Pumpkin time--but a princess doesn't touch the guts!

It was a pretty quiet weekend. The temps were in the 30's and we even had some snow flurries. So Saturday we did some cleaning and just plaid games. You will notice in some of the pics I post that Abby is pretty unkept compared to her norm. But we let her stay in pajamas most of the day. We carved pumpkins to add to the painted ones she had done the week prior. Of course Miss Priss would not touch the pumpkin guts. We have yet to get her to touch them. Every year we try but she just won't do it. Then Sunday I took her to Culver's for their Halloween party. She had a lot of fun there.
Now tomorrow is Monday again. It is red ribbon week for Abby. She is freaking out about it because when we explained what it was for she is now paranoid that drugs are going to get her. Cripes! She even freaked when I took my prescription meds! I can only imagine how she will handle this week! I just can't get over how overly sensitive she is. Well I better get done and get to bed! 5:3o comes too quick!

My Life with a Princess

Well yet another busy weekend gone by! Friday we went and bought Abby new shoes. She is finally in a size 10. Eventually we will get out of the toddler shoes and into the "cool" shoes. Saturday I ran to a couple garage sales in the morning and then did some housework. Then we headed over to Abby's girl scouts pinning. She is officially a girl scout! We then went to Walmart for groceries and then out for dinner, which Abby did not even eat one bite! UGH! I swear it is a waste of money to buy her a meal. Sunday we went to John's sister, Rhonda for a family turkey dinner. YUMMMMMMMMM! That was about it. I can't believe tomorrow is Monday already! Abby has parent - teacher conferences at 5:20 tomorrow. Hopefully all goes well. (crossing my fingers!)

I ALMOST FORGOT!

5 years ago tomorrow, Oct 8th, is when we brought Abby home from the NICU! I can hardly believe it has been 5 years! We plan on taking her out to a movie tomorrow. We always do a little celebration with just the 3 of us each year.

5 years ago...

catching up!

I have been so bad at this!

Ok what has been going on....
Abby loves kindergarten. We have parent teacher conferences on the 16th. I am so nervous! Most of the stuff she brings home she was doing 2 years ago! So I hope she is not getting to bored. She does love the sign language and spanish. She is constantly showing us new signs she has learned. She also keeps telling us we need to talk to her in sign language. I think we better take a class!

Wednesday I fell and hurt my ankle. I went to the DR and they took some xrays and said it looked like a severe sprain. So they put me in a air cast brace. VERY UNCOMFORTABLE! Then we got a call today saying the radiologist reviewed my x rays and actually found a small fracture. OH GREAT! So now I need to be extra careful and keep the brace on for a longer period of time.

Today I bought my first item on QVC! I finally bought a new camera. I have been wanting a new one for quite some time but when I saw the deal on QVC I couldn't resist. I can hardly wait to get it. Now to avoid late night QVC shopping! I am already an Ebay addict! LOL

Abby's school had family night a last friday so we all went to the pumpkin patch. It was a lot of fun. I will attach some pics.


















Next Saturday she has her pinning at girl scouts. She is really enjoying girl scouts and her best friend Jacy joined her troop so that even made it better.

Daddy and Abby have fallen asleep together in our bed so I better get Abby carried off to bed. I will try to get better at this and post more often!
