A Girl and A Boy...

It's official, we have entered the CRAZY boy crazy world! My 4 going on 12 year old daughter has her first crush and I as her mother am not sure how I feel about this. Part of me is so excited, part of me is horrified that my almost 5 year old daughter has a crush, and part of me is at a total loss as to what to say, think, or do. Let me give you a sample of recent conversations;
Me: How do you want to do your hair today? Do you want a pony tail?

Kaylin: Yes, cause then Johnathan will think I am pretty!

Another day getting ready for school,
Me: Why don't you wear this shirt? (a shirt with a collar on it)

kaylin: No, I can't wear this shirt, Johnathan won't know me in this shirt, he won't like me in it.

We have actually had the shirt conversation more than once, in fact at least once a week. We have had it so much that Daddy is having a conversation tonight about girls who dress to impress boys and being independent and unique, that should be good.
This morning Kaylin informed me she was going to marry Johnathan at recess because and I quote " he's cute and he thinks I'm pretty and we are going to get married." AGHH, what is a mother to think, to say, to do!! I silently laugh and cry all at the same time. The icing on the cake was a conversation between Me, kaylin, and Chloe on the way to school this morning, and you guessed it, it was about Our favorite little boy.
Kaylin: Chloe, I'm going to marry Johnathan at recess today.

Chloe: No, I'm going to marry Johnathan today!

kaylin: We can both marry him because he is cute and he thinks, we are both pretty!

Me: You girls are both too young to be marrying any one!!

Kaylin: (whispering) My mom is so crazy!

Me: You are DEFINITELY too young to say I am crazy, you can't say that until you are a teenager.

At thins point I am laughing so hard on the inside because she sounds like a teenager saying I am crazy. The sad thing is there will be a day when she really will think I am crazy and these conversations will be for real. For now it so cute seeing here pretend to be so sophisticated and mature; talking about boys and her crazy mom.

Pretty Princesses

Halloween is such a fun time to dress up and getting candy on end. It is also the best night in the whole year for seeing princesses and super heroes every where you look, my girls were no exception. I had a Tinker Bell and a Butterfly Fairy; they were simply adorable!! At Kaylin's school they had a carnival, Festival 31, it was huge, so crowded, but the girls had fun. They played games, jumped in bounce houses, and ate yummy hot dogs.

Here they are, Tinker Bell and the Butterfly Fairy!
Alyssa was a little speed racer on the track, could she reach the pedals, NO, did that slow her down, NO!!

"What do I want to eat real fast while no one is looking, no a sucker will not be fast enough, I will get caught" By Alyssa

FUN, FUN, FUN, the games were so much fun.

Stefan and I also had fun with the dressing up thing. His friend Ryan had a costume party and we went as talking mimes because there is no way either of us could commit to true mime
silence, it would have killed us both.

Aren't we the best looking mimes you have ever seen? I gotta say this was totally Stefan's idea and it was so much fun. We had fun getting ready and freaking people out on the way in the car, you should have seen the looks we got, it was great!

True love needs no words! Se we are good mimes!
