Not someone that Lexi is afraid to be around because the dog thinks she is a littermate and is constantly biting and climbing all over her and her clothes<br />- is one that we can trust to be in a room by herself for more than 10 seconds without her getting into things, chewing on stuff, climbing on things, etc<br />- comes when she is called – she has made us late for appts, missed busses – all due to running away from us and playing hard to get<br />- ultimately leaves the cats alone. We have one cat that seems kind of interested in playing but she does not understand being gentle and that all cats don’t like her so I would say she needs to stay away or at least when we tell her to<br />- actually listens to us when we use our “no” sound – instead of completely ignoring us<br />- stays off of the tables and counters and out of everyone’s food<br />- only potty’s in the yard – not in the house (gives us warning to go out) and not on the deck (makes it all the way into the yard)<br />- will play with our 9 year old, Logan, but does not bite and knows that it is not always play time – like when it is time for homework<br />- stops picking up anything and everything she can find to drive me crazy!!! – plays with her toys!!! ;)kelly phttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369993865523401866noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8839453867185888341.post-2419994750287138312010-09-22T18:45:00.000-07:002010-09-22T18:53:25.729-07:00If I had a Million Dollars....Logan's class assignment was to write a diary entry of what a typical day would be like if he was the richest person in the world. So... his started that he would wake up to the smell of pancakes since he would have someone that cooks for him. In a nutshell, he would spend his day playing video games, watching tv, eating oreos and milk, playing legos and beating the chef at bakugan. My favorite part of the whole diary entry was the last line - 'Being rich will be wonderful because I can have everything that I want but the worst part about it would be that you would have to sign alot of autographs.'kelly phttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369993865523401866noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8839453867185888341.post-67776174051854036672010-03-17T12:50:00.001-07:002010-03-17T12:56:40.219-07:00Luck 'o the Irish<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjLyJUCyr5__1l0BXRokmacuL4c0-JMloMmcA_fDHJ0OS-d7-C6h5JHKEP2zZxNr-oUZx-OxtRCpIA3J0-POhATT-yc1jVrkt8ip1ZHTLabxm3D9GGhJ3jgMeATdYvIAOuWBf-LDJkcZ0/s1600-h/irish+girls.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjLyJUCyr5__1l0BXRokmacuL4c0-JMloMmcA_fDHJ0OS-d7-C6h5JHKEP2zZxNr-oUZx-OxtRCpIA3J0-POhATT-yc1jVrkt8ip1ZHTLabxm3D9GGhJ3jgMeATdYvIAOuWBf-LDJkcZ0/s320/irish+girls.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5449693245591477202" /></a><br />He totally cracks me up!! He loves this shirt and totally wants to change it to 'ALL' instead of 'Irish' after today. Wow...<br /><br />Did I tell you how a couple weeks ago he was telling me how a little boy in his class was asking him why he was offering to do something for one of the girls in the class and I said why? It's nice to do things for other people! And Logan said "Yeh - and how else do you think you get girl friends?!"

People aren't kidding when they say that time flies by quickly!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Little Miss Lu Lu had a great birthday again this year! She decided she wanted to go to Applebees for her dinner and Grandma and Poppy joined us there. Afterwards we sat out at the car and opened presents, sang Happy Birthday and ate the cupcakes that Lexi helped make.

Lexi got her Zhu Zhu pets for her birthday!! For anyone who doesn't know - these are little toy hamsters that are the hottest toy this year and are next to impossible to find - Todd and I had actually waited in line at Toys R Us that weekend and actually got the ones for her birthday!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvQGLRQ73vrXFN1kG_5NvLC6WUwS6zqr4_f6FcmrRzdspaOMifQ_-NkMQ4bA6X4pKE3KWCMbi3oApK_8bYWhXn0pa8PQShi90u2yAVTcjQm5BgQdiTT0nnW5XKoZbwBfP-G5L5pfrvGaE/s1600-h/lexi+5th+bday+car+2.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvQGLRQ73vrXFN1kG_5NvLC6WUwS6zqr4_f6FcmrRzdspaOMifQ_-NkMQ4bA6X4pKE3KWCMbi3oApK_8bYWhXn0pa8PQShi90u2yAVTcjQm5BgQdiTT0nnW5XKoZbwBfP-G5L5pfrvGaE/s200/lexi+5th+bday+car+2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5402174749367031778" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />Then for her friends party she had a party at a local laser place in the inflatibles area so the kids could jump around and slide.

