SNOW DAY!!


Here are a couple of Amy's pics from playing outside in ICY BLAST 07. For anyone who has ever been to Texas when we get any sort of wintery percipitation, the city shuts down. Which is fine because it doesn't happen often and we don't have the resources avaliable to handle it..aka snow plows not that we'd ever need those, but still ice is never possible to drive on. Ice always wins. Anyway, Amy LOVED the snow..her favorite was to throw it at Mommy. Poor Daddy wasn't able to play much outside because he had to run into work and help them out with some projects, but Amy saved him some. We made up five snowballs and put them in a bucket in the frigde.. Here's a word of warning when you are emptying out the freezer a week later and dumping the ice like substance down the sink..DO NOT let Amy see you do this. It was a Level 10 tantrum..oh my goodness...At that point in time I would have driven to Minnesota or wherever it is that has snow now to get another bucket. I felt so bad. it's not that we give into tantrums..it just really hurt her feelings..she didn't want to give it up. Bad mommy..bad mommy

'Baby' Amy

So everyone knows Amy is one of thew worlds cutest and smartest little girls. Just have to share my latest cute 'baby Amy' story. I have been struggling with this cough all week, and today wasn't any better. After what felt like a five minute non stop coughing spell Amy told me 'if mommys throat hurts we need to get ice cream'. Ok..so how cute is that. I'm thinking oh look she trying to console me and got her pronouns mixed up. When my response was..'no mommy doesn't want ice cream right now' her response in the sweetest voice was and i'm NOT kidding, 'then I can have ice cream for you, my throat needs it too :) pause pause pause..PLEASE mommy." HOW FREAKING CUTE is that..who wouldn't give her the worlds biggest bowl of ice cream
