It's all PIMPED out...

Kylie got all new accessories for her bike. A Basket, a bell AND a ringy dingy thingy (bring bring), tassels and knee/elbow pads (so we can practice with no training wheels).

She thinks HER bike is the coolest bike EVER! And she even commented this when we were at a friend's birthday party yesterday and she got a new bike and Kylie told me "my bike's cooler Momma!"

Oh and add the flag from when the lawn guy came and fertilized our yard and it's complete!

Dear Pookie

This is for you.....

Dear Pookie,
I am writing you this letter so when you are old enough to read AND understand it you will. I am going to keep track of how many nights you come into our room between the hours of 12-2AM and say "I'm not sleepy Momma" so when you are a teenager I can remind you of this fact as you sleep your days away! As I lay in bed with you last night after 3 songs and you kicking me AND snoring I remind myself that it was YOU who came in and said "I'm not sleepy Momma". I think you are "waking" up and just in a bad habit of coming in to get us. I say "waking" because you SEEM to be but then I find out the next morning you don't even remember the whole incident GRRRRR! Now don't get me wrong I LOVE YOU but geesh Momma's need their sleep too. So when you read this remember when you are a teenager I just "might" do this to you too. AKA remind you "Kylie you're NOT sleepy".......
Love your Momma who is off to take a nap!

Tag I'm it......

Ok, So here I go. I was tagged by Dusty and now I need to post 7 random things about myself.
1. I am 5'10 1/2" tall. NOT 6' as my mother might tell you. And my hubby Mark is 6'5". So we call ourselves "mutants" in a very Loving way :-)
2. I travelled to Germany, France, Thailand and Hong Kong in High School. Now I have the travelling bug but not as much fun when you don't have mom and dad paying for it!
3. I drive a Red Dodge Durango. My first SUV. I LOVE it! We got it right after we got home from China (2004). We needed more room and Mark already drives a pick up and I was tired of always bending over in my Maxima.
4. I met my husband thru his mom (my 7th grade English teacher). She told me he was tall (a big plus) and had a good personality! Somethings only a mother would say :-) We've been married 11 years.
5. My parents have been married 44 years and I'm so proud of that fact!!!
6. My dream vacation would be to go to Bali/Fiji (I'm not too picky which) and stay in one of those huts over the ocean.
7. I HATE thunder storms. Was not a good thing when I live in tornado alley in Oklahoma. Eeeeeek!

So now I'm taggin you my friends...you're IT!
1. Michelle -an online friend waiting and waiting for their daughter Sophie. And a BIG Disney fan!
2.Dana - an online friend who we are meeting in December for the first time - YEA!!!!! Another BIG Disney fan!

Who's right here?

This is a conversation we had with Kylie at lunch today.
Kylie:"Daddy I think the back doorbell is getting lower"
Daddy:"No, Kylie I think you're growing so it just seems to be getting lower as you grow taller."
Kylie:"NOOOO Daddy I'm serious it IS getting lower!"
As if Daddy was joking :-)

Tee hee!

Kylie likes to get in bed with us in the morning and snuggle and watch cartoons. Well the other morning she was being a bit squirmy so Daddy said "Hmmmm, where did this foot come from that is kicking my legs?"
Reply "Daddy, it's attached to my leg Silly!"
From the mouths of babes!