And no end in sight - only one of the adult teeth is barely even pressing on the skin so they are a long time coming! So this is the cute little (big) gap grin we will be treated with everyday! It was so funny today when shortly after he lost the tooth- he tried to say the word 'pennies' and the lisp has appeared. Cute!<br /><br /><br />A look back, for Valentine's day - I decided to make a full fondue meal for the family and our friend Karrie. This was the kids first time trying fondue. They were such good sports about trying new things especially when it took us 5 hours to complete our meal!! Logan's favorites were apples in the cheese, chicken in the bouillion and just eating the rice krispee treats. Lexi's favorites were the celery in the cheese, chicken in the bouillion and just eating the pound cake. No these silly children have STILL not completely decided to embrace the magic of chocolate! Who's are they anyway???<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3A23V51xLsVnhZtg5ReTkkc6mCZ9pQFzF6oHMVrKFAZ20TPFUGi-_pJzpCJ-Ynvu9j6S4I_BpziqB8aKLp4CFWFyOg4zNxM67eDFTHVQdP4358_ASxQanT-sDalu22ckIarHsud_wzcc/s1600-h/vaelntine+1009+family.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 176px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3A23V51xLsVnhZtg5ReTkkc6mCZ9pQFzF6oHMVrKFAZ20TPFUGi-_pJzpCJ-Ynvu9j6S4I_BpziqB8aKLp4CFWFyOg4zNxM67eDFTHVQdP4358_ASxQanT-sDalu22ckIarHsud_wzcc/s200/vaelntine+1009+family.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305739353055107922" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXhzdFRjqGO7z-pOrwuPQP15MjzOJsEKG7f6RgM7r3vWGSWcFhqgOo5-8ACX4vVS3gQ1Ww4dvNhOT9QnuRSsOBQoe1C1UOgPxYI9NVgzLsm5sMVYn5LACcn0U0E2UweaQv7jya6dSu-c0/s1600-h/fondue+kids.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 157px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXhzdFRjqGO7z-pOrwuPQP15MjzOJsEKG7f6RgM7r3vWGSWcFhqgOo5-8ACX4vVS3gQ1Ww4dvNhOT9QnuRSsOBQoe1C1UOgPxYI9NVgzLsm5sMVYn5LACcn0U0E2UweaQv7jya6dSu-c0/s200/fondue+kids.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305739353672447138" /></a>kelly phttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369993865523401866noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8839453867185888341.post-25538790788666288212009-01-28T12:19:00.000-08:002009-01-28T12:26:54.045-08:00Mr. Hole in his face<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAwLqQTL9YM0ShwKohwsVqk7cbyn1BWFAXVUlWj-sqmfe6B2pA3HfsmzGMemPikekC5Z9rhZ7qSqTxdD3HJJhd-veBTFNB48rz7j6SG2BNF9dyx5QHYccjZnBf9htlcmZuWiIcwzute-8/s1600-h/logan+missing+3rd+tooth.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAwLqQTL9YM0ShwKohwsVqk7cbyn1BWFAXVUlWj-sqmfe6B2pA3HfsmzGMemPikekC5Z9rhZ7qSqTxdD3HJJhd-veBTFNB48rz7j6SG2BNF9dyx5QHYccjZnBf9htlcmZuWiIcwzute-8/s400/logan+missing+3rd+tooth.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5296443478050635154" /></a><br />FINALLY lost his 3rd tooth! Now this tooth has been loose for literally 4 months!! About time it finally came out! To add to it - it was so completely loose for the past 10 days that Logan has been twisting it and shoving it outside his lips - pretty nasty looking. His gums were so red from all of the playing he did with it but he just wouldn't yank the thing out (or let us near it). Finally Saturday night he spent the night with our friend Karrie and when Karrie was tickling him and saying she was going to yank it - she touched it with a kleenex and it came out! Complete accident (or so she tells us!) That thing was barely holding on by anything! <br /><br />Now this is Logan's 3rd lost tooth but the first two were loose long enough also that the tooth behind had grown in so much that you really did not see a hole in his mouth when they came out. So this hole in his face is brand new to us!! I am actually having a hard time getting used to it. I look at this kid with the big 'ole gap and realize how much he is growing up!<br /><br />Not ready yet....kelly phttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369993865523401866noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8839453867185888341.post-41564937686677559952008-12-18T10:47:00.000-08:002008-12-18T10:53:09.909-08:00Why I love Christmas...* Santa Claus driving a Metro Bus around Northern Kentucky - made my day!<br />* Lexi 'reading' a book she got as a present.

