Flashback Friday

Boy, have these kids grown!

Sleepover @ Nana's, A Wordless Story

You've Got To Be Kidding Me!

Laci thought it might be fun to start this blog carnival. I will be the first to link a post. Tonight I am having a slumber party with Kelsea and Mackenzi. Early this afternoon we came to my house. We have played in the toy room, played in the back yard, colored in coloring books, had dinner, then went to buy Princess Sing Along Movies. When we got home we decided we were going to go swimming. Great idea...wear them out, bathe them, pop some popcorn, watch a movie and then easily go to sleep! What a plan! Swimming was great. The girls even swam for a bit with no magic suits on, great! It's getting to be almost 7pm so I decide its time to put the rest on the plan in motion. We're at the back door, dripping wet...I take Kelsea's suit off and hang it on the fence to dry. As I'm doing this Mackenzi keeps telling me" I didn't go poop in my bathing suit, it's too pretty to poop in". I say; I know, you are a big girl and go poopie in the potty, yes you do have a pretty bathing suit. Again, she tells me the same thing, as I'm taking her suit off.........and out plops a big turd on the patio!!!! That kid doesn't even skip a beat.... she says, with a lot of awe, "wow, is that a leaf? cause, I didn't go in my bathing suit, it's too pretty!" No Mackenzi, it's not a leaf, it's poopie, and you did go in your pretty bathing suit! We got cleaned up and everything was good ....until I started thinking....how long was that "leaf" in her bathing suit, in the pool, while I was swimming and floating on my back looking and acting like a whale blowing water out of my mouth like it was a blow hole??? ....and I thought...... this is a You've Got To Be Kidding Me Moment if I do say so myself!

It's a Giveaway!

Stephanie over at It's The Little Things is having a giveaway for her 200Th post. I have talked about her before, she is our Fancy Photographer. She does a fabulous job capturing memories! She and her partner have a photography business, G & M Images, head on over and check out their work. Here is a picture of my favorite picture I have ever taken. Dana, Laci and I took the the kids and went to the beach to take maternity pictures of Laci. She was 32 weeks pregnant with the twins. We were hoping for a nice day, with no rain. We couldn't have asked for better weather on that winter day, in January of 2008. Four weeks later Jace and Quinn were born. Laci was on semi bed rest, and tossing Mackenzi in the air was probably not a good idea. Luckily we got a good shot on our one and only try!
