Hot Pink Mini Mamma 62/365


Hot Pink Mini Mamma 62/365, originally uploaded by krispycrunch6.

This girl loves her heels and her new "purple dots dress".
The shoes caused her feet to bleed, but she insisted I give her a Dora the Explorer "bandad" and she put the shoes back on. I guess a girl needs to get used to standing on 2 inch heels at some point in time, even if it means a little blood will be shed.

Somedays, I Wish I Could See What Lies Ahead. 61/365

Most days I want to take each day as it comes.There are so days when I am impatient and a worrier at times, those days I want to see the future. Hmmm, probably not a good thing.

On to other things, the 365 blog has gone out the window. Life keeps getting in the way, not to mention I feel a little self serving talking about me and my family all the time. I suppose could mix things up a little and find other things to discuss.

I would to discuss why do they make so many movies about violence and anger. I am so tired of those movies, I long for a great feel good movie. I have been hoping the movie industry would make some of my favorite books into movies: The Wedding, is an awesome book about marriage and love and the realities of being a couple. The Saving Graces is another one I would love to see on the big screen. A moving story about 4 girlfriends and their lives as individuals and as a group of friends. Finally, how about The Red Tent, an incredible book about Dinah from the bible and the relationships between the all the women..
My theory is, the movie industry caters to men, teens and children and not women. I for one, love movies about women and for women. I say bring us some good movies and slow it down with all the movies about Vampires, Blue Avatars, and Drug Lords. I don't have any interest in them now or ever.

Ugh, I'm out of breath, that was a rant. Sorry, I am back to normal now..I hope this blog finds you doing well and living in love.

Family Room Fort 60/365


Family Room Fort 60/365, originally uploaded by krispycrunch6.

Just another rainy day in the big state of Texas.Once again the kids were housebound and in need of entertainment...This is so much better than television, a favorite at our house.

I can't even count the number of forts that have been built in this room over the past 14 years...I can tell you each and everyone has been unique and loved by its occupant. This one is a bit wimpy, but it served its purpose..

Isn't it fun to play in a fort when the weather is too yucky to go outside..Caroline and Phoebe sure thought so, although I had to keep rebuilding this little puppy..Phoebe did not understand that she should not pull down the blankies and Yogi would not stay away.

A Look Back~Bench Monday 59/365



I took this shot on the right this morning as the Bebe was watching the rain and it reminded me of a shot I caught last year. I went through the 2009 archives and found the shot on the left. It had been taken near the end of Feb last year. I am so glad she was caught in the window again this year.

Amazing how quickly the kids change in a year.. I know I am certainly growing also, out not up, but it's still growth..I guess I need to lay off the cookies, and kids left overs. I am learning that I now eat when I am stressed, so look out Jenny Craig a new spokesperson is on the way.
Hopefully, I will come up with another way to handle stress, any suggestions? I think going to Florida and relaxing at the beach and spending time with family would help. I wonder if I can get the doc to write that in a prescription? I wonder if my insurance would pay for the travel? Hello, this is medically necessary!! Some things to ponder to when I sit down to the apple tart I plan to make for dessert tonight. MMmmMMMmmmm.
