A 'crappy' morning!

This morning at 7:30am poor little Millie had the worst tummy ache to date! and Dave being the great Dad that he is was trying to let me sleep and handle it downstairs. Well Tailor came running into my room yelling "Mom! Millie is crying! Hurry!" Soon up came Dave and Millie and while I help poor little Millie, Dave called and spoke to the pediatrician about what exactly he thought was causing the poor tummy ache.... (we won't get in to details) As he is on the phone I was thinking, you know what other Dad would call the pediatrician at 8:30 in the morning to talk about their little babies tummy ache. I heart you babe! Thanks for helping with our girls!!

Tailor Gump!?!?

Ok so when I started potty training Tailor last August I can honestly say I had no idea it would take this long! I asked advice to anyone who might have something to offer," What am I doing wrong??" I sit back and run through the check list: well Tailor can do this, and spell that, and memorize this, so WHY the heck is she not a pro with the potty yet?? And people say, sometimes there is that stubborn child who will just perfect potty training when they are ready. Then I think well, does my child comprehend things as well as other two year olds or is my child a Forest Gump? So tonight I asked my mom and Dave "Hey do you think Tailor is a Forest Gump? I mean she's smart, and knows lot of things...why won't she just potty train and even more, why does she always ignore me when I am talking to her?" Well tonight she was wearing the new pair of jammies she earned by staying dry for a week and Dave came in to see her after her bathtime and asked her "Tailor where did you get those new jammies?!?!" No response... So I say "Tailor tell Daddy why you got to wear your new jammies tonight!" She says, "They're hearts!" So I get a worried look and say, "Tailor tell Daddy why...!" She ignores me again....I say, "Tailor answer mommy..." She says, "The store!" Then I give Dave a frustrated look and say, "No Tailor not where... why did you get them... tell Daddy why!" And she looks at me, puts both hands on my shoulders and says... "Mom... you need to relax!" And that was all it took I broke down laughing, I just couldn't hold it in and pretty soon my mom, dave and I were laughing so hard I forgot to be frustrated and worried, and my mom looked and me and said, "I think Tailor answered your own question." I think you always worry about your kids and you always want them to progress just as well as all the other kids.... but I think I'm still learning patience....

Millie and Mr. Frozone!!

Mr. Frozone thought Millie was so cute... and the funny thing was... it wasn't just me taking pictures!! There were people around us taking pictures because it was so funny how taken he was with her! They played for a few mintues and then he left to go find his pal Mr. Incredible!

Guess Who Game!

Ok so I am never the stalker paparazzi... BUT! Valentines Day we went to Disneyland and this person walked passed me... I thought they looked familiar so I tried to be "incognito" an took pictures of my sister... while really taking pictures of them and trying to figure out if I was right... well I was! So if you want to guess scroll slowly... if you want the punch line scroll to the end!

NICOLE RITCHIE, JOEL and HARLOW MADDEN!

And he is definetly intimidating in person and she is so small I could blow and make her fall down! But what curls on the Harlow!!

Kissin' Cousins!

Tailor loves her best friend cousin Alex and she told me, "Mom you need to take a cheese of me and Alex!" Good thing I keep my camera in my back pocket! (not really) I whipped it out and took a snap of these cuties!

Recast for the Cowerdly Lion Role!

Thank you to "Great" Aunt Sam for providing the wardrobe for the star!!

ARrRrRrRr MaTey's!!

OR as Tailor loves to say.... Arrrrr Maybe's!

This weekend we went to eat at the awesome new resteraunt on Sunset called Pirate Pizza... I tell you, when I am missing Pirates of the Carribean ride at Disneyland this is where I'll come! Super delicious food, fun ambiance, and they toss a taste of Chuckie Cheese in there with a Pirate Arcade and tickets to win and take home some "booty"! They even have a great "kiddie" area for Tailor to play on a pirate ship, climb the pirate rock wall, and run across a pirate rope bridge. All in all it was well worth the $12.00 it cost us to go for lunch and spend and hour playing games. (They give you free tokens!!) Could it be any more affordable!?!?

I GIVE UP!!!

What's it gonnna take to get a 2 1/2 year old to just sit still and take a picture?? This is why sometimes Kiddie Kandids is just SO worth IT!!

So Shayla came down for the weekend so Tailor could spend some time with her cousins, and Tailor is finally old enough the she didn't bug Morghen! They actually had a fun time playing dress up and barbies all weekend, and I had fun hanging with my sister! Before she left we had to throw Uncle "Ty Ty" to the "baby" wolves and subject him to pictures! Just too cute!

The Most Wonderful Time of Year!!

There are about five good months of the year here in St. George in which the weather becomes to inviting to stay inside. This is when we love to go walking! There is a great trail a mile from our home that we love to walk to which leads to other trails all across St. George. It's great scenery to walk along the river and past the golf course and Tailor's favorite thing to do is hunt for golf balls and gather awesome looking rocks and pine cones that must come home with us.

Betcha Can't Eat Just One!

So Millie's favorite past time is playing with noisy objects and when I gave her a bag of potato chips she went to town! It's great when your child will lay on the floor for half an hour perfectly contented with the smell and sound of Lay's BBQ Chips... They should make this a new Scentsy!

SpOnTanEitY!!

Well spontaneity from the Anthony side of the family has rubbed off on Shawnelle! The Jones' stopped by to say hello on their way home from Cali... and we suckered them in to staying the night! Tailor had so much fun with her cousins! They played till 11:00pm and got up at 7:00am and kept playing til it was time for them to go at which time Tailor stood at the window and sobbed as they drove away. This will lead to more spontaneity... a trip to Idaho!!

Rapunzel Rapunzel.... where is your hair!?!?!?

BEFORE

AFTER

Rapunzel Rapunzel?? Wait it's Tailor?!?! But where is her hair? Abby "cut cut" (as Tailor calls her) has been her stylist since birth and this time around she recommended more than just a trim and I agreed! Isn't she just so cute??
