Funny Girl!!

Just a little humor for you today. Sara Beth got a pair of my underwear out of the trash can. Don't worry... they were just worn out. Big holes!! I guess she thought they could be recycled as a scarf. So she wore them around for a while!! Funny girl. She actually does this on a regular basis. She will go into her dresser drawers and get a pair of pants or shirt out. Put one arm through it and wear it like that for a while. It cracks me up!!
She is a little preoccupied watching a video while I fold laundry! Can't you tell?
I am so thankful that I get to see these sweet little things everyday. I am so blessed! This girl is growing so fast. I can't believe that she is 18 months old all ready. She is learning new things each day & I just love it.

Nice Weather

We have had some great weather the last couple of weeks. I took Sara Beth to the park and let her run around with some of our friends. She had the BEST time. It's the first time she has been able to really enjoy running around, sliding and swinging. It was so much fun to watch her, but I sure was wishing her daddy could have shared in our fun. He would have really enjoyed running around out there with her and helping her slide and swing. Enjoy these sweet pictures.

(glad this toy was available for me to push)

(I love to swing)

(waiting on me to hold her hand)
And one of my favorite 3 girls!! I was trying to get a picture of Emma & Leah squatting down beside Sara Beth. Sara Beth was copying them and squatting every time. Too Funny!


Sweetness

I have been trying for weeks to get this on video. Sara Beth has been singing this song over and over again. Every time I get my camera out, she stops, Errr! Today during church services she started singing the song. It was sweet, she must have really had this song on her heart. All the way home she sang and sang it over and over again. I was able to get my phone out and turn the camera around (love that iphone). I actually caught it this time.

Here are the words, just in case you have difficulty making it out (you should be able to at least make out "all night, all night."
All night, all day, angels watching over me, my Lord. All night, All day, angels watching over me.

She gets pretty tickled at herself too!!

We Have A Problem!!

Sara Beth finally came up with something for me to blog about!!!!!!


Well, Sara Beth was being very quiet in the kitchen..... I called her a couple of times into the living room. She didn't come and didn't make a peep. Soooo..... I quietly walked into the kitchen to see what was going on. This is what I saw!! Permanent marker in the hands of a 17 month old and nice art work all over my floor. I couldn't help but to actually laugh out loud. I took the marker out of her sweet little hands, put it up high, picked her up and sweetly said, "Sara Beth, I could just snap you in half (again, I said it in the sweetest voice ever!!)," she gave me the biggest hug ever. Squeezed my neck so hard, and gave me the biggest scrunched up smile ever. I forgave her!!! If you look really close to her foot. You will see that she managed to only get a little on her big toe. She saved all the good work for the floor!!

I quickly got to working with some of this stuff. When I bought it, I was told it would remove permanent marker. Guess what?? They told the truth!!


Here is the after shot! I think I need to sell my story!!!

This reminded me of stories my mother has told about me. Apparently I was very mischievous and very quiet about it. I guess what goes around really does comes back around!!

A Good Daddy!

Here is a picture that Todd sent the girls. They have had a lot of snow lately and he told the girls he would build them a snowman. Here is proof that daddy came through on his word. He built one girl and one boy. The girl has a little curly hair (i think it's a rug!), and I personally love the wrench arms!! We are so blessed to have him as a daddy. We miss him terribly and can't wait to see him again. Everyday gone by is one day closer to the end of this season in our lives.

Still Here!!

We have just been super busy with things like....


Sara Beth has been learning all kinds of things. She is getting so big so fast. She has been saying new words on a daily basis. One new word for today is "kool" (school). She can say mama, deda (dada), Papa, MeMe, Nanny (new as of yesterday), ooos (shoes), bye-bye, hey, NO!!, pees (please), thank you, eat, eea (this is for Emma & Leah). Never know who she is actually calling!!My favorite thing she says is, I......LAAAA(with her tongue going side to side in her mouth).......YOU! So sweet. She gets so tickled at herself and just cracks me up. Some of her favorite things to do is to empty my drawer with the zip lock bags in it. ALL OVER THE FLOOR!!! She also enjoys doing the same thing with the dish towels and rags. She keeps me on my toes for sure, and that my friends is why I haven't had much time to blog lately. Hopefully things will slow down soon. Who am I fooling.. no they won't! Hope everyone is doing well!!
