The Big Dance

Kentucky's not the only one busy "dancing" this week. Adelyn has had several exciting dance parties at her house lately. And what's on her play list you ask? High School Musical of course! 
Last year Adelyn had some help filling out a tournament bracket based on whose mascot she liked better. She did surprisingly well and picked several upsets. Matt & I were pretty excited that this year she would actually have an opinion and it went really well...

Matt: Ok, Adelyn who do you want to win Ohio St. or UT-San Antonio?
Adelyn: KENTUCKY!

M: Um, ok...how about George Mason or Villanova?
A: KENTUCKY!!


M: No, you have to pick either George Mason or Villanova
A: KENTUCKY!!


M: Ok, we'll come back to that one. How about Kentucky or Princeton.
A: Umm...Princeton.


After that they moved on to mascots...

M: Ok, lets try mascots. Do you want the Owls or the Lions to win?
A: How bout da Owls AND da Lions.

Mabye we'll wait until next year to fill out Adelyn's bracket.

We'll be cheering on the Cats tomorrow in Tampa! (Please play better than you did on Thursday.)

C-A-T-S
Cats! Cats! Cats!

A very similar conversation happened in our house! Hallie has a bracket in our family pool. What we ended up doing was finding a site that had all the mascots and we just had her choose between two pictures for each matchup. She did pick UK to win it all, because she really does like the wildcat (brainwashed). :c) I bet you all had an awesome time today. Go Cats!!!

I was telling this story to someone just yesterday. Even people who've never met Adelyn think this is absolutely hilarious.

Also, I think she's good luck. She seemed to be of the opinion that Kentucky will win, no matter what. So far... she's been right. :)

Are you ready for this?

Monday was a very exciting day at our house. I celebrated turnig 29 (Yikes! I'm getting old) and we had a fetal echocardiogram to check on Baby Lilly #2. We didn't get any great shots because once again this little baby had their hand right next to their face. A very comfy position apparently. I'm happy to report that my birthday this year was a million times better than last year  and Baby Lilly's heart looks great! But that's not what you want to know now is it. Nope, you want to know what our name list looks like...So far Matt has suggested Jelaine  and Lapchild (for traveling purposes) and Adelyn has suggested Adelyn, Susie, Martha (if it's a boy), and Baby Scruffa Muffin. Still not what you're looking for? Hmm, how about that Baby Lilly #2 is a... BOY!!! And while we are so not ready for a boy and a little shocked we're really exicted too. Thanks to everyone who voted, commented or left me messages on facebook about the Chinese Calendar. Both i...

Two!

On August 2nd the Buddy Boy turned 2! He was and still is so incredibly proud of himself over this achievement.   Caiden is the most perfect combination of all boy and sweet and snuggly toddler that there ever could be! He loves trucks and balls, throws caution to the wind, and has a stubborn streak that isn't going anywhere. He adores his daddy more than I can explain, loves to get kisses from mommy and wants to do everything his big sister does. We never knew how much we needed this little boy until he arrived and we are so humbled and blessed because we were chosen to be his mommy and daddy.   How can we thank God enough for you in return for all the joy we have in the presence of our God because of you?   1 Thessalonians 3:9

"I have ponytail!"

Yesterday Adelyn wanted me to fix her hair in a ponytail. I can assure you it's much harder than it sounds. Poor kid got my hair. But she doesn't know it and after seeing herself in the mirror she was so proud. The first thing she wanted to do was show daddy. So, we made him a video... At dinner I was lamenting about how grown up she looks and that it makes me kind of sad. Matt's sympathetic response? "Her hair really isn't long enough for a ponytail if you ask me. She looks like a boy from the front and when she turns to the side she looks like a pirate." Ahh, just what every girl wants to hear, "you look like a pirate."
