Milly Moments

StInkEr BUg!
This little rascal LOVES Rolly Polly's! She is constantly scoping them out, roling them up & showing them to us. She loves to find "A-Bug".

My Silly Milly is quite the creative, curious, cute little terror... Looks can be deceiving!

For example, Milly decided it would be a great idea to just DUMP the whole bag of cheetos out rather than have to reach inside the bag!? WHY?!


The only thing that i can come up with to makes me laugh rather than flip a noodle, is to think of how her mind is just exploring & developing & how creative she will be one day... well, at least that's what I tell myself.

Uh, Oh- WALL ART...


I had to take a picture of this Milly moment. You may not be able to see all the beautiful red crayon circles up the wall, but sure enough, they're there- all the way up the stairway. You may ask yourself... "why wasn't her mother watching her?" Well, I was RIGHT by her, doing the dishes. I could see her out of the corner of my eye, thinking she was sitting so quietly on the stairs. I should have known better. Here she is, attempting to clean up her mess.
After the other 8 crazy messes she made earlier in the week, I had to snap a photo of this one at least, for a little proof! I think the day before, we were getting ready to leave out the door & I found her in her room covered HEAD TO TOE in VASOLINE! Yes, water-repelling petrolium-jelly ALL over her! You can imagine the clean up of that little grease ball. I believe the next day was when she dumped out handfulls of potting soil all over the living room floors, JUST as i finished vacuming the house:)

I honestly can not even get mad at her at times like these. It's almost as if i'm so frustrated that I just laugh.
Sadly, it's the little things that make me more upset?!

Rainy Days

Raindrops keep fallin' on our heads...
Talk about the rainiest June EVER! I actually really loved it. I love the rain, especially when it is still warm like it has been. I love the way the rain seems to make the earth so fresh and clean, and beautifully bright green. And then to top it off is the beautiful rainbows that follow!

This moment brought back SO many wonderful memories of my childhood. I remember those times, splashing in puddles, walking up and down the rainy gutters, barefooted & carefree.
Notice the kids on the other side of the street.
What a wonderful thing!
