Snow White Outfit


This is one of the outfits I made for Pooh Bear. The skirt is actually a skort. The yellow ruffle is a pair of yellow shorts. I made the Snow White with my monograming machine. I think it turned out pretty cute I will tweak it a little next time, but over all I was happy with it.

My Hubby


This is my sweet husband...He is also the man who has taken care of the girls so I can lay in the bed and rest. Since my surgery Thursday he has taken great care of me and the girls. He has kept them busy playing and let me rest. I have not had to worry about them once. He has been great! I sure do love this guy, even after almost ten years of marriage. Even more importantly I still like him too! I am sure once I get better I will owe him BIG!

Sweet and Sassy


Sarah's party was at Sweet and Sassy and the girls loved it.

Jonas Brothers Guitar Cake

My sister in law called me a couple of weeks ago and asked if I had any ideas for a Jonas Brothers cake. This is the best I could do but I think she liked it.

Your not going to believe this!!

She fell Tuesday and broke her Left arm! It is a buckle fracture and thank goodness she does not have to have a cast. I don't know what I am going to do with her. I asked the doctor all kinds of questions and he just said it was two very bad accidents close together. But needless to say I am going to make her start eating and drinking more calcium!

Another School Year Over

Sugar Bear with her teacher!


She had an end of the year program yesterday. She was suppose to sing several songs but she ended up just standing there looking pretty. The only song she sang was I'm bringing home a baby bumble bee.

Yeah! No Cast



Sugar Bear got her cast off today and her pins out. She was such a Big Girl! She didn't cry much, the nurse said she did better than a lot of teenagers he deals with. I was very proud of her. So now we are in a sling for 2 weeks.


Pooh Bear got this cute card from her teacher today at school.

Day of Recital

Here are pictures of the recital. Pooh Bear did a great job I was very proud of her. She was doing great and right at the end she shuffle stepped and came right out of her shoe. But she did great and just kept going.



This is the end of the dance (sorry I got the pictures backwards)
She went all the way to the end. I was afraid she was going to be so upset and crying by the time I got to her backstage . I ran all the way to the dressing room but when I got there she was coloring and the first thing she said was mommy did you see my shoe come off and started laughing. I told her I did see but that she did just what she was suppose to do and I was very proud of her. Needless to say I was not planning on buying a video but after that happened I just had to.


This is her after she lost her shoe. You can tell her smile kind of went away but she kept dancing.



This is the beginning with both shoes


The really funny thing about all of it is her tap shoes were to small for her. At rehearsal the day before she had blisters on her toes. I actually debated on buying her new bigger shoes Friday afternoon because I felt so bad about them being so small. Oh well go figure.

Before the Recital

The Whole Pineapple Princess Crew back stage before the Recital!


Oh, mom please leave me alone, okay maybe one more picture!


I put so much hair spray on her hair I was sure the curl would stay but I was wrong. By the time we got to the Bjcc it was already falling. I am going to have to figure out a better way to roll it next time!

Whew...

Today has already been a busy day and it is not over. We got up early this morning and fixed Pooh Bear's hair and make-up for her dress rehearsal and the off to school for a Mom's day breakfast. Here are some of the pictures from today.



Pooh Bear with her teacher!


She made me a cute cup, 2 flower pictures and made a picture of me. It was very cute. She sang to me and served me breakfast. I enjoyed every minute of it! I can't believe how old she is getting next stop Kindergarten where I am sure to be a total crying mess!

New Cast

She went today and they cut off the old cast and bent her arm more at a 90 degree angle and put a new cast on. She was so brave she did not cry or get upset even once. The doctor said she was healing well and that the pins should come out in 2 weeks.

We got our Crayon!


We have been waiting on this Crayon. They give these to all the kids in the neighborhood who are starting Kindergarten. My Brother got one when we was little and now Pooh Bear has hers and hopefully Sugar Bear will get one in a couple of years.


This is her invitation to the Kindergarten kick off party!

Ball Park



Pooh Bear is doing so good at Softball she hits the ball every time the coach pitches it and she is starting to run for the ball. She used to stand there and play in the dirt but now she kind of pays attention and runs for it when it comes near her. I am so proud of her and enjoying being at the ball park again.

Check out her new strap


So if you have read my blog you know that I use sewing as my therapy. This time is no different. If you look at the picture below Sugar Bear has this big white padded neck brace she has to wear for the next 4 weeks. Well yesterday she fought me all day about wearing it so during her nap I made her a new one. I put padding in it but it is a lot thinner and I used ribbon for the strap and I cut the metal clasp of the white one we got from the hospital. She is wearing this new one much better. I think I might try and make one more. Because this one could be adjusted a little and I think I can do a better job on the next one.

Hospital Stay



Before the surgery she was a real trooper. She was smiling and laughing and telling everyone she broke her arm. They gave her "giggle gas" and she was feeling great! She went back no problems.

After the surgery she was a different child. She was mean and mad. She tried to pull out her iv and she tried to pull off her heart monitor and her cast. She did not want to lay down, sit down, stand up or be held it was like she just wanted out of her skin. She was so tired but she would NOT go to sleep. *Side Note: Please excuse the way I look I was thriving on about 4 hours sleep and had rubbed all my makeup off and didn't have time that morning to fix my hair.

Pooh Bear came up and saw her little sister and brought her a fox and my brother brought her a turtle. They made her a little happier. By the end of the day she had doughnuts, a cookie bouquet, a box of ring pops, a build a bear cat complete with cast and a pink poodle all brought to her from friends and family!


Daddy Bear, Pooh Bear, Paw Paw, Mimi, my brother and I put her in the wagon and rode her around the hospital. That seemed to make her a little happier but she was still a pistol ball. After they left we settled in for a long night of crying and tossing and turning.

We are at home now and she is better but still a little ill. Hopefully she will be a lot better after a good nights sleep in her own bed. The really bad thing is I have to keep her off all playgrounds for the next 2 to 4 weeks until the pins are out. How do you do that with a 2 1/2 year old?

I also sent Rice Krispies Treats in a bag with yellow M & M's and tied it off with a yellow bow.

And God


The reason I named this And God was because I asked Pooh Bear to name all the kids in her class when she was done Sugar Bear looked at me and said and God. Then she pointed to the painting on the wall in the background.
