Butt-Kisser and Butt-Head.

 Hannah literally kisses our butts before we go to work in the morning. 

We don't encourage it. She attacks you by surprise.

 

He's is so two right now and a bit of a butt-head.

He doesn't listen or come when asked. 

He just stands there challenging your authority.

 She uses snuggles and hugs as manipulation tactics to stay up later.

 He takes pleasure in annoying us and doing the opposite of what you want. 

They wore a sitter out badly enough that she couldn't get off the couch.

And I know someone who is scared to have kids because of our kids.

We wouldn't change them.

We like them as is.

4.

Happy Birthday Hannah Girl!

Your dad and I think you're spectacular.

Jared, Master of Design.

The Peapods. Guillermo, Jun, and Jared.

I'm so proud of you Jared.

You did it.

It's nice having a last name that starts with A.

Happy Mother's Day Lisa

If ever an anthropologist came our home to study our family they would observe a number on interesting things. These could be the field notes.

The two kids appear to be in control most of the time. Even though they are tiny they move quickly.

The two kids can often be seen sitting on the woman's lap at the same time.

The two kids play together and constantly seek approval from the woman.

The woman wakes up at early hours of the morning to take care of the kids.
I'm sure the man would wake up if he could hear them crying.

The woman changes a diaper at a rate of 2.5 per day. The man - 0.2 per day.

The woman prepares food regularly and the others are fed well.

The woman spends a great time interacting with the children.

The woman actively documents the lives of the kids and can often be seen with a camera in hand. She also has a blog where she shares her thoughts with the outside world.

The man is very handsome.

The woman is often seen reading books to the kids before bed.

The youngest child needs help with his speech and the woman often works with him.

The man appears like he spends a great amount of time in the gym.

The woman totes her children from place to place in a bike trailer.

Time spent outside the house appears to be important for the woman and children.

The man is a hermit. (But again a handsome one.)

Bedtime appears to be a daily struggle where the oldest child employs advanced stalling tactics.

The woman is often seen smiling and laughing with the children.

Photos of family members adorn the walls of the home.

Original artwork by the children also adorn the walls of the home. The medium is either pencil or marker. Some of it's quite good but most of it is crap.

The woman likes to move the thunder machine along the floor. (like alot)

At any given time the man can be seen cleaning the dishes.

The man and woman seem to enjoy watching a series of moving images on this thing called "a computer".

The man appear to have deep affection for the woman and tries to make her happy by posting thoughtful messages to her blog. He's been told she enjoys thoughtful messages.

Everyone in the house appears to be happy and healthy.

Happy Mother's Day Lisa.
Our kids and I agree, you are a terrific mom.
Thanks you.

Jared

Picture of The Month - May

After 10 minutes of yelling at them to stop licking the wall, I gave up and took a picture.

My kids are gross.
