Embry

This is Embry.
Embry is a stinker!

Where there is trouble?
Embry will be there.
Find a big mess?
Embry WILL NOT be there.
But chances are, Embry had something to do with it.
Embry likes a good mess.

Embry was scared to start going to Boo Boo Kiss Academy.
School was not exactly what Embry had planned.
Embry likes to stay at home with Mommy and read and clean and run errands.

But then Embry met Boo Boo Kiss.
And changed that little mind.
Even though Embry gets a little nervous before school,
As soon as Boo Boo Kiss makes the scene, Embry is a happy little ducky.

Everybody loves Boo Boo Kiss.

Embry learned that it's okay to be scared.
But you don't want to miss out on the fun.
Sometimes even when you are not sure how things will turn out,
they really do turn out just great.

It helped that Embry has a sibling in her class.
Do you know what a sibling is?
It is a brother or a sister!
Embry loves to sing this song with her sibling, Morgan.

 CHUDDERS (the song)

If you start feeling just a bit sentimental,
Put your arm around me, you don't have to be gentle,

And we can start swinging our arms
And singing my song.

If you find yourself feeling just a little bit lonely
Looking for a friend but you find you are the only
Keep looking around the house
and you will find me.

Grab a hold of my hand because you are my besty.
Better than the others you are better than the rest-y
You're better than the besty best friend,
because you're MY best friend.

WE LOVE OUR CHUDDERS!
WE LOVE OUR CHUDDERS!
WE LOVE OUR CHUDDERS!
And we also love our MUDDER!
She introduced us to our CHUDDER!

Sisters and Brothers really need one another.
I can trade my sister for your cute little brother.
But in the end you better give me mine back,
Because she's my fave.


I love you and you love me.
I'm so happy about our family.
Arms around our chudders and sing it with glee.
Sing with me.
SING WITH ME!

WE LOVE OUR CHUDDERS!
WE LOVE OUR CHUDDERS!
WE LOVE OUR CHUDDERS!
And we also love our MUDDER!
She introduced us to our CHUDDER!

The Littles

This is Morgan.
Morgan is a LITTLE.
Or, one of the little ones at Boo Boo Kiss Academy.
All the BIG KIDS help the LITTLES.
They help them reach stuff they are too small to reach.
Help them learn stuff because BIG KIDS can teach.

Morgan is the oldest of the LITTLES.
Smart, funny, and full of energy, Morgan really knows how to make a HUGE mess!

Do YOU know how to make a HUGE MESS?
A mess SO HUGE that someone starts freaking out?
Because it isn't HUGE until a grown-up freaks out.
That is pretty much the rule!

Morgan loves hats.
And has quite a few.
Each hat has a different personality that goes with it.
This hat is definitely a PARTY ANIMAL hat!

Morgan loves to party.
To sing.
To dance.
To run in circles screaming.
To fall on the floor laughing until SOMEONE has to go POTTY!

But mostly Morgan loves friends.
Before bed at night, Morgan makes special papers with markers and tape for her new friends.
New friends that might introduce themselves tomorrow.
It is best to be prepared, you know.

Here is Morgan without a hat.

Do you have any hats?
Do you like to pretend that you are someone new when you wear one?
Do you have any pictures of YOU in your hat?
We would love to see it!
Send us a link!

Drumroll, please....

Growing Up Lolli

Yesterday, my mom told me that I was going to grow up to be old.
JUST LIKE HER.

::shudders::

Then she tells me I can have all kinds of jobs once I am grown.
I asked her what her job is.

 

She rolled her eyes and said something about safety, keeping things alive, blah blah blah.

I am guessing she isn't a public speaker.

 Everywhere we go, Mom says,
"See that fire fighter? She helps people and fights fires!"
 or

Don't you like Mr. Doctor? His job is making kids feel better!"

or

"Boo Boo Kiss has a job loving children and teaching them things."

And then my dad wants me to be a pro surfer.
But I think we both know he just wishes he was a pro surfer.

Mom says I can be ANYTHING I WANT.

But I think I know what I want to be when it is MY turn to get a job.

 A funky fresh famous freaky POPSTAR!

I really love to play my keyboard.
Mom says one day I can have a big piano!
I wonder if it will be pink.

I prefer pink pianos.
Pink pianos play perfect preludes.
Perfect for POPSTARS!

 A Song for Things That Start with P

P is PERFECT for making lots of PUH sounds
P is PUH- PUNCHY it makes me go PUH PUH PUH PUH

P is for PINK. For PINK and PURPLE PEONIES.
P is for PONY
And who wouldn't want a PONY!


P. P. P.
I love P.
P loves you and P loves me.
Without it I couldn't be so haPPy!
P. P. P. so haPPy! 

P is for PUPPET. A PUPPET can be PRETTY.
P is for PECAN. You can PUT those in PIE!

P is for PRESIDENT and PEDRO.
VOTE FOR PEDRO!
Does anybody like POPSICLES?

