Wordless Wednesday–Selfies

“Laugh With Me!”–Part 27

January 31st

A random day…K: “Is it a special occasion?” Me: “No.”  K: “What was yesterday?” Me: “Um. Thursday? Why?” K: “Was it Auntie Nae’s birthday?” Me: “No. That was Wednesday….yesterday was Miss Linda’s (a friend she hasn’t seen in a while) birthday.” K: “Oh good!  Let’s go down to the ice cream shop and CELEBRATE!”

February 16th

K: “Look Daddy!  I’m eating.  I can’t talk so I’m doing sign language!” She holds up three fingers and then makes an O and then the three fingers again. W – O – W.

April 22nd

At Mexican food.  She has a really hard time listening to my suggestions for clothes and will often wear summer outfits in winter or spring and vice versa.  She was wearing a sundress and it was barely 50 degrees out.  T said, “Bug. Sit up and eat please.”  She was curled up in the booth shivering with her head under the table.  “I can’t. I’m trying to survive by keeping myself warm.”

April 24th

“Mommy! I’ve got 8 spelling words correct in a row! I guess I’m a professional at this!”

May 16th

T had to go to a business meeting in town and wore a suit, which he rarely does.  When he walked in the kitchen to tell the girls goodbye K said, “Wow!  Daddy! You look like the president! Presidents always wear black and white like that.” S pipes up, “No he looks like a gwoom!”

Father’s Day Weekend

Another busy weekend has flown by!  We had a impromptu sleepover with our cousins on their way through to Grandma and Grandpa’s house!  The girls stayed up REALLY late and were exhausted the next morning, but they had so much fun!

On Saturday it was the annual garage sales so we made the trek out with several friends from church.  We got up super early (for us) and drove out.  We actually had a really good time despite the rain and cold temperatures.  Peanut entertained us all with her happy laughter.  She was great even though she usually gets about two hours more sleep than she’d had. 

She and T were playing a tickling game at one house.

It was so cute I had to get a video!

Happy girl!

The kids were getting pretty miserable after a couple of hours of soaking rain so they were happy to find this little house for sale at one place.  They played in it while the Dad’s walked back to the cars and brought them to us so we didn’t have to walk any further.

We got some great deals on clothes, books, a few toys, some Christmas lights, winter boots, and more.  This is what the kids looked like just a few miles out of town.

I loved how Peanut crossed her legs while she slept.

On Sunday morning I had to be to worship team by 8, but the girls were already up so we let Daddy open his presents really quick.  His big presents were nerf bars for his pickup and a new bike, but we also framed him a picture of the girls from T-ball.

Then I had to get a picture of my favorites.

After church we ran into town to meet up with the whole clan for lunch.  The girls had a great time with their cousins!

We brought Grandma home with us because she has graciously agreed to come out for the week and take care of Peanut while Bug, Boo, and I are at VBS. So nice! 

We had to stop by Walmart on the way home and the girls got stuck in the book section.  My three little bookworms. :)

We headed to Noni and Papa’s to drop some things off and then since we’d finished lunch at 3:00 and weren’t really hungry for a full dinner we stopped and and got cheesy bread and milkshakes for dinner!  We made sure to tell the girls that it was a once in a blue moon treat! Haha :)

Happy Father’s Day to all the wonderful fathers we know!

Parade

Last Saturday we didn’t have any plans (for the first time in two months) so we decided to head over to the next town and check out their town days.  The girls LOVE parades!  Peanut was very impressed this year!  She was pointing and shouting, “Yook!  Yook!”

And then when they got close she just stared and stared.

Here’s a little video I got of her.  She wasn’t as loud when she saw me videoing, but it was pretty hilarious to watch her get so excited.  When they horses went by she was shouting, “Neigh!  Neigh!”

The girls had an extra good time because we ran into their friends right before the parade started. K had a panama jack look going on. :)

Here is our town’s float.

And I thought this one was really neat!

But this was my favorite.  It was Alice in Wonderland, which isn’t my favorite story, but the float was majorly impressive! 

It’s hard to see all the details but they did an awesome job!  I heard the announcer say they won the grand award or something so I guess others agreed.

After the parade we went over to check out some of the booths and get some fried, fair-type food.  We spent the rest of the day cleaning out the basement so I was glad we had a fun family morning!

Funny Friday

Happy Friday!

“Dat Funny?”–Part 13

I have been so bad about keeping up with these!

February 6th – both recorded by Noni

We picked up a pizza for the next night and S wanted to carry it out.  As she was maneuvering out the door she said, “Don’t lose me in the street where I could get runned over because I am your granddaughter!”

At Chuck E. Cheese: the lady comes out and says Chuck E. will be appearing in 5 minutes. Boo wanted OUT of there!  We went to Lifeway next and while walking across the parking lot she says, “Chuck E. Cheese doesn’t come into this store, right Noni?”

February 8th

Sitting next to me while I was working on the computer…“Mommy! You know who T is.  He is your husband.  And I am your child.  Coloring. This is Daddy.  Does he look pretty handsome? I would appreciate it Mommy if you would want to color this.  Did you think it looked like your husband?”

February 13th

Giving S and A a bath: “Look at her hair Mommy!  Do you like what I did to it? It makes her look like a human!”

February 15th

The girls were playing Anna and Elsa in the backseat of the car while we were driving.  I overheard this conversation…K: “Sorry, my husband is stinky!” S: “That’s ok, mine is too.” K: “Why are they stinky?” S: “Because boys are STINKY! Isn’t Daddy stinky?”
