Mad Housewife

I found a chardonnay that I like and the winery name is something that made me want to pick up a bottle,  Mad Housewife.  I find it's a nice smooth chardonnay and I usually don't drink red wine.  I picked up a bottle because the name made me giggle and it was on sale...plus if I buy 6 bottles of wine from this company I can get a free t-shirt sporting their name, love the idea of wearing a t-shirt that states I'm a Mad Housewife.  ;-)

I like the chardonnay and and if this is any indicator I might just have to try another kind or two...or 3.  I'm not much of a red wine drinker, but I do think this wine goes well with homemade lasagna and salad.  And I'm sipping on another glass as I type.

I made this dress that Edd's wearing.  It's going to be her dress for the first day of school.  I asked her to pose so I could take her photo in it.  She grabbed the princess wand and started posing.  LOL It was too cute.  Here she is being a little fairy princess, that just lost her crown (it's at her feet) looking like she is granting a wish to something/one.

just a few crayons

My neighbor, Lisa and her daughter decided to clean out some of the stuff they weren't using any more and give it to my girls.  Needless to say they loved all the stuff that they got, especially all the crayons.  These are just a few of the crayons that Edd loves to color with, she had some in her princess box and MORE in a large container, this are only her "special ones" that she likes to color with right now.  Thanks Lisa, every time E&T color I think of you! :-)

Eye see you

As I was looking at Edd's eyes I thought it would be cool to have her eyes peeking out from her hands.  WOW! what do you think?  Am I right it makes her eyes look more blue than normal?

teeth brushing time

Getting ready for bed can be fun especially when you have friends sleep over.  Brushing teeth is a little crowded when there are 5 people in the bathroom doing it, but as you can see it is also lots of fun.

Don't worry I can do it

I guess she didn't need my help to open the gate.

countryside

 On the way home from Jasper, GA.  Only a few minutes from the big city but man it's really a lifestyle away.

Aug 4

T again!

Like I say it's going to be T week!  Isn't she a cutie?!  New haircut, new earrings, same ol' impish smile and twinkle in her eyes.

Aug 3

new ear rings

It seem like it going to be a week of T!  :-D

Since she cut her hair yesterday I decided to get her ears pierced to make sure that people know she was a girl ~like anyone would have a question with her in dresses all the time.  Doesn't she look proud with her new ear bobs?

She REALLY cut her hair!!

I love my daughter, I love her hair.  Such shiny bright sunny yellow hair!  She thought so too, she's always brushing it and wanting others to brush her hair.  SO WHY DID SHE CUT IT!!!  Oh I was/am mad, but it's okay...it-will-grow-back!  T still is a beautiful girl just without her long bright sunny hair.   Do you think she looks like a boy?

T in the baby bath

The only way to give a toddler a bath with a cast on her leg is in a baby bathtub. T loved it, it was only her in the bath and she could use the faucet to wash her hair.  She loves having water pour on her head by a faucet of some sort.
