I hate to brag…

-

(kind of), but I have to brag on Marielle. I cannot believe this just happened, but I swear it’s true. She ate lunch, and afterwards she was requesting “too-kies”, which means cookies, of course. I usually tell her how many she can have, and count them out as I put them in front of her. Today, I said “ok Marielle, you can have 3 cookies. 1…2…3".” and I am not lying when I tell you this, she said, “4…………5” NO LIE!!! What??? She’s not even 2 yet!! I have had so much trouble getting her to count at all, she won’t hardly repeat “1, 2, 3”. I had no idea she even knew what came after 3!!!

And then I quickly realized just why I quit work to stay home. Because even though Aliza’s first tooth popped out yesterday (yay!) and I am having trouble keeping her happy (because all she wants to do all day is crawl on top of me - 6-4 at home 0306-4 at home 031 ), I got to hear Marielle say “4, 5” (unprompted!).

Louisiana "Snow" day and Fried Green Tomato BLT's

We were supposed to be on a plane to Copper Mountain today, but mother nature had other plans for the Gary's this Mardi Gras. We had our trip all ready, clothes borrowed and packed up, and the dog was taken care of. Then a blizzard started to make its way across the south. Our flights kept getting changed, then canceled. Instead of losing days of our vacation trying to make it there, we postponed the entire week to Easter week. So, we are now stuck at home on a very cold, snowy/rainy day. I felt a little nostalgic and got out my camera for some non-work photography! I hadn't used my camera just for fun in a while and need to get it and myself out of work-mode. Here is what it looks like outside today! Marielle and I went out there together so she could jump on the trampoline while it was full of ice!  I took some more a few hours later. Ice on the surfaces is getting thick! Aliza made a tiktok slicing all the icicles off all the surfaces.  Before the freeze, Jon brought in all...

Marielle and her Nanny Ally

-
A few weeks ago, Marielle spent the night at my sisters house (her Nanny Ally). This video is from breakfast the morning after the sleepover. I have watched it over and over and I cannot stop laughing. It is 1:18 long, but if you have the time, it’s hilarious!! We gotta say Father Son! from kasey gary on Vimeo . Can you tell we say grace before every meal? and after the prayer she hears Allison’s dog, Sammy, bark outside and she gets a little scared. Priceless!! Nanny Ally was recording her at the perfect time!! Enjoy!
