Something Funny from Ian

Ian said, "Mom, before we had telephones people had to write letters!"
"I know. Isn't that fun?" I replied.
"And before there were pencils, you had to type stuff up on computers!" he said with disgust.

Star of the Week

I'm the star of the week at school and I just turned 6!

This is the poster I made with Mom.

New Year's Resolutions

my first goal is to lose a tooth. papa said that if next new year's eve i haven't lost a tooth he will knock one out with a hammer.

ian

ian likes to hear books especially junie b. jones. this is the funniest part of it:

jingle bells
Batman smells
P.S. so does May.
I'd throw May right off the sleigh
And then I'd drive away!

the end.

Christmas List #2

Dear Santa-
I would like a Newsie shirt and some suspenders like they wear in Newsies. I would also like some cowboy boots, a new coat, a pencil sharpener, new Sunday shoes size 13 or 14 or 15, Capoeira lessons, and a new Hula Hoop. Mostly, I want the suspenders and a Newsie shirt. Thanks. -Ian.

If I may say one thing.....my son is very well rounded. (He may also be a little crazy; but genetically that can't be helped.)

For The Original Fans: Brooke, Dayna and Kaila

There's a "new" Newsies fan on the block and it's Ian! If you look closely at these pictures you will see that he is dancing along smashingly with the movie. He's also taken up spitting in his hand for a handshake. Lovely. Now if I can get these lyrics out of my head before I go mad!

ARISE AND SEIZE THE DAY!!!!!

zoo

me and mom go to the zoo and play with the animals.

A Nose

Ian's nose started running in church....actually it's been running all week, but it really started up in church. So, I politely said, "You need a Kleenex."
To which he replied shrieking, "I DON'T NEED A KLEENEX! I NEED A NEW NOSE!"

That's my boy!

Halloween

I was a ninja for Halloween. I was also sick, which made me a grumpy ninja.
But, I did get a lot of candy, which made me a little more cheerful.

Brooke

This blog is for Brooke! When I am 7 or 8 or 9, I can have Brooke's violin. Brooke thanks for the violin. I love you, Brooke.

The end.
Ian

Fútbol.....who knew?

So, after months of saying he didn't like soccer, Ian tried soccer and guess what? He loves it! He's pretty good at it too! These are pictures from his last game and he scored 3 goals! You'll notice the tongue out during the corner kick. It shows he concentrates like a Johnson I guess.



Ian le encanta el fútbol, despues de meses diciendo que no le gusta. Ya cuando empezó a jugar, fue otra cuenta. Jiji. Es un buen jugador también. Los fotos son de su último partido y metió 3 gols. Es mi hijo. jeje. ¡Viva el fútbol!

All I want for Christmas....

A violin is on the top of Ian's list for Christmas this year.

Thanks Aunt Brooke for letting him have a go at it!

My school

My school. I think it's very boring because we don't do work. I like math. I like to do math. It is my favorite subject. I don't like when we don't do math...hard math. I hate it when we do easy math because it is so easy for me. I've been practicing math at home. I always get mad when we don't do hard math. Reading is boring to me, because I don't like little kid books. I mostly like chapter books. Chapter books are easy to me (because my mom is reading them out loud). My favorite chapter books are: Junie B. Jones, Ramona the Pest, SuperFudge and Ribsby. Ribsby is a dog that gets a bubble bath by a bunch of dumb girls and then he gets lost and found by an old lady.

The story behind the zissst....

Just in case you are wondering. Ian is a big fan of Junie B. Jones. (Such a big fan that we read three entire books yesterday!) So, there is a Junie B. Jones called The Mushie Gushie Valentine. Long story short: Meanie Jim sends Junie B. an anonymous valentine. Later she finds out and they decide they like one another. They start playing this game where they zissst each other. You know, they chase each other around and then when they touch, it's like an electric shock and they yell out, "zissst!" Ian liked the idea and started it up with Abby. (I hear she's a darling little red head.) I said, "Maybe she hasn't read the book. Does she know what zissst means?"
He replied, "I told her it means I love her." Okay. Just so we are clear.

So, just to be funny last night as we walked home from blogging I said, "Why don't you ever zissst me? Don't you like me?"
He says, "I really, really, really like you. But I really, really, really, really like Abby. One more really. So I zissst her, not you."

Fabulous. Less than a month into school and I'm already not the most important woman in his life. It's going to be a long 12 years!

Zissst

abby. she is my girlfriend. she thinks i'm annoying when i do this...zissst. i zissst abby every day. abby has a friend that's named taylor. taylor wants to know why i zissst abby. it's because i like her. abby is one seat away from me. there is somebody that is in my class that is between me and abby. every day i walk past her i zissst her. sometimes she zissts me back. i mostly always zissst her. when i stand in line i mostly stand in line by abby. sometimes i am in the back of the line because i'm the power saver and abby is the line leader. the power saver is always in the back of the line. when we go to sit on our square i always crawl over to her square until she comes and then i zissst her. and she always doesn't like when i zissst her. zisssting abby is fun. i never can get by abby when taylor is. taylor is abby's best friend too. Zissst means: i like you.
bye. -ian