I know Todd for one had a blast getting to see her! <br /><br />Today mom even took her camera and captured this amazing picture of Lexi enjoying the chance to wear the big 'Cinderella' tutu. Wow how cute is that!!<br /><br />She also got this fun pic of Lexi and Emmy dancing away.

I am recovering well from my surgery and just have to admit I am getting nothing done!! Which of course is the goal of recovering!!! We were crazy the 10 days between Disney and my surgery and then have just been figuring out our life with only one driver and only one parent that can do much of anything while the other hangs out on the chair just watching everyone!! Tough transition! <br /><br />Can't believe my little one turns 4 years old in one week!!!!!!!!! Wow!!! Boy time has changed!<br /><br />I promise to get posting soon as I start getting more things accomplished!

Libby Lu is an all girl store where you can purchase all different kids of 'makeovers' for your little girls to gte all glamified! This was Lexi's first time there since she only let me start painting her fingernails about 2 months ago - the same time she started wearing ponytails in her hair. Her best friend Emmy And her mommy Michelle and baby sis Gracyn) decided to come with us.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo5LU93uzFtUA1jvKalYbdGAoQEhTBS_EaduXgsd-8eUD8Ylt-ENGpTEfXRNvfQ_A4FXqYBOPw8ZXXKWcY4M8Sw6tJPyrxgDaikXUnFTPEmvMLSmx0VtPkZJS7jcZY229Ue7hEaQIMF7M/s1600-h/libby+lu+lexi.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo5LU93uzFtUA1jvKalYbdGAoQEhTBS_EaduXgsd-8eUD8Ylt-ENGpTEfXRNvfQ_A4FXqYBOPw8ZXXKWcY4M8Sw6tJPyrxgDaikXUnFTPEmvMLSmx0VtPkZJS7jcZY229Ue7hEaQIMF7M/s320/libby+lu+lexi.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242254845587663442" /></a><br /><br />It was so stinking cute!!!!!!!!!! !<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3lqEkpWNzrIVtsmQsQ3H37I7k6IvMt23LoffiPc3evBrCtfIJkfOgEmYOjiRVVsNdvIaojUn3PtIIvRSW66iqz0pXGLvh5ahds_ogpRPjhEMbmHfxtVvShDnbOMn6qKojEgv8RovfbPo/s1600-h/libby+lu+emmy.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3lqEkpWNzrIVtsmQsQ3H37I7k6IvMt23LoffiPc3evBrCtfIJkfOgEmYOjiRVVsNdvIaojUn3PtIIvRSW66iqz0pXGLvh5ahds_ogpRPjhEMbmHfxtVvShDnbOMn6qKojEgv8RovfbPo/s200/libby+lu+emmy.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242254685639203922" /></a><br /> Emmy got her hair done first like a pro - she has an older sister so has been there several times before - and she is very much a little girlie girl. Then came Lexi. She had the most intense and unsure face - but she was willing to sit and let the lady do whatever to her hair she wanted - braids, hair spray, knots and twists, bobby pins, glitter, headband - you name it!!! We loved it all but decided the headband was the greatest<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkTaWVipk2UtE8kQctUs4s3lmwotrhm2d_yoHJopkG0wfsQLlrYA2Pu8znHIzlIJ6tyq07jkyxBXBxGzOX4ZUYoKbcnoi8EPEplJdePRESs34A0VlnJHDY5_gQ3zL_pDb8G-HhWw5Ia8M/s1600-h/libby+lu+lexi+back.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkTaWVipk2UtE8kQctUs4s3lmwotrhm2d_yoHJopkG0wfsQLlrYA2Pu8znHIzlIJ6tyq07jkyxBXBxGzOX4ZUYoKbcnoi8EPEplJdePRESs34A0VlnJHDY5_gQ3zL_pDb8G-HhWw5Ia8M/s200/libby+lu+lexi+back.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242254692135511554" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />After the hair came the nail polish - alternating pink and purple with glkitter just like Emmy.

