tuesday with tommie

WHAT I’M READING: The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World ....now planning our days while we are there.

WHAT I’M WATCHING: Whatever is on the DVR.... I think there is a Gene Simmons Family Jewels on it. For as crazy as that man seems, he is fairly down to Earth!



WHAT I’M LISTENING TO: Livi sing. Honest to Bob she told me, "I sing so beautiful, I can make a bird pop!" Oh girlie.....you never cease to make me laugh! I am pretty sure she is talking about Fiona in Shrek.

WHAT I’M WEARING: shorts, orangish top that matches my new "Tasmanian Devil Made Me Do It" pedicured toes. I am so not the matchy-matchy girl but the color caught my eye.

WHAT I’M EATING: I had cereal for lunch, does that count? Just drinking the standard diet DP now though.

WHAT I’M ENJOYING: The kids both being in school....whew hoo!!

WHAT I’M SNIFFING: Tonka Bean candle from Partylite....what is a Tonka Bean? I don't imagine it is a little yellow truck shaped bean?? But it does smell good, kind of spicy.

As for a self pic, I decided to take a pic of my toes. I love me some freshly painted toes. I almost wrote: me + pedi'd toes = TLA ....but it wouldn't all fit.

Happy Tuesday, y'all

Snapshot-July 2009

Snapshot of Thirteen Things during the month of July

1) photo of me: taken with my Iphone: just after I got a cut and color. (Yes, I need some lip color. No, I am not driving, just buckled up!)

2) current candle scents: some Partylite candle, kind of spicy flavored

3) what i am currently reading: I did get the new Real Simple in the mail today.

4) newest music i added to my playlist: does a podcast count? I listen to my old radio station from Texas.

5) movies i saw: We took the kids to see G-Force last weekend. Kind of cute, Livi danced most of the way through it!

6) something yummy i made this month: Cilantro lime shrimp with a corn and black bean salsa.

7) the last place i ate out: Chick-fil-A

8.) something that made me cry: recently...when I was late to pick Will up from his first day of kindergarten ....dang early release! (okay this happened in Aug, but I am totally counting it!

9) something that made me laugh: Livi and her 'princess muscles' . (See post below this one)

10) something i looked forward to this month: hanging with the cousins in OH for the fourth of July. In case you have wondered, this is what a sugar high looks like!

11) something i am thankful for: living close enough to drive up to OH for the long weekend.

12) something i want to remember about this month: These gorgeous pink flowers: the first time I saw them, I thought they were fake flowers. They grow on top of these very straight thick green stalks about two feet tall. A lady had some in her yard in a circle around a lamp post. I wondered why on Earth she would put such fake looking flowers in her yard! Then I saw them in my neighbor's yard! They look so fake, but are so gorgeous!

13) a photo i took this month: My baby girl, lips stained red from eating a "rocket pop", and always with a flower in hand.

borrowed from Janet at Fond of Snape who borrowed it from Dawn

Fantabulous Friday

Top "livi"-isms from Thursday:

• 
  
  Her head can just be used for a basketball. (This was after Snow White's head seperated from the body of her little polly pocket one.)


• 
  
  Don't worry. I have special princess muscles. (After I told her the Snow White polly pocket would have to go in the trash since I couldn't get the head back on it.)

We went to get Livi's hair trimmed for school. She starts PreK next week. After posing and admiring herself in the mirror, she said, "Don't you love my hair? It looks 'fantabulous'!

Yes, sweety, it looks 'fantabulous'. I do hope she continues to have this kind of self-confidence.

Once we got outside, she asked, "Aren't you going to take a picture to send to Daddy? I know he would want to see my 'fantabulous' hair." This is the picture we took....

I am sure we will have a 'fantabulous' Friday, wishing you one as well.
