The "make-up" soccer game

Adilyn heard her soccer coach and I talking about having to make up their soccer games that were rained out.
About 3 days later, we were playing with her Barbies, and they were at the beauty salon getting make up on. She said, "Um, Mommy, I just don't think the boys on my soccer team are going to want to wear make up." I asked her why she thought they would have to wear make up. She said, "Well, I heard my coach say that we were going to have a make-up soccer game."
I can just see what she pictured in her little mind...they were all going to put make up on and run around and play soccer! Maybe, if that was the case, she would actually play more :)

Choked up!

Adilyn loves telling me dramatic stories about what happened at school each day. This was her latest... "Oh, Mommy, you would NOT believe what happened today. Sydney got Ms. Niroo's toliet all choked up. She pooped, put too much toliet paper in the toilet, and flushed it way too many times, and it got all choked up! Now, we can NOT use her toilet at all. We have to go alllllll the way to the art room or the enrichment room. I can't believe she choked it up. AND, Mommy, two teachers tried to fix it, but they couldn't fix it at all!"
I think she might have taken one breath during that whole story. :)

Bluebonnets with the Griffins!




We needed to get out of the house because we had some showings, and Sonja had a great idea to go take pictures in the bluebonnets. We all wanted to meet their new baby, Hannah, so it was a perfect plan. I could not believe how tiny Hannah was. It is always amazing how quickly you forget how small newborns are!
We have never done bluebonnet pictures before, but they ended up turning out great! We got some really cute pictures of all the kids. I think that Kacy and Isaac had the most fun of everyone running through the field. It was so cute to see them together!

Too Many Babies



This picture was from my phone about a month ago. We were at Adilyn's soccer practice, and the girls put their soccer balls in the shirts. Adilyn said, "We are all having babies!!!" Silly girls :)

Cash Time!


Cash was introduced to Barbies when he was staying with us during Spring Break. His favorite was the doctor Barbie...maybe following in his doctor daddy's footsteps??? It was pretty funny watching him play with all the girly pink toys.



Even though he woke me up way too early, he got to bond with his unborn cousin while he was cuddled up sleeping on my belly! The baby got squished up a bit, but it won't be the last time that she will squished by someone that loves her.

My Little Sickie!


We were just talking a couple weeks ago how amazing it was that Adilyn hadn't been sick in so long. She really had not been to the doctor because she was sick since 2010. Well, we spoke too soon...she had a horrible fever one night - 104.5, so we took her to the doctor and she had the flu! Luckily, Cory stayed home with her, and they watched tv together for about 3 days. After the worst was over, she still had a cough for what seemed like forever. Then, today she woke up complaining about her ear hurting, so I took her to the doctor, and she had the beginnings of an ear infection! They did say that it's pretty common to have ear infections or other infections after having the flu because it takes so much out of you. Let's hope that's the last of it!
It sure was scary when she had that high of a fever. She was talking crazy in her sleep. One time she said, "Mommy, stop giving me so many surprises, I can't carry them all!" Another time, she said, "Kacy is way too little to be doing that." She also thought there were mosquitos biting her feet! It made me really nervous, but luckily her fever finally broke in the middle of the night!

Hi-YA!

Although Kacy can make me absolutely crazy sometimes, the girl is hilarious! She cracks me up constantly with her silly faces, her questions, the "stories" she tells me, and the things that she says. One of the things that she has started to say is "Hi-YA" like a karate chop noise, but she says is all the time! She says it when she tries to take her shoe off and it's hard or when she shifts her position on the couch or when she tries to reach something way up high. It's like her little grunting noise when she's working hard, but it always comes out "hi-ya"!
She loves having her fingernails painted. When she notices that the paint has come off, she will say, "Mommy, my fingernails lost."
Recently she has started saying, "My mama said..." all the time. She will say it when she asks for something from Cory like, "I need juice, my mama said." Or she will tell other people things that I told her that she could do.
She always gets grumpy when I do her hair, and she told me the other day, "Mama, do it slowly and gently, mama...slowly, gently."
Any time Adilyn wears a dress, and I don't put her in one she will say, "Me no pretty Mama, not fair!" Sometimes even when she is in a dress, if it doesn't twirl the way she wants she will claim that she can't dance because it won't twirl. I suspect that as she grows up, she will become less and less of a girly-girl, but only time will tell!