Hopefully she won't decide that this is the way she should always be dressed! Mommy is so not a glam chick - I would need help from someone else to keep her in style!!!<br /><br /><br />Just one last pic of Lexi and Emmy - they are so cute together and truly love each other!! We are a little sad right now - our dear friends are moving out of town in only a couple weeks! Makes us even happier that we got to do these fun little outings with them! We are going to really miss them but look forward to some fun road trips!

And she was excited! There were 6 little girls including her best friend Emmy and they were so adorable to watch. Lexi was so good and tried everything they showed her. But I have to say - as of right now - she is not the most graceful girl on the planet!But as we were climbing into the car she told me "Mommy, I want to go in there again!!!" So yay!!! I can not wait to watch each lesson and I am sure I will go ballistic at her end of the year recital!

And he is going to school all day! Wow! Seems really strange to have him gone all day. We set his alarm this morning thinking he might have trouble getting up especially since he had trouble going to bed last night. But by 7am he was awake and playing Legos. Maybe it is only Mommy who needs the alarmWhat was really strange was the fact him leaving was just so casual. He was chatting with his friend Tristin who lives next door and just ran to the bus without even saying bye to us!! At least he turned and waved to us from the bus. .<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgm5mSIVescUSCNXbQfFnChZqSuMK5v9ZER8KPjfjbCHrUq0YjttzolSTLuzhXAhNpzIUGkns47ArR5DFE57egRcM9JPJaGlbik0wJ3WBbLwP_itMPvtlmyG4iDScAgFOCfljiHC7tPExc/s1600-h/logan+bus+2008.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgm5mSIVescUSCNXbQfFnChZqSuMK5v9ZER8KPjfjbCHrUq0YjttzolSTLuzhXAhNpzIUGkns47ArR5DFE57egRcM9JPJaGlbik0wJ3WBbLwP_itMPvtlmyG4iDScAgFOCfljiHC7tPExc/s200/logan+bus+2008.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5235974461060722802" /></a><br />(he is behind the only window with writing on it of course.) And sadly I only got about 4 pictures!! Now what am I going to scrapbook.... <br /><br />And here is also a gratuitous photo of the adorable Ms Lexi waiting for the bus with Logan. She also had a big day and got to meet her two new teachers at the new preschool that she is starting this year. Two more weeks before she gets to go to school for a couple days to be like her big brother. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgy25li-hr_Ndg6v4cEInuzbICZqQgY5NJ9s1SUAAG7NjHcUE0SRkE19lk1MB6CO8jQ4sF4l5AiNtL5PA_xtsHmz9gyK1OaXY5hT5gi_0JJYwGue-yMSwlOs4BR8xmMmkjXX5AvrZHGZJk/s1600-h/1st+day+school+lexi+2008.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgy25li-hr_Ndg6v4cEInuzbICZqQgY5NJ9s1SUAAG7NjHcUE0SRkE19lk1MB6CO8jQ4sF4l5AiNtL5PA_xtsHmz9gyK1OaXY5hT5gi_0JJYwGue-yMSwlOs4BR8xmMmkjXX5AvrZHGZJk/s200/1st+day+school+lexi+2008.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5235974426030254530" /></a><br />Best wishes to all of yours on their first day of school.kelly phttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369993865523401866noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8839453867185888341.post-40442205660871673572008-08-15T17:55:00.001-07:002008-08-15T18:10:22.750-07:00Things that are making me happy..* Hearing Todd and the kids in the bedroom getting ready to read bedtime stories and espcially when Logan reads to Lexi. Right now Todd is fighting with the two of them and the room has erupted into laughter.<br /><br />* School starts on Monday! And Logan will be a big 1st Grader!!!! Yes it is a little sad having him gone all day but also happy.