Interview With A Kennadee

This was on my friend Becky's blog so I thought I would see what kind of answers I could get from Kennadee:

1. What does mommy always 

say to you? "look at me I'm gonna take your picture"
2. What makes mommy happy? "A Balance Time" (I think she means a Valentine)
3. What makes mommy sad? "Hitting makes you sad"
4. How does mommy make you laugh? "Smiling"
5. How old is mommy? "You're 3 like me"
6. What does mommy like to do? "Whatever you want to do"
7. What is mommy’s job? "I don't know"
8. What is mommy’s favorite food? "Busghetti sauce"

9. What is mommy’s favorite color? "Pink" (pink is actually Kennadee's favorite color)
10. How do you know mommy loves you? "I don't know"

EEK!!!

I know we have all had the experience where we lift up a pile of clothes or towels and a spider comes running out and scares the crap out of us right? Well yesterday I was getting ready to get in the shower and noticed Kennadee's towel was on the floor so I picked it up and out ran a little LIZARD!!!! EEK!! I screamed and it ran after me!! So I ran to the kitchen and grabbed a glass and came back in and put the glass over it so it couldn't run away. Then I hurried and threw some clothes on and grabbed a piece of paper and slid it under the cup. ( I accidently cut off the end of it's tail- oops) I then ran it outside and threw it in the bushes. I debated on taking a picture but I just wanted to get it out of my house!! It was a cute little lizard but it is not okay for it to be in my house!! Here is a picture of what it looked like. Only it was a baby so it was really tiny:

Library Post

So some of you have said that the video in the Library Woes post is not working. I have now reposted it so it should work. Check it out it is hilarious. And if it still doesn't work if ya'll will let me know I would appreciate it!!

Memories

This was on my friend Elaine's blog and I thought it would be fun:

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember! 

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty cool (and funny) to see the responses. 

Library Woes

Yesterday Russell and I were going to take Kennadee to the library (one of her favorite places in the world next to Chuck E. Cheese's of course!) Anyway Russell and I were puttering around the house getting ready and it was just too much for Kennadee to have to wait for us. She kept asking if it was time to go and we would say in a minute in a minute. Finally she had had enough and decided that she had waited long enough. 

" Mommy" she said " You are taking too long. I want to go to the library so I am just going to go by myself"

"How are you going to get there?" I asked " The library is far far away" 

" I will walk" She said

"That is too long of a walk. You will get very tired" I said

"Well then I will drive myself." she said " I am going to find the keys right now" 

After that I decided that I would turn on the camera and let her go. I had to film in two sections so when the first gets bright and white stop it and click on the second one:

Kennadee looks like me!!

I found this on my friend Marissa's blog and had to try it!!! It was really fun!!

* Our Fun Filled 4th Of July *

This is going to be a long post so be prepared!! We start out with getting ready for the day. We all got matching T-shirts from Wal-Mart and I did Kennadee's Hair all cute doesn't she look great? 

 

Well she had woken up a little shaky that morning and I was a little worried but didn't think much of it and off we went. We stopped to get some lunch and then were on our way again. While we were driving Kennadee was saying that she was thirsty so I gave her some water. She only took one sip so I encouraged her to drink more. She refused and I looked back and she was suddenly very pale. She said " Mom I need to puke in the potty" I said " Are you going to puke"? She said "no" and as she said that she puked all over herself. I didn't have any clean clothes for her in the car. (Despite twice thinking I should bring some and telling myself why should I? she never really gets herself messy anymore). Luckily we were by a T.J. Max so I ran in and bought her a new outfit. (because it was only 1.00 more for the outfit than it would have been for their cheapest T-shirt) When I came back out of the store she was doing much better so I put the new shirt on her and we went on our way. 

We went to downtown Austin to see what was going on down there. We had a reservation for a boat tour to watch the fireworks but that didn't start until 8:00 so we had plenty of time to kill. We found this park nearby so we went to check it out. Downtown Austin really cool they have a lot of really interesting buildings. 

The weather wasn't too bad so we walked around for awhile.

Once we were all too hot we decided to go to Wal-Mart to cool off. While we were there I got Kennadee another shirt so she would match us and then it was time to go to the boat. We boarded early so we could get good seats. Kennadee was so good. She was walking around talking to everyone. She made friends really fast. Their was a couple up at the front that had a big bag of kettle corn and they were sharing with her. She totally loved it. 

Also while we were waiting we saw a little turtle trying to climb up onto the dock and we saw some ducks that after awhile started quacking at us and splashing us.

This is what the boat we were on looked like:

Under the bridge lives about a million bats that come out at dusk so we got to see them all swarming out while we were on the water

And then once it got dark enough the fireworks started. It was really cool!! I loved the way the fireworks reflected off the water. I totally recommend this to everyone!! This was an awesome experience and the best 4th of July I've had in a long time!! The symphony was playing in the park on the shore so we could hear the music while we watched the fireworks. It was awesome. I got the finale on video so enjoy!!

I hope you all had an awesome 4th of July!!
