Bedtime Stories

Sunday, September 5th, 2010

This is what Julia drew after watching Bedtime Stories:

“Those would be big on a cow.”

Numbers

Saturday, August 21st, 2010


Julia drew these numbers getting married. She has the bride’s maids and someone playing the piano…all very cute. Then, you turn the page over, and on the other side, she drew all of them being eaten by a dragon:

That’s my girl!

The Kids…in 3D

Saturday, April 17th, 2010


I liked all of the photos I took of the kids in their 3D glasses, but this is my favorite because it looks like a band photo.

Harper’s Journal

Friday, January 1st, 2010

We started a journal for Harper and Julia wanted to illustrate it. This was the first page that Julia did:
mmm
Now that’s just inappropriate.

KISS

Julia’s friend had a birthday party and everyone was supposed to dress up like rockstars. The whole idea was inspired by Hannah Montana and Julia is not a fan. So, I suggested we paint her face like the band KISS. She, of course, has no idea who KISS is, but went along with the idea anyway. I asked Julia what her friends thought of her face painting and she said, “Well, the adults all seemed to like it.”

The boys felt left out, so we painted their faces as well. Conrad wanted a blonde beard. We couldn’t talk him out of it.

Owbama

I try to keep the blog apolitical, but I couldn’t resist. It was completely unsolicited.

Just so it’s clear, this blog endorses neither political party and the only political opinion Julia has offered is that that maverick Palin lady is pretty.

Learning Karate and Japanese

I have a really funny story to go along with this photo, but I can’t tell you. Sorry.

Julia’s Joke

Monday, May 25th, 2009

Claire told Julia her manners were impeccable. Julia told us she wanted to make a joke. She said there is a woodpecker who saw a tree that looked impeccable. She’s six. That’s a pretty good joke. Is Julia growing up? Are all of her future jokes going to make sense? This is so sad.

Today, Julia drew a cheeto.