<br /><br />* Driving down the road with the kids discussing school in the seats behind me - then all of a sudden Lexi saying "Logan you're a cheeseburger head!" And then hearing the two of them break into hysterical laughter (me right with them) I absolutely LOVE that sound!! Of course it then lead to "Sonic Head", "Ketchup Head" and so much more. Maybe I should stop the name calling.... hmmm...<br /><br />* Baileys and coffee (and the company I have when drinking it) need I say more?<br /><br />* In the car again and having Lexi and Logan join me in singing at the top of their lungs a song from the Mitch Hansen Band (inspired by Twilight the books series). The song is called Jacob Black - "You're nothing but a dog - nothing but a dog!!!" <br /><br />* We just had a second Sonic open up in our area!! Diet Vanilla Coke - Yum!!!<br /><br />* The Olympics!! I love watching them!! But I will be so thankful when the time comes for them to be back in the states because I have GOT to stop staying up until <br />1 or 2 in the morning!!! But of course I have to see if Michael Phelps makes all 8 golds!!!<br /><br />* Lexi starts dance next week!! Both Tap and Ballet!!! I am hoping she likes it as much as I did when I was younger!!!!<br /><br />I hope there are little (or big) things out there making you happy everyday!! Have a great weekend and I will post pictures soon from first day of school and dance!kelly phttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369993865523401866noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8839453867185888341.post-51351545374776190132008-07-31T13:17:00.000-07:002008-07-31T14:03:18.443-07:00What is going on now..First and foremost - I think after alot of hassle - the bathroom is done! For such a little room - it actually caused us alot of problems!! And I still have a pair of shorts with a big spot of paint on the back to show where I fell into the wall!! So here is a picture of the paint and a better picture of the shower curtain we based the room on. The room is so small I couldn't get a very wide angle pic - sorry. I think our final step is to get a wall shelving unit and for the kids and I to do a cute little craft based off of the curtain that I can frame for art! One room down 5 + to go!!!! ha-ha!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTE4CX5Dr_jTMrPyRHQBJHc3teia9oLt2amScoaOJs4EX21sLX5LJl-J12MSYbdD4DCmW5guCZAtBz8fHJvtzqb6EEQquviBOi_A-wvCoa4zb7Vks7-0XHVNGRKxaUOV5oUwf6IeohjjE/s1600-h/bathroom+3.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTE4CX5Dr_jTMrPyRHQBJHc3teia9oLt2amScoaOJs4EX21sLX5LJl-J12MSYbdD4DCmW5guCZAtBz8fHJvtzqb6EEQquviBOi_A-wvCoa4zb7Vks7-0XHVNGRKxaUOV5oUwf6IeohjjE/s320/bathroom+3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5229275650091934594" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv02ix1EgiUDVh71byHhEqLVzwws6YXG5LUCWvV1q_QZ62jqsthNrD068LZXn8gLXd6bYhsfIL6mINzaoy-pNYjx87OpWq0Ep-NlPYPrNlL4e_jR4RDUHfKyG_P_jNdh4ISTlXeVmkgdQ/s1600-h/bathroom+2.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv02ix1EgiUDVh71byHhEqLVzwws6YXG5LUCWvV1q_QZ62jqsthNrD068LZXn8gLXd6bYhsfIL6mINzaoy-pNYjx87OpWq0Ep-NlPYPrNlL4e_jR4RDUHfKyG_P_jNdh4ISTlXeVmkgdQ/s320/bathroom+2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5229275659130426242" /></a><br /><br />Lexi is becoming a very inquistive almost 4 year old. Caily I get to answer at least half a dozen - "Mommy why we have cars?" "Why we have houses?" "Why we have forks?" "why we have clothes?" "why we have bathrooms?" and on and on!!! It is actually really cute right now but I am sure soon I will go crazy! Here is a quick picture taken last week while she was posing for me. She is still the sweetest little thing with the funniest personality! My girlfriend Karrie calls her 'a little pocketfull of sunshine'. But I must admit... she has all of a sudden taken on the attitude of 'if I can't have my way I am going to scream and cry!' - I SO wish this will be a short lived thing...... Pray for me.