So the last time I was here was in May OMG we are now in July! Ok only because my computer would not download a single picture so now problem fixed and I am back in bloggy business! Like I said where to begin or better where not to begin! May....the month of Mother's Day(really kids day! haha!) we had a wonderful day of Shopping at the Oakes Mall in Thousand Oaks and I did get spoiled with another one of my favorite things....a pretty Red(Johnny keeps thinking it's orange!) COACH bag my kids say after 6 is way more than enough and if I get to have sooo many when and where are theirs! HAHAHA! I told them they are special occasion bags...My oldest said "Well last time it was you were just in the "Mood" bag and the little one said YEAH and you said too before that it's the last one like this in the store kinda bag.....UGGGHH! I need some more excuses! We also had fun and made Jam as our Mother's Day Gifts first time we all made Jam and we had fun we called it our "Jam Session" strawberry jam that is!
Next we celebrated Sluggo's First Birthday! We have a tradition in our family which our Aunt Alice started when the Kids were very little, it started with Haylie I think she had just turned 3 and Aunt Alice brought this plate to us and said this is the Birthday Plate and is only to be used on each one of our birthdays... that day a special plate for a special day! So we have done that ever since and our Sluggo is part of the family so he got to use the special plate on his special day! His Birthday is May 8, 2009 and we are so blessed to have this little pup(haha) Now I laugh because if you have seen Sluggo up close and personal he is well our little BEAST!!! The girls had recently seen Alice in Wonderland and they refer to their "little brother" as the bandasnach(I am only guessing on spelling!) Yes, the Beast in the movie he is about 80 pounds of love he thinks he is a kid LITERALLY! He loves car rides hates when I put him out side LOVES his GIRLS he is so good with them and always wants the girls to give him love! Haylie is more of the boss with Sluggo we learned this pass year really he listens to her better than me! As with them, I give in Haylie stands her ground and if he has been naughty... outside he goes so with her he doesn't mess around! Awwww but if she has been gone overnight at a friends or a trip to her dad's for a long while it's like he fell in love all over again he doesn't just wag his tail his whole body shakes! Kyleigh and Sluggo I can always count and those 2 little ones getting into some kind trouble! They have a game they made up called the Leaf Game.....it was fall and the leaves fell off the trees and Kyleigh and Sluggo were checking them out well they found it to be alot of fun if she hung upside down from the tree holding a leaf and he would "Snatch" it from her! They did this for months no telling how many leaves Sluggo has swallowed because of this! All in all he is the best pup we could of ever asked for he is so loving and sweet and I fear if he ever got lost God forbid we would never see him again because he just loves EVERYONE! He even has Johnny's heart! Happy Birthday Son!
Our next big adventures begin in June and that is Haylie's Graduation but this needs a new page all it's own so stay tuned!
