Wonderful Chaos...

I am thankful for the mess to clean after a party because it means I have been surrounded by friends. ~Nancie J. Carmody

The mess wasn't that bad, actually. The sugared up hyper baby on the other hand...Lets just say 2 days of parties, cousins, cake and ice cream did not lead to a very restful birthday night for this little one...
Waiting for the arrival of party guests. We went with a rainbow theme if you can't tell...Her easy, simple but cute cake...Her best effort at a "CHEESE" while her cartoons were so very distracting. Oh, and lets not forget the tutu. She has not taken it off but for bed and bath all week...Keeping her busy by decorating cupcakes. Well, see those two skittles on that cupcake? She ate more skittles and marshmallows than decorated...Showing off her new Dora potty seat. Practical gifts from mom and dad.Trying on her new clothes. Attempting to try them on, at least!As the party was winding down, we had her all dressed up in her new play clothes. She lays down on the floor, sighs loudly, and says "I tie-owed." Poor baby. Partied out.

What TWO means to Haddie:
*"Haddie do it"
*"Waisins pease mommy" (raisins)
*"Cha" (yeah)
*"Mommy ok?" "A Daddy going?" "Horsey ah better?" always concerned about everyone
*Dora, Diego, Wonder Pets...well pretty much anything Nick or Disney.
*Coloring
*Jumping
*Paigey
*2...3...5! or its 6...7...9...ready not I come!
*her new fishies. there are four of them, but they are still 2,3 & 5. no 4 or 1.
*singing "Happy to you!" and "5 monkey song"
*Red cowboy boots
*Trouble
*Loves
*anytime she bumps a body part, she kisses her own (finger, arm, knee) then proceeds to kiss whatever she bumped (table, floor, ball.)
*And her new thing, when she is doing something she is not supposed to, she not only barely hides, but keeps her eyes shut. I guess this way I can't see her being naughty, because she can't see me?
*I love this little girl more than anything in the world. She keeps me busy, but that is just what this lazy girl needs! A Haddie!

REVISED

So I mentioned I was taking pictures of Hadley today...and I LOVE THEM!! So I had to repost this:
And here are a few more...

.*.Amazing.*.

First I need to show off a little...Well, not me show off, but show off for my oober talented SIL Jocelynne. She made this wonderful quilt, and for some silly reason decided I was worthy enough to receive it (I promise I'm not!)She is such an amazing quilter, not a point off mark. Not just quilter, but scrapbooker, artist, photographer. I don't like to be around her much, I start to feel very amateur! (jk I love you, just try not to be so good!)

And now for some matters of business...
My mom has been working so hard to put together a party for my grandmas birthday. Here is the invite, saving on postage, I won't lie. Come and enjoy with us!
Also...(tears, sniffle, and timeouts!)
For my family and friends, this will be in your mail shortly...I hope. I am going to try and get some pictures of Hadley today to send also. I am so slow!
Sad thing is, I haven't even thought of what to get her!

Lazy Post

I did this *25 things* for my Facebook, and it took me so stinkin long, I can't justify a new, creative post. So I am just going to paste it here too. Though most of this is what I have posted about already, and really will bore you. And I am not going to tag anyone, so enjoy my ramblings!

1. Im not very good at these type of things!
2. I have had the same, or a reoccurring cold for over 4 weeks. My sinuses could use a break!
3. My dream house has a nice big studio, where I have room to color, paint, sew, hide, with maybe good lighting for some photography, also. And there will be glitter. Too much to ask?
4.I am so very nervous about a new baby. And a long hot pregnant summer. CHERRY HILL HERE I COME!
5.Too much talk today about new, sharp crayons. I might be headed to the store later to buy some. For me. New crayons, markers, colored pencils make me very happy. Hadley has been too naughty with crayons lately, so I might also have to buy some Magic Erasers!
6. I love decorating. I am trying to plan out my (almost) 2 year olds new room, but really it will be my dream room. Lots of bright colors, lots of little bins and organizers, and maybe a funky homemade mobile! I can't get away with rainbows anywhere else in the house!
7. I waste a lot of time on the computer.
8. I hate winter. All I can dream about is Spring. Mosquitoes, allergies, soppy wet grass, and sunlight past 5:30 is all sounding delicious to me!
9. I am only to 9 and already stumped. I don't think I am a very interesting person...Hm.
10.
11.
12.Um, I do hair?
13.My car currently has all 5 (or is it 6?) food groups either smashed, crunched or smeared everywhere in it. A transient could eat for a week off of what Hadley has disposed of in there. Embarrassing, huh?
14. I hate LOL. I never laugh out loud when I read that. Same with TTFN. Sorry, but I am grumpy today. Tried to warn you.
15.I'm trying to be a more positive person. Its really hard though, I like to complain.
16.I hate to be naked. As soon as I get out of the shower, clothes come on. I can't sleep naked either.
17. I usually can't start my day until I have touched base with my mom. What are you doing today...guess what Hadley is doing...I think that is why its 11 and I'm still in my pajamas. Haven't talked to my mom yet...
18. I am deathly afraid of mice, rats, rodents in general. Cats even bug me. And birds too.
Dogs are ok, as long as they don't jump or sniff my crotch, or get slobber on me.
19. I love camping. And getting sunburned. I know, cancer. But I don't tan, so it's the only way I get any color. And it clears up my complexion.
20.Big words intimidate me. Using them, spelling them, all of the above. I guess I am just not a very educated person. I talk like a hillbilly most of the time...
21.I share socks with my husband. I don't like womens socks, they fit too loose around my ankles. I like tight, crew mens socks.Thats all we share though, I wear my own underwear.
22.This has taken me entirely too long.
23. My ears just popped! Oh praise the heavens, its been 4 days! I'm scared to swallow now, I know they will clog again!
24. The last 2 have to be something good, right? Well, no pressure. I have an unhealthy obsession with vintage. Except for the smells, I cant do that. But I love avocado green, bold flower prints, and velvet orange curtains. MMM, love. And granny squares.And thrift clothes. Funky old ones, but they have to smell ok, no stainage.
25!I am starting to feel old. 28. I think its' time to retire my glitter eyeshadow and need for pink, funky hair dye. At my age, I start to look more like a sad stripper than a fun, young girl. But I need a little bit of fun still. Thats where the gaudy jewelry comes in...

The sad thing is Facebook doesn't have spellcheck and blogger does. Oh sad. I mispell a lot!
