Another Funny

Mike, the girls, and I were sitting at the table having some yummy watermelon. Elizabeth said:
"Daddy, when are you gonna buy me some more cambellope" (this is cantaloupe, by the way)

Mike: "You like cantaloupe better than watermelon?"
Elizabeth: "Yep!"
Mike: "I like watermelon better."
Me: "To each his own. Huh, Elizabeth."
Elizabeth: "Yeah..eat your own!!"

April Showers...

bring MAY flowers! These pictures are a few weeks old..just getting around to uploading them. I just learned how to use the Macro setting on my zoom lens. So I HAD to try it out. I really love getting {up-close and personal} with the blooms. :<)

This one's my FAVORITE

New Hobby

i have a new love in my life.. pottery!! i started taking a class about 6 weeks ago and i was addicted after the very first lesson! i just picked up my pieces today. i was so proud of them i just had to share. now keep in mind, beginners only start out with 2 lbs of clay so therefore, the pieces are kinda on the small size. but nonetheless, i like 'em! if any of you moms out there need a little break from the kids..a little stress relief and an artistic outlet, i highly suggest taking a pottery class. you'll LOVE it!

I actually made 9 pieces but these were just a few of the better ones

Photog Blog

well, it's up. and i'm actually getting hill's "hook-up" to pimp my blog, too! anyhoo.. i've got a few pics posted now. feel free to share! Thanks, y'all!

... almost forgot.. anyone know how to change the URL address for a blog? When I started creating the blog, I still was unsure of the name, so I just picked something out of the air until I decided. Now, I cant figure out how to change unless I delete the whole thing and start over?? NOOO!!!

Silly Elizabeth

I was laughing so hard at this particular "get-up". She said she was in the circus. I called her the "Gypsy Jester".

Sleeping Beauty

I rarely see Ava sleeping. I'm too afraid she'll wake up if I go in her room! But this day, she had been sleeping a really long time so I was gonna have to wake her anyway. I just couldn't pass up the photo opportunity!

Jellybean Bribery

Ava woke up from her nap in a great mood. She's usually just too darn fast for me to actually get a decent picture of her. So I managed to get her to sit still by giving her a few jellybeans. She loved them! And I managed to get this cute picture. I don't get many of her actually smiling...so I was happy!

Swimming at Nana's

We spent last weekend visiting Nana & Granddaddy. Elizabeth had a BLAST swimming in their pool. She recently took a few swim lessons and it has done wonders for her confidence in the water. She's now jumping off the diving board AND swimming under water..no floaties! She's so proud of herself..and so are WE!

This is "chee-th" (cheese with a lisp)

Elizabeth thinks that her cousins, Addie & Lauren, are the living end. She was sooo excited that they got to come over and swim with her!

Lipstick, mommy!

Elizabeth had been very quiet for a while...so you KNOW she was up to something. This is how she looked when she emerged from the bathroom... and she was holding a RED MARKER!!

Not too bad, huh?

Lil' Diva

I think I'm gonna have to buy another pair of sunglasses. They fight over these!
