Sparkleberry Fair!!

This weekend was the Sparkleberry Fair. Hannah performed a tap and ballet dance there. It was really cute. Aunt Steph and Uncle Todd came to help me out because Buzzy was out of town. They thought the dance was hilarious because the kids really just stood there and every now and then busted a move.

Alex had a great time. Hannah and Alex rode rides and ponies, pet animals and did arts and crafts. Alex wanted to ride the biggest pony there and he rode it without Mommy holding him. AHHHH!!! It was really cute. They really had a blast and were really good for their Mommy.

Gone Fishing!!

This weekend we had a blast fishing from a dock at the end of our street. It was adorable. Hannah and Alex found some sticks in the backyard. We went and put string on the end of them. Yes, it was our homemade fishing poles. We also brought bread down for the ducks and fish. Alex was looking for Nemo all day. Some of our friends were out on the lake and came by and picked us up. It was the kids first boat ride. They had a blast. Alex kept saying, "go fast go fast." Hannah giggled the whole time. We really had a great time. We can't wait to do it again.

Single Dad!!

Yes, Buzzy is a single Dad this week. I am in Fort Myers for a work trip. Before I left we had to implement a listening spot at the house. Hannah and Alex have decided not listening is fun. Well Hannah said we need to put a piece of tape on the floor with her name and one with Alex's name so they can sit there if they don't listen. I thought that was pretty creative so we did that. I called home yesterday and Hannah told me that she added another piece of tape to the floor for Daddy. She said he had not been listening to her while I was gone. All I could do was laugh. Buzzy said this was true she added a piece of tape for him. Haha. Buzzy also had to take her to dance tonight. They gave Hannah a Tutu for her upcoming performance. Buzzy said he did not know how to put it on her. I wish I had a picture of this. Hopefully he will survive....

Wow The Pollen!!

The pollen has struck our family hard this year. Buzzy, Mommy and the kids have spent a lot of time outside this week after school. Alex is now hitting a baseball pitched by Buzzy overhand. Buzzy is very proud of his little slugger. Hannah now can swing herself on the swing. This is new this week. Now Mommy doesn't have to push her for hours at a time. With all of this being said, we all woke up this morning with severe allergies. Alex is wheezing, Hannah's eyes won't stop watering, and Mommy's whole body aches. I guess this is what happens when you play in pollen. I even have pollen footsteps throughout my house. Until next time...

The Big 35!!

Today was Buzzy's birthday. The kids were probably more excited than Buzzy because they were going to have a birthday party. While Buzzy was golfing the kids decided to get ready for the party. Hannah said she wanted her daddy to have a cake with flowers, a sun, and a picture of her whole family on it. She then went and wrapped up a present that she found in the playroom for her daddy. It was a fake cake and a plate she made from Art Elements. She even painted a card. Alex decided he wanted to do what sissy was doing. He picked out a plastic plate and a fake french fry. He put it in a bag and used an entire roll of tape fixing it for daddy. He then colored a picture for daddy and decided he would color both of his arms as well in permanent pink marker. That was a lot of fun trying to get off. Hannah counted out 35 candles. Alex and Hannah placed all of them on the cake. Yes, I did say 35. Buzzy loved his birthday celebration.

Potty Time!!

Today the director of Alex's daycare called my cell phone. The conversation was like this....

Kelley, Alex is OK. I wanted to tell you something special that happened to him today. He told his teacher that he had to go potty. She said she put him on the potty and he pooped on the potty for the first time. He was so proud that he asked his friends to come and see. The director said Alex thought he was hot stuff. They ended up celebrating the rest of the day.

Mommy is soooo proud. Alex is almost 27 months. Not bad.

Starting a blog....can you believe it!!

Well I know all my friends are in shock right now. I actually have started a blog. I thought it would be a quick way to keep my family and friends updated on our lives. I can't promise I will use correct grammar but will have fun doing this. So until next time...
