Thursday, November 30th, 2006“I want a free taco!” ~Annie
This is what she calls Taco Bell tacos. We have no idea why. She also imitates the little Taco Bell chihuhua very well when saying Taco Bell. So cute. She calls the lettuce, salad, and likes to share a couple of pieces of cheese with her [...]

Friends are Friends forever!
Wednesday, November 29th, 2006Sometimes in life you are lucky enough to find someone you cherish beyond belief. No, I am not talking about your spouse, although that person most assuredly should be a good friend, perhaps the best friend ever. I am talking about a best friend. Someone who knows all about you. Someone [...]

Saturday, November 25th, 2006Mimi just went poopoo on the baby toilet!!! WOW!!! I cannot even imagine her being potty trained too.
She has been wanting to have her diaper off most the time these days. I am not sure if this was just a lucky day or the beginning of something great. Only [...]
How was our Thanksgiving?
Friday, November 24th, 2006It was a wonderful day. We enjoyed time at home together and then headed out to Grammy and Papa’s for a huge feast. The kids were not all that hungry but that is not odd for a large family gathering. Often they get kinda side tracked and don’t eat much. [...]

My parents who have given me roots to achieve all I have.
My children who have brought so much happiness into my life.
My friends who have been there with me through thick and thin.
My family who I will share Thanksgiving with.
My children’s laughter and candor which bring [...]
Small Talk
Wednesday, November 22nd, 2006Kimberly: “Did you get a soda at QT?”
Me: “Yes.”
Kimberly: “That’s nice.”
Conversation in our patio swing after I got home. She had never seen the soda as it was still in the house. Maybe you had to be there, but the conversation came out of nowhere.
Partial seizures
Tuesday, November 21st, 2006For a while there it seemed like Miss Madeline was doing okay. She was still experiencing side effects from the pheno but she was doing okay. Today she has had 3 partial seizures. We are not sure where to go from here.
We do not want to test her further just [...]
The flu
Tuesday, November 21st, 2006Kimberly has come down with the flu. We have never really dealt with this before. Any tips and hints would be appreciated. I have been giving her a large tupperware and she has made it in there. I need to convince her to put her hair back in a hair pretty [...]
Deck the halls
Sunday, November 19th, 2006We decorated the house for Christmas last night. The girls love everything so much. The Hallmark snowmen from the past 3 years are one of their favorites. The house looks so festive and nice and the girls are so excited for Santa. Next step is to try to convince [...]

Monday, November 13th, 2006“Oakmeal is not princess food” ~Kimberly
She told me this this morning when I was making oatmeal for breakfast. She did not eat the oatmeal but she did eat her bagel. Perhaps that is princess food?
Can it be?

Said after peeling the cornbread off the corn dog she was eating.
Love hate relationship
Thursday, November 9th, 2006People say that there are the terrible two’s. Let me tell you the two’s are nothing compared to the three’s. The three’s are turbulent at best. They are gaining so much independence and learning so much in the world. They can drive you to the point you think you may not [...]
