TIC TAC TOE

Where Mimi gets all of her energy, I have no clue. This morning we left the house a little earlier than usual because Mimi was just bouncing away on her bouncy ball all over the house. We headed over to our local McDonald's just so that she could play in the playset and I could drink my sugarfree vanilla ice coffee. We then headed over to the gymanstics where she and Sophie enjoyed a game of tic tac toe before class. Next thing I knew it was time to head for home and school. She is now at Blake's house for an afternoon playdate. Zoe and Braden are there also. I on the other hand is getting some peace and quiet for a little while. It is possible that Blake may come over here this evening as Bailey usually takes a nap in the late afternoon. Who knows???

OUR HECTIC LIFE

I always knew that stay at home had it busy but I just did not realize how busy they have it till I became one. I love it. After the piano lesson and Fred Meyers and Baskin Robbins this morning. We finished off our day with school, baseball practice and a Buddhist study meeting at Ling Ling house. In between baseball and Ling Ling's house, Mimi as usual became hungry again even though she dinner before practice. So we stopped at our local McDonald's. Holy smokes! It seems as if the whole town was there tonight! The local church was having a fund raiser there and McDonald's is donating all of their proceeds for today to our local food bank. While there Mimi saw more of her friends. It seems that no matter where we go in our little town, we see somebody that we know.

CONGRATULATIONS SAMANTHA

We knew that Mimi's California BFF Samantha was going the doctor's office today to have her cast taken off but what we did not know was that while she was having ice cream (in celebration) at Baskin Robbins in California, Mimi and I at the same time were having ice cream at Baskin Robbin up here in Washington.

As I am writing, I too celebrated the day when my arm cast came off (many years ago) with my one and only banana split.

SETTING UP HOUSE

After a while the girls got tired of playing upstairs. They then came downstairs for a snack and Halle asked if she could take two of the chairs to make a tent. Her and Mimi were playing house. Halle was the mom and Mimi the dad. Between the two of them they had 4 babies. Halle says "Being a mom is hard work! Phew!" I then remembered that many years ago our good friend Maggi had given Mimi a small tent. So up it went. The girls had tons of fun setting up house.

SETTING UP HOUSE

TWO GLAMOUR GIRLS

Today was rather gloomy outside so therefore it became "pajama day" at our house. Mimi was getting a little bored so I suggested that she call Halle to which she did and Halle came over to the house with her pj's on as well. The girls had a blast staying in their pj's till it was time for Halle to go home and Mimi to go over to grandma's for a corned beef and cabbage dinner since we missed it last Sunday as we were in Portland, Oregon.

PLUM TUCKERED OUT

We no sooner arrived home when she practically fell into bed.
