big bowls are for popcorn

Pepper threw up on tuesday night... so naturally we placed a big bowl next to her bed incase the vommiting re-occured. We told her the bowl was to throw up in. She disagreed, she said it was for popcorn. She then began asking for popcorn. I was able to talk her into a saltine cracker instead and then put her back to bed. The next morning she came out of her room with the bowl (empty thank goodness) and asked for popcorn. So I got her some. Next time she is sick I am bringing up a box instead of a bowl.

Uh-Oh Snow!


Whenever Pepper glances out the window and sees snow she says "Uh Oh Snow". I feel much the same way. I usually try to avoid the combination of snow with my kids, but this morning we ventured out into it. Pepper is finally old enough to do something with the snow besides eat it. We made snowballs and went sledding.

I'm A Barbie Girl!

Pepper is a barbie girl, in a barbie world. And she can stay in that world for an hour or two at a time. She sets the table, gives the baby a bath, drives around the jeep, has little conversations and puts them to bed. I wish I had that sort of an imagination. Both of my sisters did. I was not so easily entertained. Although, on occasion they would let me know their barbies were going to have a party, so I would decorate. I even remember cutting a piece of paper into confetti for Skippers birthday. Anyway... Pepper takes after her aunts. And now Tabor and I have some one on one time (which I would have to do whether I wanted to or not in order to distract him from destroying Peppers little world, but I do enjoy reading/playing with him).

Happy Valentines Day!

Pepper telling Tabor to smell a flower.
Pepper teaching Tabor how to high five.

Pepper hugging Tabor.

I was going to make a cute Valentine card for all of the Grandma's. But as you can see, I am not a photographer. My poor kids, I can't do thier "adorableness" justice. And Peppers hair quickly went from curls to "bed head". But I thought I would post a few of them anyway.
I thought this song would be appropriet for Valentines Day.
