Cute Sweet Girls

The Disney Channel showed Beauty and The Beast the other day, and I recorded it, out of convince, just so I had it on my DVR.   Yesterday, we decided that would be an okay show for the girls to watch and turned it on.   Bailey was fairly frightened by the beast(I guess it's been a while since she has watched it) and Chloe LOVED it.   We watched it together as a family,.. Peter likes to pretend to be Gaston,.. and he is really good at the part when he says "and every last inch of me's covered in HAIR!!"   surprisingly accurate.(and I LOVE it!)   I just love to sing the songs,.. even though the girls get really mad and throw things at me.  
Well the part comes where the Beast catches Maurice (Bell's dad) in the castle, and Bell comes to save him, and then she takes his place as the Beasts prisoner. The Beast takes Maurice and throws him in the enchanted carriage and returns him to his home in the village.   Well Chloe runs over to me with BIG alligator tears in her eyes, and says "come back!   Dat Daddy come Back!!"   and just looses it, sobbing.   Poor thing, was just broken hearted that Bell's daddy had to leave and that the Beast was so mean to him.  

She wanted to watch the movie again this afternoon,.. and had the same reaction.  

Yes,.. she did also tell me today "I punch you in the face mom".   So she is tender hearted, and violent.  I don't know where in the world she learned that,.. but Bailey does tell people I spank them in the face, everyday! A story told by Aunt Rachel when the girls stayed with them while we were on our Cruise.  Chloe made a big mess one morning, and Bailey took it upon her self to spank her sister,...... in the face and when Rachel asked her what she did and why,.. Bailey said "but my mom ALWAYS spanks her in the face when she makes a mess, EVERYDAY!


Bailey had a funny thing this morning too.  I walked in the living room just in time to watch Bailey dump her garbage behind the couch, and so after a sharp talking to by dear old mom, she started to cry and said "But Mommy, you are so Beautiful!!"  After laughing for a second I gave her a hug and some brownie points.  Talk about knowing how to diffuse a situation and make your mom fall in love with you all over again and forget why they were mad!  This girls a pro!!


My girls just crack me up and through all the fighting, hair pulling, naughty word talking, mess making, food slinging, juice spilling, serious damage making,...... I am seriously in love with them. 

The Fetus

So,.. to catch the world up on the happenings of this cute little fetus twisting like a tornado in my uterus,.. 

As afore mentioned I got pregnant with an IUD.  And also that it will be "High Risk".  So that basically means that I get to have an ultrasound every month(i'm not complaining) and that's about it.  I should keep my activity level kinda low,.. which means that I will just continue to grow and grow and by the Super Bowl, and delivery come around I will be easily mistaken for the Goodyear blimp,.. It's tragic.  So far, the baby looks great, and the IUD is keeping it's self in a low risk place,.. all good signs.  I am 13 weeks 4 days(today) thus making my due date February 12, 2012.  

Bailey is INSISTING that it is a "he",.. and there is a baby "brover" in there,.. which would be nice,.. but let's face it,.. I do NOT know what to do with a boy,....  really,.... What is there to do?  No bows?  Or bracelets?  Or dresses?  What do they even wear?  So as exciting as it would be to have a boy,.. I think I'll be relived if it's female and we can keep on this pink parade a little longer.  

Seriously,.. Jock straps, smelly socks, pee pee tee pees, wieners, hair cuts, Yeah,.... this is all a little much for me.  I might need some serious help.

I have had a hard time letting myself get too attached to this little bundle of joy.  With the term "High Risk"  I have just kind of pushed my emotions to the side, to try and avoid the break down if something happened.  It just seems easier to not plan in it working out, than to get attached.  I still don't imagine Christmas 8 months pregnant, or having a new born during the spring time.  So as much as I don't want to admit it, I guess I am just sounding cold hearted.  I think the other thing that has assisted in my denial is that this pregnancy has been SOOO different than Bailey and Chloe.  I have only thrown up 3 times, and haven't been nauseated at all. I haven't felt tired during the day hardly at all.  So in other words,.. compared to the girls,.. I haven't FELT pregnant.  I am always surprised that there is really something in there at my appointments.  

Don't let me lead you astray here,.. I'm excited about this little baby!!  I am just having a hard time wrapping my mind around it all.  Peter and I couldn't be more excited.  The girls,.... well Bailey is STOKED(Chloe is clueless).  And we understand and thank the Lord for this little blessing every day!!  

Birthday Bonanza

We did, in-fact, celebrate the girls' birthday's.  It was a really stressful time for me,.. you know,.. unexpected, high risk pregnancy?(an update on that to come) So the parties got slid together, minimized, and postponed,.. but I was determined to make it happen at some point.  So, we did the blow-up princess castle,.. AGAIN,.. but this year I over did it, and actually made both girls, pretty cool cakes.

Most of our favorite people came, and the food was quite tasty(I hear,.. by this time of that day,.. all I wanted to do was barf from exhaustion) Happy Birthday my beautiful babies!!  I love you more than life it's self!!

Summer happened

We bought a swing set,.. which was AWESOME until I found a GIANT(4-5feet) Snake in our yard,.. now I'm too freaked out to send the girls out there.

This is my neice Kinsey, and she is awesome!  I love her,... and she totally loves me.  And the girls maul her every chance they get.  It has been a nice pre-qual to our new addition.

We have spent a bit of time at Thanksgiving Point.

And learning to be even more sassy,.. she's a pro.

We went to the Princess Festival(totally ghetto when you have been to Disneyland recently) But she was most excited to see Hook,.. weirdo.

Some mom made her girls into gypsy's.  Speaking of Gypsies,.. have you seen "my big fat gypsy wedding?"  I am addicted.

It's not been fun until you get wet.

We went to Strawberry Days for Pleasant Grove, and all Bailey wanted to do was get her face painted,.. until it was painted and then she wanted to do everything else too.  Oh Well.

My family of Posers.

We went up the canyon one night for family night, and  had some fun with our cute little green caterpillar friend.

Oh I love her.

The annual birthday bash was a hit! (snort snort)

It wouldn't be a trip to bear lane with out being totally grubby and living in your swimsuit for a few days straight.

or pajamas.

This picutre totally cracks me up.  Chloe could barely get her hands close enough to hold this capri sun.

Life isn't compleate without an amazing bum cheek shot.  Look that that booty!


So,.. all in all,.. June was good to us,.. real good!
