From "Growing Up With Two Sisters"

Chapter 3- Training Undies

Don't ever let your sisters pick out your undies!

Sunday Water Day!!!

The Coco-man Cave

Someone has discovered to benefits of the bathroom. 

It's the most quiet, alone time he's had in weeks!!!  He might never leave. (Still no success at potty training, though!)

Homemade Pizza Time

So we here in BY Universe have grown a lot of matoes recently. Buckets of matoes. Boatloads of matoes   You get the picture. 

We just needed something to do with them. Then the MQ (will try out new name of Master Queen for the DQ. Since there hasn't been any D for a good couple of years) comes up with an idea. Homemade pizza!

Awesome idea!  We love pizza!

So we picked all the ripe matoes, and cooked them down to make a sauce. 

Then we went to grocery store to get supplies. 

Then we picked out our ingredients for each pizza. 

Sometimes it was tough to save the toppings for the pizza. 

Then we wait!!

Then we're ready to eat!!!

However, after this Herculean effort, no Kizzle wanted to eat!  Much to the MQs shagrin, and to the Editors gustatory delight!

Needless to say we will not be reproducing this any time soon!

Alas

Harvest

Early 'Mato harvest!  Plus onions. 

Yum yum 

Another Sunday

Another attempt at the beach!!

We might actually survive this thing!

Surviving the Rain

Playing "school"

Kemper was a princess teacher!  Unfortunately, her students wouldn't pay attention and sit still. 

Almost like a real class!

Piggy-tailed Cuteness

We can't forget about the Mila!!!

Poor Hamilton

Hiding out from the chaos and potty training!!!

Eating a Burger!

Play by play...

"Oh... Hamburger"

"Num num num"

"Oh oh oh. Num num num"

"Ooooooh. Ahhhhh!  Meat!"

(Mila-"what is that silly boy doing")

Drunk on the burger...

"Whatcha lookin at?"

Evolution

Once upon a time, we lived like this ...

Slowly we have grown, to the point where it was time to leave our high chairs. 

And start a construction project!

To form the next evolution of BabyYarnoz. 

However, the more things change ....

BabyYarnoz Yoga - The Kids Book!

So, the other day, Mo took Kemper food shopping while Daddy cleaned the house. (Twizzles were napping)

Turns out food shopping, also meant toy shopping!!!

Mo got KP a new book as well. 

This on might be a problem for The Editor. 

"Daddy, you will do Yoga!!!"

This is KP helping The Editor do a pose called "the Butterfly"!!!

This is The Editors subsequent pose called "The Groin"!

And , last but not least, The Editors final yoga pose "Dead Daddy!"

Thanks Mo!

Checking in at the orthodontist

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

Under Construction

The reboot is coming!!!

A Salute to Our Tiny Dancer

While we are working through some technical difficulties with my computer (which has most or all our recent photos), here is a supremely cute pic of our little Rapunzel

Guest Blogger: Flat Stanley!

Hello BabyYarnoz Universe.

My name is Stanley.  I would like to thank the Editor for allowing me to write and post on his amazingly wonderful blog.  It truly is the cutest, funniest blog I have ever read!  I am definitely a subscriber now! 

I was sent to Wilmington, NC by Ella McIlwain and her class in Tampa, FL.  Thank you Ella and Ms Anton for allowing me to come and experience southeastern North Carolina.

 

As you can see from the map, it is a fair distance from Tampa.   When I arrived, I was greeted warmly by the elder sister, Kemper.  She was very excited to see me, and took me everywhere.  She even let me play with her twin siblings, Mila and Court.  They were lots of fun too.  We did lots of things around their house, including read, color, play games and go for walks.

 

 

 Hamilton the dog liked me too... I think!

Wilmington is pretty close to the beach, so we could have gone any time.  However, it was too cold and windy for most of the time I was here.  Plus, I'm paper, so I don't think it is a good idea I got wet! 

 

 

Being close to the water, Wilmington is a pretty nice little town.  Lots of people come here to visit, and be tourists.  It is one of the major shipping ports in NC, so there are lots of boats.  We went downtown once, where the Cape Fear river runs through downtown.  It was nice to see the boats and all the people.

I got to pile into the Yarnoz' minivan, which is the main mode of transportation for all of these crazy kids!  Since they are so close in age, they all have to have carseats!  Do you guys have to sit in carseats too?

This time of year here in Wilmington is really pretty.  All the trees and flowers wake up and are super pretty.  Wilmington has a big festival every year to celebrate this.  It is called the Azalea festival!  I got to see that too.

(Unfortunately, the Yarnoz' forgot to bring their camera with us to take photos.  It seems it is hard enough to not forget the kids themselves!!!)

 

Well I'm having so much fun here, I can't stand it...  I am not sure I can come back!

 

 

 

Take Care,

 

Stanley
