Saturday Top Five Laughs

I'm so glad to see the weekend!!!  Mainly because I get to work on some Holiday/Winter projects, but also because I get to share my funnies for the week!  Enjoy my 2 year old's humor!!  Please read and follow!  I love new followers & I love comments!  Have a wonderful weekend!!!

1.  My husband is on a journey to get in shape and get healthy.  We were all in the living room watching him workout.  Ladybug likes to do the Insanity Workout w/him.  I like to watch.  She is so encouraging to him as she runs around.  "You're almost there, Daddy"!

2.  We are praying together nightly.  Her prayer tonight, "Dear God, thank you for breakfast, play dates & hopscotch".  Um....she has never had a play date that was not family & she doesn't know how to play hopscotch.  Where does she get this stuff from?

3.  My husband left to play golf yesterday morning and didn't say goodbye to me because I was in the shower.  She came into the bathroom when I got out of the shower, with her arms folded and pouting.  When I asked her what was wrong, "Daddy didn't say bye to you before he left!  He didn't even come into the bathroom!"

4.  Teaching your child her anatomy and yours can be dangerous.  She walked into the kitchen with her shirt off, pointed to her nipple and said, "Mommy, this is my breast.  Where is your breast?"  :-/  Maybe she can get a bra for Christmas!

5.  Today we had an argument in the toy store.  She wanted an umbrella that she saw.  It looked like a tug of war.  I was trying to keep my voice down and ask her to please let it go.  She was screaming, "I had it first, it's mine, you need to share!"  OH.....night night didn't come fast enough tonight!

Patience is a virtue

I just had to share a deal I found at the local Hobby Lobby! I have been wanting this decorative pumpkin with an area for initials. I finally went there determined to buy this $30 pumpkin and $2 decal! Well, to my surprise, the Fall items were no longer 50% off, they were 80% off. So, I got the pumpkin and the decal for $6.40!! I love a good deal!!!!  So head to Hobby Lobby and check out all their Fall items, while it's still Fall!

WW: Golf anyone?

She just had to check out her swing at the new Dick's!

Kris Kross?

I'm not sure if any of you are old enough to remember the group Kris Kross from the 90s. Well, this weekend my daughter gave me a blast from the past moment. It was after her nap and we were getting ready to go to the store. She wanted to get herself ready and I was more than happy to let her. When I saw her dressed with her boots on, I was so happy! I looked immediately to see if the boots were on the right feet and they were. Great job, Ladybug! Then, while putting on her jacket......I saw this......

That's right, she had them on backwards.  Gotta love this girl!!
She wanted everyone to see her sparkling boots!!  She just cracks me up!!!

Proverbs 22:6

Proverbs 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it. 

I'm sure I don't have to tell any of you how difficult and rewarding raising a child can be. Along with the everyday challenges of teaching them right from wrong, is teaching them about having a relationship with Christ. I struggled with the best age appropriate way to teach her outside of Sunday school at church.

Well, we took a family outing to Mardel to look for something to aid us in this process. I found it to be a little bit of a challenge because a lot of the books were geared towards children that were older, even though it said they were for "toddlers" or "preschoolers". We were about to leave & then I saw the clearance shelf. I found this book and it appeared to be what we were looking for. The stories are short and they have questions and character building activities to do at the end of each story. Something that I wished it had was little prayers, but we usually incorporate something from the questions at the end of the chapter into our prayers.

This has been such a blessing because it has really been on my heart to help Ladybug build her knowledge and relationship with Christ. She absolutely loves the book and actually wanted to read it tonight for her bedtime story. That really made my heart smile!

She also shared the story of Adam and Eve with me. Her father read it to her this afternoon while I was getting groceries.

Me: What was this story about?
Ladybug: Don't eat the apple said the boy, don't eat the apple said the girl.
Me: Were they supposed to eat the apple?
Ladybug: No! They were not being good listeners.
Me: What do you know about God?
Ladybug: He made everything and he helps people. He is in the Bible and he is older. =)

She has to be the smartest 2 year old I know! I love this little lady!!!

Oh, below is the book that we ended up getting. I absolutely love it! Please leave a friendly comment! Follow and I always try to follow back! Have a wonderful Monday!!!

Saying her prayers.  Love this girl!

Saturday Top 5 Laughs!!

Hello all!  This has been a crazy week and I have not done jack with the blog!  Well, the life of a working mother!!!  Hopefully my quest to be on here more will kick into gear!  Well, as always, please enjoy my post, link up and follow me if you like what you see!

Saturday Top 5 Laughs!!

1.  Ladybug waited too long to take a break from playing to go to the bathroom.  Needless to say she was running, slid on the laundry & had an accident on her daddy's shirt.  =)  I just had to smile to myself on that one.

2.  Ladybug is currently watching Veggie Tales in the backseat.  I just love to hear her sing about loving and helping your neighbor.

3.  Ladybug's new saying, "Hey....what's the big idea"!

4.  Ladybug is working on a book of thankfulness @ school (daycare).  Each day she gets a page sent home to fill the book.  She made a tree yesterday and all the leaves on the tree were her stuffed animals.  But, she did have two leaves that said, Mommy and Daddy.  :-/

5.  Another Ladybug saying, "I can't do anything"!  This is her new thing to say when she is not allowed to do something that she wants to do.
