The Rolon Clan

Last weekend Kuda came to visit. She brought lots of goodies, including Cait's outfit and new baby, which she named Michelle.

 They went outside and showed her and Nelson how good they are getting at sports.

 

Even though this week has brought cooler weather, the kids insisted on going out for a water gun fight.

My kids are currently bartering their services in exchange for money. They are each saving up for something that they want. In exchange for $5 a piece, the kids danced to Dance Central songs for Kuda and Nelson. Earlier this week they fixed my bed as a surprise and insisted on charging me: Jayden $2, Caitlin $10. I am QUITE sure Jayden did most of the work but Caitlin was trying to rip me off!

Then my little business minded children received a call from their dad who was at work. He requested some new artwork for his walls. Jayden insisted he had to be paid $2 for his work. Juan tried to barter, starting as low as $1. But Jayden would not budge. His price was firm and in the end he received his asking price. So they set to work making new things for Juan's walls.

In the end there was a ton of cut up paper all over the table and floor. But they earned their money. Jayden has now saved the money he needs to buy a video game he wanted. Caitlin is saving up for the Wii U she says.


Cait decided earlier this week that her dolls needed to swim in the "cachuzzi" sans pants since she didn't want them to get wet.

The kids have a new desk. Juan set the laptop up to be like a desktop for them. Jayden had a lot of fun typing letters back and forth with Hayzel. He also made a list of games he wants. He is having a lot of fun trying different fonts and settings.
