More Bella-isms to brighten your day

A series of self portraits taken one morning...









Bella: "Dad, what does 'merry' mean? Like in 'Merry Christmas'."
Dad: "It means Happy."
Bella: "Oh."

Mom: "How many eggs do you want?"
Bella: "Umm..two and a half."


Bella: "Mom, I don't feel very good."
Mom: "What's wrong, Bella?"
Bella: "I don't know."
Mom: "Well, what do you feel like?"
Bella: "I feel like a jerk."
Mom: "A jerk?"
Bella: "Yeah. I feel like a jerk."

Picture Tag...

This is a fun tag! Open the folder where you keep all your photos. Look at the 3rd folder and post the 3rd picture listed with out cropping or editing. Now explain the picture. i tag: eVeRYoNe!

This is last Christmas ('07)- Bella decorating the tree. She put 95% of the ornaments on the bottom 5% of the tree. she was concentrating so hard and being so careful with each ornament. Some branches had 4-5 ornaments on them. It was absolutely adorable!

umm yeah...they are twins

So at church yesterday, an elderly lady (bless her heart) stopped me in the hall:

Lady:"You certainly have your arms full."

(I was carrying Paislee & Kailia and dropping Bella off at nursery because Levi teaches the teenagers.)

Then she does a double take and says: "They sure look alike. Now are they twins?"

Me: "Ummm...yeah they are twins."

Lady: "Oh! A boy and girl!"

Me: "Ummm...actually two girls."
(note: they both were wearing dresses)


Bless her heart.

thank you complete stranger for rescuing me...

Thank you to the man who rescued me Saturday afternoon. I was on my way to get some Christmas shopping done, turned a corner and my car started sputtering. I hurried and pulled over and got my emergency lights on quickly. Luckily I was mostly out of the way of traffic. As I watched 3 of my neighbors drive on by, I tried to get a hold of someone to go over and watch the girls while Levi came to rescue me. (I had all the car seats). Shane, a father of 3 girls pulled over. Not wanting me to feel uncomfortable or in danger, he pointed out the three girls in his car. I got in with them as he drove me to the gas station. What a nice guy, stopping to help me on a busy Saturday. The last Saturday before Christmas. He not only helped me in my dumb situation, but he also helped give me a little Christmas magic I have been missing out on this year.

Bella-isms

I love to hear kids' interpretation of the world around them. I promised myself as Bella started talking that I would write down all the cute and funny things she says....

"Mom, I want to keep you." (when she wants me to sit down with her and hold her)

"I want to watch Ladies & the trampolines" (Lady & The Tramp)

"Let me tell you a secret....POOP!" (while slapping her knee and laughing hard...hmmm remind you of anyone?)

"Let's have some tea & dob-bis-pips" (dog biscuits)

"Mom, I want to hold this kind." (Referring to one of the twins)

"My yucky coin" (Lucky Coin)



On a side note: Ugly Betty is casting newborn identical twins for one of their episodes featuring the new baby. The weight limit is 10 lbs and under...dangit the twins are 2 pounds too heavy! That would've be so fun to go to New York and have Paislee & Kailia in an episode of Ugly Betty!

you're going to want to eat 'em...

my girls that is....bella is so cute with her little sisters! she bawls whenever she thinks she has hurt them in some way. i love her big tender heart. kailia is always busy busy busy. sweet sweet paislee is just content to be. and my precious levi is out in the garage working his butt off. you hear his air compressor in the background(yes, it's 8pm and he has been up since 7am). wow. i feel like each moment is slipping away faster and faster. i am trying to capture it all so that one day i can look back and remember this little piece of heaven i have here. i love my family. i think i am the luckiest girl in the world.

Cutest 3 month old twins ever!

We got the girls' 3 month pictures taken a while ago and I wanted to post them, because they have to be the cutest little twins you've ever seen! They are now actually 4 months old, but it's taken a while because my laptop cord broke and I am lost without it!

Someone broke into Levi's truck last night and stole a few tools. Why are people so annoying???
