City of Bones

I don't really remember what books I read last month and what ones I read at the beginning of this month, so I'll just report on what I've read recently...starting with City of Bones.
My totally awesome brother-in-law, Daniel, recommended this book to me and I really liked it. I will relay what he said to me...read it! I promise you won't be disappointed. I'm waiting for someone to return the second book (City of Ashes) in the series so I can borrow it from the library.

I also read the third book in the Fablehaven series-it was just as good as the first and second books! I'm excited to read the forth one...I just got it from amazon on Tuesday.

I'm in the middle of all these series and it is sometimes hard to keep them all straight, but I am really loving all this reading I am doing. I'll be finishing another book tonight-book 4 of the Percy Jackson series.

Please, keep bringing on good book suggestions all you friends out there!

The number 2

Today's post is brought to you by the number two. Yesterday was Miss Halli's number two birthday. I heard her two little feet running into my room yesterday morning to wake up up at 6:15. The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes were her two big beautiful eyes staring into mine. I laid her into bed next to me and thought of the past two years with her in our lives. She is one crazy lady, but we sure love having her in our family.

In honor of her big day here are "Halli's top 2's"

2 things we did for Halli's Birthday1. Crowned Halli princess for the day
2. Ate a delicious fondant cake made by Lindsey (my sister) and I(Tiffani)

2 things Halli said today
1. What the....heck
2. Oh cute (said after she saw a picture of herself)

2 times Halli made ma laugh today
1. When she bit into her birthday cake after we sang to her (I guess that was actually yesterday-oh well)
2. when she said what the....heck

2 things I remember when she was born
1. Her pink pink skin (Carson was really yellow)
2. having her sleep on my chest-I love snuggly babies and she TOTALLY was...what happened?

2 things we love about Halli
1. I LOVE that she loves shoes...a girl just like her mom
2. She loves us

PS...My photos were loading, and then they stopped. So as of now I only have 2 photos-fitting I guess.

Hoping for a Prince

Yesterday we went into downtown Wichita to do some shopping and while we were there we found a cool little cove of bronze statues. There were probably 10 separate statues, some small water fountains coming up from the ground, and then a little water wall thing where there was a small frog statue. We let the kids play for a little while then Carson had to go to the bathroom. Ryan took Carson away and I took Halli over to see the water wall. She walked over with me, found the little frog, and walked right up and kissed it. I don't know why she did it...I guess hoping for a cute little boy to play with. Luckily I had my camera in my purse so I made her do it again and snapped a shot.Here are a few other photosAnd here is my AC project from last week #22. I've heard of diaper cakes, and my friend was having a baby shower so I thought I would try one out. It was easy to do, and something I'll probably do again next week because I have another friend having a baby shower. Tis the season for babies around here!
