More funnies - Raegan Smith

The other day Raegan's paper from her new school had a note on it from her teacher that just said, " I love her, she cracks me up!" I thought I would share some more funnies from Raegan:

you have to be nice to our team, because they're the boss like us
the shoo fly not kiss peoples
you're mean to me, i want a new mommy (after I made her take a bath)
all my family (stuffed animals) being good and watching the Thunder
good job blue team, you did it!
Payton lives across the street
we have lots of neighbors
I don't want to eat dinner, I want two pieces of chocolate from the fridge because I like chocolate
you can't get me (she loves playing tag)
no not your nanny just my nanny, because she loves me

chatter box

TALK TALK TALK....

I love it when Raegan says:
Give me you!
I love you mommy
I cried for you
I missed you
When you're at your mall and I'm at my mall I miss you
Me and you are the boss
Do you want to do yoga daddy its very good
Don't talk to me when I'm doing yoga
You're funny mom, you like daddy
Yes Jesus loves me
In Heaven? We don't live in Heaven we live in Moore Oklahoma
Dear God please make me better
Why you do that God
I'm not a baby I'm the big sister

I don't like when Raegan says:
Get away from me
Don't talk to me
I don't want you to go to work
Well I never see you anyways
I don't like you, but I still love you
Sorry mom, too bad (this was after she ate all my snocone)
Dominic said what the heck
I'm going to tell daddy on you

Mother's Day 2012

Mother's Day 2012

I'm such a lucky lady and had a wonderful Mother's Day!  It started early on Thursday evening when my knight in shining armour had red roses in a vase waiting for me when I got home. Philip had held a Mother/Son Date Knight at his store that evening and this is why he was dressed like this:

(cute huh)

I had surprised him earlier that day by having Great American Cookie deliver this cookie cake to his store.

having Philip turned 27 on Saturday and after work Raegan and I met him at his store and went and watched a Baylor Baseball game in Norman.  After the game (which wasn't a thriller) we went out to eat at our favorite, Yamato!  Raegan always says she wants to catch a shrimp in her mouth like mommy and daddy at Yamato, but she acted shy and asked for the chef to place in on her plate instead. She loves shrimp though, she ate at least 5 while we were there! 

We went to church Sunday morning which is where we took the picture of the three of us above.  My favorite party of Mother's Day was the handmade cards from Philip and Raegan.  I cried a lot when I read this one and Raegan said, "Mommy whats wrong?"

This was the outside:

And on the inside:

This is to remind you when I have grown so tall, that I was once quite little and my feet were very small.  Soon I will grow and baby days will all be in the past, but you can know my love for you will always always last.

Love, Raegan

And here's a piece from Philip's:

Wow! What a difference 3 years makes.  I couldn't have asked for a better wife and mother of my children.  You are an amazing mother who has sacrificed a lot for our family.  I appreciate you so much and love you more than you could know. I'm excited to be going through this second pregnancy with you.  You are the best wife and mother in the world.  Can't wait to have 2 little rugrats running around with you.

So that may be a surprise for some of you, but yes we are expecting a little one this upcoming November and the three of us are all VERY excited!

I will remain confident in this...

LOVE THIS PART:
"I will remain confident in this
I will see the goodness of the Lord"


Psalm 27:13-14 (NIV)
13 I remain confident of this:
I will see the goodness of the Lord
in the land of the living.

14 Wait for the Lord;
be strong and take heart
and wait for the Lord.

So Proud of my Alma Mater

I know I've been quite the slacker when it comes to the blog, but I just want to share this video to show how proud I am of our Baylor Bears!

Braggin' about my hubby

There's lots of things that I could brag on Philip about including how he always helps me out around the house, takes care of the yard, gets up in the middle of the night to get me water when I'm thirsty, made me a rose garden in our backyard, but the thing I'm most proud of this week is that he had the courage to invite someone to church with us for his first church service EVER.  This is kinda of hard to explain how special this was.  Anyways, I really feel so blessed to have such a wonderful man as my husband! Wish I had a picture of him to share, but he likes to be the one behind the camera, so here's one he took of me and Raegan after tonight's church service.

Raegan turned 3!

Thought I'd share a couple of pictures from Raegan's 3rd birthday party.  Above you can see her two cakes.  Both were made by our talented friend, Jessica.  The one on the left is Boots and the one on the right is Dora.  Raegan is slightly obsessed with the show.  

Both sides of our family made it up for Raegan's party.  Above is a picture of Aunt Jenni and Raegan opening the princess wand that Aunt Jenni got for her. Raegan is wearing her 'fiesta' dress that her GiGi bought for her. 

This is one of my favorite pictures, just because it shows most of the kiddos. They pulled the strings on this Dora pinata until lots of candy and toys fell out.  They put all their goodies in their purple 'backpacks' that I made from purple lunch sacks and this template at http://www.nickjr.com/printables/doras-backpack-map-template.jhtml

March 24th was a beautiful, sunny day and we are so glad so many people came out to celebrate her birthday with us!
