Feeding My Cats

First I get Scratch and I put food into his bowl. Then Sibley comes over to get a snack. But I have to guard my other cat so Sibley doesn’t get to the food.

Dishes

Dishes

My sister Emma and I do the dishes when Mommy says, “Can you do the dishes?”  Then we say, “Yes!”  To do the dishes you have to rinse the dishes, but not too much.  Then you put the dishes into the dishwasher.  After that you run the dishwasher.  When the dishes are done you put the dishes on the counter.  Last you put the dishes in the cupboard.  No more dishes!  Yeah!

Feeding My Dogs

Feeding My 2 Dogs

After dinner my mom says, “It’s time for the dogs to eat their dinner.” Sure enough the dogs are wandering around like lost dogs who haven’t eaten in two months. So I get their bowls and I fill the bowls with dried dog food. Then I ask Tim to open the can of wet dog food. I always give the top half to Jazz and the bottom to Ritz. Next, I mix the dog food. Last I give the dogs their food and I watch them eat.

Fixing Games

Fixing Games

I love games.  I have a DS, a PSP, a Playstation 1, a Playstation 2, and a Playstation 3.  I also have an Xbox 360 and an Xbox.  I recently got a Wii and a Gameboy.  I have all the game systems.

At home, I help out by fixing games.  One time my brother’s DS was broken.  I was able to fix it by using a screwdriver.  My brother was very happy that I was able to help him out.

When I get older, I’d like to create new video games.  That means I will need to learn how to program computers.

Vacuuming is My Job

February 21, 2009

I Am A Vacuumer!

I am a vacuumer! First, I go get the vacuum as quick as a kickball player being chased by a pitcher. Then, I find an outlet and plug it in. I turn it on and move it back and forth on the rugs and on the floors. And when I‘m done, my mom does it again to make sure the room is clean. I love vacuuming!
