Science Center 2009

Took the boys to the California Science Center for a day of fun.

They had a blast and here are the pictures to prove it.

We ate lunch in the rose garden and the boys took some cute pictures. Look quick cause it about two seconds they will be screaming at each other.

This picture cracks me up cause if you look really close Parker is actually holding a butterfly at gunpoint with a Lego toy he brought and Coco's innocence is slowly disappearing.

The boys did this awesome hands on about the brain and how it affects the way your body moves. They had to catch this ball and then try again with these crazy goggles on that messed with their vision. When they had the goggles on they would literally try to catch the ball with a 3 second delay. Funny to watch plus the goggles are key.

Cohen called this listening to the wind

SICK IN SPRING

Spring pictures are her and they are deceiving. Look how happy and well these kids look. It was a "my bad" day for Mom. I went shopping for these Boys to Men Easter outfits earlier in the day while both the boys were in school. 

I picked up Parker and we went over to the park, by the way it was pretty hot outside. Cohen is on antibiotics for double ear infections, but was seemingly recovered. Cohen kept saying "my tummy hurts" during the photo shoot.

 OK, here is how it is when you get both your kids clean enough to take pictures and have enough energy to take them some place with ducks and water and try to convince them to sit still, smile and look at you. IT IS GONNA HAPPEN and they WILL look happy about it. 

I kept saying "a few more pictures baby" I thought he was having an upset tummy due to the antibiotics. 

Well we get home and later that evening my Mom came over for a bit and he literally projectile's all over her. Now, the funny part is if you read on to the next recent post you will see a picture of my Mom with baby crap all over her. She just can't catch a break. 

I felt like such a Mommy Dearest for making him smile and look like he did not want to puke. Look at the picture below poor sick baby.

brave funny face

Oh my gosh he's gonna blow

Happy Easter from the sickie Stockbridges

Ode to Falcon Ave.

My sister is moving soon and I will miss seeing her everyday 7 min apart clocked

Now it will be 45 and sad

can't wait for built in BBQ's, skate park days, swimming, tennis matches, inter-net play dates and the 5th bedroom

This is why we have Tutu change all the diapers!!!!

"Mom you look like crap"

The funny thing is NO one was helping her. I ran to get the camera and my sister was pointing and laughing. You can't see, but it is literally dripping off her elbow.

Tee Pee for my bung hole...um enough said

Coco and Rocky Road what a pair

This is a Saturday in the Stockbridge backyard. I turned around for two seconds and here was Cohen and let's just say the dog also needed a bath.

I LOVE this picture! I have no idea what he was doing, but he looks so deep in thought.

Cohen had a Mommy's appreciation Day at his pre-school the other day and it was ADORABLE. He was chosen to hold the m in Mommy and sing me a special song. He was so proud of himself so, YES I cried tears of joy.

Parker's teeth are finally growing in and they are abnormally LARGE. Maybe his face will grow.

All the kids are getting SO big

Here is my Mom with all her Grandbabies

Winter Tahoe trip Feb 09

Here we are in all our glory. We took a winter trip to North Shore and had a blast! Enjoy more Stockbridge family memories.

This one plays a crafty game of Go Fish you never know what he's gonna pull!

Me and Mr. Cohen with the creepy crawling bear that walks arond growling. Needless to say it is a cabin favorite.

Andy's Dad's excellent craftmanship

Andy has these wonderful memories of going to the cabin as a boy and this is a memory that is pretty cool... His Grandfather was a traveling man and every time he took a plane ride he collected those little bottles of booze. Well, over time he lined the Kitchen on little shelves with his eclectic collection. I am so ecstatic that all of these memories and traditions of times spent here are being passed to new minds and souls. It makes me full of happiness.

This my friends is the famous Tahoe Stash. Andy works VERY hard to look pornish on our family vacations. Eat your heart out Ron Jeremy.

These photos explain my children so well. Some where in the world there are scared children needing to be saved by the plastic, gun toting pajama duo and Captain Porn Stash.

Ok, so this is AWESOME! Cohen was finally big enough too. 

What is a little winter vacation without some hot Coco with Coco?

This basically just proves I was there and can still board

Look at my baby 

The WONDERFUL Tahoe Cabin

Snow angels are a MUST!

By the way just to get them in all this gear by the car took us 30 minutes then have you ever seen a 3 year old walk in ski boots? Another 20 just to get from the parking lot to the mountain. LOTS of whining, crying, complaining and just basic discomfort...oh and the kids? That was a whole other story.

Price of ski rentals $500

Price of food $200

Price of Gas $250

Mental anguish PRICELESS
