Box!

Flower Power is growing like a weed....haha pun intended;o) That means she is outgrowing her clothes! And there is A LOT of them!!! So I need to pack them away. This brings me to The Box.
Notice anything ODD about the box????


Let me give you a few more views of The Box.

They say you don't need to buy toys when you have a box....maybe they're right;)
Just a Boy and a Box!

Airhockey!

Sorry I've been a bad blogger lately! It's been busy busy with all the birthdays and the family coming and going. Hopefully with school right around the corner, I'll be blessed with more time....ie..blogging :)

Airhockey is Little Lion's newest obsession! He wants to play it whenever he sees a table and it's on his Christmas list! He's actually pretty good at it. He usually wins. Here he is playing with his cousin A.

IFly Indoor Skydiving

As I stated in my last post...It's my birthday, It's my birthday, I'm going to party like it's my birthday!! We went to IFly Indoor Skydiving here in Otown. It was so much fun and a thrill to skydive (in a safe, non jumping out of a plane falling to your death way:) A, Mr.E and I along with my Mom and the kids got to the place and we watched the group in front of us. It was a little scary seeing these people floating above the ground, but everyone came out happy after and no one was hurt, so I knew I'd survive:)

We left Mom and the kids in the observation room as we went to our instruction class. And by class, I mean a 5 minute video on hand signals and proper body position.
Our instructor came back and we got geared up. Don't hate how beautiful we are :)
We thought we'd have a little fun and practice while we were waiting to head down to the wind tunnel.

Here we are anxiously awaiting our flights.
Here is Mr.E on his first flight. You can see that he is higher than the instructor.
I was next. I did really good and went to the top by myself. This just happens to be a picture of me down low, but I was looking at the camera;)
My niece A was next. She was a little nervous, but did fine.
For the second flight, you got to fly by yourself for a bit and then the instruction attached himself to you. The two of you did tricks...up and down and spins. VERY FUN!!! This is the instructor and me.
At the end you get your certificate and we got the DVD which I'll post later once we upload it to the computer.
This may be one of the coolest touristy things I've done in Orlando!! I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting! It's a bit pricey, but if you have an entertainment book there is a buy one, get one free coupon. Gotta love a deal;)

Happy Birthday to MEEEEE!!!!!!

I'm finally 29....again:) Today is the day that my wonderful mother birthed an 8lb 3oz baby girl (same as LL's weight). In honor of my birthday and Mr.E's which was Friday and my niece A whose bday is Saturday (August is the birthday month in my family!!), we are going INDOOR SKYDIVING!!! I'll post pictures and hopefully video soon! I'm excited since this is the only skydiving I'll be doing;)

Finally!

When I was pregnant with Flower Power, Mr.E and I painted the family room wall. I think they call that nesting;) Well after that work, I was too tired to decorate and then FP was born which took up all my time and of course Little Lion needed attention too! So our wall was bare until this week. It only took 10 months to get something on our wall!

Shopping

You know I love to shop! Is it bad that I'm teaching Flower Power???


I don't think so :) Shopping is a girl's best friend!!

8 Months!

8 Months seems so old! Little Flower Power is getting to be such a big girl all too quickly!!! She loves to play with her toys and rolls all over. However, she'd prefer to walk!
FP continues to sleep through the night and now naps in her crib instead of Mommy;O) She babbles constantly and usually says DADADADADADA! I say Mamma, she says Dada. Flower Power waves back when waved to and can say hey. She has recently started clapping to music. One of her new tricks is standing on the couch and bouncing. I see a future cheerleader :)
I know I say this monthly, but really, watching your children grow is the best possible gift! Can't wait for the next month to come!
