i guess it hasn't been that long. it just seems like it because i was doing a new post about everyday for a while. our lives are pretty much back to normal. it actually seems a little boring. we all miss my parents so much. emily and ryan both keep asking where grandma and grandpa chief are. darrel and i decided a few days ago that we are going to take the kids to disney world in a few weeks. i am so excited because i have never been to disney world. we have been to disney land a ton of times (i used to take ryan and em and fly there just for the day), so it will be fun to experience something new. i have been measuring ryan about every other day because i want him to be able to go on all the fun rides. you have to be 40 inches and he is 38 1/2. maybe if i get him some thick soled shoes and really spike his hair he will pass. em is going to go crazy because she is so into princesses and loves rides too. i am sure we will have a great time!
(i am not quite sure why all of this is underlined... hum)
my little guy is such a sweet heart! i just love him so much! the other day he came up to me and said, "mommy i just make your heart so happy." and it's true, he does. every night, for the past week or so, when we get done saying our prayers he asks me "mommy what's amen?" i just kept telling him that's is just the way we close our prayers. so, today i decided to look up the exact definition. after our prayers tonight he asked again and i told him the definition. then he said, "oh, is that spanish mommy?" ever since he started sunbeams, he has had such a hard time going. i usually have to go and sit with him during opening exercises, and he sits in the furthest away chair. yesterday i was expecting the same thing, but he really surprised me. he walked right in the room, and went and sat down right next to his teacher. he didn't even acknowledge me. it made me a little sad that he didn't care about me, but i am SO happy that he went to class so willingly. he is growing up.
WOW LOOK AT MY BELLY!
she will not smile when she doesn't want to, and it's especially true for pictures. i am not sure when this happened, but it must have been in the last week or so, but i can't get em's pony tails to sick up anymore. her hair is just getting too long, and it's too heavy. i guess it's good that's is growing, but i have to say i do miss the upright pony tails (this is not a good picture to use as an example. we had just come in from outside and she had been rolling all over the grass, so her hair is a mess). emily has decided that her favorite thing right now is one of her pajama tops. she has to sleep with it at night, and gets it out of the crib in the morning and takes it everywhere. it cracks me up! she loves to put her hands in sleeves. at least she doesn't take her shirt off at night any more. i did make her a "sleeve" the other day, but she prefers the shirt. it's the funniest thing. we took it with us to the store the other day, and she dropped it and someone said to me, :she dropped her blanket, or whatever it is." i was a little embarrassed, but not as much as i am when she won't keep her shirt on in the store. she is my little singer. she sings.. or at least it's singing to her. all day long. she also dances while she sings. it's the cutest thing. my favorite thing she does right now is she will ask "where go?" and put her wrists together, and her hands out like a v. i have been trying to get a picture of her doing it, but i swear, it's next to impossible! i just love my little emers so much!
o.k. so i have had some extra time on my hands, so i decided to make a new bag. i saw a juicy bag kind of like this a few weeks ago when we were out shopping. i liked the bright colors for a change. i am getting faster at making them. it would be much faster if i would remember to make a pattern as i go, so i don't have to re-figure it out all over again. i guess i saved myself about $200 making this, and i get to have my big "cup holders" and extra long strap to put around the stroller handle. man, i can really be long winded sometimes.......

The bag is so cute! Sorry I didn't comment yesterday, to be honest, I didn't look at blogs last night, cause I was reading! It's a good book, These Is My Words. I think you would like it.
That bag is so cute. You are so talented. That is so funny that Emily is attached to her pajama top. I want to see pictures of her "sleeve".
Amy- you asked what shoes Hannah had on in the water, and I got those $5 fake crocs at Walmart. I really HATE crocs, but I got them so she can go out in the backyard and crawl around on the cement and the dirt and I won't care one bit if they get ruined. Did you know that she is finally walking all over really well now? I love it.
