Micah

Micah has had an ear infection and has not been his happy self, but I finally got him to smile for one picture. Finally standing up-- okay so I had to make him stand there, but he can do it, he's just not very motivated to be up and about. He has 3 ladies waiting on him all the time so he feels no need to walk!

Dressing up

The girls went to a birthday party on Friday at Claire's. They each got to have their make-up and nails done, and then they were able to purchase 5$ worth of stuff and got some free goodies too. They enjoyed it, but I would not recommend doing the nails again. They used real nail glue and it was horrible to get off, Mackenzie has one nail that she is going to lose because of being shut in a door, and the glue is pulling it out of the nail bed! It's going to be painful! Here Mackenzie is getting her "smokey eye"- that's what she likes to call eye shadow.

The nails- they were very pretty,but extremely long- they couldn't do any thing with them on.
The birthday party group- they wanted them to pose like Diva's-- I am pretty sure my girls had no idea what they were talking about.
Maddy's nails--she was happy to have nails like Nana's-- but they didn't last long.

Birthday Cake

Here's a picture of Ron's birthday cake my friend Larissa made. It was really neat, you could spin the wheel to see what Ron was older than.... dirt, the wheel, time, dinosaurs, the hills or you. It was delicious too!
We didn't have 31 candles, so I tried to write out the number with the candles instead.

Emergency room

First we need to wish Ronnie a Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am throwing a surprise dinner for him with 14 people but thought I would share our wonderful morning with you. I
jumped in the shower this morning while the kids were watching Peter Pan, and heard a blood curdling scream, so I grabbed a towel and ran to see what happened and the girls met me at my door with blood dripping everywhere, and they were both crying. Apparently Mackenzie wanted an apple and decided to use my new Pampered Chef apple slicer to cut her apple. She sliced part of her ring finger in the process. Since I couldn't get the bleeding to stop I threw everyone in to the car, they were still in Jammie's, and off we went to the ER. They were very fast and after lecturing Mackenzie about knives they glued her finger back together. Then one of the nurses went and got her an apple! She is supposed to keep it dry for 24 hours which is going to be hard to do so hopefully it heals together.

A Little Vacation

Ronnie took a few days off and we went to San Antonio for a little vacation. We left on Friday morning and since it only takes 4 hours to get there we always make it in time for lunch. Our first stop is always Chipotle! We love that place and wish they would build one here. Then we went to Sea World. It was so hot and humid. We saw a new show and did a few kiddie rides and then went and saw the Shamu show Believe again. This time since it was so hot we wanted to sit down front so we could get wet. Big mistake! Micah and I got soaked- it was cold and very salty. And naturally the clouds had rolled in and cooled everything off so we were cold and wet. It started to rain just as we were leaving. We decided to take the kids to see the new movie Ratatouille. It was very good, and Micah sat through most of it. He kept trying to crawl over me and go see the people behind us. He is a major flirt and put on a show where ever we went. On Saturday we hit the outlet mall and then went to Chuck E Cheese's, another place I would love to have down here. After some more shopping we stopped again at Chipotle before heading home.
This woman was standing so still and never opened her eyes, every once in a while she would change poses, it was really neat. Mackenzie would not go near her.


This picture is for Heather and Adrian- the food was great guys!!!!!!!!

Micah's fascination with.......

The Toilet! While I was upstairs on the computer, Mackenzie called me and said "Mom you gotta come see this", so I grabbed the camera. I found Micah in the bathroom lifting the lid up and down. Maybe he wants an early start at potty training! Heather- I don't think I will send him your way- I wouldn't want Caleb showing Micah his little trick!
