Dexter and Mima

December 19, 2009

 We had our little sheltie. Dexter, shaved not long ago.  Mima thought he was cold. This is how I found him on her couch. That is a hot water bottle behind him and she has her robe as a blanket. 🙂

Elfie

December 15, 2009

 This is our own personal elf, Elfie. She tells Santa everything the kids are doing. She reports to him at night while we are sleeping. We LOVE her!

Funny Kid Stuff Again

December 5, 2009

Cara got in an argument with her friend and I said “what happened” and she said “I think my anger issue came back” (she is 6) and I said “oh, you have an anger issue” and she said “yes, I called her sassy pants”….LOL. I cracked up, not my best mommy moment!

Generations

November 28, 2009

 This is a pick from Thanksgiving at my neice Amy’s house. My mom is on the left and her great grandson Wesley is on the right.  It is so cool to have all of the generations together.

A Cabin

November 10, 2009

 Van Conversation

Cara- I wish we lived in a cabin.

me- who do you know with a cabin?

Cara- I just want to live in one, people who live in them are lucky.

me- why?

Cara- because of the little refrigerator.

me- huh?

Cara- because they get to have a little teeny refrigerator.

me- you want to live in a cabin because of the little refrigerator???

Cara- Mama, yes, it is MINI!

Okay, so we think our kids want bigger and better stuff  and my child is dreaming of a cabin because of the small fridge. hmmmm.100_4344

Life With a 12 Year Old

November 8, 2009

100_4398Lol- really I love my Ellie Belle very much!!

November 6, 2009

Today, we were in the van before school and Cara had made a picture for Emma and Emma told her she didn’t want it and it hurt her feelings.
So, Emma said our little “before school” prayer and Cara said ” I want to add a prayer” and she said “please God, help no one to get in trouble at school, except Emma”…..I really tried not to laugh in front of them and tell them not to pray bad things on people….but it was funny! Ellie leaned over to me and whispered “that was kinda funny”…100_4188

Kids Getting Bigger

November 3, 2009

100_4297 I told my kids last night I thought they were getting so big and Cara said “I am still little, Mama” and I said “yes, you are the youngest”, then she said “it doesn’t matter how big I get, I will always be your baby” and she gave me a bigggg hug. So sweet. 🙂
