Friends

Audric's friend came to visit. They love each other so much and were sad when she

had to go back home.

Pee spot

Pee spot #1

We have a couple more places to add to Audric's unusual places that he has relieved himself.

Imagine... the Animal kingdom has just opened and everyone is going toward the safari ride. You think asking him five times if he has to go pee before a ride he really just didn't have to go. Not until we are the next to get on the ride does Audric yell out that he has to go NOW. There's no where to go at this point. the line if we left now would be hours long. We get on the ride and he continues to cry and yell. Luckily we were the only ones in the back (that could hold about six people). Because Audric, dropped his pants and let it all out on the floor of the jeep. The ride was so bumpy that there wasn't a spot on the whole floor that was untouched.

Pee Spot #2

Imagine... the Magic Kingdom is now closed and everyone is leaving the park. We are on this large ramp going up to the mono-rail. Not a bit of room around us is empty. Audric wakes up... To find that he has to pee NOW. By that time we are at the holding gate waiting for the doors to open and get in. The Mono-rail is fast but this time the doors don't open and we are stuck waiting for it. There's no bathroom, I asked. We are now at the top and if Audric pees off the ramp then everyone would see. So I check the bag and find the portable potty we used when Audric was potty training. I wonder how many people saw Audric drop his drawers and sit in the stroller going pee.

So far nothing beats the cup pee spot!

Halloween

Tim's work had a Halloween party and Audric got to throw a pie in Tim's face. Julie would have no part in throwing pie at her daddy. We all helped decorate Tim's office. It turned out really good but not as good as others.

We have discovered that Julianna likes sticker and that we shouldn't leave them lying around.

When we had lunch with Tim, at his work, Julie found this big ice cream cone bank and couldn't keep her mouth off of it. I guess she thought if she kept licking she would break through the outer shell?

Hansel and Gretel

Hansel, Gretel, the woodsman (father) and the witch.



Audric wanted to write a letter to his friends in Japan about Halloween and he explained it so well I'm just going to type it up for everyone to read. Here it goes...

I got a B-2 Bomber with all my candy I gave to my mom (so they don't eat all the candy we make a trade). I was Hansel and Julianna was Gretel. We went trick-or-treating, that was my favorite part! I passed out candy. I saw a scary man that had a scary bone costume, I didn't get scared but Julie was scared by the scary bone head costume. We put spider webs on our house and two big, big spiders, pumpkins, a scare-crow, fog, flashing lights, Fake bloody sheets, and a glowing light (black light). When I went trick-or-treating I had my pumpkin bucket and I would say Trick-or-treat and then I would say "Danke Shane" (thank you in German). Hope you had a good Halloween.

AUDRIC

Too cute I thought. It's funny typing it out because writing it by hand took for ever and took up a whole page. I love computers.

One of Julie's cute moments.


I love that I can tell them to go brush there teeth and it's the only time they work together and don't fight.



What a waste of a good apple (the fruit).




I'm teaching myself how to make balloon animals, FUN Fun Fun!

Williamsburg

We had so much fun on our free vacation to Williamsburg, VA. We got to ride a fairy(the kids and my first time), Visit Colonial Williamsburg, and go to Busch Gardens. The kids learned some hard lessons this trip. Audric learned that you don't always get what you want when he cried at a nice restaurant that he wanted katsup with his pizza and they didn't have any. Hope to wait his turn in line and that not everyone is nice. A girl in front of us heard him say he wanted to sit on the orange side of the ride in row 6 so she told her parents that's where she wanted to sit. She was mean to him the whole time in line. He was so upset but we worked it out and got to ride in row 6 the next turn. Audric learned you don't run off without a parent or you might get lost. I couldn't find him for about what seemed like forever, and found him on a rope net a hundred feet above me. He got to sit out from some rides while Julie did them alone. Audric wasn't scared of any of the rides which surprised Tim and I. He loved the high swings. Julie was good and would try each ride at least once, she liked bumper car but not the high rides. The kids worked together most of the time which was nice. And some how we got out of there with only two $1.50 Elmo Straws and that's it. Lunch and Dinner did cost about $30 each but it was really good food.

Howdy!

This is a picture of Audric last year October. I thought it went well with the title which has nothing to do with what I'm going to write about. Tim and I started a new Stearman Family rule. If you fart you say "Howdy"! That way everyone knows what's coming. I guess they do it in the plane when they fly. It has become the funniest thing. Out of no where Audric will yell Howdy or if we fart and forget Julie will say Howdy for us. It keeps us laughing.
