Since it was too cold and rainy to play at the park, we got to go bounce ourselves crazy at Leapin' Lizards.
We lucked out at the pizza buffet. There was a clown painting faces and handed out balloons! Faith got matching tigers, and I got a frog on my cheek and a horse balloon both in GREEN!
The boys got swords.
Evrit got a snake on his cheek.
My friends came to my basketball game.
After the basketball game and having our pictures taken at Target, we headed to the mall to catch a movie, The Spy Next Door.
(She picked out her own cake - HORSES - for this early celebration. Fitting since we spent the day at the Fort Worth Stock Show.)
She cut and served her own cake and did a fabulous job.
We celebrated with Meemaw and G-Daddy a little early. Thanks to Uncle Jim and Aunt Frances for sending the really awesome gifts!
We had lots of fun celebrating Monica's birthday. We had homemade pizza and cake and played Mexican train for hours. Good times!

Listening to wise advice and counsel
(We have had fun watching Madeline grow as a basketball player this season.)
And now tooth #4 is out. She noticed a chunk in her apple sauce as she was eating at school. We are glad that she didn't swallow the tooth.

Third tooth out!
Running in the house ISN'T a good idea!
I NEED "ip tick"!!!!! Okay, okay... (I promise we didn't leave the house like this. Hee hee hee.)
Madeline spent a LONG time making cards for her friends at school. She did a fantastic job!
Look at those kids working together and doing dishes. Alright, so they are only unloading and loading the dish washer, but Mom is still impressed and thankful.
Aren't they a couple of really cute frogs?
In the end those frogs became a prince and princess. We loved watching The Princess and the Frog at the movie theater.
Ribbit!
I got a new hair cut. Mom's not so sure about it, but at least hair doesn't get in my eyes when I put on my hat. I have also acquired a new interest in trains. Choo choo!
"Momma, I want to make angels. I need some rolls or tubes and white paper. Some scissors and googly eyes would be nice too. Ta-da! Evrit is the big one, and I am the little one." She really tried to make halos out of pipecleaners but couldn't get it to work out so I helped on that. Other than that, she came up with the idea and did the rest by herself. Great job, Madeline!
Catching some air at the mall playing with Charlie
Didn't we make a FANTASTIC Advent Calendar?!
Madeline got a new school backpack and decided to wear her tiara to school on Hat Day. She makes me speechless.
This guy also has a tendency to render me speechless. He decided to put on some lotion during our garage sale. Oh my!
