Science Project

In spite of having a horrible cold and the stomach flu this week, Meisje and I were able to schedule a day of FUN!

Iva -- my bestest girlfriend after my family has two delightful children, who think of me as their "Auntie". It is a position I cherish and I spoil them every chance I get. Yesterday, I had a chance to fulfill my Auntie duties. Kiana (now 10), had a science project to do. Since her Brother Deion (11 yrs old) had one due at the same time, Iva turned one project over to me. YAY!! Yesterday Kiana and her cousin Fa'aesea (also 10) came over to take care of the science project.

We blew up bottles of Diet Coke with Mentos. We also painted Pumpkins, borrowed a dog playmate -- my Aunt Geniece's cute Zuzu, watched a movie, and the girls picked out a dress for Meisje to wear for Halloween. Whew! I was thoroughly exhausted after the day was done.

How can you deny me when I beg like this?

Meisje loves her bath time. She likes my bath time too. Actually, she likes any form of warm water. Once she jumped into my friend Sharon's Hot Tub, and enjoyed the water there. Here is a picture of the "water bugg" begging to jump into the water filled bath last night.

Back-Pain

Ouch!!! All week long, my back has been hurting. I pulled a muscle on the right of my sacrum. Today it got so annoying that I made a little song for it. Think of the 1960's Batman TV show theme song. Da-na-na-na-na-na-na-na Back-Pain! Back-Pain ... Back Pain!
