Some shots from Haylee's bday party...

I'm a little late on these! Lol! Here are some pictures from Haylee's 7th birthday party at Club Libby Lu at the mall. There were a ton more but I thought I'd spare you ALL of them! :O)

Merry Christmas...

MERRY CHRISTMAS! We hope everyone has a WONDERFUL & safe Holiday! I'm hoping to take our Christmas photos this weekend! :O)

Two random shots...

Here is a pic from Haylee's actual birthday. Isn't the cake I made her pretty? Haha! Hey, it tasted good. I can't believe she's 7!!!! Eric & I will be married 8 years this May! Where has the time gone?!?!? This girl changed my life 7 years ago and I'm so thankful for her! My lil beauty!

And here is Avyree. This is what she looks like when she's sick! Lol! Look at Haylee lookin at her like...what's your problem. She picks on Haylee a LOT..naughty *Nugget*! Isn't it supposed to be the other way around? Lol!

Still workin on Haylee's party pics and more pics from her acutal bday! I'll post em soon. Hope everyone has a GREAT Thanksgiving!

Ah...the joys of making brownies...

I decided to add a blog for family pics that I want to share. So Haylee and I made brownies a couple weeks ago and we had a blast. Haylee REALLY had a blast...as you'll see! :O)

So here she is just starting. Mixing the batter and already trying to eat it!

Wow...that was quick! Two stirs in and she's already sampling the batter!

But how you can that sweet face she can't eat the batter yet!

Here's our "making brownies snack. Yeah I know...we are a healthy bunch!

She's working hard on getting out the clumps!

Butt wait (pun intended)...what's that she's doing? Doesn't she know you aren't supposed to do THAT when making brownies!

BUSTED! She just realized I got THAT on camera!

Now comes the fun part...eating the left over batter out of the bowl.

Can you tell she's truly enjoying this part?

Pure kid bliss...

Now the sugar is kicking in!

And so do the faces. I LOVE this kid!

This is her *pirate* face. Don't ask why she's doing the pirate face when making brownies!

Oh no...the giggles are starting. And when this girl gets going...there's no stopping her!

Now she's really starting to lose it and can't contain herself any longer. By the way, I'm now laughing so hard my eyes are watering and I can barely see through the view finder. Thank goodness for external flashes or these would be a blurry mess from me laughing so hard!

And she had to give proper credit to her delicious creation!

The bowl is clean and she is a HAPPY kid. There is nothing better than a kids face with chocolate on it. I love it so much that I cannot bare to go tell her to wipe her face. This is how kids SHOULD look! Ah...the good life!

Viola...brownies ala Haylee!

After all the batter eating, I can't believe she can actually eat the brownies. But she is a kid so I shouldn't be surprised!

Now that's happy!

Uh oh...more sugar means more silly. I LOVE it. This is her taking a pic of me taking a pic of her! Gotta love this girl!

Don't ask cause I don't know. She can turn on you in a second!

Then turn right back on you in the other second. Okay...so as many of the women know...the LAST thing you want to do after eating pounds of brownie batter and a big brownie is strut around like a model and pose for the camera. Another great thing about being a kid. Brownies make you happy and want to strike a pose instead of going to jog 10 miles!

I think she needs posing lessons! HAHAHA! Don't worry...I won't tell her that!

This is how my model roles...modeling and eating at the same time. You go girl!

A final kiss to ALL her fans!

And now the infamous *sugar crash* takes place! You know the one I'm talking about...the blank stare!

So there you have it. This is my girl and I love her. For those of you who only see the shy side of her, this is what we see everday. The girl is hilarious! I hope you enjoyed these as much as I did.

I will be loading her pics from her bday & party at Club Libby Lu soon! Hope all is well!

About Me...
