Wordless Wednesday ~ Late Again

Yes, that's right, this is my "precious" baby girl. We have decided to quit letting her get her way all the time, and enforcing discipline. As, you can tell she's not liking it very much.

Poor baby!

Wordless Wednesday ~ A day late

There just isn't anyway that I can just post pictures and have a "wordless" post.

Chloe everyday this week has came home from school, ditched her uniform, and went straight to her dress up dresses. And you can't be a princess without sitting in front of your vanity, and coating on the makeup.

This princess is really fond of her purple and blue eyeshadow.

Last night as I was cooking dinner I notices that the NAKED barbies where each in a shoe. Larry and I got the biggest laugh out of this. I asked her what she was doing this for, and she said the shoes where the barbies cars. As if we don't have several barbie cars and carriages upstairs in the playroom. This is SOOO Chloe!!

Last Friday Evening

We had planned to spend the Friday evening at home watching movies and playing games with the kids. But, for the past few days we noticed some water in the garage. Come to think of it a few days prior I remember Natalie telling me for some reason she noticed the floor of her bathroom being wet, and had to use a towel to clean it up. Well, we had a leak in the pipe that runs from the outside facet. I guess when we had below freezing temps a week or so ago, it froze the pipe, and the pipe had a slow leak that continued to get worse.

So what does the hubby decide to do??

YES, that's right. He takes a hammer to the sheet rock to try to find the leak.

The final knock out of a mess.

This is how our Friday evening turned out. We had to run to Lowe's and get a new pipe, and call our plumber friend over to fix it. Now, I'm just wandering how long it's going to take my hubby to get this back the way it's suppose to be!!!

The Finale of Chloe's 5th Birthday

We finish up the celebrating of Chloe's 5th birthday with a kid party at Leapin Louie's Lagoon at the Radisson Hotel in Tulsa. It is perfect for this age, and I think we will do it again for Izaak's 7th birthday in March.

Chloe and her friends in the hot tub, look at that birthday girl sticking out her tongue.

Chloe and her big sissy.

Chloe and her cousin Catie having lots of fun.

My baby girl has such a sweet smile.

I'm 5 years old now, I'm going to try out what the big kids like to do.

The kiddo's got to swim for an hour and a half, and then we headed up stairs to a conference room to get out PARTY ON!

Chloe's Tinkerbell cake. I was so irriated this is the 2nd year in a row that Walmart (yes, I get my cakes at Walmart, saves having to run to another bakery) has messed up on a cake for us. When we got there to pick up the cake they could not find it, and once they found it, it said Happy 15th Birthday. DUH, what 15 year old would want a Tinkerbell cake, I mean SERIOUSLY! But, anyhow they scrapped the 1 off the cake, and it looked like CRAP, but Chloe didn't know the difference and she liked. it.

Chloe for some reason or another was actually being shy when it came to blowing out the birthday candles.

But, that quickly changed............

Happy 5th Birthday baby girl!!! You had a great time, and we love you sooo much!

5th Grade Teacher

Well, today I am taking on a new title. We have decided to homeschool our 5th grader. Natalie has been having trouble with focusing and getting her work done. As parents we felt like we needed to get a handle on this, so that she would be ready for the 6th grade come August. I'm excited, and scared to death. But, today so far so good. This morning we did 2 lessons in English, and 2 lessons in Math. And right now Natalie is doing PE on the Wii Fit for 30 minutes. I'm praying for God's provision over us, and that I will have the patience in wisdom to take on the HUGE task. Please pray for us!!!

Chloe's Birthday ~ Part 3

We threw a little party for Chloe's birthday during snack time at school.

We had never ordered birthday donuts before, but they were a HUGE hit! We ordered these from OK Country Donut Shoppe in Tulsa. And I'm sure this isn't the last time that they will be seeing us.

Sweet friends, and sweet cousins. Not only are they in the same class at school, they go to the same dance class, and live right next door to each other. Chloe LOVED the special attention at school.

Chloe's Birthday ~ Part 2

We always throw a party for the birthday person on their actually birthday, with just our little family.

Daddy made Chloe a big birthday breakfast. Yum! 

Here are a few things my little DIVA got for her birthday......

Barbie rollerblades, that we still have yet to try out. I remember having a yellow pair when I was little. They didn't have cool barbies ones back then. HA!

And since she had already used up all the make up she got for Christmas, we had to replinsh her make up drawer. Goodness, I can't believe they love it so early, she would put it on every morning to go to school if I would let her.

Sissy was snapping pics with her new camera.

Bubs thinking that playing cards was more fun than watching Chloe open her "girly" stuff.

Chloe wanted to go and see the movie, Princess and the Frog, for her birthday. I didn't get any pics at the theater, but here is a picture before we left. And no little DIVA can go see a princess movie without some princess loot. She got a princess and the frog shirt and purse for her birthday. Check out her eye shadow, oh my lands!

Here is the cake that I made Chloe for her birthday. Strawberry cake with strawberry icing, our favorite! Chloe's favorite show is the Cake Boss on TLC, I sure wished I knew how to use fondant, maybe I'll try one of these days.

~~~~My big "5" year old!~~~~

Daddy and his little girl. It is so much fun watching Larry with his girls, he is a great DADDY!

The girls enjoying their cake. Maybe next year we will finally get past the Tinkerbell decor, since we have had it 3 years in a row.

One very TIRED birthday girl.

Happy Birthday my sweet baby girl. The last 5 years have been so much fun with you. You are a spitting image of me, or so everyone says. And I wouldn't change it for the world!

Chloe's Birthday ~ Part 1

My children don't just have one, or even two parties, they end up with three or more. So, I'll split the parties between three postings. Chloe's 1st party was at Nana and Papa's house, since they kept the girls while we took Izaak to Monster Jam.

The Birthday Girl

Nana's version of a birthday cake, but Chloe LOVED it! HA!

The 3 silly kiddo's and their Papa.

Nice smile there darlin'!

Thanks Nana and Papa for the swimsuit barbie, she loves to swim at the beach....aka bath tub.

What a great start to Chloe's 5th Birthday celebration!

Wordless Wednesday

I've never taken part of the blog's world, Wordless Wednesday. But, thought it would be a nice addition to my blog.

This is how my little princess passed out one night!

Monster Jam

Izaak LOVES monster trucks!

On Friday night we took Izaak to Monster Jam at the BOK Center. We took him last year, and he loved it. So, one of his Christmas presents was a jumping monster truck with Monster Jam tickets. He was excited! Nana and Papa kept the girls, so we could have date night with just Izaak.

Here's our little man getting ready to leave the house. Can't you tell by the expression on that face that he is READY TO ROLL!

When we got there, they were racing atvs, and don't you know what that did to Izaak. He was PUMPED!

I'm hoping that after seeing this Izaak doesn't want to get into racing. They slid around that concrete floor.

We got front row seats, Izaak loved that no one was blocking his view. But, the exhaust got to Mom and Dad.

These 2 are Izaak's favorites. I was so happy that they went up against each other.

Donkey Kong vs. Grace Digger

Izaak loves going to eat junk food, too!

Mountain Dew, Pizza, and Dippin' Dots and with that said he was up past midnight playing with his monster trucks.

Here's a few pictures of the monster trucks..............

I had to include this last picture of the OUTLAW, because it was a woman driving this monster truck.

Bubby couldn't go without having some loot, so he ended up with the tshirt, necklace, and donkey kong toy.

My little man is so special. I'm so proud that he calls me Momma!

I love you, buddy!
