Daddy Daughter Dance

This Friday Gabby and Michael went to Gabby's first dance. The Daddy Daughter Dance was put on by the Girl Scouts. I ran Escape Artist while Michael took Gabby on a "date" and then to the dance. Gabby got all dolled up and Daddy wore a tie because Gabby insisted. They went to Gabby's favorite restaurant, Texas Roadhouse, and then they headed to the dance. They had a lot of fun. Michael said they danced, and ate, and Gabby even led a cha-cha line for a while. Gabby knows how to party and her and Daddy enjoyed the night of fun. The good news is, I managed to keep the business open and it ran smoothly thanks to the employees until I got to hand it back over to Michael a few hours after opening. Gabby is already for next year's dance. I am so glad that she has the chance so young to learn how a lady should be treated. Gabby is so lucky to have an amazing Daddy who lives for her.

Those curls!

Thanksgiving 2013

Thanksgiving Day we all with to Grandma and Papa’s house to enjoy a traditional Cajun dinner and it was delicious. Gigi, Blakeleigh, Brandy, Nanny, Uncle Patrick, Grandma, Papa, Aunt Lisa, Aunt Christine, and Keith were all there to celebrate with us. Gabby enjoyed the day immensely playing with Blakeleigh the entire day and even trying to snuggle with her during her nap time. Gabby made everyone sing "Happy Birthday" to Mommy and she blew out the candles Then Brandy and Blakeleigh spent two nights with us. We had lots of fun going to Mud Pie to make handprint Christmas cookie plates and hanging out at Grandma’s house. Gabby enjoyed very much singing Happy Birthday to Mommy with the family and blowing out my candle. The night of my birthday Gabby spend the night with Grandma and Papa and Nanny, Uncle Patrick, Mommy and Daddy went to the movies together for the first time ever. It was a very fun weekend. T...

Shelbie. Sherbie? Sheldon!

So I caved. We always go to the pet store and look at all of the animals, for at least an hour each week. The day after Christmas we went to the pet store and Gabby said, "Can I have a real cat? Please..." I said no, but for some reason I decided she needed a cat and Michael was on board, so Saturday we did not tell her what we were doing, but we bought all of the stuff for a cat and then went to the pet adoptions. Gabby loves looking at all of the pets and was petting all of the kitties. We played with numerous cats and chose a 9 month old cat that has been in the pet store as long as we have been going there. This cat always seems to perk up and give Gabby attention, so he was the only one I was truly interested in adopting. I didn't want a kitten because they are so rambunctious with sharp kitten claws, not to mention Gabby isn't that gentle and I was afraid she might have loved it to death. We used Gabby's Christmas money from all of...

Halloween & Another Kitty Costume

Halloween this year was a whirlwind. I had plans. Big plans, but life happens and plans change. Gabby had early release on Wednesday and Thursday this week. We had every moment scheduled, but our schedule changed. We were blessed to have Grandma, Grandpa, and Aunt Sharon come for a surprise visit. I wasn't getting much sleep and so I wasn't 100%. Wednesday Gabby spent the day with Mommy visiting with Aunt Sharon and Grandma and Grandpa once out of school. On Thursday, we still managed to spend one day with Aunt Sharon and even take her to the airport after Mommy got off of work. Then we went to Uncle Mark's new apartment and picked up some clothes for him (Gabby is in LOVE and wants to move in immediately). Then the fun began. She got to paint a black cat for Halloween and then got a Gigi's cupcake (eating nothing but the frosting). Somehow she later convinced me to take her to the farmer's market for perusing, then some cartwheels in a...
