Painting pictures

Well you asked for it and here are some pictures of my GOOD intentions to paint this weekend. So ALL day Saturday I vegged! I watched "CSI - Las Vegas" and did 5 loads of laundry and changed sheets (so I guess I was a little productive). So here's to TUESDAY and getting more paint and finishing what I started.

Home from las Vegas

The Excalibur Hotel where we stayed. Or as Kylie liked to call it "The Castle" We were in the left tower on the 12 th floor overlooking the strip.

Well we made it too Las Vegas and back again. And all I can say is it was HOT HOT HOT!!!! It was 100+ everyday! And I don't care if you say it's a DRY heat it's still HOT! And waaaaay too many people for me! Traffic was atrocious! We had a good trip but was I ever ready to come home again. After 5 days in a hotel room and eating in restaurants with a 3 1/2 year old I was thinking my so called "boring" life in good ol' MT. was looking pretty darn good! We played in the pool. Kylie and daddy found the arcade while mommy was at meetings. And Kylie is now and unofficial arcade junkie. The last day we were there she came into our room and stated "Momma look at all the booty I won" Eeeek! And by booty we mean stuffed animals and trinkets. Real treasures to a 3 1/2 year old! Kylie's other favorite past time was to go to the World of M&M store and watch the free 3-D movie. Which she and daddy did 3 times. By the last time she had the 3-D part figured out and was reaching out for the flying items. More Pictures here! (Click on the "here" word) But the lights were pretty, the warm was comfortable for about the first 10 minutes and we had our fill of buffets (only good part here was Kylie ate FREE! YEA!) and I can honestly say I did not spend ONE penny gambling. And believe me I could have since there are now 1 cent slot machines Geesh! Anyway more to come in the following days! But we're back from Sin City and not a story to tell. Oh the exciting life we lead!

This is how you "help" momma cook?

Kylie decided to "help" me by moving in her stool and trying to sleep on it and jsut watch me cook dinner.



Her beloved lammie and a pillow too.



It's tough being 3 1/2 (tho' Kylie INSISTS she is NOT 1/2 and ONLY 3!)

Do you think?

This is what the librarian said Kylie looked liked today with her piggy tails in...the little girl from Monster's Inc. You be the judge.....

How cute is this?

Kylie is FINALLY letting Momma put piggy tails in her hair. Before ONLY Nana could do it. Aren't they cuuuuuute!

Cousin Ganten's 5th Birthday!

The whole gang (brother, sister and cousins) is ready for cake!
" C'mon and sing to me so we can EAT!" It's COSTCO cake Yuuuum!

What you do on rainy days

Play dress up...well sort of. Kylie INSISTS on putting multiple skirts on... too cute all the same!

Kylie's latests stats

At 3 years and 7 months:
Kylie is 30 pounds, and that is at the 20th percentile for weight.
Kylie is 37.75 inches, and that is at the 28th percentile for height.

I better learn how to hem NOW :-)

As seen thru the eyes of Kylie

These are pictures that Kylie took on her Fisher Price Digital camera. She's been asking when "her" pictures could be put on the blog? So here you go! Daddy and Poppa Bob are REALLY TALL!
Daddy and Kylie...Cheeese!
Kylie's catepillar
Up close and personal!

It's WHAT???????

Hard to believe May is here.....where does the time go? Good news tho' We are getting our sprinkler system put in TODAY! Waaahooo! And a rumor has it our contractor just might show up and get to work on our deck coverings. This will be so nice to have some shade on the back of the house. But it's been a "battle" since we're using trusses it had to go thru the city meaning codes, drawings and yadda yadda yadda...JUST GET IT DONE I say! Not much else here. Kylie still loves to go 110 miles and hour on her bike, Mark is getting busy with work, things are slowly starting to roll for me at the store (C'mon tourists!) and our next trip (See ticker to Vegas) is on deck. It's been HOT HOT there and we can hardly wait to see a pool and enjoy it. Kylie and I are flying down and Mark is taking a mini road trip and meeting us. So with that I hope your May has been full of flowers and not May Showers
