Out of the Mouth of Allison

Where's Daddy?

Allison has had a rather difficult time not having her daddy at home (Thank you Vet school !) This first week of him being back at school, she's stood at the top of the basement stairs and called for him, and I've had to tell her, "Daddy is at school." After several questions of "Where is Daddy?" and several answers of "He is at school..." she finally told me, "no mommy, he not at school, he lost!" So if you've seen our missing Daddy... please send him home :):):)

Dream Come True...

Allison, "Momma, you marry a prince?"
Momma, "Yes Allison, I married your Daddy. Daddy is a prince."
Allison (with a silly grin and very unbelieving), "noooooooooooo!"

later that day.......
Allison, "Momma, Daddy my prince?"
Momma, "Sure Allison, Daddy can be your prince."

Once again.... it is a great thing that Cole has a fan club with a few members .... hehehehehe

Happy Birthday Grandpa Tex!!!!!!

Our new room...

Cole and I were thinking that perhaps it was time to move Brett into a toddler bed as his crib was about to fall apart (possibly due to the jumping, rocking, and hanging on the edges by both children). We got online to look for a bed. Did we find Brett a bed? NO... we found Allison a princess canopy bed. Then we thought, well I guess Brett can just have Allison's plain and boring toddler bed and she can have the princess bed.... LAME? right???? So the following is what happened from the mere thought that "I think it is time for Brett to have a toddler bed!"....

The princess bed came, Daddy and Allison put it together while Brett and Mama went grocery shopping
Please note the princess stickers on the wall that also came in the mail to match the bed

Allison was ready to "go to bed" all day :)


Brett was attempting to help build the frame for his "bed fort"

We shall see how long it takes these two to go to sleep tonight!!!!!
