playing dress up

my parents brought some more stuff over from their attic. looky! i was getting the dress out to put away and my honey said, “you know, i’ll bet that dress will be too big on you now.” and i took the bait. “ya think?” “yep.” i didn’t think i’d be that excited to put it on. it’s been seven years. i wanted to keep it on all day and be princess all over again! and look at my angels with me. the only thing better than your wedding day is 7 years later in your living room playing dress up with your littleuns runnin’ around excited because mama looks like a princess.

yes, that’s my girl!


here i am a dressed in my brothers’ clothes.

happiness…

(originally published May 29, 2006)

random thoughts on things that have made me happy lately… and some is not for the squeamish…

i just read lee ann’s post about her missing rosie and phillip. i’m SO happy for them! and i’m SO sad for me. but i really believe it’s where they’re supposed to be and that helps so much. i love them. and i’m so excited about their new start.

i fixed like 40 seussian pancakes to freeze the other day and the boys ate about 4 each of the green and blue ones. so… last night my middlest goes to the bathroom and says, “my poop is greenish-backish” his daddy goes to investigate since he’s been sick lately and i hear hysterical laughing from the bathroom… as daddy said it may be the best poop i’ve ever seen – crayola green. not sick green, mind you, bright, neon, crayola green. awesome. he was so proud. and my oldest son was so jealous he promptly went to the bathroom to try and compete. the little brother sat guard on the step stool. nope. nothing like the green winner!

chicken little is by far THE best movie i’ve seen lately. not just out of kid movies. the best by far of all.

while watching chicken little this morning for the 15th time, literally, my middlest says, ” uh-oh, dum” (gum). i look down and he has gum stuck on his t.t. yep. so i help get it off, he takes it from me – i think to take to the trash – nope, back in the mouth before i can say, “gross”. oh well. we’re building immunity. we’re building immunity. everyone with me now, “we’re building immunity.”

i warned you.

my living room is so clean. my honey and i put the scrub down on it.

my girl has taken a sudden interest in clothes. she brings ‘em to me, holding them to herself, and i put them on her. then she walks around so proud. since most of the clothes we have sitting around are boy clothes, it’s extra cute. this morning her picks were a soccer shirt and her oldest brother’s batman underwear. pics to follow. so cute.

i like csi. i have a hard time admitting this. i’m addicted. every night. i love grissom. and greg, and nick. and thanks to dvr i’m catching all the old ones. they’re new to me. i just finished watching the one where nick gets kidnapped and then saved. good stuff.

i like charlie and lola. you should watch it. more good stuff.

it’s a 3 day weekend for my man. yea!

my oldest’s new school. it’s so pretty. and the classes are so cute. it makes me want to be a teacher. kinda. okay, i just want a classroom, not really the kiddos to go with it. :)

we have air in the living room. aaahh.. if you’ve been to our house in the last month, you’ll know how great that is!

i think that’s it for now. i’ll try to get pics on next time. thanks for tuning in.

my man!

me and my girl
