Funnies by Claire

Turn the corner and guess who is watching a movie; Claire and Stella...and Stella's stroller. As Claire says "that's silly"!

Claire, do you want to go to Sonic and get a Sprite? "You go to Sonic and get me a Sprite, I will stay here, just be right back? You can't stay by yourself...."Yes, r can. Go Momma, be right back."

The blessing at the table; "Thank you for our food, um, Thank you for our bread stick, um, Thank you for our home, um, Thank you for our Jesus" .....at least she was eating a bread stick!

Easter Time Playdate

Last weekend Claire and I went on a playdate at a friends house and had so much fun!!! This Momma wasn't thinking much about toddlers dying easter eggs so let's just say the MJ dress came off the instant we got there....hence the white tee and bloomers! The Caldwells backyard is a child's paradise, Claire's could have played for hours and hours! Claire and Sophie

Three smiling at one time....never going to happen....have to laugh at Titus' shirt, Maggie dressed him in Polo, which lasted as long as the MJ dress!

Claire and Titus

Playing with bubbles....

then the sandbox....

...painting and dying easter eggs....

...such the little artist...

...off to the tire swing again...

...then the rock wall...

...this little redneck girl just hopped in the back...

....we all laughed so hard because Titus could not drive to save his life, they were running into trees, chairs, playground, people....just better get out of the way, little Sophie had a death grip holding on!

....and of course the swing, an all time favorite!!!

Can't wait until we all get together again!!!

Birthday Bash

Several of our friends have March birthdays so we all got together and celebrated...redneck style!! Probably the best kind if you ask me! Comfy clothes, plenty to drink, fried fish with all the fixins and plenty of beds in the cabin for everyone to crash! Some even watched the sun raise while others were raising with the sun; I guess that's what happens when you mix the youngsters and well the not-so-youngsters! This is the only pictures we took all night....don't get to see these girls near enough!!

Claire Catch Up

Earlier this month I had to work in Little Rock and it just so happened "Give a Pig a Pancake" was playing at the Children's Art Center! This was a favorite past time from my childhood so taking Claire was a little surreal! Pop pop and Mimi got us tickets and off we went!

Claire was making it a night of silly faces!

Me and my girl....my big girl!

The play was an hour long and she paid attention the entire time....I was a little surprised. The play only had 2 characters, the pig and a girl. Claire told us that she did not like the pig just the girl.

Claire has these amazing "conversations" with us and I find myself wanting to write them all down...of course I don't, but here are just a few that come to mind:

At the dinner table she informed me and Nick that "she had to hurry up and eat her salad because she had to go exercise"!!! Exercise, where did she get this?? I wish I could say from us but exercising is not part of our daily routine.

This week I crossed over from "my young twenties, to my not so young thirties" I think I am ok with this but then again I am just trying not to think that much about it...denial, maybe??

Anyway, at my birthday dinner, Anna said we need to sing Happy Birthday...without hesitation Claire busted out "Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to Mommy and me"...I guess it really was her birthday since she opened all my gifts.

Last night, Claire told us that me and her were girls and daddy was a boy and only us girls were going to play in her playroom and not boys!! come on, Mommy let's play in my playroom.........we fell out laughing!!

Silly or Sassy, I am not real sure!! But for now it sure makes a good laugh!
