The Munchkin

Here are the first pics of Munchkin #2! I thought it was going to be 3D, but it wasn't, that is Ok, it was still cool to see. The baby is looking good so far. Kinda cute to see a little nose already.

Kids say the funniest things...

Everynight before Ali goes to bed and before meals we pray. The only words she gets out are Jesus and Amen (sounds like May-men). We also read her bible stories alot, take her to church and just generally teach her about Jesus. Yesterday morning I went in her room to wake her up and she was sound asleep. I sang to her and she woke up. When she opened her eyes she said, "Hi Jesus!". I kinda laughed and said "no sweetie it's Mommy" and she said "Oh, Mommy."

Glow in the Dark Toothbrush

Ali needed a new toothbrush desperately. I went to Aldi on Sunday afternoon for groceries and this was the only child's toothbrush they had. Best $0.99 ever spent!

My New Jungle Gym

Our across the street neighbors gave us this jungle gym for Ali that their grandchildren have outgrown. She loves it and it is just the perfect size for her to play and climb without getting hurt. I made them a basket of cookies for their generous gift.

Fun at the Park

We took Ali to the Park on Saturday evening and had a pizza picnic and played in the sand. She had a blast.

Proof of My Micheal Jackson Birthday

I have told many of you about my greatest birthday on earth. The year I had a MJ birthday party. My Mom, Dad and Aunt Beatle threw it for me. There were posters, glittery gloves, Thriller and of course 9 kids best attempts at break dancing. The best part: The MJ cake. Here is the proof. I am no fair weather fan. I still love MJ. Beneath the freaky nose, white skin, long hair, feminine voice, Neverland, bubbles the monkey, child molester...he is still in there singing Billy Jean dancing on the light up sidewalk with the tigers! I love you Micheal!

Pretty in Purple

I took Ali P. to have her picture taken today. I try to do it every 6 months or so. Portrait Innovations rules and is cheap ($10) for a boat load of pics, if you can resist getting more than one pose. I was going to just send the grandparents, aunts and uncles photos, but just tell me what size you would like since you probably already have frames. The pic below is a little fuzzy cause I used a scanner. They are wonderful in person!

Dancing Machine

Ali loves to dance. She dances everyday. She loves to listen to music and dance and make her stuffed animals dance too. Today she was especially groovy while listening to "We Didn't Start the Fire" by Billy Joel

Feeding the Ducks: Aftermath

Yesterday morning for Ali's breakfast I decided to make her cinnamon toast. She likes this breakfast and I ussually make it, cut it into 4 strips and serve it to her. Yesterday morning was not different, except when I gave her the toast she started ripping it in tiny pieces and throwing it on the floor. She was still feeding the ducks.

Pregnancy Update

Things are going well. I seem to have rounded the bend with the relentless nausea and haven't had to take my "puke pills" in about 2 weeks. Yeah! Much thanks to my Mother-in-law and Mom for taking care of Ali when I just couldn't. Lifesavers. The baby is doing well. I heard the heartbeat at an appointment last week. My health is good as well. Blood pressure is great and no gestational diabetes yet! Woo Hoo. Thanks for your prayers and well wishes!

Feeding the Ducks

We took Ali to feed the ducks for the first time last evening...she really enjoyed herself! She yelled duck, duck, duck, birdie which was funny. That is a whole lotta poop we are sitting in.

Don't Mess with Me!

Playing...

Big Bird and I just went shoe shopping...what do you think?
