Wow, Mommy can hardly believe it's been 100 days since I started this blog for the two of you! Mommy was anxious to see the paper this morning! Mommy just knew, one of the several pictures I submitted to the Kokomo Tribune, would be picked for print in today's Sunday paper. Uncle Rudy called bright and early to let us know that he saw Daddy and Jude in the paper! Mommy thought it was quite humerus that they picked the picture of Daddy's big apple head over my two apple dumplin's! :) The picture was taken last Sunday during our family outing. Bodhi, I'm determined to get you in the paper too, so it's just a matter of time before you make your debut :)
Daddy and Jude's Newspaper debut
(picture from 4/3/11)
Today, was a busy day. This morning was a mixture of work, homework, and of course, multi-tasking the both of you with everything else going on. Jude, while Mommy was looking up your Kokomo Tribune picture online, you decided to crawl for Daddy. Mommy ran up the stairs with camera in hand, but you had worn yourself out and you were just laying on your tummy with your hands out by your side :(
After you both woke from your naps, Mommy decided to take you to play at my old Elementary school, Lafayette Park, for a change in scenery. It sure was hot out today, 86 degrees according to the car, but we walked from our home all the way to the school, and it was one long trek in the heat. Once there, Mommy fed you both dinner and dessert on a blanket, and then let the two of you play. Sister Kelly showed up about an hour into our adventure, which made things easier on Mommy, and permitted you both to do more! A little later into our adventure, Grandmoo showed up with Mr. Arlo. Mr. Murff wouldn't leave the house, it was too hot for him. Mr. Murff barked the whole time Grandmoo was loading Mr. Arlo into her truck :( Poor Mr. Murff missed out! Mr. Arlo didn't want to leave the park, he really enjoyed himself :)
Our park experience was quite the experience for you both. Mommy had to deal with teenagers and toddlers who thought they were gangster. Mommy told some teenagers to watch their mouths around you, Bodhi. They respectfully said they were sorry. Mommy didn't want your first words to be "Fuck you, nigga." A little girl, not much older than you Bodhi, walked up to you and Sister Kelly, ready to throw a handful of mulch in your face Bodhi. The little girl had been watching her teenage siblings throw mulch and scream at each other. Sister Kelly quickly told her "NO," and protected you hee/hee This same little girl tried stealing another little girls hoodie, and tried getting into our stroller as well. Crazy! Mommy thought Foster was kind of rough at times, we probably won't be going back to this park anytime soon. Sister Kelly wanted Mommy to get you both out of there right away hee/hee
We walked and played for a good four hours this evening. Bodhi, it was your bedtime when we left the park, and of course you passed out in the stroller. Jude, you were wide awake the whole stroller ride home. You wanted to keep Mommy company :) Mommy has never been so stressed during one of our walks, as I was tonight. The wind picked up, the skies were darkening, and Mommy thought for sure we were going to get caught out in the rain, but we made it home without getting rained on! Today, was a fun day... sure wish Daddy could have been with us. Both Mommy and Daddy will probably be up working all night tonight :(
"Peace Buddha" ;)
Look at those white chunky legs... just like your Momma!
Jude, you were just chillin' in your shorts and t-shirt today and I think you enjoyed going bare foot (like we had a choice, we lost one of your shoes yesterday)
Baby Boy! You love when your sister laughs, it makes you smile :)
First time playing in mulch
Juders studying the mulch...
and in the mouth it went! Everything goes in your mouth!
"Playful Buddha" ;)
Bodhi, you take your dessert serious!
Bodhi, Mommy let you go down this slide by yourself. The first time you went down it, you went head first. It's much higher than the one at Foster that you go down by yourself!
Bodhi, you look like you are going to go head first, but this is how you get situated to get on your bum. You didn't want any part of going head first after the first time you did it!
"Weeeeeee!"
Bodhi, you climbed all the way back up the slide for the first time today! You always try, but today you were determined ;)

Bodhi, you wanted Sister Kelly to lift you to the bar, and then you hung there! You acted so proud!
Bodhi and her Sister Kelly!
