Be strong peaceful warrior, be strong" My spirits still soar, thanks to the tea set.

This Girl of Ours.....

...is beautiful,
different,
goofy,
upside down,
full of character,

goofy some more,

adorably cute,
kina foolish,
....and just totally precious. (that's not to say that's all she is, oh no, she is so so so much more!)

SCORE!!

Ced, entertaining as usual.


I got the 3 oldest! 'Tis hard to get them in photos, I tell you. Almost gotta be sneaky about it.
I even got single shots!!
"Shane I think I lost one of my toes!!" S: "....wha..." *SNAP* yessss!!! whew, I pulled a fast one there!
Yes, I know you appreciate it dear family, getting photos of these once adorable little squishy-munchies -turned strapping young handsome lads is no easy task!

Love

This is love because he is allowing my foot to be so close to his head.
"Love is like oxygen"
"Love is a many splendid thing"
"Love lifts us up where we belong"
" All you need is love"


"All you need is love"

"All you need is love"

Days of Our Lives at the Park

too handsome....just too handsome for words


A man needs his space...and time to think to himself.

Gramps, oh Gramps

Happy Birthday Grampa!! Without you in our lives we would not be who we are today...quite literally! Thank you for all your jolly hugs, ticklie kisses, wise words of wisdom, encouragement, and for being the most wonderful Grampa we could ask for! We love you so so so so so sooooooo much!! Doodlidoo, Happy Birthday!

Now..I Wonder Why....

The 17th of September is a blessed day......every year somehow we remember being happy...somehow... It must be the first cool winds of Fall. yes, that's what it is. It begins to feel a little cool, but just enough to feel cozy with your sheets. Ah! There's always some sort of food memory in there as well.. and as you know, good food is the best happy pill for any! Well, at least for us. Good weather, good food.....and yes, we always sing! For that is what you do when you are happy. Oh! we feel a song coming on now!
Haaaaaaaaaaaaappy Biiiiiiiiiiiiirthday toooooooooooooooo youuuuuuuuuuuu.
You can't run from it Chibs! We will find you wherever you are and sing it from the depths of our soul. Or maybe just a birthday chat will do. WE LOVE YOU!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Haaaaaappy Birthday!!!

Ced, when asked what kind decoration he'd want on his cake: "Oh you know, the kind the grown ups have"



All prepped up for Ced's jolly day!


Complete with gifts from relatives in Niigata! ( The Noni box is not a coincidence! I think Gpa wants to fill our childhood memories with Noni products!)

" What's this?? an MP3 player???AND gummy head phones? nooooo....it can't be!! but it is!!! THANK YOU A.Chibi!!!"
Thanks Gma and Gpa.... keepin it real...
Sweet Chibs even got me a present for her birthday! Talk about love....More and more Chibi and Papa's tastes are overlapping...the vest has Papa written all over it...the writing on the package did too......hmmm....
"It's perfectly plain, with ALL the colors of the rainbow!" I can pull it off, don't you think Pops?

Fun in the Sun

Good Morning Mommy

Pinker

Jesus has given Pinkie the perfect curls!! I am sure you will agree!
Cryssy, she's becoming a little poser!



Here we are, in the middle of a play, "David and Goliath". The racket is the weapon, and the booster chair is the shield. Kids' imaginations are great! And guess who Goliath is?? To those of you who guessed the heavily armed and pink one, wrong!!
"David" strikes a pose.

.....no wonder David won

Jyanjajaaaan!

Spent an evening with Claire Bear
alala....look what we did
...do you like Mommy and Daddy?
I found it rather pleasant....
...for as long as the knot stayed.

Its Winter Today!

We've been seeing signs of winter in early September.
Here it is! This little bundle came walking out in a slightly chilly morning with 3 shirts and 3 pairs of pants on...not to mention the double socks and scarf.... Alec sure knows how to dress warm!

