Prime Real Estate Property Opportunity
While in Chongqing, China we noticed all the construction that was going on and the fact that there was not a whole lot of space to build in. It appears that the builder of this "neighborhood" found a very unique solution, building under a freeway. We saw several apartments throughout the city that were built under freeways. Just thought it was interesting.

"but I'm asking nicely!"
Friday and Saturday mornings Madeline had difficult time at getting started so she had to spend some time in her room "thinking" about her attitude, most of that time was spent yelling though. On Saturday she was arguing and fussing so much that I told her to go to her room and when she was quiet and asked nicely she could come out. Well, as she was in her room crying loudly, she yells asking, "can I come out of my room now, CAN I COME OUT OF MY ROOM NOW PLEASE!" When no response came from Mom or Dad, she then yells, "but I'm asking nicely, I said please!"

Happy Sweet Giggling Sounds
With Madeline being sick and unable to go to school, she asked if she could sleep in Rebekah's room last night and had a rough night of coughing so we were both up periodically throughout the night. I was taking advantage of sleeping in a bit this morning waiting for Madeline to come bounding in our room, climbing into bed with me and asking to watch "Martha Speaks" on PBS. Instead, I woke up to Madeline singing "Silent Night" to Rebekah in Japanese (she is learning it in school) and sweet giggles. It was nice way to wake up.

The crying croup monster
Last night at around 2:30a we were abruptly awaken by Madeline coming in to our room crying and coughing a croupe cough. Well, as you can well imagine, I was sound asleep so when she comes running in our room in this manner I scream and jump in Kelly's direction who then wakes up, jumps out of bed ready for what ever is in the room. Thankfully the monster was just our 5 year old girl.

We took advantage of a beautiful autumn day. Everytime the wind blew the leaves would fill the air and gracefully float down. Madeline wore herself out chasing them. Rebekah was not so impressed with all the leaves, she was more interested in eating them.
Playing in the fall leaves.
Finally 3 faces looking at the camera.
Rebekah feeding Mama a flower - YUM.
Man it is difficult waiting for Rebekah to cooperate.
The Botanic Gardens had loads of butterflys flying everywhere. What a beautiful autumn day.
Dilligent squirrl.
Camo lizard. I was suprised to see a lizard still around in November.