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeE2n-vYoHpR4UwD6P-IF6K9dHLIv5sILxPolPYtjUeCo3kGXjuISd-l189hLPwczGTr1AaHHW2bvuzAn0d4AbpefZgwxzX5gmyBMmhITTmxaibgn67KJypNKnEasgWMTW-QYrNwqyvKU/s1600-h/lexi+july+08.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeE2n-vYoHpR4UwD6P-IF6K9dHLIv5sILxPolPYtjUeCo3kGXjuISd-l189hLPwczGTr1AaHHW2bvuzAn0d4AbpefZgwxzX5gmyBMmhITTmxaibgn67KJypNKnEasgWMTW-QYrNwqyvKU/s320/lexi+july+08.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5229275667385163314" /></a><br /><br />Logan is really picking up in his reading. We are having so much fun watching him get excited about reading and helping to read a book to Lexi every night at bedtime. When we went to the library last week - I came home with 14 books that Logan had picked out!!! Wow!! And since Logan needs money to spend when we go to DisneyWorld - Daddy is being extremely generous and paying him a dollar a day if he reads a book!!! Better than just giving him the money! hee-hee And school starts in only 3 weeks! He is so excited to be in the first grade and to eat lunch at school!! I hope it last for more than just the first week!!!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwyYE7D9WTH3lhh11S1DzQ_nmM7AJ_ZlzdveMXD7xS1UxrkaNwly9C4GL6PAeQHHZwaiTKj6vjBwArQL94MriDAcgTAalSWM9HplkzXh0LAiFN6bb7fkd-DvXLu7KV84Tb7Zhwj9yvRHk/s1600-h/logan+july+08.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwyYE7D9WTH3lhh11S1DzQ_nmM7AJ_ZlzdveMXD7xS1UxrkaNwly9C4GL6PAeQHHZwaiTKj6vjBwArQL94MriDAcgTAalSWM9HplkzXh0LAiFN6bb7fkd-DvXLu7KV84Tb7Zhwj9yvRHk/s320/logan+july+08.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5229275672591974754" /></a><br /><br />This week is Vacation Bible School at church so we have been very busy during the day and since I am co-craft chair - we have had to get there early each morning so I can safely say that we are all tired and in need of a day at the pool!!!!!!!! Next week here we come!!!<br /><br />On the 17th I had a surgery with the plans to remove my right ovary and a mass formed there (cancer marker tests look great so that is not a concern Thank God) but with what they found - they decided to stop the surgery and just schedule me for a complete hysterectomy. Since we aren't in a rush - the Dr has no problem waiting until after our Disney trip in September. So October 7th is the scheduled day of surgery and what a great birthday gift for me!!!! Oh well - what a great excuse to actually get some sleep and to sit around and do nothing and not feel guilty!<br /><br />I have actually gotten a couple scrapbook pages done! Not much and most of them are very plain and to the point but at least I am finally getting back to it! Let's hope this is finally the start of my reinvestment into creativity!!!!!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAgah293w5AADrd4JiBr8KXtaUeRwPvV_UdEATTsJrQzP_BVxGI_NL8gd6wembFuziu-f8jfdITny6grjyQ1urBevnIC4Q3pt0aGykSNnW0LgE2SnP3SKVRrDjs4mp6fLFQkJ7qQWCpWg/s1600-h/caterpillar+page.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAgah293w5AADrd4JiBr8KXtaUeRwPvV_UdEATTsJrQzP_BVxGI_NL8gd6wembFuziu-f8jfdITny6grjyQ1urBevnIC4Q3pt0aGykSNnW0LgE2SnP3SKVRrDjs4mp6fLFQkJ7qQWCpWg/s200/caterpillar+page.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5229275879332034178" /></a><br /><br /><br />And last but definately not least.... I am impatiently waiting for the release of Breaking Dawn the final book in the Twilight Series. My friend and I are going at midnight tomorrow night for the release party and to get our copy. SO... I will not be sleeping much Friday night/Saturday!! So don't call me - I won't answer the phone!!! ;)<br /><br />Have a wonderful weekend and I'll work on getting some more pictures of the kids!<br /><br />Love you all!