I am Dying of Boredom

Well I am sick of lying in bed, sewing,and drawing pictures!  I am sick so I could not go to school today.  I wish I could of gone to school because it is much more fun than being stuck at home.  But at least I have a lot of stuff to amuse myself by.  I hope  you like my new blog post!

Life At Home

It starts when you wake up in the morning and you have to get dressed, eat breakfast, and go to school.  At school, all you ever do is learn.  But sometimes, learning can be fun.  When you get home, you play and hear the baby whining.  You play outside - for example, swing on the swings, climb on the jungle gym, and get tired.  Once you get tired, Mom insists that you do your homework.  Dinner is almost the best part of the day. I'll describe it: a delicious meal that is usually made by your mother and you talk about your day to your father.  After dinner, you brush your teeth, put on your pajamas, and go to bed.  That is pretty much my usual day besides Tuesday because I have dance class. By the way, I'm glad to see you reading my blog! 

Finally, Selah came out of the hospital!

Selah was in the hospital for about two weeks.  But luckily we got to see her while she was in the hosptial.  Do you know what I wonder?  I wonder if Selah had a good time or a bad time?

By the way, I am sorry I have not been blogging much but you know that I needed to be taking care of Selah.  I also have bad news.  I still do not know how to type.  Talk to you a different time.  Got to go.

Brush Real Estate

Today we had lunch at my grandparents house.  We scootered for a while.  Then it was time to go home.  When we got home we wanted to play a game .  So we thought about what we wanted to do.  Grandma [Karen Schwan] had given us Real Estate cards.  So we decided to pretend that we were Real Estate agents.  We pretended that we had clients and that we had our own computers and phones.  My client was from Mexico and Arianna's client was from China.  But we could not really speak Chinese.  We also went to the movie theaters [Mom's TV and bedroom] and had dinner at a fancy restaurant [ our normal dinning room table ].  I have to say being a Real Estate agent is pretty FUUUUNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Crazy Hairstyles

I did not have a lot to do this evening  so, I had to find something to do.  I said to myself I am going to have better luck upstairs so I had better get moving.  So I go upstairs and I find Selah [ my younger sister] dressing Livia up [my second to youngest sister]. I thought I would help.  So I said to Selah that I would do Livia's hair.  I braided her hair and put some clips in.  And it looked fabulous.  Selah also put make-up on her such as funky eyeliner, a lot of eyeshadow, and Mother's lipstick. 

Another hairstyle I did was another braid in Mom's hair.  That was what gave me the idea to post a new blog post.  Back to Mom's hair - once I did it Ma said it was a very good braid and I finally got the hair tie in the right place.  I felt really happy about how good I am with hairstyles.  I'm glad I got to post tonight.  Hope you're enjoying my blog!!

Valentine's Day

A valentine from my sister.

 
On Valentine's Day I went to dance class.  Our dance teach made us write a essay about how much we love our parents.  Mine was pretty long.  We played a few games.  Then mom came to pick me up and we went to my grandparents house.  There we ate pizza and a special drink. 

We also got to watch "Swiss Family Robinson". It is a great movie about a family that was shipwrecked and they had to find land .  They find land and later on build a tree house.  The mother and father wonder if the land they are on is a island or just a big piece of land .  So, they sent their oldest sons on a boat to do research on the island.  While they were on the island, they found the captain of a ship and his granddaughter that was captured by pirates.  The boys untied the granddaughter and took her with them and the pirates chased them through the jungle.  The boys, Fritz and Ernst, thought that the granddaughter was really a boy until they had fought over which direction to go; her hat fell off and they realized she was a girl named Roberta.  Later on, they help a zebra get out of quicksand. They found their way home on Christmas Eve.  The pirates come again, but the Robinsons are prepared for them and they attack.  Roberta's grandfather returns with one of his biggest ships and scares off the pirates and bombs their ship.  Ernst gets his dream and gets to go to a university, and Roberta, Fritz, Frances (the little brother), and the mother and father all stay on the island.  I think this is one of the best movies I have ever seen! 

Clarice Bean

Clarice Bean:  Don't Look Now is the book that I am reading.  I like this book because the author who wrote it is so funny and creative.  She inspires me to write more and she gives me ideas.  I am hoping that one day I could write a book!!  Now I will tell you a little more about the book.  It really is a series of books that I got for my birthday from my Mom.  The book is about a girl named Clarice Bean and her life without her best friend.  Clarice Bean is from Great Britian.  Betty Moody, her friend, moved to San Francisco because her mom got a job there.  After summer is over, she has to go back to school planning on getting a new teacher.  But, instead she gets her old teacher that is cruel and mean, Ms. Wilberton.  A new kid named Clem Hansson seems to be nice to everybody in the beginning, but really isn't very nice after all.  I don't want to spoil it for you, so if you ever read the book you can find out yourself what happens.  Because I don't know what happens, but I'm close to the end of the book.  So, then I'm going to finally going to see what the conclusion of the book is.  I can't wait to finish the book!

Nothing to Say

  I  do not have a lot to say today.  But I can tell you that I have not been feeling well.  Today was not as delightful as I would like it to be because we had a substitute and I wanted to go home. GOOD BYE!!!!!!!!!!!

Christmas Day

Christmas morning was so fun.  We were at my Bama and Abuelo's house in Oregon.  First thing in the morning I woke up, Selah and me looked in our stockings and they were stuffed.  The first thing I pulled out was a word search.  It was not long before I took out a book, sand art, and a paddle ball.  There were a few more little things at the end of the stocking with an orange at the tip.  Next, we went downstairs to have breakfast and were waiting for the parents to finish their breakfast so that we could open presents.

 When we got in the living room, there were presents hidden all around the room.  I found mine in the back corner and it was in a bag that had monkeys on it, which I love.  It was a pretty big bag!  And when it was my turn to open my present, I was trying to cut the ribbon with scissors and said, "Forget this!  I'm just going to tear the bag open!"  And it was what I was really wanting for Christmas - a dolphin pillow pet.  I also got a bag that you design yourself from our friends from church and  a beautiful treasure box from my grandparents.  Mom and Dad got me a Barbie book;  I should mention that I get a Christmas book from Mom and Dad every year.  One of the funniest things that happened when we were opening presents was when Arianna opened one of her presents and said, "A book???".  And Mom said, "It's about 7 Little Postmen, how cute!"  Arianna just said, "Oh, great," and chucked it to the side.  I guess she's more interested in toys. 

It was nice to be with my family up in Oregon, and I forgot to mention that we cut down our own tree from the woods.  My Christmas this year was so much like a Christmas I had a few years ago, but somehow it seemed even better because the whole family was there, including Dakota (who hadn't been born 2 years ago) and Lilah (our dog).  I had one of the best Christmases ever!
