The Big 3

Happy Birthday Miss Skylee Bug!!
I cant believe that its been three years, I guess time flies when your having fun!
This whole weekend we have pretty much celebrated her birthday, which I think is okay since I like to do the same for my birthday.
Friday night we talked Josh into letting her open a couple of her gifts from us. She got a camera that she loves! (I will post pictures that she took), clothes (not so fun), activity center, crayons, markers.
Saturday was her big party (thank you for everyone that came!) She had her cousins, friends, grandparents, great- grandparents, uncles and aunts. She got a lot of neat things, John Deere tractor which was a hit with all her boy friends (thank you uncle Cody), Tinkerbell scooter, and Tinkerbell sleeping bag, Sand and water activity set, more tractors and cute clothes. The kiddos had an Easter Egg hunt that lasted all but 10 seconds. They are quick at finding eggs!



Below are the pics that Skylee took with her camera

Spring

Wow it has been awhile since I have posted something! So here we go.....
Josh decided that Skylee needed a goat.(thanks Chad and Kelli) So we are proud owners of a little female goat named "Lighting Mcqueen" after the movie CARS. I tried to get Skylee to name her something like "Sweetie" but no, it was either "Mater or Lighting Mcqueen". And Josh's motive of getting a goat is to practice roping. So now he will quit heeling me as I walk.
Less then two weeks will be Skylee bugs 3rd birthday!!! And drum roll please.... Skylee has gone 5 days in the potty!!! She just decided one day that she was going to be a "big girl" and has gone potty ever since.
And I have been busy trying to train for this damn half marathon. I starting to think that this is a little crazy. When I'm 8 miles into this and my knees and legs are killing me. I keep thinking why am I doing this? So I have month till race day.
Here are some recent pics of Sky having a picnic outside, helping me cook, her goat and helping me plant our garden!

Psychic Reading

I know this sounds crazy but I had animal communicator come to my home and give me a reading on my animals. What an experience!
Rusy thought that he was the protector of the family and watches over us and that he is good with kids. He also thinks Tank gets away with too many things. Which is true. I thought this was interesting but the animal physic told us are animals mirror us. And so Rusty said that he was sore in his knee and shoulder but he was not going to complain about because he was tuff. If anyone know Josh that is how he acts! And Josh has pain in his knee's and shoulders. Crazy.
Gator was a happy easy going dog and he said that he had sharp teeth!! Not much of a talker but he is just happy.
Tank thinks he is the baby of the family and he very kind hearted.
Thumbs the cat thinks he is AWESOME and likes to catch birds and he thinks he is better then the dogs. Which is true and he always catching birds.
Stumpy thinks I'm to complicated that's why we don't connect. But he loves Josh and likes to work as a team. He also thinks Josh acts like a monkey because he is so athletic. Again that's true. And Stumpy wants us to have peacock because they are funny. What a weird horse
Flicka loves me and we work together so well. She thinks we look a like and we are pretty. And she likes to look pretty and flashy and wants blingy tack. ( Is that my horse or what!!) She said that she will take care of Sky when she is ready to ride. But don't put Sky on Stumpy. Flicka is very kind hearted and likes children and babies.
And Skylee my little psychic.. She told the communicator that she will have Flicka later down the road and I will be getting a light colored or white horse. This is weird but Sky keeps telling her grandma that she is going to ride a white horse. We never knew what she was talking about. But now we do. This is horse is going to amazing at whatever it does. So I'm trying to think of a white High Brow Cat ;). Also Sky is going to be amazing rider and wants to be fancy.
Flicka said Rooster has left his body and his happy. And that she is my favorite now.
Anyways what an experience. I loved every minute of it!!

Spring Fever

So we have spring fever in a bad way!! Sky has been sick for a couple of days and that has kept in the house and we are going crazy. So with the weather being somewhat nice. We took advantage of it and headed outside.
I cannot believe in a couple of months Sky is going to be turning the big 3!! Wow time flies. She is growing up so fast and is becoming so BOSSY!! I guess that's what you get when your the only kid.

Christmas!!

So I have been a little slow about blogging lately. I have been busy. So here is a little re-cap of the holidays.
It seemed like every weekend we had a christmas party or something to do.
Skylee for x-mas was spoiled like every year. All she wanted from Santa was watercolors and was so excited that she got them. She also got a cute little horse from my parents and a dump truck from her other grandparents.
Josh and I have been busy playing the Wii. I got the Wii Fit and it has alot of fun games to play on.
So for mine and Skylee's new year resolution is to get her potty trained. So wish us luck we might be home for a couple of days!!
Anyways wishing everyone a great and prosperous 2010!!

Oh Christmas Tree

So I found this cute little tree today and Sky was so excited to put in her room. She picked the color out all by herself and decorated by herself.And as you can tell she put all the ornaments on one branch. She loved it and was so excited to show her dad when he got home from work. She is funny kid!
