Some Pics and Three Proud Moments

You know, I forgot to show off Carly's other fun clothes we got at TWGT in Fort Worth...Mommy's a big fan of madras. Please pardon the shot of mermaid drah's...I love the expression on her face!

And in case anyone was wondering what Carly will look like when she's seven...well, when she's incredibly excited at seven.
Enjoying some balicious banilla milk at STBX while we were waiting for 'Miss Achele' (our realtor, Michele).

Daddy was doing a great job of not being distracted by Carly's laughing.

And here, everyone, is the kitchen of the house I wanted to buy. Literally the ONLY thing I don't love about this house is the tile on the kitchen countertops, but my Daddy will just make me some new ones (because I'm a spoiled princess like that)...seriously. Open floor plan, HUGE enormous windows everywhere, island, recessed lighting (as you can see), vaulted ceilings in the master, bonus room for toy storage, extra storage closet in the garage, whirlpool in the master bath, an actual back yard, covered patio...hi, perfect house. They're not finished with it yet, which is why there are no appliances in this photo. But for the square footage for something like 20K below our max...I won't get started.

My nesting instinct has kicked in for real, and I'm like some crazy little bird running around trying to gather up sticks to build a nest but I don't have a branch to build on. It's really very sad. Let's all take a moment to feel sorry for me. (Did you notice the crown moulding?)

Moving on:

These are my three proud moments of Carly today.

1) While we were in another house, Carly said she had to go to the bathroom and then said she didn't. We continued to look through the house, until we discovered she was missing. We found her in the hallway bathroom, concentrating, if you know what I mean...unfortunately for us, this is a brand new house with no water. So Daddy was on cleanup duty and Mommy took the poor baby out into the fenced (thank HEAVEN) backyard to be like a bear in the woods. Poor sweet little baby was just doing what she knew to do.

2) We went to TJ's Ribs for a yummy and very large dinner and Carly ordered chicken strips with spinach. The waiter just sort of raised his eyebrows, and she really took like three bites of it, but still.

3) And our waiter's name was Adam. He wrote it on the table cloth and Carly asked me what it said. I told her, and she said, "OHHHH, that is like Adam-n-Eve in the garden with the snake HISSSS and Adam-n-Eve is not good listeners so they have to wear "leafs" on them then the water goes SPLASH and it smash up the bad guys like a squishy bug SMASH (she slammed her fist on the table) like that. Yeah."
