Yes, this is Bean playing with none other than U2! We have been playing a little Rock Band since Christmas and Blakeslie loves to Jam! My awesome cousin made this picture for us- Thanks Lindsay!!! Blakes totally thinks she is famous!
Blakeslie’s birthday was a week long event. It started with cupcakes for her preschool celebration, then on her actual birthday we went to the Discovery Museum, it ended with her High School Musical Fabulous Swimming Party! It was a great week, but Mom is glad it is over!
I will not be sad to be rid of the snow and cold, but I am sad we did not discover this fun place until now. For Lynna’s birthday we went to Gorgoza Park in Park City to go sledding. It was awesome! The kids loved it- even the tiny ones who fell asleep in their twirling sleds.
Chip and I were talking about our extremely crapy situation we are in with our builder. (Yes, we built our home 5 years ago and we are still dealing with the crook) Anyway, we were getting a little upset so Blakeslie says, “Mom don’t throw a fitter.” We have stopped talking about it in front of her because I have nothing but fitters for the man!
Blakeslie’s Prayer- “Dear Heavenly Father… we are thankful for this day… please bless that we can play flashlight tag and then have ice cream and then go to bed…. Please also bless that Mom and Dad won’t be grumpy until Christmas. Amen.”
After we got stuck in the snow going to school- “We need to move to Phoenix!”
Papa asked Blakeslie if mom calls her Blakeslie Grace when she is in trouble. Blakeslie said, “No, she calls me grumpy pants.”
“I’m so tired, but my heart tells me to stay up.”
We have always called Mayzie, Mayzie Pants. (I have no idea why) One day Blakeslie shouted out, “Mayzie Pantelones!”
“That’s ok, it happens to all good cooks!” Blakeslie’s response when anything gets spilled in the kitchen, originally inspired when she dropped the egg she was cracking on the floor.
"You wore me out - that's why I'm grumpy!"
"If you don't let me go potty - I'll get an ear infection."
Blakeslie tooted - Then she asked, "Do you think I woke the neighbors up?"
"When I wear these shoes- all my dreams come true!"
