Kids say the darndest things!

Had to share this: Tonight Lilly only ate a few bites of supper. Said her tummy hurt and she wasn't hungry. I didn't push the issue cause she is usually a really good eater and if she is hungry she will eat. Anyway later when Eventt got home we went on bike rides played at the park and both girls played really hard. Needless to say when we got home they were starving. After a bagel with cream cheese, warmed up supper, and milk. Lillian said, "mommy there is something wrong with my mouth, its still really hungry and wants to eat!" I died. She then topped off the night with a bowl of cereal. I am still laughing about it!!! Maybe there is something wrong with my mouth too...it always wants to eat :)

Preschool

We are getting settled in to going to preschool Monday, Tues, and Wed., Lilly so far is loving every minute of school, thank goodness. Addie is getting use to Lillian leaving her for a few hours. At times she takes advantage of it and gets into the toys and "jewelry" Lilly never lets her play with. I am very pleased with her preschool and love to hear her stories about what she did at school that day. Here are a few pics I copied off the Preschool web site:

Every child gets their special day and they can bring in a show and tell. This is Lillian showing of her kitty cats. It was a huge it with the kids.

Lillian Started Pre School & Kitty Delema

So the girls have been wanting a kitty since Aunt Ashley got her little Gibby. Anyway, our good friends Sheba and Rob just happened to have a litter of kitties and according to Sheba she had the perfect grey kitty for us, until a black little kitty was dropped off at the police station. Both kittens are very mellow and allow the girls to carry them everywhere all day long. We have decided we will give the kitty thing a try for 1 week. Not sure if we will keep them or just one of them or both? Right now they are fun and the girls are loving them. I just don't know if I want 2 cats in the house. Lillian loves to put them in a basket and carry them around. Addison is in heaven and loves to just hold them on her lap.






Big girl Lillian started Pre school this week. She went Tues and Wed. So far she is loving it. She never gives me tons of details she says " I can't remember". But I get bits and pieces from her each day on what they did and what she is learning. I think this is going to be a good thing for her. I'm excited for her to learn new things and be around more kids. I cannot believe my first baby is going to school already. It seems like only yesterday she was crawling around on the floor. She was excited to use her Minnie mouse backpack Aunt Ashley got her from Disneyland in Ca.

First Disney Trip!!

I had a feeling when I was planning the Orlando vacation that this would be our best Vacation yet, and it was!! We decided to go to Orlando a few months ago because our original vacation was canceled because we went to Texas for Eventt's Hardware award instead. We decided to celebrate Lillian's 4th birthday in Disney. We arrived in Orlando Monday night and Tues. We had our first day at the Magic Kingdom. The first day we mostly rode rides and visited princesses. Wednesday of our vacation we spent relaxing and swimming. Our time share resort has another nearby resort that we are able to uses for free. We drove the 10 minute drive and swam in that pool for a bit. Wed. night grandpa and grandma B. arrived. The girls loved waiting for them at the airport. Thurs. we spent the day at Animal Kingdom. Friday the guys went golfing (which ended up being about 100 miles away, a crazy drive, got lost 5 times) But it was all worth it cause the guys said golfing was great. Saturday was Lillians Birthday and we went to Magic Kingdom for our 2nd day. I was really glad we spent 2 days there. It was a perfect time to visit there too. We didn't have to wait in line for anything. It was GREAT!!! I will explain more below in the pics. But for sure we made some fun family memories. I will never forget this!













Lillian blowing out her Birthday cupcake candle. We had "birthday cake" in the Magic Kingdom Park after lunch, but Lillian (having the sweet tooth she has) said are we going to have cake with a candle later so I can blow it out? Ha Ha, so daddy got her a special cupcake and she loved it.

On the 2nd day at the Magic Kingdom we went to many amazing shows. This show was The Lion King. At the end Lillian was asked to go down and dance in front of everyone. She loved it. She smiled the entire time!














At the Animal Kingdom we got to see tons of amazing animal exhibits. This is the girls looking at the tigers.







Grandpa and Grandma B rode all the rides too!

The girls were lucky enough to meet every princess. Ariel, probably both girls favorite princess, spent tons of time with each girl talking with them and signing their princess books.

Sleeping Beauty











Cinderella


































The girls both got "made" over at the bibbidi bopity boutique. They were in heaven and truly believe they are now princesses. The "Fairy God Mothers in Training" were wonderful with the girls. Lillian got extra special attention because it was her birthday. Addison got amazing attention because she is so cute :)

Lillian picked out the Jasmine costume. Everyone has to act surprised though cause she plans on being Jasmine again for Halloween.

We brought a few small gifts for Lillian to open on her birthday. She loved all the attention and fun.
