Britney Spears' Love Child?

Last Saturday,Gabe was supposed to go to a classmate's first birthay party. After spending four hours in the pouring rain on Friday, Mom got sick and forgot to call Karli's mom to say we wouldn't be making it after all. Karli sent Gabe a goody bag, and he found a bag of Cheeto's. He loved them.

Somehow, I deleted the picture with one cheeto in each hand and one in the mouth. My question is, can you believe that I have already allowed this child to have junk food? I, the mother who would not let her oldest child have sugar until she was one, allowed cheeto's! I am now as redneck as Britney Spears and will soon be allowing Gabe to swill Coca-cola from a bottle.

This is what Gabe does when he is allowed access to the bookshelves that aren't his. At least he picks history books.

Gabe is going to looooove Halloween!

This is how I look after eating a full lunch of brocolli, carrots, and pumpkin. Mom gives me a special treat like a half of a blueberry donut. I think I enjoy them more than most people.

This is how I feel after the sugar rush hits me.

My costume for Halloween. I am absolutely cute and adorable and know it.

Hopefully, I will learn to walk and growl like a real lion before the big day.

crocs for a cause

Mabry's school has a new civic project. One of the classes is having a crocs drive. Since most of us own a pair or two, I thought you might like the opportunity to participate. Crocs will recycle old pairs of their shoes to create new crocs that they give to people in third world nations. Grenada Elementary School is also accepting off-brand crocs that will be recycled into new shoes and given to various charities within the US. If you have some old crocs or croc like shoes and would like to help, send a comment with your e-mail or facebook for me to contact you with an address to send them to. I think we have until Thanksgiving to collect as many shoes as possible. Also, Mabry is an official Brownie!!! Prepare to buy LOTS and LOTS of cookies. No is NOT an acceptable answer.
