Random last month or so...

Okay, I'm going to upload lots of random pictures in this post....so hopefully all i have left to post to catch up is Christmas pics and birthday pics!!




Okay, we have 3 things going on in this picture....first, she has 2 different socks and 2 different shoes on for Wacky Wednesday at school.....second, she got her birthday ribbon in chapel today, and third, she is posing with Courderoy the Bear....Each week a student at school gets to take him home and take care of him. they have to read him his story, put him to bed and play with him...she was so excited to take him home for the night! So, the next week, she told her Uncle Aaron that he had to take her beloved Bear Bear home with him to spend the night. She packed his suitcase and blanket and toothbrush and book....Uncle Aaron went over the top!! Here are a few of his pictures he took!!



Bear Bear getting a bath.


Playing with the farm and Mr. Potato Head.





Playing with ponies and going to bed.



Getting his teeth brushed and getting his bedtime story read!


Way to go Uncle Aaron!!


Okay, here's the story....Kylie is dying for bunk beds for her and Curt....Probably never going to happen, but she wants it to.....so she decided to make bunk beds on her closet shelves for her and her babies... When I found her the first time, she was on the top one and I heard a huge crash!!! She had fallen off!!! She didn't get hurt, but she won't go on the top one again!



Curt's first day of MDO at our church. He goes Tues. and Thurs. from 9 to 2....I work there as well as floater/office help on Tues. and in Curt's class on Thurs. He does fine with me in there....Luckily he doesn't attach to me when I'm in there, he can get down there and play.



We made a fire one sat. afternoon and Kylie and I put the rocking chair in front and curled up and went to sleep!!




Curt crawled in Kylie's baby stroller one day!!! Kylie just pushed him around.....and tried to make him lay down....that didn't work so well, though!



This was Kylie's Christmas program at her school!!




Hopefully it won't take me too long to post the rest of the pictures!!!

Conversations with Kylie

Here is a conversation I wish I hadn't had with my daughter...a good friend of our recently got remarried....her daughter is in Kylie's class...

Me: We are going to go see Mrs. Kristi for a minute.

Kylie: Oh, you mean Kristi ?????? (insert last name)

Me: Well, yes, but now her last name is ?????

Kylie: Why?

Me: Well, she got married.

Kylie: How can she get married if she already has kids? (we really teach the 'right' order to do things!)

Me: Well, honey, she was married and then she wasn't and now she is again.

Kylie: oh, well....are you going to do that?

Me: No, baby, Mommy and Daddy will be together forever and forever.

Kylie: Good, because I like Daddy a lot. Were you married before and now are married to Daddy?

Me: No, baby, Daddy is the only person I've ever been married to.

Kylie: Good

Oh my gosh!!! It is getting so hard to explain things to a smart little girl!! How sad that we have to explain divorce to a child....and then it broke my heart that she is worried it would happen to us.....she reminds me every day to drive safely so we don't have a car accident.....why is she worried about that? I think she is a worrier....sometimes i just want to remind her to just be a kid!!!

I wish there wasn't a need for conversations such as those....
