Once upon a time a monkey fell off a tree. Then a monkey helped him. They get the monkey the bannana. The monkeys rest. The monkeys drive away. The monkeys drive to the airport and fly to Mexico. They moved in a forest. There were many bannana trees. "I love this place" one of the monkeys said. "Me too!" said the other. THE END

A Monkey
My name is Alejandro. I have a pet monkey named Mandy. We like to play the animal game. Mandy made a mess of leaves on the floor. Alejandro cleaned up the mess. They played in the leaves first. Uh-oh. Alejandro forgot to clean the pile of leaves. Then they had to go potty.
A story about a dinosaur (transcribed exactly as written)...
I have a pet dinosaur named T-Rex. He roars. He stomps around all over my house. He is a carnivore. He eats meat. T-Rex sleeps with me in my bed and makes a mess in the kitchen. My mom was mad. I had to give T-Rex away.

I once let a veloceraptor into my home. he fit nicely. I gave him some steak for dinner. "He loves me." I said. I pat him on the head. He takes me for a ride. "You are my friend forever." I said. I named him Bane. "I love him." I said. Then 30 weeks later I set him free. "Bye Bane." I said. The End.

Once upon a time a dog chased a frog. The frog had short legs. The dog jumped on the cake. He hurt his leg. They went to the hospital. They are all better. They raced and they go to Engleand. They go home to America. They go eat. They go to bed. They wake up. They drove to Mc. Donald's. They went home and ate. The end."
On Monday, Isaac and I took Jack out to lunch and a quick trip to the store. It was clear that Jack really loved having the undivided attention of both of his parents. He latched on to both of our hands as we walked along and soaked it all in. It was cute.
Although it does point out that in this regard, having to share parents with your siblings, it kind of stinks being the youngest. Poor guy.

I tried to post this video last Friday, but apparently it didn't go through. I'm trying again, because I think he looks so cute here.
Here's a quick video of Shawn scoping out the ladies at school...
He's such a flirt!

Speaking of Shawn, here is a paragraph he wrote about Muhammad Ali (transcribed just how he wrote it):
"Muhammed Ali was born January 17, 1943. He was born Caassius Marcellus Clay, Jr. Growing up they called him "GG" because as a baby he said "gee, gee, gee, gee." When Ali was young, someone stole his bike and he was mad, which led him to boxing."
I just love seeing his growth in his writing!

It seems that videos aren't loading very well on the blog. I posted this the other day with Shawn and Jason's jokes, but it wasn't there later. (I added it tonight.)
Here's Jack telling his new joke...

Jason has decided it is time for us all to play Minecraft with him. "I want to see if I can sneak up behind you and whack you with my diamond sword, mom!"
Well, if that isn't motivation to play the game, I don't know what is! lol
I was at a play. I was the leader. I had a play of a tale. Once upon a time we were in a village. We were farming. We were playing. All of a sudden a monster apered. We ran away but someone got the monster to run away. They were saved! The End!

I would like to be in a play about zoo animals. I would dress up as a zebra. Mrs. Jen would dress up as a lion. The play would take place in the zoo. The play would have a funny ending.
