WANTED... a nasty creature called 'Stinky the Monster'! He is shorter than dad, but taller than mom. He has one eye, is red with orange hands and green feet. This wretched beast has been terrorizing poor Avery from time to time during the night. Unfortunately, he seems to disappear once Dad comes looking for him, so we've never actually laid eyes on him. If anyone happens to come across him, be sure to let us know!
WANTED... Alesha Watts, for failure to pay highway tolls! Brave Alesha ventured out to the far country of Frisco, TX one day in search of the fascinating cultural phenomenon known as IKEA... and "far" it was indeed! It took her well over an hour to get there, as she tends to prefer the "scenic" route over the most direct route as provided by Kenny (aka Human Mapquest). However, Kenny's directions failed to mention that the route included a long stretch of toll roads, requiring you to fork out $1.00 every few miles or so. Having run out of cash, Alesha just kept on going and eventually made it home. We will keep you posted as to any jail time that Alesha will have to serve.
Alesha and Avery began Preschool at home this week. Avery is a great reader already but is learning some of the basic sound blends using her Hooked On Phonics Kindergaten curriculum. Thanks to Gram and Poppy for the materials. They also took a 'field trip' to the Fort Worth Zoo this week where they saw lots of animals, rode the train and the carousel. They even packed a picnic lunch and fed some birds watermelon.
In other adventures, Alesha told Avery they were going to the "Baby Store" when they were on their way to Babies r Us. Avery gasped and said, " Are we getting a real baby there?" I had to remind her that real babies came from the hospital but we were just picking out stuff for her brother. She was very, very excited and wanted to buy everything that day but settled on some Little Einstein band-aids instead. Her favorite item was the cool stroller that she will be able to stand on while Andrew rides in the front.
On Saturday, we went to a pool party at our apartment... here are some pics:
