Little Fashion Miss

Posted by Gwendelynn Brown on Monday, October 10, 2011, In : My Baby Girl 

This girl.  She loves fashion.  She jumps and claps if she opens a gift that contains 'only' clothes.  Fancy socks are a favorite as well.

This particular day, she's chosen a vintage Raggedy Ann & Andy dress, and accessorized with lace stockings. 


Really beautiful lace stockings...ones that I have no memory of her owning.  And upon further inspection, there's something a little odd about those stockings...


Hrmmm.  I'm guessing a few other things may turn up missing from big sister's drawer of c...

A Little Stink

Posted by Gwendelynn Brown on Monday, April 4, 2011, In : My Baby Girl 

The small girly one on the end there. 
I was sitting next to her today at lunch, and I smelled a little something-something.  So I leaned over quietly and said "Do you need to go potty?"
To which she whispered back,
"No.  I just poof-ted"

The kid quote of the day
Brought to you by the pizza that "Looks like Mom when she yells at me."


Tonight, I overheard my boy singing Elvis: 

"You ain't nothin' but a hound dog"

"Just a rockin' all the time."


"You're an avacado onion,
And you ain't no friend of mine."

Sunday Best

Posted by Gwendelynn Brown on Thursday, April 22, 2010, In : My Baby Girl 


My baby girl was wearing a beautiful dress and bonnet last week.  Her sister had worn it when she was 2, and I really wanted a few photos of her.  Isn't she just precious?
 

I will never, ever, ever try to take cute outfit photos after church again...

on the week we start potty training a sleep deprived and recently displaced youngest child.  What was I thinking?

She is normally a very happy and sweet child, I swear.

Well, I guess I shouldn't swear either right after church.  But ...

The Fastest Smooch in the West

Posted by Gwendelynn Brown on Friday, April 16, 2010, In : Funny Kid Stories 


He is worried.
He is concerned.
He is once again in the lightening quick embrace of his sissy. 

"One minute, I'm laying here peacefully...


when a shadow falls across me.


All the sudden, she's here smooching all over me.


It's over as quick as it began, with nothing but the lingering scent of bananas and cheese crackers as proof.


She is too forward and flighty.  I'm just not that kind of guy.



I...I just can't work under these conditions...something MUST be done about these intrusions...


Maa...

The Great Depression

Posted by Gwendelynn Brown on Monday, April 12, 2010, In : Kid Quotes 
Sunday nights are busy around here.  The big kids and the Weatherman do Awana (a church club), and the wee ones and I usually go to the grocery store (if I'm in a very brave mood, and can time it just right)...or we stay home and nap.  Tonight, the planets were in alignment.  We had all had a nap, I had finished feeding the baby, and I had a meal plan and a grocery list made.   So we headed out to the store.  The very happy thing about this is that tomorrow, I can be a pj wearing homebody, an...

Quote of the Day

Posted by Gwendelynn Brown on Friday, April 9, 2010, In : Kid Quotes 

Him: Where's Dad?
Me: Running
Him: From what?

My oldest boy, seen here holding a friend's chicken; this boy is hilarious.  His brain is wired up differently in a delightful way.  And the great thing is, he's not trying to be funny.  When he does try to tell you a joke, well.  Let's just say it's not pretty.  Or funny.  What IS funny is the stuff that just comes tumbling out of his mouth on a daily basis.  His observations, questions and opinions...it's good stuff.

I've been writing down quotes fr...
