Random Pictures & Thots

I finally cleaned out my camera and I discovered some cute pictures that I should have posted from awhile back. My little brother (who is quite a bit taller than me, he is happy to point out) was a gem and gave pony rides. Jaydee thought the pony was great and didn't want to get off.

Ben had been getting pictures of Jaydee & Emmerie so I came over with my camera. I did get one good one but this was just too classic. I think I have one of them on the horse with their fingers in the same spots.

Here is proof that Sam really does like "Q". "Q" is the kitty.


Okay, so I made Jaydee a star chart which she gets a star for staying dry all day, going to bed without fussing and another one for staying in her bed all night. (Every time she gets sick or we travel she thinks she needs to sleep with us and make it a habit...okay she really is just spoiled). Anyways after 6 little stars she gets a little treat (ice cream, etc). I made her a super star chart which when she gets her little stars she will get a super star. 10 super stars would equal the bike that we were thinking of giving her. However she has decided instead of a bike she wants a trampoline, well I kind of ignored her request the first day and then last night I told her about the bike, she began to jump up and down and say "Bike, bike, bike!" Then she stopped turned around and said "No, I need a trampoline because I am a good jumper." (A trampoline is a lot bigger prize than I had planned on). Then later that night she told me that we needed 2 tables. I couldn't figure that out until she explained that our dining room table needs to go outside so she can climb on it to get onto the trampoline. (They climb on a picnic table at Grandma Flake's house).

Another cute Jaydee story. I asked if she wanted to go see Grandma Flake because Ruth had just gotten home from Utah. She said "Grandma Flake, I Jaydee Flake." Who are you mommy? I told her I was "Vandee Flake" and daddy was "Sam Flake". Then she asked who Papa was. I told her Joe Holyoak. Then I told her I was Vandee Holyoak until I married her daddy and changed my name to Vandee Flake, she just cracked up laughing. I am not sure if she got it or not. :)
