Who will take the Oscars?
It's almost time for the Oscars! Zow Wee Moma! This is Caleb Eckstein here with some information before the big thingy (I couldn't think of a better word.)! For the best animated picture, Persepolis was voted in the favorites category, but they think Ratatouille will be the bagger

Yankees Spring training
By Jake Caddeau
A few days ago I went to a Yankees vs. Pirates baseball game in Bradenton Florida. In pretty much the middle of the 5th inning, within an hour of getting of the plane It happened. Derek Jeter my absolute idol, role model, whatever, hit a fly ball down the right field line about two rows behind me. The ball hit off a chair back there and the old man infront of me caught it. I guess he was thanking me for telling him so many of the players stats without even using a roster, or maybe it was that he couldtell I loved baseball, and not just for money or fame, I love baseball for baseball. Anyway he dropped the ball into my glove! I was so excited I started showing it to my couisin Bobby and my dad and all the people around me. I called my mom and she started watching the game on her computer. A woman behind me offered me $20 for the ball but I said,"NO WAY!!!" I would never trade 20 bucks for a Derek Jeter foul ball, I mean dude, this even topped Joba's wave.

The Lightning Thief
By Jake Caddeau
I just read the Lightning Thief and started the Sea of Monsters just this afternoon. All I can think is: Whoa! That is the best book ever! The Lightning Thief is a story about a boy named Percy Jackson, not to be confused with Peter Johnson, (You'll get it when you read the book!) who discovers that the Greek Gods are real and that all the heros and creatures from all those myths are real too. Percy must fight Monsters in aquest to do something that I won't tell you because it would ruin the book. I think that it is the best book ever but I haven't read the two sequels.
P.S. It doesn't get exciting until page 70 about so don't make the same mistake I did the first time I tried it!

Jeremy's Crib
By Jake Caddeau
Jeremy Wachtel is now up and about and walking around. He walks over to you and gives you a hug, or gets a cookie! He has been talking for a while but flowing sentences probably won't come until 2 1/2 or 3 years old. He loves to watch us play games but espescially Twister, and sometimes he trys to play!

Birds at the Wachtel's
By Jake Caddeau
Today, Razzy, Nathaniel, Duncan, and I (I being Jake) were hanging out upstairs in Nathaniels house when we heard a crash and as we looked out the window saw some feathers floating down to the ground. We ran outside to find a bird lying on the ground. Razzy iddentified it as a woodpecker and asked us to go get some garden gloves so he could pick it up. Raz said it had some brocken ribs but that was all. We brought him the gloves and he picked up the bird and moved it into the sun. As we were setting up the home the bird flew away but we still made the home, just for other birds. I'm pretty sure Raz is going to be an animal guy like Jeff Corwin when he grows up.
