So as with everything in my life, it is feast or famine. So this is most likely going to be a lengthy blog (yes, that is your warning to tune out now) since it has been awhile since I have made it in here to update. First, some good news. In April, McKenzie was awarded the Chamber of Commerce Academic Award. We celebrated in our normal fashion--with food.....a long awards ceremony should always be followed with great food. So this is McKenzie, enjoying brunch at Mimi's with his parents. He almost looks like he is enjoying it. He also has turned 16 since my last post and is licensed and legal to drive ALONE.
In Elisabeth news. Let's see, I am going to have a few as she keeps us all entertained with her great statements. May 1st was a big day for her, she went poo-poo in the potty for the first time. The boys weren't real encouraging, holding their noses when they came downstairs to see her amazing feat. Of course, when it sits dry for long in a small potty chair, with no water, it is not the most aromatic. I now know WHY there is water in a toilet. So she decided that was overrated and hasn't really been interested again since they all told her she stunk and to "just go in her pull-up next time". That is great for the training. Thanks, boys!
She loves going to our new Chuck E. Cheese, she is even happy when we just drive by and she can yell out "There's Chuck E. Cheese". She loves their "cop-n-candy" (cotton candy). Sometimes she get the hip-cups (hiccups) though. hahaha Love those little phrases.
May 29th, she says to me, rather emphatically "Are you OUTTA MY MIND?" Yes, she is picking up my favorite phrases. Only she has her own take.
My favorite as of late has to be June 9th, when she was sitting on her Daddy's lap, he is gently stroking her long blond hair, he says to her "Are you My Princess?" She turns, looks up at him lovingly, with a gleam in her eye, and says "No, I'm a witch". She must get this from me too. Princesses are so overrated. Witches have more fun, you can tell by their cackles.
