We're still here!

Sorry for the lack of updates.  Apparently I have people waiting on pins and needles to find out what we do on a daily basis.  Things have been pretty uneventventful.  Except for the event of the frog in the basement. 

My mom was cleaning some some stuff up in the storage room, and she saw this frog.  She thought it was fake.  It wasn't.  She called Lauren down to put a bucket over it because I would obviously never go near that thing.  Lauren put a bucket over it and we weighed it down until someone could come home and transport it outside.  This thing was HUGE.  It had to have come in through the sump pump or something (which has since been covered with duct tape).   When Nick came home we made him move it outside with a cookie sheet.  I was planning on taking lots of pictures but this is the only one I have because it JUMPED AT ME and I screamed and scared poor Elise to death.   It looks small in the picture but I bet it weighed 3 pounds.  Okay almost.

Elise LOVES her animal train.  This her is animal train face.  It's fascinating.


We also have a "yay no more cancer!" Disney Cruise planned for this summer.  We didn't want her to be scared of the characters so we are prepping her with this Christmas Mickey.  She was scared at first but now she loves it.

She thinks she is fancy when she sits on her little bench.

We met Grandpa & Grandma & Great Grandpa & Grandma for dinner tonight for their 60th anniversary.   Elise was very excited and entertained everyone the whole time.  She likes to show off a little.  And she had on red glitter shoes.

  1. A Disney Cruise! How fun!! Elise will love it. We took Mia to Disney when she was 15 mints and she had a blast. She loved the characters like Mickey, but not the "people" characters like Mary Poppins. To her they were just strangers in funny clothes. We also watched a lot of Mickey Mouse clubhouse to get her acquainted before the trip.

    I'm glad to gear you're in great spirits, minus the frog incident. Ew!!

  2. Did you react more strongly than you did about the "incident" at Stacy's in Nashville?! What happened to that cutie's nose and forehead?

  3. LOL it was probably the same reaction, although I didn't have a chair to jump on top of.

    Poor Elise smashed her face into the driveway when she was running too fast last Monday. I haven't been allowed to take pictures since then because it happened on Grandma's watch and she felt too bad. She's fine.
