Hailey Time

It’s really sweet that she came down here and wanted to sit on my lap and “write” as she calls it. Probably shouldn’t have let her use the permanent markers, but oh well, it’ll come off. :-)

She pointed at the markers and said, “I want allllll of them.” So, I gave her two. “No, allll of them.” So, I gave her all of them. “More” she said. “I don’t have more.” I replied. “Ok”

It was funny to watch her go nuts with the markers though it made me a little nervous. She wanted me to draw her hands. Then she wanted me to do her feet. She pulled her little house shoes off and contorted her legs to get her feet up on the desk so I could trace them. That “tickies” is what she said.

No good luck?

Every year, we take part in the tradition of black eyed peas on New Year’s Day. Last year was Michelle’s first time to have them and according to her and judging from the trials of 2008, we won’t be taking part in the tradition again. :-)

I went to the store to get eggs and just browsed down the aisle to maybe get a can for me, but they were all out!! :-(

No Black Eyed Peas??

Maybe these will work too
