Fairy Tale Souvenirs



Brother Scoop is continuing to enjoy kindergarten. Today's "fairy tale souvenir" was a crown like Jack and Jill might have worn...or Birthday Bear...then because Sister Scoop had a stroller for all her kids, he had to figure out a way to transport Birthday Bear to the park on his pedal car. Look closely and you will see that Papa Scoop got a doll carseat attached to the front. Gotta love bungee cords...

Sister Scoop is modeling the "flower hat" from the balloon artist at dinner and showing off her Pink Poodle Princess, Pink Poodle Princess Puppy and her doll Mikayla!

High Flying Pool fun with Cousins

We attempted to recreate our Gulf Shores Alabama fun here at home. We got all the cousins together and played and played and played. As you can see, they are all water babies and beach bums that love to swim!

High School Musical Party!

Headed to the party (with doll and stroller...)
A sign of the times... the kids were invited to a party for the debut of "High School Musical 2." When we got there they said, "Goodbye mom and dad."

So...we left. They had a blast dancing and eating. The best part was they got to hang with their pool friends and the lifeguards from the pool, the hostesses.

Both kids have adopted a hideous fake smile...sorry.

Homework, Preschool Style


On assignment for preschool, yes, preschool homework, Sadie was asked to draw a family picture.

From left: (in her words)
"Dad with his big kite (I to make the legs bigger because I messed up...)
Me in the middle holding flowers in a vase. My mom is red and she is holding the flowers with me. My brother is holding Dora's leash and she is pink, with tag because she runs away. My brother is holding Molly's circle leash and Molly has an M tail because her name is Molly and Mama Kitty is on Molly's leash so she doesn't run away and she has a tag on."

Needless to say, this took 45+ minutes....but she is proud of her masterpiece!
