Mornin' ya'll! I finally have some alone time for the first time in ages! I just dropped 'Taye off at school, mom has Angela and his grandparents have Bradley so we can go to an appt. later today, when I got out of the truck it was like ooh yess I'm alone so the first thing on my agenda was blogging! lol I do love my babies and yes, Greg too, but omg when you never get 5 minutes alone you just want to go hog-wild rofl Without all the hustle and bustle this morning of getting 4 of us ready while I was brushing 'Taye's hair I noticed just how long it's gotten! It's maybe 2 inches or so from her waist!!!! I couldn't believe it! now if we could just get my hair to grow like that! mine just refuses to grow at all, except my bangs so I always remind myself of a sheepdog lol
Not alot has been going on here lately.. I've got Ya-Ya here to watch but haven't got to it yet lol we watched Murder by numbers yesterday, well I watched he snored lol, it was pretty good but bless my silly soul I can't remember who did what rofl

Thank you bushels & bunches everyone for all the sweet comments for 'Taye! I let her read all of them and she was queen of the hill let me tell ya! She goes running to Greg telling him all about it, and even told some of the teachers about them too lol
Ya'll helped boost her up so much that yesterday she informed the car-duty teacher that he needed to say her name right 'cause he was getting on her nerves rofl it was a hoot! He's been pronouncing it "shawn"taye, well she complained to me and then I noticed and it bugged me (major pet-peeve name mispronunciations). Yesterday she hopped out of the truck and gives him a look lol and says,"Mr. Wakefield, my name is "shhh ann taye" not shawn!" I giggled half the way home at the look on her face lol
I'm off to try and make all my visits before Greg gets home and interrupts me :)
Have a wonderful day ladies!

Hey There Aretha,

The Devine Secrets is an awesome movie. It was a rainy day so I grabbed a pillow and a blanket cuddled with bre and went to sleep :o)

Ohhh it ticks me off when someone pronouces Breanna's name wrong. Its spelt like Bre then anna (because I fell asleep and Jason filled out everything after I had her)anywhoo her name is actually pronouced Briana with the ahhh in there LOL.

Now that I have turned this into a book have a great day!

I'm so glad 'Taye feels better about herself! She sounds like one wonderful, special girl! We all need some positive reinforcement sometimes.

Hi Aretha!

I'm glad that 'Taye boosted by the comments we all left. We all know what it feels like to get excited about something and be let down, but it's even harder for a kid!

Girl, I can identify with you so much! I go nuts when I get 5 minutes to myself too. LOL Right now Jackson's still sleeping and Blake's at school, so I'm taking full advantage of this time to Blog hop! *Ü*

My pet peeve is name mispronunciations too! I HATE it when people call me "Aundrea". Ok, if my name was that, I'd spell it with an "Au" or an "O"! Or this one... "Andreya".... HELLO? Is there a "Y" in there? That's how they pronounced my name when I graduated from high school. I about died!
