Oh the joys..

of the words of a toddler. Well technically I think once she turns four years old in 7 weeks (eek) then she is now a preschooler? Oh my, where oh where did the time go!

I keep meaning to write down all the funny things she says, I know I could make good money writing that book! Like the famous "I don't need my hair mommy" Walt Disney World spinning Minnie incident! hilarious!

So lately she has been adding "in the whole wide world" to the end of a lot of her sentences. This last week, I have been the best mommy in the whole wide world, which I already knew ;) Dinner (curly noodles with pasta sauce) has been the yummiest dinner in the whole wide world. She's easily pleased at least when it comes to dinner choices.

Tonight's made me laugh out loud literally. While in the basement playroom I heard Isis trying to eat the plastic that hangs outside the mechanical room hallway, from Adam's winter project now on hold, since well... it's not winter. I politely (ha!) yelled at the kitty to stop eating the plastic. Jocelyn followed me up with "Yeah Isis, stop that. Bad kitty, bad Isis. You are the baddest kitty in the whole wide world!" LOL I am laughing now just typing this! That girl cracks me up!

Two pictures from our trip "up north" (it's a Minnesota thing I guess?) to Adam's cousins wedding at a lakeside resort.

I promise myself, i will try to write more here weekly and then actually give people the website address!

A glimpse into the future...

Yesterday we ate the last of the mini cheesecakes Grandma Tschakert made for Jocelyn. She found out that Jocelyn likes cheesecake and had to make her some. So after we were done with our treat I asked Jocelyn if she would like to call grandma and thank her for the cheesecakes, she said yes.

She proceeded to lay on the couch, both on her tummy and her back talking with grandma. It made me flash forward to 10+ years from now when she is a teenager!

Picture Day!

Today after I pick her up from daycare, Jocelyn and I are heading to the Mall of America to get some pictures taken. They have a photo session scheduled for us at our favorite children's clothing store, Janie and Jack.

I told her this morning when she woke up and she screamed "Daddy we're going to get my picture taken today!!!" I love how excited she got!

I hope to try and sneak some pictures I take with her on the backdrop and dressed up, on my iphone. I have heard that after the free 8x10 we get, the prices are outrageous, so we might only get that one. :)

Juvenile Arthritis March ~ 2010

On Saturday March 6th we participated in the annual Juvenile Arthritis March at the Mall of America. Jocelyn had a great time. Thanks to some fabulous friends and family members she raised $485!!! Topping last years amount of $240.

Here are a few pictures of her at JAM having a great time!

She's not a Twins fan but Daddy wanted a picture of her with the Twins Bear

Action Shot of her walking during the March!

Enjoying her muffin after the March!

Valentine's Day with Jocelyn

Yesterday was Valentine's Day, and Jocelyn woke up to some cards, and a bit of candy for the day. Adam also bought her a little Hello Kitty stuffed animal with some jelly beans and she loved it! Hello Kitty spent the rest of the day hanging out with Jocelyn around the house! She also got a gift card to Chuck E Cheese from grandpa Al in the mail, she was excited. We will have to plan a day to take her there soon!

Adam and I exchanged cards and a bit of candy and then went out to dinner. It was a nice, relaxing and quiet Valentine's Day which is A-OK with me!

Here is a picture from yesterday. My girl, she hearts me. ♥

And of course one with Hello Kitty!

Hello

This is a new adventure for me so once I get time I will start on our family blog!

Thanks
