Youtube daily bit May 26 2017

Anne: Ah!

Anne: I think some creature bit me!

I think it wants a band-aid.

The sun is setting and we are just starting to vlog.

Ya we are starting to VLOG!

Remember how I said I slept a ton the other day?

so last night I slept nine hours and I

Last night I slept nine hours and I felt

it was maybe two. When I got to work

one of my friends said she is feeling the same way this week.

I'm just really run down. I think I just have a

a virus. So I decided to stay home

from activities tonight with Anne and just rest.

I feel like I could sleep for a million years a million years and I would be fine with it

We did want to tell you we are really

glad that we filmed the stuff about that

nest because the very next day the nest

actually fell due to wind. We went out

there...actually I think it's still there

I'll go show you oh my gosh yeah come on

Anne: Can I come?

Maria: Ya come on!

Anne: YAY!

Look. No nest...and...

Maria: Look. How sad, right?

They must have been really new eggs because they look just

like regular eggs.

One was in there

One fell in there so yeah we're just

kind of sad about that.

We didn't like him up there but we

were going to let them hatch on their own.

We had one last year that was up in

here that an animal got to it. Right up in here.

If you look back at my Instagram from a year ago

there's pictures of the birds that

they actually totally hatched and then just

hadn't been flying yet and some predator got them

It was really sad.

I'm learning how to climb trees

I'm scared to up a tree though.

You climbed a tree a couple years ago!

I did. I climbed a tree when I was in the

fifth grade. That was the last time I

climbed a tree.

Yeah but I can't. I'm scared

to climb a tree though like that

one's too big right? That one has

so many leaves on it.

I can't tell if you guys can even hear

this because the wind is always

moving here.

[beautiful acoustic guitar]

Is it almost summer?

Maria: Almost

Not quite.

I wish.

Last year when Ryan's parents were here we planted a bunch right in here.

And a week later they were killed by hail

So they didn't take.

Obviously it is all full of weeds now

This is the next place once we get the

garden in I want to weed all this out

and put some perennials in here.

We've got a ton of other things we're doing this year.

Anne: Ah!

Maria: What?

Anne: Bit me

Maria: What do you mean "bit you?"

Maria: What bit you?

Anne: Would you please look in there?

Maria: Is there something in there?

Anne: Ya it bit me.

Maria: Are you okay? Let me see your finger.

Anne: Kind of red.

Maria: Where?

Anne: Right here.

Anne: It hurts when you touch it.

Maria: Hold on.

Maria: I don't see anything in there.

Was it a spider that got you?

Anne: Ya I think it is.

Anne: I'm pointing at you.

Maria: Hmm...

We don't know what happened to my finger, right?

Maria: I could feel it. I think it might just be a little cactus thing.

Maria: Let's see if we can get it out.

Maria: Okay?

Anne: [uhh!] Got it out!

Anne: Shhhhh. Shhhh!

Be quiet!

Maria: [whispering] See he's getting low.

Anne: oh!

Maria: There he goes.

Maria: [chuckles] He didn't even let us get close.

Anne: Was that cool?

You guys saw us spray the dandelions in the front yard

We've been trying to get that under control first

before we lay a bunch of seed to get our grass back.

But the back yard is out of control

Last year Anne kicked and spread a bunch of the seeds

Which I know is going to happen anyway especially out here

But you have to see this. It is so bad!

It was not like this last year!

This little section of grass was really healthy last year

It's still healthy. I think that is why the dandelions like it.

You just have to see this.

We have a forest on our hands. [laughter]

Oh my gosh!

It's so bad!

Look at all

those

dandelions

Look at how big these ones are!

[laughter]

Maria: What do you think Anne?

Great! They're not as big as me though.

They're only half your height. Don't worry.

Maria: The chickens wanna say hi.

Maria: Hey ladies

Anne: Hi ladies!

You guys already had food today. You guys are good.

Anne: yeah yeah

Maria: I need to check on Miss Remi though

Maria: We need to make you a cape.

Anne: What cape?

Maria: [sounds distracted] Why is the other side doing that now?

After looking at her closer I'm wondering if

maybe it's because of the rooster.

Because the spot without feathers is on the other side now too.

Anne: Okay I think we need to keep looking for flowers

I think there is some in my thing.

