piggy back

I just rely on other peopleses fab posts to cushion my...uh...stuff.

(really my brain needs a boost. I can't think of anything interesting to say! Waxing eloquent is not my skill. I must say I am pretty darn fabulous at re-capping movies or tv shows. And I am a pro at enjoying a nice chocolate...or ten. and give me a good book! Nothing will get in my way of finishing that bad boy! NOTHING! That my friends is dedication and attention span. shazah.)

So Wanna know what I'm doing this weekend?

LOOKEE HERE!!!

but please (because you love me) subsititute all positives about yours truly.

xoxoxoxo

love you!

kind of like an update

Wendy's prize for winning the contest is one it's way.

NO I'm not posting a picture...unlike my creative loverly sister, my prizes come from Target.

Still good. Target ROCKS!

...and just for the record, I don't laugh EVERY time my kids fall down. Just when I think laughing will keep them from crying. Couldn't you hear the thoughtful pause of contemplation before the chuckle presented itself? I was thinking what would be the best for HER. I wasn't amused. Not at all. And she didn't cry. My toughy. She was just a little embarrassed but once she looked around and saw nobody else was there she pirouetted her way back into the spotlight of...hmmm...the spotlight of...drrr.

So this is funny. My dear boy, Carter.

Not the stinky one - yet.

Last night when I put him to bed he kissed me and got my nose.

"Oh, I think I missed." he said.

Then I tucked him in and as I was leaving reached over to shut his closet door.

"Uh Mom. Could you open that?"

"What? you want your closet door open?" (who would even want their closet door open?)

"Yeah. Cause then I wont be scared when I have to open it, cause it will already be open."

He's working through a lot of fears right now.

mary

She's a funny gal.
Check out this interesting and imformative post on her blog.
You learn something new every day, eh?

she loves to dance

Erin LOVES her dance class.

She dances all over everywhere like a pretty dancing princess.

She comes to me during the day often and daintily puts out her hand and asks

"May you dance with me?"

Here is a little video clip of Erin dancing during a lunch break at Animal Kingdom.

over the grumps

Grinchy would not quit until I took a picture with him.

He was quite cuddly soft.

Cassy and Seth LOVE these!

and now so do we!

Those braces really paid off...

(there are a lot of fun effects on that picnik web site.

I tried all of them in attempts to make the menu planning for the week go away. It hasn't.)

trick-or-treat

Here we have a hobo and a kung-fu princess.

And this here is a knight and Indiana Jones.

It was a "raid the dress-up box and see what we can find" Halloween.
My only gripe is that nobody was handing out chocolate.
So I have not been gorging on candy like usual,
which I guess is a good thing in the long run.

i open at the close

The Golden Snitch!

I'm telling you my sisters are

amazingly creative, clever and awe-inspiring.

This one is all Cassy.

(Ohhhh, Mary. I wish it was me.)

So, yea to my lovely Aunt Wendy (who I love even if she did CHEAT!)

I am off to go look for something to give her.

My sewing machine is broken. My skillz there are minimal anyhow.

(I can make a mean dishrag bag however. Haven't seen any ladybug towels yet though.)

Maybe I'll give her a coupon for a Calico goodie. (heads up Cal-Can.)

So while I'm looking around, check out my Cassy-sis' blog.

It's highly entertaining.

(Her videos are a hoot. Thanksgiving 2006.

Nothing better. The Father's day ones are awesome too.)
