My Faborite Too!

Earlier this week as I was doing some work around the house, CoCo asked if I'd play a game with her. My passing reply was something like, "Maybe later when I finish up my work." She then came back to me with this thought, "When we gonna have a play day, Mommy? A day when we play and NO working. Dat's me faborite!"

(long "life" pause by mommy)

We were at the park within the next half hour!

Honestly, it's my "faborite" too!

STOP IT! Don't even think about judging me for those PJ's!

The point is simple. We are AT THE PARK! :)

All tuckered out!

Play Dough!

Any guesses what this creative creation is?

It's "A Lion with a Nose", of course!

Skype!

First, I want everyone to know that we skyped LONG before Oprah made it a household word! It's been our primary mode of communication with my parents for many years!

So, OF COURSE CoCo and I made a cake, lit candles and sang Happy Birthday to my mom over Skype! My mom made a wish and CC blew out her candles. My only regret: we didn't have time to get balloons and hang streamers! :)

Below is a photo that my mom took from their side of skype. Fun, eh?!

Happy 60th Oma!

Happy Birthday, Mom!

I hope your day is EXTRA special! Wish we were there to celebrate with you!

Above is my FAVORITE photo of my mom!!

My mom (far right) and her twin sisters, Sherrie and Sandee.

He! He! He!

I think I recall her talking about how they used to roll their hair with pop cans to get the EXTRA large/high curls!

My Mommy and me!

Hugs and Kisses to you Mom! We all love you so very much!

EIGHT MONTHS!!!

So, that means 246 nights of interrupted sleep for her parents!

Graci has yet to sleep a full night... her record is 8.5 hours (waking at 4:30 AM).

Yet, she is a very happy baby! She loves to talk and make all kinds of silly noises! Her newest trick is giving slobbery wet kisses! She keeps us all giggling with her belly laugh that is quite contagious. We love her dearly!

Meet Roxy!

Sydney introduced CoCo to a little hamster!

CoCo held her every opportunity she got!

Another Birthday Celebration!

Aunt Edie Celebrates her 70th!

Nosey Neighbor?

Slush Day!

Well, not quite the snow day we thought we'd have... instead it started raining and the snow quickly disappeared. But, we managed to have some fun before it did melt away!

Umbrellas and slush puddles = extra wet!

Grandma helped build "Nora".

And snow castles, of course!

Safe Bet?

Snow Day Tomorrow!
