Party time

So, I know that I am not the Pioneer Woman, but I made her chocolate cake tonight for Patrick's birthday celebration tomorrow.  After our party guests taste this delectable feast, I might be mistaken for the queen of cuisine!!  Burritos, cake, guac., salsa... yummy stuff in store to celebrate the man of the house's 42nd big day.  He was gone on his birthday, so we have had to wait to party it up with our favorite Daddy.  Happy *late-ish* birthday, honey.   You bring so much goodness to our home and family.  I love you. 

What they're saying...

MICHAEL

"Is it time for dinner? Yes or no.

"Are we going to go to Target? Yes or no.

"Will you open the garage for me?"  Yes or no.

I am constantly telling Michael that we are doing something "tomorrow".  So something he says quite often is... "Is today tomorrow?"  or "Is it tomorrow today?"

Meredith

"Ah, no fair!" (whenever another sibling gets something she wants)

"Okay Mommy, I have 2 questions. 

Number 1...

Number 2..."

or

"Mommy, I have 2 things to talk to you about.

Number 1...

Number 2...

Maddie

"Oh yeah, I forgot."

and

"I'm so glad to be home".

Marky

"So, like, you know, like, the other day, like..."

or

"IDK"

I love seeing how different the kids are.  They each have their own way of making me smile and talking with them, listening to them, observing them... these are my favorite things!!!  They are all so special and fun.
