I think they all look alot alike. the nose... same... The chin... same

beanboozled

This is the most disgusting game ever! Drayden got it from a friend of ours... It is a bit like Russian roulette. You spin the spinner and you pick out whatever color of jelly bean you land on. The catch is that even though all the jelly beans look the same, one is a yummy flavor, and one that looks exactly the same could be a yucky flavor. A few examples,

Banana or pencil shavings?, licorice or skunk spray?, coconut or baby wipes?, pear or booger?, caramel corn, or moldy cheese?, berry blue, or toothpaste?, chocolate pudding, or dog food?, popcorn, or rotten eggs?, Peach, or barf?...

Drayden's first choice.... Peach... whew... barf would have been awful!

poor Chantel... got rotten eggs, too bad! popcorn would have been yummy!

Brittany got licorice... whew... I can't even imagine what the skunk spray must taste like! yuck!
Then I unfortunately got Pencil Shavings... It was freaking disgusting~!


Not so lucky this time... Dray got Rotten Eggs too... YUCK!

It is fun to watch other people's bad luck ... lol!

Chantel's next choice was either blueberry or toothpaste... really it was toothpaste, but she really liked it! lol!

Brittany got a Centipede flavored one... She said it tasted like dirt... yuck!

It was funny to play Russian roulette jelly bean style... but about 3 rounds is more than any person can probably handle! lol!

The 'ability' cord

The first thing on Chantel's agenda was to give Annie a bath. I told her that we couldn't give her a bath until her umbilical cord fell off. Her face literally deflated when I told her it usually takes about 2 weeks.

On day 4 I was changing Annie's diaper and Chantel started freaking out. "MOM! MOM!! look her 'ability' cord is gone!!!" I laughed so hard, it was so cute! Of course we had to drop everything and bathe the baby right that very second. I was surprised that her cord fell off so fast, I swear it usually seems to take forever!

Annie loved it! She was totally chill just hanging out in the nice warm water.


We wrapped her all up in a nice snuggly towel, took her in and lotioned her with some classic pink baby lotion and she smelled so good I just sat there for 10 minutes and breathed her in. (you can tell it's winter when my skin goes from pale to 'Edward Cullen'... lol)

after a while of smelling the little cutie we had our daily photoshoot, she pooped on the white blanket, and Mitch told me is served me right for torturing his baby girl. I had to remind him that he bought me a new lens for my camera so DUH I'm gonna use it! Besides, she is the cutest thing ever~

I love peeking in on you when you are playing with your babies, and you change their diapers... and nurse them... lol... you are going to be the best mommy ever someday!


Thanks for being so gorgeous... I am so proud of you! Thanks the very most for loving to have your picture taken... heaven knows mommy needs the practice~~

I wish I was 3.

I find it fascinating that my three year old can fall asleep in 1.5 seconds at any given moment during the day, but when it comes to bedtime she is bright eyed and bushy tailed. I wish I could just flop down and go to sleep whenever I wanted to.

This picture she is eating an apple and playing with her new baby... what a funny child she is.

This one was taken while I was at work, but to me it looks like she was just walking along and she fell down and went to sleep.

She was waiting to get her teeth brushed... apparently I was taking too long.
