The cut finger

So these are pics about Caleb's cut finger. The white stuff you see below his cut is liquefied skin, that's when water vapor is trapped within the skin and changes its color and makes it wrinkled, odd huh.

On the GO

Today, my family and I rode our bikes to this home school play date. Its basically when a bunch of home schooled kids go to this church and do whatever kind of game you want to play. Today was presentation day, that's when you bring some thing you want to present to a bunch of other kids. I presented my piano skills, I played a part in the song composed by Lobwig Van Beethoven called "Fur Elise" and if I do say so myself I was pretty darn GOOD. The best part of this day was we got the chance to eat Subway for dinner. The reason being, is because our friend, Miss Joelle, got my family and me some gift cards for Subway (as a welcome to Carmen and Josie.) Now we are putting them to good use.

The Caleb Incident

This just in... my brother, Caleb, cut himself on a sharp rock. He runs in the house freaking out, and dripping blood on the floor. When he went to run water over it, the water was still hot from when mom was washing dishes and it burned him. I asked him for a picture of it, but mom was already putting a band aid on it, so it was too late. Besides, he was yelling "NO!!!" the whole time.

New Blogger

Hello readers, I would like to inform you that my brother Caleb has his own blog now. I took a look at it, it's pretty cool, though there are no posts- it has a fair amount of gadgets, and widgets. I will put the link on my site.

A bad arm day

When I was making eggs and toast. I dropped  the cover of the pan I used, and the entire pan fell to the ground with four eggs in it. As it dropped, the edge of the pan burned my arm pretty bad. My Dad had to put this burn cream, and a gauze pad on it.  

The merit system

My mom started this merit system in November.  It is this chart of chores and attitude list. If you forgot to do the chores before nine o clock then you lost that point.  There are a set of levels Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze, and Blackout.  Each level has a specific amount of points.  Platinum is when you haven't lost any points, Gold is when you lose 1-3, Silver is when you lose 4-7, Bronze is when you lose 8-11, and Blackout is when you lose 12-16.  Platinum, you are allowed to watch one hour of movies or computer and go to friends house or go to the park. Gold, you are allowed to watch one hour too. Its basically the same as Platinum, but you haven't lost any points at all.  Silver,  you can watch one half hour of TV or computer, and go to the park with a parent. Bronze, you can't watch movies or computer, you can't have cereal,  you have to eat plain oatmeal with two teaspoons of sugar. Blackout, you can't sit on the couch, you have to sit on a hard chair and you eat plain food - no sugar added or included.  You also can't go outside and you can't play inside either.

The Intoduction

Today I would like to tell you about my family of nine. My Dad is a licensed Architect, and trying to get a license for real estate too. My mom is the most hard working mom I know. She is a stay at home mom, but she use to be a nurse. I am the oldest of us seven kids and if I do say so myself, I am probably the second most popular (the first is of course mom). Caleb is next. He is my half-brother and the second most temperamental. Carmen is the third and is the oldest girl. She is one of those people who if she has any kind of responsibility she acts like a football coach. Billy Jo (Josie) is the one who is hyper and loud and the fourth oldest. She also follows me around almost all the time. My sister Mattea is the most calm and she is also 100% Korean. Mattea was the oldest girl until Carmen and Josie came into our life. Ciara, number six, is the most loud and temperamental, but in between times she is pretty cute. And finally, Lainey is the youngest of the seven and also the cutest and funniest; she likes to call me Daner.

The new sisters

A few months after the family pictures were taken, we adopted to new sisters into the family. Their names are Carmen and Billy Jo (but we call her Josie).

The Family

This is the family picture I am the tall one in the back. Every kid is adopted in my Family, I was adopted as was my brother, and my sisters.
