Where Does The Time Go??

My cool new helmet I got on my birthday!

I got this for my birthday too but I am not sure what it is or what it is for but as of yesterday I found out... when mom and I played out in the rain... it was fun and I stayed dry. She said playing in puddles will be even more fun.

Do I look pregnant??? I am thinkin' not if I want to live :)

New pearl flower earrings from Grandma

Blowing out the candles like Grandma's gift says

Uncle Steve trying to hide my cute-ness like that's possible

More birthday gifts at Uncle Steve and Aunt Deb's house from them and Grandma J....

Are you sure I don't look pregnant???

Having fun with Grandma J

See I am just as cute at they are... Cheese!!!

Excited to go through the door to the Precious Moments Chapel

In the main chapel area where there are tons of awesome paintings with so much meaning

I believe this was called Grandpa's Cabin at the Precious Moments Chapel

Out in the field by the Chapel

Mikayla caught taking pictures like mommy only she used her necklace, it had a button to push so I guess it worked for her....

The Precious Moment!!!! Priceless!

I "AM" a movie star!!!!!

Daddy helping me with my first putt putt game

Look how good I am and how cool I look on the green....

Walking my Doggy in the Condo (pic from my phone)

Getty Up Horsey!!!! Hee Haaa!

This train practically runs itself so I can just sit here and be cute, I mean cool!!!

Outside of Noah's Ark

If you look close you can see all the hungry fish... they were big and very hungry.

At the Wild Animal Safari caught just in time

Mikayla telling the goat to get down... I guess if Louie and Jake are not aloud to jump neither are the goats

petting her first animal at the Safari... I was waiting for the America's Funniest Video but it never came...

We are statues, we are statues, we are statues...

Read my lips "They might be but, I AM NOT A STATUE"

Am I a Lion or a Tiger can you tell??? You are probably wrong... I am a half breed and that would mean I am both and called a Liger (I believed it was spelled)

Give me food, Please?

Do you have food in here?????

Yummy, Thanks little one!!!

Mom getting a little hug as Mikayla looks on and gets a smooch on the cheek on the sly

Why you ask is this Pecker not eatting...that would be because I am not stupid this window is closed....these enu's are dangerous. Some feed them but I am not that brave, I like all ten of my fingers.

It seems that I have migrated to up dating the blog every other week without any plan to.... time just has been escaping me and I can only see it going by faster as time goes by. If we are not busy doing something or traveling, I am dealing with the boys or dealing with a migraine which I have been doing the last 3 days. I am over the migraine with just a touch of a headache but dealing with a sick boy that may go back to the Doc on Monday if he does not get better by then. As far as my actual update of news and pics for you that would go as follows... First we had Mikayla's first birthday with us as she turned the big TWO which she had lots to open from Grandma, Aunt Georgette and Cousins Dominique and Sabrina including her new helmet for her tricycle and/or her airplane. It matches the colors of her bike and has her name on the back of it, she thinks it is sooo cool. After her birthday we headed to get Grandma J to take her to Branson with us. The trip was definitely an adventure with a flat tire on the rental car and all. While stopping over night at Aunt Deb and Uncle Steve's we got some gifts there from them and Grandma J for her birthday and headed out for Branson. We detoured through Carthage and visited the Precious Moments Chapel and while there picked up the parts for Mikayla's Birthday Train getting that up to date. From there we were Branson bound where we shopped and played and did some swimming. We cruised the Landing, stopping at a play area for some fun on the slide, ride a horse and drive a train. We watched the water and fire fountain show there at The Landing for two different shows. We visited the fish hatchery and fed some hungry fish, played some putt putt golf, played in our condo, did some swimming and went to see Noah's Ark the Musical with a back stage pass. We also fed lots of different animals at the Wild Animal Safari. Mikayla was not afraid at all to touch and feed them all. I think mom was more worried about Mikayla loosing a finger to some then she was. Today, we partied at a good friends baby shower who is getting ready to head out to China to bring her little baby girl home. It has been really busy and we have been on the go go go. Coming home getting the boys is when my work began again as we are working to put Louie's weight back on (as he loses so much at their hotel and doesn't have much too loose) and Jake came home with a cold (I believe a case of Kennel Cough even after having the shot). I am having to get them both back in shape as we will be off to Tennessee soon and want them to be well by then (although the Vet Tech is going to make it her person job to watch and take care of them as top priority, we will see how that works). Soon after Tennessee, we will be off to Council Bluffs, Iowa to visit Lila and Grace for their big birthday bash, we can't wait to see them again. Until next time I am sure their is enough pics and video to tide you over. Blessings!
First we have Mikayla at The Landing Slide
Here we have Mikayla's first Putt Putt game
This is one of The Landing Fountain shows with water and fire.... notice how far from the fountain we are standing yet when they blast out the fire throughout the show you can feel the heat almost burning you, it is that hot... I don't know how people sit so close unless the heat rises over them but I would think they feel some of it...maybe next time I will get that close and find out.