Anne: Hey guys. Let me show you my new...

Maria: [interrupts] Whoa!!

Maria: Don't kick me.

Are you excited to make our rock climbing wall?

Ya! I want it right next to here instead of the garage.

Maria: I think that's a good idea.

Maria: I think it's more fun to have it outside so you can get to it all the time.

Anne: [feigns] I need help.

Whoa!

Maria: Careful!

Anne: Bwa!

I am going to have to blur out so much booty right there! [laughs]

Anne has been asking when the toads are going to come

back out and I'm so excited.

They are only out for a couple weeks when it's the

very very hottest in July we still have

So we still have some some time

But how nice it is right now at dusk makes me very excited for it though.

I love the way this feels

I love how still it is out here

is so beautiful right now

Anne: Did you see that I just flipped?!

Did you see my cartwheel?

Maria: The problem is I keep seeing booty and I can't show that.

Anne: Don't show it K?

Anne: But I'll fix it. Don't worry.

Maria: What's your cartwheel?

Maria: Whooooa!

Anne: That was my cartwheel!

Kids! That was my cartwheel!

Maria: Whoa. Too close. Too close.

Kids do not try this at home.

When you guys are watching this it is tomorrow for us and today for you.

It will be Grandpa Mecham

and my mom's birthday.

It that cool?

Anne: Ya!

[sings quietly] Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you!

[sings quietly] Happy Birthday dear Grandpa!

[sings quietly] Happy Birthday to you

Can you give me your loudest, craziest birthday song?

[sings loudly] Happy Birthday to you!!

And the raspberry bushes. It's springs so they should be out soon.

Maria: Sometime soon. Yep. They are doing well.

Maria: Alittle bit of growth right there. See?

A little bit of growth so they're doing okay.

Anne: Cockadoodledoo! Tweet tweet!

[birds chirping loudly in background]

Maria: They're making a ruckus aren't they?

Maria: I wonder if they're mating or something.

Maria: Upon very close inspection

Maria: It does not appear to be a bite.

Maria: I am wondering if it was a pinch or thorn or thistle

that might be in there.

I think some creature bit me.

Maria: You think so?

I think some creature got in there and bit me

Then went through a hole and hid in the sewer.

Maria: I hope not. I don't see a bite.

Maria: That's what was concerning to me I was scared

there was a something that bit 'ya and we'd

have to worry about that. but I see no

Anne: It still hurts though.

Maria: I'm not saying it doesn't hurt. It definitely hurts.

I'm just happy that it's not a spider bite. Okay?

I think it wants a band-aid.

Anne: Who did I get?

Anne: Twinsie!

Anne: So there's two Poppies!

Anne: [makes the Sad Trombone sound] Wha wha wha wha....

Maria: I think you've gotten all of the troll bandaids.

Maria: So Ryan is home if you didn't notice.

Made it home safe and sound.

Maria: Did the Boy Scouts kill you?

Clearly they have not.

Maria: Yet.

Yet. It's true.

I almost used all of the band-aids. There is ONE left!

I hope it's not Poppy. I hope it's Guy Diamond.

Maria: So are you going to earn your check marks tomorrow and clean all of this up?

Anne: yeah

Maria: You better cuz guess who's coming?

Ryan: Sometime soon.

Anne: If I fill the whole thing up I get

an egg surprise, Troll blind bag, or new Troll slippers or something.

Ryan: Or anything you want to buy with the money you earn

Maria: If you've noticed it's Wednesday.

and you have made the bed

and you've been doing the chickens...

Maria: What's the other one she scratched out?

Ryan: That's watering the plants.

Maria: You may notice that cleaning her room and

picking up toys has not been on the list

lately so the toys are kind of making

Ryan: It's driving me insane.

Maria: Plus I have stuff over here I need to put away.

Maria: Ya. It's kind of everywhere.

Anne: [singing a bit funky] Happy Birth-day to them! Happy Birth-Day to them!

[spoken] Happy birthday to them!

And thank you for watching! Bye!

[Ryan and Maria laugh]

Anne: Pringles!

Ryan: I won't forget the Pringles! I love you.

Ryan: I'll be back! Okay?

You be good for Mom! [Anne giggles]

[giggles] Bye!!
