and made it this...

from this...

to this...

and this...

funny things kids say...

so i'm sitting at the computer reading emails and b comes in and starts talking and playing. she drops something on the floor and says "bam". i instinctively said "what did you just say" thinking it was a different word." and she said, "i said bam mommy, and then i said bam chick-a jam jam"... and i'm still laughing as i type as tears are filling my eyes. oh, the silly things kids say.

i've been tagged...

i was just tagged by my friend heather. i've been tagged before but didn't know how to link so now that i know, here goes...

1) Link to the person who tagged you.
2) Post the rules on your blog (copy and paste 1-6).
3) Write 6 random things about yourself (see below).
4) Tag 6 people at the end of your post and link to them.
5) Let each person know they have been tagged and leave a comment on their blog.
6) Let the tagger know when your entry is up.Ok, here it goes. . .

1. i hate being barefoot in the house so i'm always wearing slippers or slipper socks (with grippies of course).
2. i rub my ear when i'm tired, bored, or concentrating. it's been a habbit since i was born and my dad tried to convince me that if i didn't stop, i would have a dumbo ear...it looks pretty normal and it's been almost 30 years.
3. i just made 52 cheerleading bows for a good friend of mine - boy have they evolved over the years.
4. i was set on just having two precious little girls and now i am starting to get the baby itch again - thanks to many outside influences. anyone want to comment on that???
5. there are 11 biological granddaughters on my mom's side, no boys - which is one of the outside influences for the random thing mentioned above.
6. sometimes i run and hide in my bedroom and shut the door when i get a phone call. for some reason my children flock to me, throw tantrums, scream as loud as they can, try to get my attention by saying "mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy......." when i'm on the phone. what's up with that? cuz i know my kids aren't the only ones who do it.

ok, now i'm tagging...

1. amy
2. alyssa
3. angela
4. gina
5. shiya
6. stacy

have fun!! love you girls!

why does b need a puppy when she has mali?

these pictures are terrible. my phone is only good for still shots - and it's really not that good at those either - but i had to take a picture of this. chris and i were meeting with a friend and the girls were responsible for keeping themselves occupied and happy. well, apparently this did the trick. b tied a ribbon around mali's paci and proceeded to lead her around the room as if it were a leash. it was pretty hilarious.

making...and eating mud pies

mali just sits there and watches her big sister work her magic
getting dirty
putting on the finishing touches
apparently it was yummy...mali had a bite.

our sweet friends




chris and i recently went to blue springs, mo to visit our friends that moved away a couple years ago. we miss them terribly but LOVE to go visit!

being small has it's advantages...

joe the plumber??

what can i say...it was too cute not to post.

happy halloween!

notice the super cool dangly earrings that only princesses can wear...
sleeping beauty lost her glass slipper...we're getting our princesses confused.


fall harvest






b's fall harvest party was last week and we had such a fun time eating everything pumpkin. this is her prek class at hope and her teacher, Mrs. Garcia, whom we LOVE!

the naked duster


b loves to dust because she likes to use the little duster thing that's so convenient. anyway, last weekend she decided to dust in the nude...i wonder if that makes it more fun?

sweet kisses

when you ask mali for kisses she will either pucker up - as seen above - or smack you in the face...you never know what you're gonna get...it's a real good time.