Jonah

Pinkie woke up one day and said, "Jonah, it's time to get up. " Right at that moment I woke up. Pala thought it was funny so she said "Jonah, its time to change your pants" I obediently took off my pants to change. Then Pala said, "Jonah it's time to go" and I said, "No, I go balcony". Sometimes when people ask if I'm a boy I say, " I'm Jonah" . I think I like that name.

Handsome Little Man

Dear Mommy,

Love, Alec

Tony and Ryo

cute stuff

We've Been Apainting!!

Isn't it pretty Mommy? I made a black apple!
I'm sending you love Mommy, with my painting and my new camera smile. heehee, did you notice? My shirt is on backwards.

Tony has a.....

...CRUSH!!! This usually very shy child who usually takes days to warm up to new faces, wouldn't leave this girl's side since the very first day she came to visit. As you can see, he's quite friendly with her and when she's not around says, " ere's Wrika" (where's Rika(that's her name)). A little sad you're leaving tomorrow Rika. Pinkie, and surely Tony will miss you. Wherever and anywhere you go, we hope you stay happy and fun, the way we know you to be!

Pinkie with her Pinkie

Yoisho yoisho
this is a perfect sized bicycle for me!
I am very proud to say it's mine. Thank you Mommy and Daddy.

White and Blonde

Tony's New Camera Smile

For My Aunties

White Boys

Cute Little People

Pinkie still can't get enough of the baby walker.
Thank you A. Chibi for my pink overalls.

Siblings

Wouldn't you agree? There's nothing cuter then a pack of siblings.

What are the Sounds of Summer?

hmm.....fans, the buzzing of mosquitos, shouts of " I'm soo sweaty!", happy squeals and splashing water from the pool, slurping melting popsicles, and the loud "meemeeing" of semis!!!!
The kids have a great new hobby: Collecting the semi's "baby clothes"(their shells).

You Love Me?

I love you too.

Growing Up, Being all Handsome and Stuff....

Bubs is...

..nearing 4 months old.
A smiley thing he is, ready to smile at anyone who will smile at him.

Pinker Bell's Day! pt 2

It's almost like Christmas, only it's my birthday!
Thank you for the lovely box Grandpa, Grandma, and A. Chibi!
We like the clothes!! I have a feeling Mommy's excitement is double mine. I will model them soon!
Want to know the key to my heart?? it is this!! Grandpa sure knows!
Cakes U. Gaga?? Me oh my, you complete my day!
That's right U. Gaga, you're four. I'M four.

Pinker Bell's Day!

It's finally my day!! I've been waiting for it all year!
I like Kitty chan. Leila, Kiki, and Carole got me some Kitty goodies. Thank you Amy, Leila, Kiki, and Carole for all the presents!!

So happy to be hanging out with girls!! I hardly ever see girls my size at my house.


I'm so glad they're enjoying themselves...espcially Bradyn.

so much fun! This is why we have birthdays!
Thanks for having me Mommy. Without you I wouldn't be celebrating any birthdays. oh! and Daddy too!

Shirt too small

Gaga once got me a Little Mermaid shirt for my birthday...Pinkie wears it now, fits her about right.
but not before Alec wore it for a whole summer! and with pride too! because it was blue and a big person's shirt, but now he will not be fooled.
I wonder if I'll get Pookie to wear it...I'm kidding Cesco!

Some

it's cool...T-shirt tucked into my undies

Here We are Again...

...in Kitty Land.
Was too fun, had to go back for seconds!
Everything was perfectly pink for a little girl with the name Pinkie.
I enjoyed myself too, trotting about the adorable Kitty House
But somehow, holding Kitty's hand was somewhat embarressing.

Together

yeah! I'm a man, I'm goina climb this thing....
yeah...it's pretty tough climbing this thing, gotta be a man.
Hold on brothers! Here I come!!
YEAH!!! Who's the man!!
--Wiam, loving the tenderness and attention







still tough as ever, trying to get a shot where everyone looks at the cam.
