Our Little Performer

Every time Anabelle's "teenage" shows come on, she always dances to the theme song.

She has a rockin good time cartwheeling and all :)

She's Got a Style All Her Own

Belle certainly has a style of her own. She loves picking out her clothes for school everyday. Many of the outfits she picks out are stylish...let me tell ya! She loves to layer like the girls on iCarly. She likes to wear tank tops over her shirts. One day Jason asked her, "Why are you dressed like that?" She said, "Well, iCarly does it." I basically let her wear what she wants to wear to school just because I think kids at that age need that feeling that they can do stuff on their own and not be corrected. There is only one time where I had to tell her to change her outfit. She was wearing a dress with her ON fleece pajama pants...it looked a little crazy. :)

Her favorite thing in the whole wide world to wear is her jammies. On the weekends, she lives in them! She even wears her pajama pants to school (the ones from ON that can be passed off as being a fleece pair of pants :)).

Whenever I do laundry and put her clothes away, all of her drawers are disshoveled as she changes many times a day...searching for that perfect outfit!

Here's a pic that I took of her a couple of weeks ago...you will she that 1) she has her shirts layered and 2)she has her pajama pants on...with a little flair...a scarf and sunglasses...and let's not forget a headband, which she has really started to love wearing...definitely Hollywood material! :)


Mommy!?!?!....What?!?!...I LOVE YOU!...I LOVE YOU TOO!

This is something that you would hear in our house probably about 10+ times a day. If I am not in Anabelle's sight, she starts to freak out a little. So..throughout the day...she'll yell, "MOMMY?!?!". I yell back, "WHAT!?!?". Her response is, "I love you!" and I tell her, "I love you too!" She is then at peace knowing that I am still in the house somewhere and didn't run off. :) At times, I will not say "What!?!?" just to see what she would do...uh...yeh...bad idea...she starts freaking out running through the house searching for me crying, "mommy...where are youuuuuuuuu?" Then I pop out of nowhere, and she cries saying, "Why did you do that?" ...bad mommy :)

I thought this would be an issue with her starting kindergarten, but she has done just fine. I guess being in daycare since she's been 15 months old has made her adapt very well to these kind of environments. However, her teacher did tell me that she does get worried at the end of the day about missing her bus. :(

I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. I was such a worrywart when I was little too. One of the many things that I used to freak out about when I was little was about my parents' gas tank being close to empty. ;)

Vacation Pic - Myrtle Beach

I was going through some pictures a couple of weekends ago and finally putting some up on the walls that haven't made their way up yet. I came across this vacation picture from Myrtle Beach and just LOVE it! We had some professional pics taken on the beach one morning at 6am (for sunrise) and this is just one that I just absolutely adore! Such wonderful memories!

Countdown to My New Cell Phone

Exactly one month from today, I will be sporting a new cell phone...the Iphone! I cannot wait!! Jason got one back in December and just loves it, and I do too! I didn't think that I would want one, but after seeing his and seeing all the stuff that he can do with it, I really want one now. I'm up for a new phone on March 27th, so hopefully the one that I have now will hold out until then. It is dying a slow death. It makes for texting a pain in the butt because it's been freezing up; doesn't receive long texts all the time; doesn't have a keypad...the list goes on and on. We do a lot of texting...between the both of us ...incoming and outgoing there are about 5,000 a month! Lots to talk about I guess. :) Thank goodness for the unlimited text plan!!

Goodbye Goodnights!

For about the past month/month and a half, Brady has been wearing underwear to bed every night and has only had a couple of accidents. He has finally grown out of wearing Goodnights to bed!! YEAH!!! :) I thought this day would never come as he used to have accidents very frequently at night time. We are so proud of our big boy! He is just growing up more and more every day. He'll already be on his way out the door to kindergarten this August. :(

P.S. Goodbye Goodnights...you won't be missed. :)
