A Thursday Night

I haven't had a chance to post this from Wednesday.  Madeline had PINK day at school and decided to take her pink kitty that is named "berkly"....I didn't know it had a name but apparently I was wrong.  I usually take the pictures before we go to school in the mornings but on Wednesday, I just plain forgot and had to take it when we got home.  Please note that I do not send my child to school with stains on her shirt and her hair looking a mess - this happens throughout her fun filled day at Pre-K!  She must of really had fun b/c look at that crazy hair!

Madeline also got a new pair of boots and just LOVES them.  She had to put them on directly after her bath last night....in her words - "I need my fancy cowgirl boots on"

I think she looks great in them...and love to listen to her walk (run) around the house with them on.  They were purchased for her b/c she will be making her miniature donkey showing debut at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo in March.  I CAN"T WAIT to see her out there in the full outfit.  You will have to wait until March 19th to see pictures of that.  We are going to have so much fun!

And my boys are just relaxing watching ESPN while Madeline runs around like a crazy girl.

I wish I could be this calm all the time!

Not sure if you noticed in the first picture Madeline's oh so nude Barbies.  If you didn't, here is a close up.

I am not sure what it is about Barbie clothes that Madeline doesn't like but the minute she gets a new one..it is naked - with clothes never to return to her body!  My mother and I have tried to get her to put new clothes on the Barbies, LEAVE clothes on the Barbies, and play dress up with the Barbies, but is just isn't happening!  So we will, I am afraid, forever have nude crazy hair Barbies in our house.  The funny thing is, one of them has brown hair and that nude Barbie is her "Keathley" Barbie...Madeline loves her Keathley and Aaron....guess we need to get a Ken!

We are heading to Dallas today for a wedding shower for my cousin who is getting married in March....can't wait to see all my family.  Just hoping this record snowfall in Dallas doesn't keep us from it!  Have a great weekend!
