Yesterday I uploaded all the pics from the past few weeks. We’ve taken 2 trips to Disneyland, played at Gymboree, almost gotten evacuated due to a fire, and danced around the living room.

Here are a few of my favorites:
Disneyland with the Gymboree gang:

The kittens are getting along with the other cats for the most part. I caught Spats and Mishra snuggling on the couch

It’s hard to see, but that hill is where the fire jumped over the freeway. We live on the opposite side of that hill. It got less than 2 miles from our house, but thankfully not any closer.

Second trip to Disneyland in a month! We focused on Characters more this trip- met Tinkerbell, and the Chipmunks, and also rode Autopia for the first time!

Pretending to be a frog eating insects.

Just a couple of minutes ago I was sitting here on the couch, working on my school work while Jordan played nicely in the livingroom. I guess she wandered into her room, which she does frequently, but I hadn’t noticed. Anyway, all of the sudden I hear a big “thud”, then hear SCREAMING coming from her room. I ran faster than I knew was humanly possible as this was not a normal scream. When I opened her door, she said that Spats, our very large (almost 20 lbs) cat had pushed her off the bed. When I looked at her face, I saw that she was covered in blood- pretty much from under her nose all down her mouth and chin, down her neck, and all over her hands. I wasn’t sure where all the blood was coming from, and I sensed an impending trip to emergency room, but I very calmly took her into the bathroom, removed her shirt and began to wipe off the blood to find the source. I couldn’t find any more blood after wiping it all off until I asked her to open her mouth- there it was! All her teeth were pink, and there was a red line all around her teeth. I quickly checked to make sure she had all her teeth- thankfully she did. None looked chipped, or loose. I asked her to point to what hurt, and she pointed to that little piece of skin that attaches to the upper gums, which has a very small cut on it. I can’t imagine such a small cut making so much blood, but I guess mouth injuries are pretty icky. Anyhoo- she seems fine now, but it was a small little panic for me a few minutes ago!
I’ll write about the fire later. Suffice it to say we are safe, and the fire is now completely contained. I’ll post pics and the story later.

Here are some highlights from Halloween:

This morning I made Jordan a new hat. She enjoyed wearing it, and wanted to wear pink and black to match.

I am uploading more pics- Halloween night, a few of Jordan showing off her Halloween bracelet from Gigi and G-pa, and our trip this afternoon to see High School Musical 3. You may think I’m crazy for taking a 2 year old to see High School Musical, but she greatly enjoyed it. And so did I! She’s had a thing for Corbin Bleu since she was 6 months old, and she was rather excited to see him on the big screen. We were the only ones in the theatre, which was nice- she was able to move around a bit that way. She wanted to dance along, because, well, there was music playing! Music=time to dance when Jordan’s around, so I let her stand up in front of our seats and dance a bit. Judging from her dancing I think the junk yard song was her favorite. It’s a duet with Corbin and Zac Efron, called The Boys Are Back. All in all a very fun afternoon!

On a different note- I have added a sidebar mainly for the grandparents. It has Jordan’s current sizes and I will try to keep it updated when they change… if they change… it seems her sizes have been the same forever. She can still wear almost everything from last year fall/winter, except some of the shirts are tight, and a bit too short, the pants are a tiny bit short, but the waists on the “big clothes” from last year are still waaay too big. Good news is, I don’t have to do much clothes shopping for this year- her winter coat from last year as well as her Christmas dress still fit her! Whee!!

I finally got all the pics uploaded from October, so here is October in a photo list. If you want to see all the pics, check out the gallery!
