Holidays

Today on the spur of the moment run, my step-daughter and I decided to go back in time to our own roots.

Yes I am only in my late 20's and I am already going grey. Can you believe this? It was beginning to look really bad in the front and I was tired of trying to tame all the grey hairs… sooo we head to Target and get us some dye to do our hair.

My step-daugher went back to her natural black color like my youngest daughter and I went and did my natural dark brown color all over. All in all it looks really good on both of us.

BUT….. Madisyn wants to do her hair. I had to sit down and have a little talk with her and she still just said but mommy I just want to be like you and KK. She can really tug on the ohhh heart strings.

For now, I believe I will only let my five year old and three year old do this type of dyeing:

Soooo… my Madisyn and I were in the kitchen this evening cooking supper. She is my little helper every evening. I love that she wants to be right there and help me every step of the way too.

Well we were just talking back and forth and I asked her… so Madisyn what do you think the Easter bunny will bring you in your basket Sunday? She said, I think the bunny will have me a cinderella castle, with white horses, then she looked at me and went: Mom you know I am getting older right? I said yes you sure are honey. She said I think the bunny should bring me a cell phone that is pink with rainbow sparkles on it. I just looked at her like, you are a little too young for your own cell phone babe.

When my husband came in this evening, I said ask Madisyn what she wants the bunny to bring her Sunday. He asked her and of course she told him the same thing. He said, honey you are much to young for one right now. She looked at him and said but daddy, I need to start practicing of how to dial the phone numbers. All the kids have one! Sigh!! She is only 5!

She cracks me up so much everyday with how she talks and yes I was laughing at this and thinking what do I have in store for me years to come. I mean HELLO, I didn't get my first cell phone until I graduated high school.

I was talking with a good friend on the phone tonight and her little boy will be 9 soon and she was telling me several kids at his school has them. What are parents thinking? Now I can understand the ones where you can program to just have your numbers in it, but still at 9 years old my children will be with me the biggest majority of the time. I mean come on, my oldest daughter is 5 and has never ever spent the night away from me. She even stayed at the hospital with me when I had my youngest daughter ;).

Moms what are your opinions on this? Love to hear from you! 

Can you believe Santa took a break from his busy schedule from the North Pole to fly in to our pool here in our community today? Yep. Madisyn couldn't believe it.

I dressed her up in her Christmas dress and we went to have cookies and drink with him. She did so good. Now Lyndsee on the other hand wanted to get out of there FAST!

Here are some picts I wanted to share:
