GOOD MORNING KITTY

"Oh mom! I have a question for ya! Today we eat pretzels with the deer! We help them back, go to the princess castle. We can fly like a bird! We cannot ride on a dragon. But we can ride on a horsey!"

This girl has big plans for today. I was just thinking I'd do some laundry.:)

SHOPPER

Today Kitty and I went shopping. Nowhere fancy, just Target and the children's consignment shop. But boy did we have fun. This girl looks at everything. And wants to carry it around. I could have filled a cart with everything she wanted. Thankfully she is very good about saying "goodbye, I will see you soon!" So it isn't too hard to get out of the store. Just a few pics from our morning.....

       Pushing a cart while haulin stuffed             puppies

And trying on a dress so cute that she said,"Mom, take a picture of me!" Of course, it was insanely cute so we HAD to buy it. Any dress with a yellow belt needs to be purchased. Period.

We also picked up a her outfit for dance class which starts on Monday. I CAN'T WAIT to see this chick dance. Hopefully without her blue microphone which she is pretty sure she needs to take to dance class. She has told me so about ten times. Who dances without singing? The girls got a point.

HARDBALL

This morning, while putting on his socks, Nick was telling me about a fun basketball contest they are having at school. In honor of the upcoming NCAA tournaments, all the kids have been divided into basketball teams of three. They are going to play each other and whoever is the last team standing gets to play agains three oDenver Nugget players in a championship game. "And one of them is Ty Lawson, mom."  So he was telling me about his team, that one guy is tall but none of them are awesome ball players. He also told me who is good and how his team is hoping to beat them..... they have a plan. And it is called "The Gazelle." It involves Nick sliding on the floor and his buddy jumping over him and slam dunking te ball. He reassurred me that "Nobody's gonna stop it." '

Then Ben came into the kitchen. The two were discussing Nick's upcoming wins. I overheard the following phrases during their conversation......

"We're goin' cheap."
"Play dirty, Nick, but don't get caught."
"Let's break a clavicle. Ready? Clavicle on three!"

Oh, BOYS!
