Earning her Keep

The giveaway is almost over- win a $50 giftcard!

Well, it's time Avery start to earn her keep. We've decided she can earn a few toys a month by becoming a professional back scratcher. She's pretty good and daddy gives her all the practice she'd like. She gets so tickled doing this.

I don't know what my problem is. Apparently, I forgot my camera at Mark's graduation too. I am so proud of this college graduate. He worked so hard and graduated w/ honors! He is pursuing an MBA and his bachelors degree is in Economics.

Good food, good times

Win a $50 gift card - Click here!

These days, it's challenging to bring Avery to a restaurant, especially a fancy one. I've decided the much easier option is for one person to stay behind w/ her. Less stress on everyone! I stayed behind one night on vacation and Charlie did on another. We went to the Half Shell Oyster House in Gulfport and it was DE-LICIOUS! Although I am not an oyster eater, that ribeye sandwhich was right up my alley! YUM!

Cupcakes

Win a $50 giftcard - to anywhere you'd like - go see my giveaway! Click Here!

Have I mentioned that I have a child who lovvves a good cupcake. Last weekend, she went to see Nonna and Poppa for a few days. Nonna asked her if she needed a new toy and she replied "Uh huh!" (That's Southern for yes). Nonna asked what kind of toy she needed and she said "A cupcake. A pink cupcake!" This is typical. The child loves her cupcakes. And after having cupcakes from Frosting and Curl's...who can blame her? I am really trying not to use this as a tool for bribery, but with our potty training mishaps lately, it is a challenge.


"Where my cupcake go, mama?"

Sick Lil Sweetie

We have a sick little princess. She's had a stomach virus since early Monday morning and I'll spare you all the details, but her fever hit 104 last night on the digital thermometer. We got it down, but the doctor wanted to see her. He said that she should be admitted so we are at the hospital. After a few hours on an IV, she's asking for a pink cupcake (which is a huge deal, considering she has eaten 1/2 a cracker since Sunday night! I anticipate we'll be heading home tomorrow after the blood work checks out. I have some posts scheduled and will talk to y'all in a few days. As Beth says, we covet your prayers!
