Happy Ftaher's Day Joel!

Okay, I don't have much time, but I HAD to post this! Joel and I have a video monitor for Mikayla, and I was sitting here blogstalking while she napped. Well, she woke up a few minutes ago and for a while she was just sitting there talking to herself. Then I hear her giggle so I turn on the monitor to see what she's laughing at. Well...she had taken her blankie and wrapped her stuffed doggie in it and was giving it the biggest hug ever, just giggling and giving it loves! It was seriously the cutest thing! I love these mommy moments!!

So Much Fun!!

Do you remember the time when you could just sit and have an actual, uninterupted conversation with friends? When you could just go to the movies whenever you felt like it and eating out wasn't an aerobics class? Well, Joel and I have friend's who are still in that phase of their marriage (not for long!!). I feel so incredibly lucky that they are still willing to hang out with us, even tho I can't seem to do the simplest of things- like finish a sentence- before I have to go chase after Mikayla. We got to spend Saturday evening with them and Mikayla had a blast! We went to the San Tan mall and she got to play in the splash pad. She was scared of all the other children at first, but got into it soon enough.

I swear, I don't keep her locked up in the basement all day...we do go out and she lOvES the park. It just so happens that one of her parents is albino and the other is a polar bear.

Then if that wasn't enough fun for one little girl to have, Monday for part of our family night we went to Target and we finally got her her own toot toot!! (for all of you that don't speak "Mikayla" that means car...or really anything with wheels). She was so excited she couldn't even wait for us to get it out of the box before climbing on!

The box said it was good up to 3yrs old...but she already looks too big! We tried to take off the green thing, but she wasn't having any of that and threw a fit. It also has an attachment that goes on the back so we can push her along when we go on walks (that would have been nice a couple of months ago..hmm..oh-well)
