Park Play Time

I always load them in backwards... Here is Cyprus cold and done!
This photo reminds me of those guess what pictures.  The ground is shredded tire.

Cyprus has wild hair... like her mamma did.



Gotta love shoulder rides!

Cyprus likes to be the baby... but not for long!!

IT'S A GIRL!!!My friend with young baby came over and I pulled this out.  Cyprus decided she wanted to be like the baby.   Well, I am pregnant with baby number 2!  It is a girl.  I am so excited to have 2 girls.  Isaac was even more excited than I was!  He loves his Cyprus Girl!  I will probably have her in the beginning of August... that will make them 2 years 10 months apart.  Cyprus loves babies, so I hope I can give her lots of attention and let her do lots of helping out.

Hide & Seek

Feb 2, 2009  WHERE'S CYPRUS?I was working in the kitchen (getting lunch or dinner ready or something).  I had been washing laundry all morning and it was piling up on the couch.  

I heard Cyprus yell, "Hey Mamma!  Come here."  

I replied, "where are you?"  

Cy: "In the living room.  Come here and find me."

I went into the living room... I couldn't find Cyprus for the life of me.  Then she laughed and I noticed the little hand poking out of the laundry pile.  She buried HERSELF in the laundry with no help and no previous experience with anything like that!  We laughed and laughed.  I had to stuff her back in and take a photo.  So smart and creative! 

Isaac's Workout

It always helps to add a little extra weight.   Cyprus loves riding on Daddy's back when he does his push-ups.  I can do push-ups...not with Cyprus on my back though:)

Remember POPPLES?

(February) Cyprus loves Party Popple.

This is my popple from when I was young.  I loved it then... Cyprus really gets a kick out of the ball form.

Seal/Dog/Scary Mask

(January) Cyprus got this book with pop up animals and a mask for a seagull, shark, sea turtle, and a seal.  Cyprus will put on the seal mask and chase me growling and I run away screaming.  She loves it.  I think she looks more like a strange breed of dog in it.  I can't stop laughing when she has it on.  

Yummy!!!

Ok, so I have actually made one of these.  No more plain Caramel Apple...  You dip the yummy crispy green apple in caramel, let it cool a minute, then roll it in crushed Snickers bars, then drizzle (or cover:) with melted milk chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate.  Oh, it is so good.  By the way, you can't just bite into it.  Use a knife.  Once you cut into it, you have to eat the whole thing so the apple doesn't get all brown (not that it is really difficult to finish one.  They rock.  Try it, let me know if you get hooked!
