Give me your opinion...

I've had it up to HERE with that woman named Shelley. You see, she went and got my little brother's name tattoo'd on her!! WHAT IS THIS?? I'm the first born! Why did she get HIS name first? Ooooooh, I'm so upset. Just wait.... I'll be a tween soon and she'll regret the day she got his name first....
So I did what any angry child would do... I designed my name, too. Now she has no excuses, she has to go get my name as a tattoo as well. What do you think? Just like my brother's tattoo, this is an ambigram - meaning it can be read right-side up or upside down. (if you hold your head upside down you can still read it) What do you think? Since the letters are small, I thought she could do some pretty lavender shading behind the letters and leave the letters in black. ?? Please give me your thoughts and/or tell me if you can't read it. Or how I could change the "d" and the "e" since those were the hardest letters to make work...

Happy St. Patty's Day!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!! While my parents were hard at work, I went to a party at Miss Samantha's house! She took some photos and shared with us so I could post them here on my blog! Think I look good with green hair?
And then a few days later, I saw these sitting on the kitchen counter - and of course I had to try them on!!

Talk about Bed Head!

If there is one thing I'm good at - it's having MARVELOUS bed head every morning! So it was high time I showed it off to the world!

Joy Ride!

For Christmas, Grammy and Gramps got Jude and me a fun little wagon that we can ride in! It's been way too cold to play with it, but we are starting to get into some nice Spring weather now. So Dad pulled it out of the box the other day and put it together! And off we went down the driveway, across the street and into the park! I loved it!!!!

Exhibits A and B

As I think I've posted before, I have given up on naps. But about once a week or so, I'll crash. Problem is, when I crash it's when I least expect it. So I'm not always in the best place or position to be sleeping. Naturally, my family thinks this is the funniest thing alive and always takes my photo... See Exhibit A.
And Exhibit B.

Pretty!


Pretty!! My mom decided to be brave and get a pedicure. I said she was being brave because my Grammy just had a horrible accident while getting a pedicure and ended up having to go to the doctor. She has a major infection and probably needed a skin graft. If she was here in Missouri and saw her normal doctor, I think the doctor would have demanded she sue the salon. It's sickening what that man did to my poor Grammy's feet. This is the first time I've thanked Jesus for Grammy having neuropothy (I can't spell tonight - but that means that she has no feeling) in her feet. Anyway... My mom wanted her toes to look pretty, so she went and got a pedicure. When she got home, I told her that her feet were pretty and quickly asked her to paint my toes. So she found a similar color and painted mine. And she even put little white flowers on my big toes like hers! My flowers only lasted about five minutes though...I picked them off. I wanted to hold them.

Twin Size Bed


In our trip to Southern Missouri, my family stayed with our cousins Lydia, Jeremy, Clayton and Landon. Clayton is two weeks older than me and Landon is two weeks older than Jude! You would have thought Lydia and Mom planned this - but it was pure coincidence... Anyway, when we stayed at their house I got to sleep in a twin bed all by myself! But as you can see, I didn't sleep the normal way (go figure - I never sleep very normal). I liked this twin bed - especially since at home I sleep in a toddler size bed still!

Family Time

BUGS!!!! While down in Southern Missouri, I discovered the biggest bugs of my life! They were all over the ground and they were bigger than my hand! They were big and blackish brown and I was so scared of them! Everywhere you stepped on the ground, you stepped on them and they crunched under your feet. And then Aunt Pam showed me that they were all over in the tree above us!! OH MY GOSH!! So I covered my head so the bugs wouldn't fall on me! What I didn't understand the most was how no one else was scared of these massive bugs that were multiplying by the second... They were just laughing at me and my reaction to these bugs, which they were calling pine cones.
Finally Grammy took pity on me and picked me up so I didn't have to step on the bugs anymore. Thank you Grammy!
I was happy to see Grammy and Gramps. And Uncle Eric came in too! But I am still really scared of him. When he tried to get a photo with me...well, this is the best we could get because I was squirming so much to get away from him.
And I just liked this photo of me and Mommy....

Goodnight Great Grandpa

My Great Grandpa passed away not long ago. As much as we all miss him, we must rejoice because now he's jumping for joy up in Heaven. He's feasting at massive tables with Jesus, and living in mansions built just for him. And he's not alone - he's with Great Grandma again! Best of all, he's happy again. I know it's strange to say the funeral was wonderful, but it was. It was very touching.... Even to me at my young age. And I was very happy to see Grammy, Gramps and Uncle Eric again.


This last flower arrangement was the one for all of us great grandkids...

Two Year Photoshoot

When I turned One Year Old, my mom did this photo shoot of me... So when I turned Two Years Old, she tried to re-create it.... But this is all she got....

Bad Breath

In a few days I'll get to see a lot of my family at my Grandpa's funeral, so my mom wanted me to ask a question out here for the masses. And this is a good place since most of my readers are parents....

I have bad breath. I eat all the same foods as my parents, but I can't drink what they drink. They drink pop, but I'm not allowed that. So I get milk, water or juice.

I can't use mouthwash, I don't understand the concept of not swallowing it. And for the same reason, I have to use floride free toothpaste. And if you have ever used that stuff - it doesn't freshen your breath. I brush 2-3 times a day, but that obviously doesn't help. So I am asking for help - how can I freshen my breath?

Prayers Wanted

Please pray for my family... Tonight at 5pm, my Pa Pa (the other one) passed away. He's not been feeling good for a while, but blood clots got worse over the weekend taking him to the hospital where he coded. He passed away tonight. Please keep my mother's family in your prayers. Thank you.
