randomness

completely random post with completely random pictures...because that's how my mind is working lately!

1. we're still drinking our protein smoothies--not everyday, but often. they are such a good way to start the day!

2. sometimes feeling overwhelmed by things and wishing we lived an even simpler life with less things.

3. loving our family of three

 4. always glad when i come across a picture of myself that's not terrible! (this was taken by a 4 year old too!)

5. just a funny picture i took of mck at michaels.

6. i keep seeing this outfit on interest & i really like it (maybe with longer shorts!)

7. conversely, i'm wishing it were fall and i could wear something like this:

8. a picture i love of sadie and mckinlee

9. what you can get at whole foods for exactly $20...a whole cored pineapple, a strawberry salad, a block of yummy cheese, some cabbage crunch salad & a small turkey wrap.

10. my exterminator is coming in an hour to get rid of all the sugar ants we have everywhere.

11. this summer is exhausting me...as funny as it sounds, i'm looking forward to a more relaxed year when school starts!

that is all...you may carry on with your life now :)

fun with sadie

a couple of weeks ago, mckinlee and i went to waco to help watch sadie while mike and danielle went to seaside, florida. we had a fun (but exhausting) time! sadie is one of the funniest people i know. she is almost 2.5 but you can carry on a conversation with her just like an adult. she said so many funny things, there was no way i could remember them all. so mck and i started writing down the ones we could remember.

"stop that, mckinwee nieman"

(when mck was sprinkling water on her)

"well, i guess i'll just go the other way."

(when we told her to go the right way down the slide.)

"i miss my family."

(said very matter-of-factly during her bath.)

"are you going to use the boogie extractor?"

(when i told her she had something in her nose.)

"don't say another word!"

(said to poppy when he was talking about a movie nana didn't want to hear about.)

"hooray! the crescent moon is out!"

"i decided i woke up."

(after she woke up.)

"mommy will be so, so upset because she doesn't like feet on the table!"

(when i had my bare feet on the coffee table.)

"secret agent zizi can't see us now!"

(said to mckinlee when i left the bathroom during her bath.)

"mimi, why are you laughing? i'm trying to read my book."

(when mck was laughing as we were blow drying sadie's hair.)

"who's driving this wheel?"

(as nana was driving us around town.)

"mckinwee...swow down."

(as mck was stuffing popcorn in her mouth)

"my mommy and daddy don't wear shoes in the house."

(said the second i walked into the house from being outside.)

there was also the constant "i love you" and "i'm so glad you're here" comments from her too that we just loved!

needless to say...there was not a dull moment for 4 days!

we love her so much and can never imagine the hilarious things that are going to come out of her mouth.
