It was a great day to be in DC!! Weather was perfect! So Abbey and her mom group friends decided to go to see the Cherry Blossoms in DC. We were kind of iffy on that day because it rained both days prior. But it was just beautiful on that day. We get to park along the river in across from the airport so the boys had lots of fun seeing the planes come and go and see trains too. We walked around the Basin and danced to the bands in front of the Jefferson Memorial.
I look at this picture and think..."Wow pretty flowers....." hahahaha
Mama's telling Clayton to imagine his Baba being very tall and handsome and how life would be different. It is very apparent that Brennan already knows the sales pitch and has totally given up.
"Would you like to make a donation to the college fund? Please no more Cheerios. Money would be nice."
It was nice that there was an area of many different Tulips where anyone can walk up to them and touch and feel them.
Mama being the phytology is teaching the boys about plants.
Mama tells the boys how the tulips would look like if we had some tulips at home. They will come out soon....
If it wasn't for the pretty flowers, I'd say mama might have other 'intentions' on the was she is squatting. Photo actually taken by Brennan - what do you think?
I love taking photos like this where you see the the dads are taking photos of their children and moms don't really care and just go about their business with other moms.
It's not easy to have a picture of our family together I tell you. But Photoshop brings families together, pictorially. However this is one of the photos that I not Photoshop'ed.
Brennan to Clayton: "Imagine what life would be like if we can swim"
Clayton: "I am going to find out"
Mama: "Not on my watch you don't"

"Good background...shadow kills it man" - Abbey
Finally a photo of Clayton..hehehe
Hahaha Da is getting Fat and Bald...
More love handles for Abbey....
*Just so everyone know, I love both my boys just as much. Brennan happens to like being infront of the camera as Clayton is not much interested.

10:15pm After driving home late for around 40mins, your wife annouced. "I am really tired." this mean, you have to put the kids to sleep and do all the laundary, about 4 loads by yourself before going to sleep.....will you do that?!
1-2am....finally finishing most of the laundary and it's time for bed...
3:59am just when you're snoring....your wife decide to wake you up....."my stomach and belly hurts, and my back is killing me......" will you ask her to turn to the side and give her some massages?
4:22am after 15-20 mins of massage, you notice she needs a drink of water. will you get out of you cozy bed?
Our family went to Cherry Blosoom on Sat, I was so tired. Sunday came and still exhausted. I had a bad stomache last nite and I would not forget how much DA loves me. He put the boys to sleep, cleaned the laundry. I woke him up at 4am and he volunteerily gave me massage. He even gave me a glass of water after that.
I am really grateful for my lovely husband. Da loves me so much......what can you ask more?! take a moment to think and appreciate your love ones. =)

It's 12:17am right now and I am sitting here ranting in my bed and there is nothing I can do or say to convince or deviate her from her determination. My wife has been a little paranoid a bit lately or thinking too much. I mean it's past midnight and I have to go to work tomorrow and she needs to take care of the kids. I mean what can't possibly get resolved that is so important that you can get it done tomorrow? She says she can't sleep b/c she thought she saw an ant in the car earlier today. She is right now outside in the 30 degree weather with a flashlight looking for the ant. I mean I've live in the DC area for twenty plus years and driven over 12 and have never seen any insects survived in cars. The DC area gets so cold and so hot that any creature living in the car will freeze to death or get cooked. Oh well nothing I can do to stop her.
Then earlier today she saw a black spot on Brennan's molar tooth on our way home from church. She says that he's got a cavity and I told her that it's the blueberries that he ate on Saturday. She was so serious that he got a cavity and was getting very personal how it would affect the rest of the tooth and how that tooth will need to be removed prematurely....etc...and of course use me as an example and how I didn't care of my teeth when I was younger(never gets old) So once we got home, without taking anything in, she took Brennan straight to her bathroom with his coat still on and stuck her electric toothbrush on him and brushed and brushed....finally it's cleaned and she realized that it's the blueberries.
12:28a-Yeap..she's still looking for the ant..run ant run....I mean I think she would have a better chance to win the lottery and struck by lightning than finding the ant in the middle of the night in the cold weather somewhere in the van. If the ant has any sense, which they are pretty dang smart, he's taken the food and hid himself and is probably sleeping pretty snugly in between a wedge or even have left the van and come in the house where is much warmer. But I shouldn't jinx myself b/c if the ant comes in, our house will be turned up side down for that one little ant.
12:32a-I've have enough time to re-read my rant several times and proofed it and spell checked it. This is probably one of the longest text posted I've had for many months and that its grammatically correct and without any misspelling. I would dedicate this post to all the blogs we've read that have so much text in them that once in a blue moon we can do the same.
12:37a-she's finally done; ant nowhere to be found. time to sleep

To have a egg hunt in our tiny little house would be crazy..but then of course Da went ahead and married Abbey...hahaha
In order to 'hide' the eggs around around our huge living room (10'x12'), the kids are put in the kitchen. This looks like a kiddie jail to me.
Ms. Pearl had to kill the baby doll and Bob to get all her eggs. Her facial expression pretends to be innocent but its the danger in disguise.
And in this picture....our huge living room consist of a wall next to green bag and another wall on the right. It didn't take the kids too long to take all but five steps to the left, right, back and front to find all the eggs but nevertheless they had an awesome time.
