Conversation with DIddy

On Monday Peyton and I had this conversation.

Diddy: Mom can I go over to one of my many grandma's houses?
Mom: Which one? Grandma Nyleen and Grandma Keil work, Grandma Rugg is home.
Diddy: Well, there you go, give her a call and tell her Peyton is coming over.

I am telling you this girl is so funny. Everyday I am laughing my head off.

Oh Peyton!

So this morning Kelly and Peyton were watching Mulan. One of the girl's favorite. There is a part in the movie where Mulan is getting ready for some party. She is putting her hair in a bun and putting white make up on her face. Kelly just asks the question " I wonder why they do that?" Payton looks at her and says " because they live in China". Oh Peyton! you are just to smart. I love the things she comes up. I guess she told Kelly.

A Princess Party

On Wednesday Emma and Peyton got invited to a Princess Birthday Party. Meet Priness Amerah. The cool thing about her is she has a magical dress. She sang

them a song and read a story about her. The girls loved it.

I did it!!!!

Step 1 ( This part was not fun, trying to make it smooth)
Step 2

(this one took me forever to do)
Step 3
(Start putting all the little stars on)

Step 4

(I DID IT!!)

Today I made my first cake, a decorated one that is. AJ was having a cake sale for scouts, so I thought it would be fun to try a make a Soccer Ball. I DID IT!!!. I am so proud of myself. Now I don't think I will make this a full time thing, but maybe once in awhile. I have to say it was so much fun. I love the grass! It just looks cool.

Back to the grind, President's day, and Valentine's.( I know it's backwards)

Yesterday AJ and Emma went to on track. It was nice to have them off, but it's nice to have them back in. The kids had Monday off for Presidents Day. Dad and Shauna called wanting to take us to the Children Museum, but I had alot of stuff going on, so hopefully the next time they are off we can go do something. Saturday night Emma and Peyton slep over at Grandma Nyleen house. It was nice because Gabe and I went out with our friends James and Shelly for Valentine's. Kelly got to make some money by babysitting their kids. We went to the Outback Stake House. It was so good, but I think I like Texas Road House better.

Just a Pinch

Today I took Peyton to her her first real Dentist Apt.. 2 weeks ago I took her, Emma, and AJ to get their teeth cleaned and Peyton has 2 little cavities, so today was the day. Gabe told her what they would be doing. She look a little scared, but holy cow she was GREAT. She was so brave, she didn't even move when they gave her the shot (the pinch). I wished I would have taken a picture, she looked so cute. She had the gas on her nose and was watching one of her favorite movies High School Musical. When she was done she looked at me said " that wasn't bad, but I don't think it was all that fun, and I don't need to go to the densit to watch High School Muscial. I can just watch it at home. ok momma?" ok Diddy. She is just so cute.
I love this picture of her. Thanks Heather you always do a good job.

Roll over Minutes. What?

Ok, so we all know how funny Shawn can be. Last night was no exception. Shawn is the only one in this family that takes 2 minutes showers, and no I am not kidding 2 minutes. Gabe asked how long he had been in there and I told him I don't know, but it seemed long for Shawn, So Gabe told Aj to tell Shawn to wrap it up. So Shawn came out and said " Don't I get roll over minutes?" We laughed so hard. I told him this is a no AT&T zone only Verizon. It was funny. Then there is Peyton, the other day I told her to "wrap it up" so we could go to the store. She looked at me and said " I'm not in the shower" I said "what" She then said "you told me to wrap it up". So I asked her what she thought "WRAP it UP" means. She said " it means when your in the shower and it's time to get out." She is funny. I just love my kids.

Dear John

As most people that know me, knows I love Nicholas Sparks books. Well 2 years ago, that's right 2 years ago I bought the book Dear John one day before I went to OBGYN appt. We all know how long you can wait there. Well I am happy to say that I finished the on 12-31-09. I loved it and I can't wait to see the movie. I know it took me forever to read it, but with kids I really don't have time to read and I know I can read in bed, but by the time I go to bed I am so tired I can't keep my eyes open. For Christmas my parent gave another Nicholas Sparks book The Last Song, that ones comes out in April, so I really need to get reading this one. This won't take me 2 years to read. I try to read 1 chapter a night or during the day, sometimes only 2 or 3 pages, but so far so good.
