Last weekend Sky's friend Charlise celebrated her birthday with Sky at the Build a Bear store in Downtown Disney. The girls had a great day together! Afterward we went to Charlise's house for cake and Sky stayed a few extra hours to play. They had lots of fun!

I'm typing this entry from our back patio while sitting at a table for a kitty tea party. There are 8 stuffed kitties here right now and even more in Sky's room. I have a bad feeling that when she grows up, she's going to be one of those ladies who has an ungodly amount of kitties in her house and ends up featured on the local news! Let's hope not. Anyway, in the picture below, Sky has her latest kitty, a Furreal kitty, that really meows, purs, and walks. Yes, she's in kitty heaven. Sky used a Toys r Us gift card from her birthday to purchase this one. The kitty's name is Gem.

Here's a picture of Brad eating a fresh tomato from our friend's garden. That boy sure loves his fruits and vegetables!


This week is VBS (vacation Bible school) at our church. It is an Amazing Race theme and is really fun! We are visiting a different country everyday. I am helping out in Brad's class with the 3 year olds. There are 15 of them! They are high energy and super cute. Sky is also attending and is enjoying herself!
On Monday Sky and I had dentist appointments and I, thankfully, didn't have any cavities. Sky has one small one on the back bottom molar and they asked me if I wanted to wait til next time to fill it or fill it right then. Sky overheard the conversation and started saying that she was going to be sick, etc. You may recall that she had to have a cavity filled last year and she vomitted multiple times (Ken was at that appointment since I had just had Lila). Um, yeah, we'll see you in 6 months! Sky is now highly motivated to brush her teeth!
Finally, I have a funny Sky and Brad story: Yesterday I bought Brad a matchbox race track where 2 cars race each other down a spiral ramp. He LOVES it. This morning Sky and Brad were playing with it and Sky was naming all of the cars as they lined up to race. It went something like this, "Now Gem and Jewel are going to race and next Island Princess and Belle will race". Brad's job was to line them up and push them down the tracks and he didn't seem to mind one bit that his cars were being feminized. Too funny!

It's so sweet that Sky loves her "kitties", what a tender heart she has (and such an imagination!) I wonder if Brad will want to collect Great Danes, Labs or some other big dogs!? He's such a boy! And Lila!!! ??? we'll have to wait a while to see what her special interests will be, but I'm sure it will be full of sweetness! Love to you all....XOXOXOXO

Sky and Charlise look so adorable together! I am sure they had a great time!!
VBS is such a very tiring and busy week!! But a wonderful blessing to plant seeds in their little hearts!
Great that the growing boy loves his veggies!!
Nothing like a cavity to turn kids into good brushers!
