Nothing's cooler...

than the SCOOLER... Jadyn's invention for the "invention convention" at school. We are so proud of her.. she thought of this INGENIOUS adaptation to your average scooter. What does the SCOOLER do? Well, in Jadyn's words... this detatchable (industrial strength velcro) cooler, allows you to keep on playing and have your drinks and snacks with you so you don't have to go inside. You can sit on it, you can kneel on it... you can kick it at the park all day with your Scooler.

I don't know why I'm worried about getting another job. I need to patent this thing right away. The envious eyes of other kids as she rode her invention into school on the day we finished.. you should have seen it. By far the best one on display at second grade Open House (yes, she wanted to wear 'teenager shirt' again).

****taking orders now*** Jadyn overheard this morning saying that a Scooler conversion of your ordinary scooter would cost "Four bucks for friends, Five bucks for non-friends" what?? that's like selling yourself short, J!... "well, if you want the whole thing, it's still 60 bucks" um, okay. ********

X's and O's for Vday!

yet another "here, hold your brother and pose on your cute heart quilt" moment gone awry... trust me, they were all about the love this Valentine's day. Jadyn even gave Campbell her mexican bobble head dog since he loves it so much. I know. Precious moments at the Heits.

Car dance, Valentine Rolling Stones Edition

They call this "rain"

After the BIG 'storm watch' in San Diego.. this is all that remained and was super intriguing to barefoot big C... such a boy. He then proceeded to run out into the street to chase a bike.

my lunch date

aside from the fact that he'd rather talk to the birds than his mom, I could not believe Campbell is now big enough to sit and have a bagel and "cheers" with me while doing a little (VERY LITTLE, I KNOW... we're in a recession!) shopping.

budding artist...

and budding-color-all-over-the-house-ist... I guess I must have it coming to me for coloring on my wallpaper with black crayon as a 4 year old...grrreat.

Father Daughter dance...

unfortunately we could only get this one shot of the two leaving before the dance.. sure wish we could have been flies on the wall to see them cutting a rug...

Trailer by the sea

the cousins have some funny games.. like "follow me and play dead" or ?? all in good beach fun on a warm JANUARY weekend.

Office hours...

seriously. Jbird found on the phone talking to Nana, making plans, marking her calendar, probably firing people and adding HBO.. important stuff for sure.

Cheers...

another rewind... from our end of 2008 family date... one of Campbell's big crowd-pleaser tricks.