<br /><br />PS. Please keep in your prayers my Mother in law Mrs. Perry, My Sister in Law Kay and my friends Mom, Mrs. Hogg - they are all battling forms of cancer and are in need of all the healing prayers they can recieve. Thank you much!kelly phttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369993865523401866noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8839453867185888341.post-51155376442789842432008-07-13T19:20:00.000-07:002008-07-13T19:50:29.317-07:00And I thought I would get betterat this blogging!!! Boy I am slacking! I have been very bad lately at just spending all my time sitting on the computer surfing the net, emailing and reading blogs. This is fun but I am doing this instead of scrapbooking, blogging and definately cleaning my house! I have managed to scrapbook about 4 pages in the past couple weeks - simple pages - just getting them done - but I am glad to get back at it! I better get working cause I just spent 4+ hours uploading, deciding on sizes and ordering ALOT of photos from our 2007 Disney trip and my goal was to complete that album before our 2008 trip to Disney!!! And since we only have 9 weeks left before we go.... hmmm... looks like I am in TROUBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So send good scrapbooking vibes my way!!!<br /><br />Since I am so good at lists.....<br /><br />* So around here things have been going along as usual! Non stop but not much to list! We have been hitting the pool alot and trying to make it through our lists of sight words to prep us for First Grade! Logan is really doing good with this whole reading thing! Now, Mommy just needs to set up a routine and actually make sure we spend time focusing on really learning - I can't believe how hard it is for Mommy to get motivated!!! Maybe I am the worst 6 year old!! They do have ADD for adults....<br /><br />* Lexi has taken a big step into being a little girlie girl! She has finally allowed me to paint her fingernails and toenails! Bright pink even! What fun!!! She has been talking so much and is just totally cracking us up with her comments!!!! She and Logan get going into some of their conversations and WOW - we are laughing and wondering if we could market them and make lots of money (think Laurel and Hardy)! I need to work on that promo....<br /><br />* After 6 months of sitting in the garage... I also finally opened the paint we bought and painted the kids bathroom! After every disaster known (falling into the wet wall paint, peeling a spot away with the curtain rod, the border tape completely pulling up the entire area of paint and the cat sticking to the paint! Okay Okay - so the cat didn't get stuck but everything else did happen!!! ;) Todd is now re-caulking and then I have bought towels and rugs and we are hoping by the end of the week to be completed! Yay! One project of MANY almost done!!! To think, we want to paint the entire front room but since it has essentially taken us 6+ months to do one tiny little bathroom.... hmmm... that one just might stay on the list..<br /><br />* I'd like to say that we have been cooking out and enjoying the summer BUT - low and behold, when I decided to get the grill all ready to have a great BBQ (a little late - but oh well) When I lifted the lid to clean it... I found a birds nest with 4 little eggs in it!! I did not have the heart to throw it away so we decided we get to wait out the nesting stage! We saw the mom bird in there a couple days later but actually we have not seen it lately. The eggs are still unhatched so I think we are about to safely proclaim the nest abandoned and get to clean it out without a guilty conscience. With any luck we will be having grilled steak by the weekend!!! Yay!!!<br /><br />Well - that is some of our life lately - I will get some pictures uploaded soon since some of you have been asking to see more kid pictures - especially of Lexi's own designed outfits! Have a great week to everyone! We love you all!!!kelly phttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16369993865523401866noreply@blogger.com1
