Glow-in-the-Dark Mini Ball

As I'm sure you all know, Gabby loves "Mini Ball". So when we found a glow-in-the dark course, we had to take her of course. I just love watching how she plays, it's the best form of entertainmet.

Gabby's Adorable New Bedding Set

This is the bedding collection we just got Gabby this weekend. She has no idea (it will be her birthday present). She has grown so much since we arrived in Tennessee that she won't be able to use her crib any more once we move in early September (and if your already getting a big bed, you might as well get cute bedding to go with it, right?). In the last two months she has gained about 6 pounds and grown almost three inches (which is a lot when you are as tiny as Gabby). I'm so excited about her room (and a little jelous they don't make hedgehog bean bags in my size).

Pool Time

Gabby likes to "change skin color with grandma" at the pool. Which to her means laying out for 5 seconds, tossing all the floats in the pool, jumping in her self, throwing the same toys back out, playing with the innertubes on the deck, and then repeating this all over again. So far this tanning routine hasn't been to successful (which may also be because I use spf 100 suncreen on her).

Rocky Top

Gabby is definitely Tim's kid, not mine. She has no rhythm and she likes Tennessee.

Transformers 2

So I have to thank Emily & Todd for making me borrow their Transformers DVD, otherwise I never would have watched it in the first place. I loved it (as they knew I would), and watched it about 10 times before I returned it. Therefore, I had to go see the new one on opening day at midnight (because everyone knows that's the best time to see a new movie). So I took Torri to go see her very first midnight movie, where she of course had a blast playing cards for over an hour while we waited for the movie to start; and despite what my mother said, she didn't fall asleep half-way through it.

Daddy Day

For "daddy day" Gabby and I made Tim some muffins for breakfast. Then we gave him the card and scrapbook we made him. This year Gabby wanted to make a book about her favorite thing to do with daddy, mini-ball (that's what she calls miniature golf). She also picked out the pink paper she wanted the book to be in.

Girl's Weekend

One of the few things I enjoy about Tennessee is being able to hang out with my girl friends again. We always have fun together, whether we are playing dress-up in Target for 3 hours, going out to eat (when the food is bad), half-way watching movies, learning new games, or breaking and entering (it's okay, Emily's parents don't really mind). No matter what Jennifer, Emily, Karen, & I do, it always ends up being a night full of laughs. It's great to have friends like them (and I don't even mind that they are all so stick thin that they make me look fat)!
