top ten tuesday



1.)One of Ruby's favorite things to do these days is walk around in Princess high heels. If she wants them on, she will hand them to you and say, "shoe, shoe." She walks pretty well in them, too.
2.)Reyna informed us yesterday that Bobo's name has changed to Cuzilla (Cuh-Zilla). Her last name is now Bobo or as Reyna puts it, her second name. She has corrected me several times already when I do not call her by the correct name.
3.)I found the girls reading together again this evening while I was picking up the house. Thank goodness for a camera that is usually sitting on the shelf to capture moments like these.
4.)I am getting ready to steam clean the carpets thru the house. I still haven't figured out what I am going to do when they are done. I guess just go to my room...the only room in the house with hard wood. The rest of the house will need to dry. I sure as heck do not want to hang out in the kitchen!
5.)I got my hair cut today. It felt soooo good to go sans the girls, get my hair cut, chit chat with my hair dresser & stop at the store before heading to my mom's to hang out for the afternoon.
6.)At dinner, Reyna showed me how she can chew a hole thru the middle of a cucumber without breaking the circle shape. When I asked her where she learned this, she informed me Nana taught her how to do this. Uhm mom, care to comment??? :) I am guessing this wasn't where.
7.)Reyna threw a fit tonight at dinner when her banana broke apart. She was so upset, she asked me tape it back together. When I asked her if she was going to eat the tape, in between sobs she managed to answer, "yes."
8.)When you tell Ruby, "I love you" she will now respond saying, "I love you, too." It.melts.my.heart. It comes out like, "Eye u too."
9.)I don't know about the rest of you, but I cannot stand a dirty car. This time of year is the worst. It was a decent day here, so the girls & I pulled thru the car wash on the way to my mom & dad's this morning. Later in the afternoon, I went and vaccumed it out and went back to my mom's and soaked the floor mats. It feels so much better to be driving a clean car!
10.)My name is Leslie and I am addicted to Gobstoppers.

Leslie they are just too cute! Isn't it so fun to watch them play and interact now? (when they are getting a long that is!) I love this about my guys now :)

PS....saw your FB posts about your Grandmother and just wanted to let you know I'll be saying a prayer for her and all of you that love her!

The fact that Nana taught her how to eat through the cucumber totally cracks me up. LOVE it!
And, I desperately need a haircut. Especially one that doesn't involve a child tugging on my shirt the whole time.

I seriously had to do a double-take of the shot with the girls reading because topless, long-haired Ruby? That could have been B.riar without even trying! I am currently growing my hair out (again), and am now remembering one of the reasons why I liked it short - more frequent haircuts! This every 3-months thing stinks!
