What have my Bedlum-ites been up to?

Hanging out with Friends:

(that's my Roberto, trying to eat playground water with his fingers)

(Princess Quesadillas)

(E has that " I don't want to share" look in her eyebrows)

Music Class:

Soccer Team:

Meeting Birds of Prey at the local Library:

Festivals:

Museum Mile
(they did draw with the chalk as well as eat it)

Make Music Festival with Kids Concert

(complete with parallel stroller parking with parking attendants-crazy!)

And this orchestration of 99 percussionists playing around a pond.

They occasionally hang with this guy...

And sometimes make up our own bedtime festivals, like this one involving headgear and toothbrushes.

Busy...

It all started with the vacation over Easter week, and then my grandmother's funeral a week after we got home which lead to an unplanned trip to the West, and then "The Brother's Reunion of '11" and Emmi's birthday and summer school (I am finally finishing my Bachelor's degree and wondering why I waited until I had two kids?), and then all the demands of an independent 3 year-old and her smaller male counterpart... so all this is why I have neglected thee, oh bloggy friend.

I will try to do better.

Welcome

Hey friends! We had to leave our public life behind and now we will try to catch up on the last couple of months! Maybe I will be consistent, but no promises.

Preschool

Emmilene has been in a preschool co-op all year and had so much fun with these 3 friends. We went over ABC's, numbers, and had a few sharing lessons, especially since all 4 gained a baby brother/sister in the last few months.

Binoculars:

We had a little graduation ceremony and I forgot my camera, but I would say Emmi's education is off to a pretty good start.

It's Time

The time has come for us to go private. So if you think we may neglect you on the list, please leave a comment indicating you would like to follow our very exciting lives.

It looks like Emmi is dressed up in anticipation of the Green Hornet or the Green Lantern, but she is just being her silly self.

Bieber

You may have wondered why we let our youngest get caught up in the Bieber-mania (yes, I had to google how to spell that).

Well, we had a talk with Robert, and decided he is too young to be a groupee.

So he got his second chop. He handled it really well.

I got a little carried away..... now he just looks like a little Ryan Seacrest.

Oh yeah, and Emmi got her FIRST haircut as well. Just a trim really, all while watching a princess movie.

Let's just say I'm not opening a hair salon any time soon, but everyone survived and there is a little less hair in the Salmon home.

He Eats!

Little Mr R. has finally decided he likes baby food.
And now he won't stop.

Emmi practicing for the Sahara.
