thanks hilary (who is private so I didn't link her! but let's be honest: I really don't know how to do all that linking business anyway!!!) for teaching me -- and now YOU -- how to be famous. and thanks to those who thought it was real. really, I am flattered. really.

next:
MAKE IT BIGGER -- and read her "award!" YES!!!!!

so in celebration -- a cute haircut (thanks Nicole!) and a shopping/dinner date with mommy....

which included EAR PIERCING!

isn't Paige looking grown-up? I think so. kinda makes me :(

and her newest trick: falling asleep sitting up!

sometimes it's fun to be famous!

classic Hailey Joey.

we have been working SO HARD on letters/sounds (YES I know she SHOULD know them by now.... but to be honest: she is more into the social scene than the learning scene. she could tell you the life history of each of her classmates. and their parents/siblings names. and what each of them ate for breakfast. you get the point.)

so anyway ... this is what she told me this morning when she was having a hard time remembering "E/e"...

"MY BRAIN IS TAKING A HOT TUB."

Bergen Jo.

you are here. you are healthy and beautiful... so tiny, so sweet and absolutely perfect. we already love you more than we could have ever imagined.

"a" -- "ah" -- "apple"

"b" -- "buh" -- "ball"

......... I throw out "p" ..........

she looks at me with one of those famous Hailey looks and says

"p" -- "puh" -- "PATHETIC"

and the winner is!
