Opening Gifts: From Daddy...

 Cie-J bought a junior excavation kit where she could dig for dinosaur bones!  
They both loved doing this together!

 Once they get out all the bones, they will get to glue them together.  They discovered it's a T-Rex!!
 Cie-J also got her a spring loaded Obi-Wan light saber.  She was thrilled!!

Monkey Monday:

I have been SO tired....but I will try to update more this week.

Today, my baby girl turns the big 5!!!

She amazes us every day with her questions and wonder for the world around her.  She sees the beauty in things that I would just pass by on a daily basis.  She loves to talk to people and complement them and make them smile.  She is a gift from God and we thank Him daily for letting us be her parents.

Bike Time:

This past week, it was unseasonably cool here (mid 90's), so we spent a lot of our time out side!  It was really nice. (Side note, you know you live in the desert when you think mid 90s is nice-HA!)  Little Miss Priss rode her bike in style.  Several neighbors stopped and made a comment about how adorable she was in her dress.  She had the best time!

We Made Slime:


Mix equal parts Elmer's glue and liquid starch.  It doesn't stick to the table or floors and it stays wet for a long time!  Next time, I will color it with powdered jello or kool-aid.  Thanks for sending us the idea Mamaw!

Rainy Day:

"Mom, can I get my umbrella and camping chair and sit out in the rain?"

SURE!
She ended up going in to get a blanket because she claims she was cold.  HAHA.  It was in the high 80's but that's a good 30 degrees cooler than normal.  She stayed out and watched the rain for a good hour!  She just loves her umbrella and rarely gets to use it.  First we were in the dry lands of West Texas and now we literally live in the desert. =)
