Faces

Handsome face.

Mid-roll face. (Still handsome)

"Being a chef" face.

Queso and I had to go inside tonight because we were getting cold, and THIS child stayed outside begging for "more" of being showered by the hose. Weirdee.

Enlarge the pic and enjoy "hose shower" face.

Things making me happy today:

1) My husband and daughter taking a nap, and her waking up the sweetest ever. They went straight for the crackers, and everything he was doing was hilarious to her.



2) Paige in her peacoat.

3) Both babies getting to visit their uncles Ken and Rob, and their aunt Joanne.

4) This boy and his smile. And even his angry screams when something falls out of his grasp.


5) Working on a quilt, and having my hair styled, and being told I was "Oh! Oh! Gordous! (Gorgeous-Veronica always says that while doing Paige's hair)

6) A nice walk in the warmer weather.


Now then, it's the birthday of one of my best friends today.

Connie, or Consuela, as she's better known. Connie is funny and laid back, and also maybe the best gift giver around. Here's a little more about her. Happy Birthday Connie!

Bombshell

I'm just sitting at the computer feeding Cason, and looking at pictures. Her hair just dropped a bomb on me, that's all. Rocks my socks.

Dancing, Dinosaurs, Dining Out, and Day of My Seester's Birth

Paige's older cousins Alkex and Faif (Alex and Faith) are spending the night, and she couldn't be happier about it. They are having tons of fun.

Dancing after their bath:


Being chased by loudly roaring dinosaurs:

BEING the loudly roaring dinosaur in hot pursuit:


Meanwhile, Alex was running a restaurant, with Jess and Cason as patrons:


I snuck this picture of their order when the waitress wasn't paying attention:

Then this one, later on, when the order was becoming slightly extravagant for 2 diners, in my opinion:

P.S. Jess is being given his "receipt" at this very moment. Alex doesn't kid around.

P.P.S. Now Jess and Cason gave Alex a "generous tip" for the "excellent service" and they "will be returning to this establishment". In reply Alex said "Okay, just give me the money." Haha. I'm pretty sure I got all of that word for word. None of them even know I'm listening to them. Silly and naive, they are.

P.P.P.S. Faith is now employed at the restaurant, and so far I heard her say "Coming right up."

That's all, finally. Except.........that it's NOT!

Their mom and dad are out at dinner right now, because it's their mom's (and my sister's) birthday. Happy birthday to my oldest sibling.

She's beautiful and funny, and she is a great mom to her girls. She's naturally very nurturing, to them, and everyone else around her. She takes care of all of us if we need it. We love you Misty, hope your birthday was great!

Potty Training and a Feast

There's a girl I know who is doing great with potty training, and hasn't gone potty in her diaper for like 48 hours. The same girl cooked us quite a feast last night. So much food, she ran out of cookware and had to use cutting boards and teacups to cook some of it.

Slide Poses

For some reason, Paige went down the slide like this today:

Then she stayed in the pose long enough for me to take a few pictures.

I'm posting this just because he's sweet. And oh so cute.

Circus Baby

We went to the park today, and Cason had his tongue sticking out as always. A little girl who followed us around for a good 10 minutes told Jess Cason was silly, (because of his tongue) and that we should put him in the circus. We're going to keep him instead.

Picture not really related.

I was helping Paige climb this ladder thing on the playground and the little boy that had just reached the top slipped and fell. It was great, I got to try and catch him with one hand, while still supporting Paige with the other. Of course I failed miserably and didn't even slow his descent. I do think I kept his head from slamming into the metal bars on the way down though, so that's something. His mom didn't seem to think I threw him down, so that was good too. And then I asked my sweet girl if she wanted to pick up the truck he dropped when he fell, which she did, and brought it to him while he was still screaming. She's a honey.

So are these two:

I spied them swinging together and having a talk, so I took secret pictures.

But then I got caught.
