Conversation

Alli: Momma, I can't find my green glasses.

Me: I don't know where they are. I don't keep up with all your stuff.

Alli: Why?

Me: It's not my job.

Alli: Will you help me find them?

Me: Nope. I didn't loose them.

Alli: I really, really, really need you to help me find them.

Me: I'm not helping you find them because I have no idea where to start.

Alli (with my sunglasses): Can I use these because I need them to be silly!

Me: You need my glasses to be silly?

Alli: I really think so. I really need them to be silly!

Me: Yes, because I can't be the reason that you have to stop being silly.

Our conversations are full of "really, really, reallys" and "I really think so's" lately.

A run down...

Had my 10-year reunion. It was fun! I'm glad I went. It was good to reconnect with some old friends. The girls got some Mam-maw and Aunt Katy bonding time.


We had Allisyn's family birthday party. It was thrown together in less than a week. It went pretty well. She loved getting to see everyone.


I've been doing pretty good with keeping up with Pilates class. Though I will say that if today's class had been my first class, I probably would not go back! We had a substitute teacher and she really kicked our bums!


Allisyn is loving MDO! I think she will really miss it when they take a break in August! She takes a nap for them too!


Piper is just about to start walking! She can stand up on her own totally unassisted longer and longer every day!


Allisyn turns 3 on Thursday. THREE!! Who said that could happen!?! We are having a joint birthday party with a friend from my Mom's group. Miss M turns 3 tomorrow! It should be a good party!


We are watching Oscar for my brother and SIL while they are on a trip to see her grandma and then to DC! Alli keeps asking if we can keep Oscar...we are working on explaining that 2 dogs are more than enough right now and that Oscar would miss Dustin and Rachel and Felix too much.


A few quotes and convos from Allisyn to leave you with:


Throughout the day we get, "I love you so much mom (dad)."


Me to Piper: I'm gonna throw you away if you don't quit being so clingy.
(No, I would never throw my daughter away.)

Allisyn: Momma, you can't put her in the trash can, she not yucky!

There are many others, but they always escape me when I'm trying to remember them.

Quick Catch Up

My trip with the girls was wonderful!! A lot of shopping, a lot of chatting, and a nice break from the daily routine! I might have spent a little too much money, but that's ok! I of course did what I usually do....spent more on the girls than on me. I bought myself 4 pieces of clothing. One being a $3 Old Navy T-shirt. The girls got lots of clothes, some toys, some bags...that I am still waiting to be delivered....Michael got a couple of shirts. In other words....I still need clothes!! Heehee!



Michael and the girls had a great trip to his parents! They had some rough nights, but we kind of thought they might. They were very happy to see momma when they got home! Momma was also VERY happy to see them!!



Allisyn is now a pro at MDO. She lets them get her out of the car at drop off without any problems. She eats her lunch really well AND she naps for them!! She really enjoys it, like we knew she would!! Piper gets upset when Allisyn leaves the car, but gets excited when we go pick her up! It will be nice when Piper can go too!



Yesterday was my BIRTHDAY!!! Michael had a 3 day weekend so we had a great family fun filled time. Saturday we went to Frontier City!! It was great fun. We got to see the Bob the Builder Show. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but it wasn't that! Allisyn likes it so that is what is important!



Sunday was church which is always a great day! The girls love Bible Class! Piper has started crying when we drop her off, but she cheers up really quickly!! Sunday afternoon Allisyn and I got to spend some time together just the 2 of us. We don't get to do that very often. We both really enjoyed it! We went to B&N and got some books and then we went to Unpluggits and painted some pictures and made a necklace, and played on the toys and made some glitter pictures! It was a great time!



Yesterday I got birthday cake in bed for breakfast! It was baked, iced and sprinkled by Michael and Alli! The first thing Alli said to me when she woke up was, "I want some of your birthday cake!" Then we went to White Water Bay. It was a great time! Even though someone stole my flip flops, we had a blast! Alli really enjoyed the little whale slide. She went down over and over again. Then we had a fun family dinner! It was indeed a great birthday!!
