Girl Day!

We have had a great couple of days.  John Campbell is doing great and doesn't want to nap as much so i know he is feeling better!  Mike had a meeting most of the day yesterday so the kids and i hung out at the house.  We got to really play some while cam slept.  They like to set up this pop up fire truck we have and then we all had to carry a lunch box around which ben called our "luggage".  Millie said she had pistachios in hers and showed me where she was going to put the peels...pistachios...hilarious.  

Our tv is getting repaired so the other day when i came around the corner i found ben in the entertainment center.  Millie got in soon after and Mike said he was going to watch American Idol so the kids shut the doors on the tv cabinet and would push them open and start singing....then of course ben had to get his guitar and millie had to get some shades.  And then they HAD to do bible study in the cabinet too.  

Ben just recently started to play soccer!  He has only had one practice and our friend jake is the coach and his little girl eva is on the team too.  Ben LOVED practice.  He was so excited and when we were leaving he had to make sure that they were going to have it again the next week.  When we were headed home he was trying to tell me something about jake and he said "pastor...uh..pastor..."  and i said you mean "coach jake"...and he said "yeah"....he couldn't remember "coach".

Also the other day we were checking the mail and there was a lot when we opened it up and ben said "Holy Shnikeys!"....i laughed so hard!

Today was a very special day too.  It was "Girl's Day" for millie and I.  We went to stonebriar and did some shopping.  She got to ride the carousel, get a cookie, bought a dress and some sparkly shoes, got to pick out a necklace and earrings from sam moon, and picked where we ate supper...which was macaroni grill so she could have mac n' cheese!  She was so funny...we kept saying "boys are stinky...ewww....girl's day!"  She thought that was great!  It was wonderful to have some one on one time with her.  Mike got to stay home with the boys and he said they had a good day too.

  1. Looks like you and Millie had great fun! I can't wait until Piper is old enough to enjoy a girls' day like that. I still cart her around, but more often it's to take some of the kid load off Jason when I go out. :)

    Who do you think John Campbell looks like?

  2. I love the picture of my little soccer players. I can't wait to watch them play! The American Idol duo is awesome! I can just see them now. I also love this blog because I can actually hear you when I read what you've written and I imagine the expression on your face as if you're telling the story. Enjoying the updates! Love you guys - oh, have fun at the Grammys - I'm jealous of KiKi!