P. P. P.
I love P.
P loves you and P loves me.
Without it I couldn't be so haPPy!
P. P. P. so haPPy!

 What is YOUR favorite word that starts with P?

A Mermaid Story

Some days all I can think about is cupcakes.
And stars.
And the moon.
I think about the moon A LOT.
And Peeps.
I do love him so.

Some kids love trains, and some kids love to play kitchen.
Some love chalk and some love games.
And even though I do (I really do) like all of those things, (who wouldn't?)
I am always in for a puppet show.

Do YOU like puppet shows?

Puppets are just so funny with their flappy little heads. 

If I don't have a puppet of something, I just make one.

In fact right now I am working on a mermaid puppet.

Would you like to hear the story that goes along with her?

OKAY WELL IF YOU INSIST.

Once upon a time there was a mermaid.

No, SISTERS.

They were mermaid sisters.

And their names were Beatrice and Emily.

No, wait.
That doesn't sound right.
Finley and Jordan.
Yes, That sounds more mermaid-y.
There names were Finley and Jordan.

Anyhoo, Finley and Jordan weren't just mermaid sisters.
They were the best of friends.

One day when Finley was out swimming in the ocean, she came across a shoe.
She thought, "I am going to give this TREASURE to Jordan! She will LOVE IT!"

And as she swam back to their little mermaid house, she wondered what this treasure even was.

See, mermaids have fins, not feet, so they don't even wear shoes.
Since Finley had never even seen FEET before, she was at a loss.
She thought maybe it was a fish trap, or a sea horse bed, or a DINNER.
But it really didn't seem (or taste) like any of those things. (ptooey)

So Finley decided maybe Jordan could tell her.

Turns out, Jordan had NO CLUE what the treasure was either.

They decided to call it a Beeboobobber.

They stuck a plant right in the foot hole of the Beeboobobber and were easily the envy of Beeboobobber-less mermaids everywhere.

The sisters decided that they would spend their lives collecting Beeboobobbers and reselling them to their mermaid friends.

And indeed, they opened the very first underwater Beeboobobber store and made piles of shells.
I mean, so many shells they opened 3 more Beeboobobber stores.
Who knew Beeboobobbers were going to be all the rage in a mermaid world?
What luck to be able to really crest a trend like that!

And I wish I could tell you that THAT was the end, but seriously, I just ran into Finley the other day and they really have a hard time keeping up with all the business and are looking to expand again...

Rainy Day

Some days all it does is rain.
Some times for DAYS.
RAIN. ONLY RAIN.

It can drive a guy stir crazy.
But not a guy like Tag.

What can I say?
Tag knows how to party.


Who needs boots and a raincoat when they have swim trunks and Divey Man?

And PUDDLES!

Rainy days are great for building forts.
Reading books.
Drawing pictures of monsters and aliens.

Rainy days are good for making cookies.
Hiding and seeking the cat.
Playing super one man band show.
When Tag grows up he's going to play guitar for the President!

Tag loves music.
He could spend all day (rain or shine) practicing his awesome stage moves.
He can kick and thrash and play VERY LOUD!.
He can play softly.
But he usually plays somewhere in between.

Do YOU like music?
Do you have a favorite song?
Do you like to sing along?
Do you like to play with instruments?
Do you like to play LOUD or softly?

Here is a song that Tag wrote:

Play in mud and play in sand.

On your shirt.

All over your hands.

Mom says clean up.

Time to run.

Mom loves chasing me in the sun.

Dirty running: it makes her so mad.

Dirty running: how could it be bad?

Dirty running: If I stop I'm going to be so sad...

Dirty running: This kind of stuff always cracks up my dad.

Paint on my fingers.

Paint on my toes.

Paint just everywhere paint could go.

Paint on the floor and

Paint in my hair.

When my mom comes in this should give her a scare!

Dirty running: it makes her so mad.

Dirty running: how could it be bad?

Dirty running: If I stop I'm going to be so sad...

Dirty running: This kind of stuff always cracks up my dad.

Music and making up songs is SUPER way to pass some time on a RAINY day!
Thanks for playing along.

Howdy!

Howdy there, kids!
It's ME!
Cowgirl Lolli!
I'm the sharpest shooter in the West!

I love to take pretty pictures.
Pretty pictures help me remember the things I have done!
Sometimes my mommy puts all the pictures I take in a week into a photo album.
Then I have my own little book!

 Do you like to take pictures?
Do you like to DRAW pictures?
A lot of times I draw a picture of something I want to remember.
And then my mommy puts it on the refrigerator.
And then I remember every time I walk by it.
And then I tell my dad all about it.
And he says, "Oh yes what is THIS PART, Lolli." and "Lolli what are THESE guys doing here?"

And then we laugh and LAUGH and laugh because I almost always draw funny things.

Draw a picture of ME!
Don't forget my RED hair and GREEN eyes!
And certainly don't forget my Cowgirl hat!
Yeehaw!

Have a great weekend!
