This Post is for the Cricket Living in my Bathroom

There is a cricket living SOMEWHERE in my bathroom. The other night I listened to him all night long! Why is he in the bathroom when it is so lovely outside right now? I look for him - and look - and look - and whenever I think I am close he stops chirping! (Really Funny) I am sooooooo tired! So - I write this post NOT so that whoever is reading it can think that I am NUTS - but to the CRICKET --

Dear Mr. Cricket,

Just wanted to let you know that soon I will find you. You will not be so happy and chirpy when this happens. I have a GEKO living down the hall, in the other room, who is VERY hungry. When I find you - you will become his dinner. I kindly suggest that you HOP on your way.

Sincerely,

The Sleepy, Grumpy Home Owner

P.S. I have posted a photo below of the GEKO eating one of your buddies - just in case you do not believe me!

Play Group

Every Monday Ellie has Play Group! She loves it! It is the high point of her week! This week Play Group was at our house! We had a great time.

We had nutritious snacks! (OK - they weren't nutritious!)

Then we all dressed up like princesses!

Time for a wardrobe change!!

Then the girls gathered around the only boy they could find in the house and batted their eyelashes!! (Too bad he is only 7 months old!!)

We even went on horse rides!

Ellie LOVES play group and can't wait until next week!

Hero For The Day!!

This is my sis Lisa. She is the BEST! The other morning looked rather GLOOMY (putting it mildly). OK .... truthfully I was a mess! After a battling late night and Ellie throwing up I realized that I would have to call Lisa and cancel my hair appointment with her. I was sad for many reasons:

1. Lisa has the funnest hair Salon. It is called Habit! Sooooo cute!
2. My hair was really looking SAD!
3. I needed a break!

So I call Lisa -- and with a heavy heart I cancel my appointment. Next thing I know, Lisa packs up all of her stuff (hair stuff) and comes riding in on her white horse (well, her white car) and does my hair right here at my house for me! I was like a movie star!! We had a lovely time and my hair looks MARVELOUS! And she SAVED THE DAY! Thank you Lisa! You are great!
