Dancing Machine...

Today we took a shopping day and went to good ole Walmart for groceries. While we were shopping, Bubby made his way down the aisle and saw the display for Vitamin water. There was a TV on top of the display playing the commercial with the lizards dancing to Michael Jackson's Thriller. Bubby got in the middle of the aisle and started dancing away. Everyone was stopping to watch with big smiles on their face. He didn't want to leave the display. He just wanted to dance. I didn't get the best video because he danced several times, but I thought it was too cute and I had to share.

Ladies and Gentlemen...

Ladies and Gentlemen...Lightning McQueen (according to Bubby)!!!!

Back Home Again In Indiana...

Bubby just wanted to listen to "Baby Kiersten", the Carrie Underwood song.

It's Race Day!

It's race day! We're gearing up for the race in the Eisele house (of course, you all know that I could care less!ssshhhhh) Anyway, John is pouting because he didn't get tickets this year so he's wandering around aimlessly with his headphones. Bubby is following him with his headphones...Toodles.

Well, we finally found the Lion King for Bubby. He was in seventh heaven for movie night! He has not stopped singing "Acoomamatada" since. It's too cute... He says, "Acoomamatada for the rest of your days. It's a pobem [problem] fee [free] dilopodee [philsophy]." You have to hear him. This video isn't his best performance, but I thought I'd give you a preview. Needless to say...that's all we sang today. He even sang it for the waitress at "Hunrise" [Sunrise] after Gymboree. American Idol...here comes Bubby!!!

The Rope




Ever have to blow your nose and feel that it was never ending? That's what happened to me to today. It was awful! I won't go into the disgusting details, but I felt like I was pulling a rope out of my nose for 5 minutes...get the picture? Boy, today was a bad day and I'm glad it is over...wouldn't recommend sinus surgery to anyone! On the other hand, it's now week 2...only 5-7 weeks to go!!! Just had to share with my family! ;)

Neighborhood Spy...by accident...

I know... I don't mean to keep bothering you with my blogs. I guess I've just had too much to blog about! Anyway, I had to tell you this story... John put Breydon down for his nap today. I didn't hear the monitor, so I checked to see if it was plugged in... I turned it on only to hear a woman's voice. Then I heard a little girl talking. I thought it must have been the TV. I put it on mute...still hearing the voice. I then thought that maybe John was talking to someone outside and it was just picking it up but it sounded like a woman reading a story about sheep. It then hit me...was I picking up someone reading to their child in our neighborhood? Then it hit me that it was our neighbor, Tammy! She was reading a story to her little girl! I ran into Breydon's room to see if the main monitor was on and it was off! My friend, Deb, came by to visit me today and I told her what had happened. She said that her monitor does that in her neighborhood! If the main monitor is off and the other one is on, it searches for the closest monitor.



After Breydon was up from his nap, I mistakenly left the monitor on and started hearing Tammy again telling her little girl how pretty she was while she was brushing her hair! I couldn't believe it! So, long story short...be careful, Mol!! I can only wonder what they've heard us say or do! Hey, maybe we should get one for Mom and Dad and they can be like the modern day Olivers!



I'll let you know if I hear any good gossip! :)

"Mom, Why Isn't This One Talkin'?"

I just had to share... Breydon ran over to my laptop when he heard Kiersten laughing on the video. First, he started cracking up...laughing with her. Then he started pointing at the other photos on the blog and wanted to know why they weren't "talkin". He was upset that I couldn't make all of the pictures (not videos) "talk" too!

Cousin/Friends Forever!




I was so excited when I found out that Lane and Molly were pregnant. We could not wait until the big day! Now that our precious Kiersten Nicole has come into our lives, it's the photos like these that remind me of how precious life can be and how I longed for these photos. I can only hope that they'll be close and grow up as cousin/friends. Breydon absolutely adores "Baby Kiersten."

Too Cute!

Can my niece be more adorable? Check out this laugh. She knows how to make Aunt Nickie's day!

"Darts"

Breydon asked me what I was doing. I pointed to this blog page. He said, "Mommy, we were at Donalds!" I said, "Yes, we were buddy." Then he pointed to all of the circles on the page and said, "Mommy, what are all of those 'darts'? I no like the darts [dots]." We can't always please...

My Beautiful Niece!




My beautiful niece, Kiersten Nicole Judd, was born on February 5, 2008. Another beautiful redhead in the world! We all adore her. I received this cute picture of her. At first I wanted to cry because she looked so big, then I just laughed. She's too cute in her big girl chair!

It's The Little Things That Mean The Most!




Since having my sinus surgery, I've been in a lot of pain. Breydon (unintentionally) is in the habit of throwing his head back in an instant reaction (hence the black left eye that I have right now!). So, needless to say, I've been paranoid and afraid to be too close. It breaks my heart!

Every Saturday, John and I take Breydon to Gymboree. He absolutely loves his class. I think that he really learns alot and it helps him to be around other children. He hasn't mastered the art of "sharing" just yet, but he's working on it. Last week he gave Saylor, another 2 year old in his class, a car and he looked right at me and said, "Mom, I shared." I was so proud!

Anyway, John had a buddy fly in from NY to play golf today, so I wanted quality "Mommy and me" time. I knew I couldn't take him to Gymboree by myself because I was too afraid of being kicked in the face or of having a flying ball hit me right in the nose. Gymboree is fun, but it can be dangerous for the adults!

I didn't have much money (running low until payday) so I was trying to think of something fun that we could do together. The last time that I took Breydon to the library he loved it. So, I new he'd be thrilled to go to the "Wibary" and "Donalds" while Dad played golf.

When we went to the library, Breydon was in search of the book "Calliou." I asked the librarian where we should begin our search. She took us right to the books and Breydon yells, "Mommy. She found it!" Then he said, "Thank you." I was so proud that he said "thank you" when I didn't have to tell him to do so. He's pretty good about that. We found 5 books and a DVD of Rollie Polie Olie. He then said, "Mom, we go eat jello now?" I said, "No Breydon, we're going to 'Donalds', remember?" He said, "Yes, Mom." The librarian wished me luck in finding jello at Donalds.

We had our usual... Bubby's chicken nuggets with an extra side of apple dippers. He looked so grown up sitting across from me. It broke my heart! We had several conversations regardng anything from where Ronald McDonald lives to why his french fry was hanging or being "lazy." All in all, it was a great date. I truly enjoy these cherished moments with him. I work so much that I live for days like these... Oh, on the way home it finally hit me why he said he wanted jello. Several months ago when he had the flu, we had rented Rollie Polie and he sat our on our bed and ate jello. This kid has the best memory! So, guess what we did when we got home? I just love him!
