Just Dance

After WEEKS of practice Rylee's year end dance recital
night had finally arrived!

This little dancing diva made her mama and
grandparents very proud last week!

I cant believe that a class full of 2 and 3
year old girls rocked the stage of
a packed audience at
Rose Wagner Theater!

They all danced
~and~
we all laughed at how cute they were


After all...
THE POINT of putting your
pretty little ballerina in dance class at age 2
is for the shows where you can laugh at how
dang cute
they are!



Grandpa, Miss Thang, Mommy, and Granny Kate


Never end a fabulous show without a bow


Grand Finale

I realize that these pictures are in backward order.
That's what I get for taking a 2 week break from the blogging
world. I forget the important things like uploading pics!

Diet Coke and Milkshakes

Out running errands today we stopped by our local McDonalds for my daily
DIET COKE.
This liquid gold gets me through my days :)

McDonalds worker:
Welcome to McDonalds, what can I "make" for you today?

ME:
(thinking)...
Is this statement REALLY necessary?
Who came up with this greeting?
They should seriously be fired for being SO honest!
Its great that you can make my meal in under 60 seconds
but do you really have to acknowledge this every time I order?

Rylee:
(rolls down her window... quickly)
UMMMMM... My mom would yike a yarge diet coke with EXTA ice,
and I would yike a milkshake. Chocowate kease!

McDonalds Worker:
OOKKAAYY...
(I'm sure a very confused look on her face)
One more time?


....."A day in the life of a 3 year old drama queen".....
Life can't get much better

I'm not sure if I should laugh really hard about this story
... OR...
feel extremely embarrassed that
my daughter knows I'm addicted to DIET COKE

Lots of rain= BIG WORMS!

We were adding some flowers to the yard today...
I asked Miss if she would like to
plant a flower in a pot to take inside.

Obviously she said YES!

She knows that she now has a BIG
responsibility of making sure it doesn't die.
She "understands" that flowers need water
to live.

I don't think she totally understood.
She yelled at me when I brought the pot inside,
IT HAS DIRT IN IT MOM.
NO DIRT INSIDE!
(I guess she knows this because of the dirty feet story)





While outside I found a ton of wormies.
It has been raining here the past few days.
I found a HUGE wormie and called Rylee over to
take a look.

She found this fascinating.
She was still a little scared being so close...
but
this worm was pretty impressive.
She ran inside to put shoes on to squish the wormie.
She said she wanted it to die.

I told her not to kill it.

She listened to me...
she actually listened to me!!!
This is a first in quite a while :)


Isn't it huge??


Worms are not supposed to go in the grass according to
the know it all Diva. She tried to yell at Mr. Worm to stop and
turn around and go back to the dirt.

The wormie wouldn't listen to her.

~IMAGINE THAT~

When the yelling idea failed she tried threatening the wormie.
She told Mr. that if he didn't get back in that
dirt that she was gonna call the birds over
to come eat him
???

She is so entertaining sometimes!
