piggy tails.

i forget about piggy tails. i'm doing good to get sk's crazy hair combed each morning. she asked for "piggy TAILS" this morning so i put her hair up. it hurts her to have it put up but once it's up she is so thrilled to see herself in the mirror. she told the check-out girl at target that she was wearing "piggy TAILS." (in case the lady didn't notice....wink.)



they aren't even. it would take some time to get them just right and i only have a really small window of opportunity to get them up before a meltdown occurs. i think it's probably easier to pull straight hair through rubberbands. pulling those ringlets through is a little tricky!


she took froggy and lamby with her out to the mailbox to mail off another batch of thank-you notes. she loves to get and send off mail.

trash day. always makes for pretty pics=)


kind of hard to lift her up and take a pic, but she likes to put the letters in, close the door and put the flag up. i wish she liked to write the notes....haha!








our neighbor's lab gave birth to 11 puppies on saturday!! the sonogram only showed 5...what a surprise! i'm so glad that sort of thing doesn't happen to humans....i'd die if i came out of delivery with 6 more babies than expected. poor ella. 3 didn't make it, but they have 8 healthy 4 day old pups over there. i took sk over to see them. i wish i had gotten a pic but i was too busy making sure she didn't touch! she can play with them in a couple of weeks. right now they are just so small and delicate! their eyes aren't even open yet and ella (mommy dog) is real protective. i could tell that she didn't want sk getting too close. sk was kind of loud....PUPPIES MOMMY!!! WOOK!!

the heat index was 120 degrees here today. it was smoldering. her playset was too hot to even play on by the time we went out so she just went over to look at it;)


maybe trey will have time to get the monkey bars on this weekend...they'll go off the back.

tomorrow is our last day of swim lessons. we'll be able to sit close by tomorrow during the lesson and lindsey (the instructor) will show us everything that we need to be working on. i'll be able to get some pics tomorrow and if i'm not able to get any then lindsey is definitely getting some and emailing them to us. she's bringing her underwater camera. i stay out of view for the most part, but i know today that sarah kate jumped in the water, held her breath correctly, kicked, and went under. she's loving it! doesn't hurt that she gets a lollipop at the end of the lesson! she can't wait to get to me when her lesson is over so i can get that wrapper off for her. she had never had a lollipop before these lessons.


you'd think sk would grow tired of eating bbq chicken at every meal....we had so many left overs from her party! but she certainly cleared her plate today. who can blame her?? hometeam bbq is the best there is!


so that's how my girl spent her day in piggy tails. even wore her tails to her lesson and was so excited when her teacher commented on them! she fluffed them with her hand and smiled and said, "piggy tails!" she's a mess. oh, AND, she gave her daddy a makeover tonight....complete with a good hair brushing from her princess brush, a roller in his hair and "lipstick". she told him that he was a princess. beau got a princess makeover too. must be very interesting to be a father of a little girl. before men become fathers i do not think they sit around daydreaming about the day when their child finally makes them over into a beautiful princess. trey plays along beautifully and is a great sport! beau on the other hand........that's a different story.
