A few of my favorite things to do ... this week....

Kaylee's little buddies!

We came home from a trip to the grocery store and mommy gave kaylee the "bear" tub of animal cookies. Mommy thought that this would enable her to get the groceries unpacked in a very peaceful manner. Then Kaylee proceeds to pick up the bear tub smile at me and walk out of the kitchen. I figured she went into her playroom to sit on her bed and eat her snack, which is what she usually does. Then I hear this giggling and then I heard her squeal with delight.... so I peak around the corner only to see this.......

Her little hand reaching through into the dog's bedroom.....

uh oh busted, but here mommy you can have a cookie too........

ok, I'll eat one too......

Look mommy I'll show you what the dog's did when they first saw me.....

And this is what they look like when I give them a cookie, so of course being the great mommy that I am, I let her turn around and continue to feed patch and cooper the animal cookies. ha ha

PHOTO SHOOT.... SHORT LIVED

Mommy and Kaylee decided one day that it would be fun to have a photo shoot. We got out our gear and picked out our outfits..... we were all set! We started out with our favorite lavendar outfit complete with a princess bow! We are happy!

Then it was time to move onto our next outfit... this is when the photo shoot went a bit off track, well off of mommy's track anyway... We couldn't decide what to wear next... the pink or the lavendar... the pink or the lavendar....

Well hmmmm what to do, well first I'll stand up because I've been sitting for two minutes and well we all know that is just way too long... then well here mommy I don't need this bow anymore it won't match my pink outfit. what to wear next.. the pink or the lavendar the pink or the lavendar.....

OH GEEZE THIS IS JUST TOO MUCH!!! WHAT TO WEAR THE PINK OR THE LAVENDAR.......

well our princess just couldn't decide and wasn't interested in sitting around and smilin' Thus ending our photo shoot for today........ mommy still had fun watching all the decisions being made!!!!

Landscaping completed..... FINALLY

Well it's finally done. I wanted to share the pictures as promised. Today is a beautiful day and we were out enjoying not only the day but our new yard!!!

Daddy and Kaylee enjoying the sunny day!

In case anyone was wondering if I'll be venturing out of my box to assist small businesses anymore.... I won't be. I've decided to help my friends, family and some neighbors. I've always been a stay inside the box kinda gal!!!

Priceless

Does it get any better than this????? How special do Kaylee and I feel having such a great man in our life???? I was busy cleaning up the kitchen and came around the corner into the playroom only to see this...... now this is priceless! They were reading the book together playing the different musical instruments, laughing, looking at each other with their big blue eyes and truly having the time of their life!!! Keenon comes home each night, quickly washes his hands (lets not forget mommy is a germ freak) and runs to change clothes so that he can get to his little princess as fast as possible. They immediatley start giggling together for the next twenty minutes..... it's truly the best sounds that come from our home all day! It truly amazes me that he works so very hard all day long and is truly tired, but when he sees his little princess it's like the world melts away and energy abounds him! We are so fortunate to have such a wonderful daddy, husband and ultimately ...... BEST FRIEND!!!!!!!

play day

Today we had some very special visitors! Caroline and Camp came to play with us! We had such a great time. We made a garden paving stone, boy are these kiddos creative! Then we, of course, went swimming, swimming, swimming. We had a spectacular diving contest and of course we all won because our talents were overwhelming!!! Then we did an art project with foam paper. Next we were onto baking cookies, we made pink, blue and green sugar cookies in all shapes and sizes........ they were scrumptious! Kaylee watched in amazement all day long!! She loved to laugh and grunt at camp and of course give him lots of hugs!!! She liked to watch Caroline do flips in the pool and would clap for her! Caroline and Camp were so awesome playing with kaylee! She learned a lot from them today!!!! Mommy is plum wiped out.... oops I meant Kaylee is so tired she went to bed at seven a whole hour early and for our little anti-sleeper that's big!!!!!
