He sailed the ocean blue in 1492!

Thanks, Christopher Columbus! Today was a holiday for my school district, so I was THRILLED to have some much needed alone time with the Cal girl! Teaching has kept me quite busy over the last 2 months, and I rarely get some good "one on one" time with Ms. Callie; I'm lucky to see her 30 min/day; yes, very sad!

Ms. Callie and I slept in this a.m., then had breakfast, watched T.V., played, snuggled, and washed clothes. After that, we got dressed and headed to Steinmart, Old Navy, and the Mall. Several hours later, one tired baby and exhausted mommy, we headed home to nap, relax, play, cook dinner, and grade papers! Callie, mommy had so much fun with you today...I just love and miss you! Hugs!

Helping me gather the towels to wash~~she was so sweet and a very good helper!

Trying to help me organize my papers!
She was strolling baby, but was bored and was heading for the stairs~~no, no...Jeff, I'm needing that baby gate!!!!!

She loves her pony~~there is a button you have to press for the music to come on, and yes, she knows where the button is and is pressing it now!

Yayayayaya..."ride 'em pony"!!!

Taking a break for some tea!


Now, off to ride the Alphabet Train! She kept me quite busy today! She is a non-stop!

Mexican Food Coma!

We LOVE Mexican food...Jeff, Callie, and I could eat it everyday!!! Last night, we tried a new restaurant by our home, and the food was pretty good. Ms. Callie had chips, queso, salsa, cheese quesadilla, rice and refried beans; yes, on the way home, she was definitely in a Mexican Food Coma! Callie, mommy is sorry she ate Mexican Food everyday while I was pregnant for you..I just couldn't help it! :)

She couldn't move..she just sat in the carseat

Look at her belly!!!! Diet tomorrow..no Mexican until next weekend!

Family Day with C!

Last night, C went to her Mimi and Papa's to spend the night. She had a great time and LOVES spending time with them. She calls for her Papa all the time. Today, Jeff and I met Callie, my mom and dad for lunch in Conroe at a country catfish shack (yummy food), and Callie enjoyed every bite~! Thanks, Mimi and Papa, for watching Callie and for spending the day with us! Hugs and Kisses!

Trying to get into Tootsie's Room...Tootsie's sign says..Dogs have owners, Cats have staff!
Looking in the vase as she "explores"

She was looking out the front door and saying, Papa, Papa, Papa!

Putting her diapers by the front table so I can take to her school tomorrow!

Everything goes on top her head!

snack of choice...milk or water with cheese puffs

Yummy~~more, please?!?

At the catfish shack; she was yawning because she played toooo much at Mimi and Papa's!

Waiting for her food~~she ate hush puppies, cole slaw, green beans, fried catfish and chicken bites with white cream gravy! Not to mention the homemade pancakes, sausage and eggs her Papa made for her this a.m.! PIG!

Pics of Callie from the last 3 weeks!

Wherever Callie plays, Toots is not far behind!

Callie LOVES snacktime!

I'm very behind on my blog; I'm trying to keep up with everything right now...it's been a tough time here in our household, so blogging is last on my list. Here are some pics I've taken of Ms. Callie Nicole over the last 3 weeks..enjoy!

Jeff pouts, Callie pouts!

Callie and her new car!

Best present ever! Papa, this car will do for now, but Callie will want her Mercedes Convertible that you promised her when she turns 15, lol!!!!

All she needs is BUBBLES!!!

Callie LOVES bubbles...she can watch, play, and catch them all day long!
