I am a blog reader of many (as you may know from the side panel of Blogs I am Obsessed with), and have lately become fasinated with McMamma's life:) She is giving away a few HP touch screen computers and since our computer decided to go kuput last night after a skype session with Grandma & Grandpa D, I thought it was a perfect time to enter the contest. One of the ways to be in the drawing to win is to link the giveaway on my blog. So, any of my readers feel free to enter the contest, but remember it's me who you will send the gift to when you win:) Just kidding!

Golden Crisp
Uh Oh...
Here comes trouble...

You are quite the little stinker pie at times. You like to test the boundaries, especially with me. For some odd reason you will listen and respect daddy but when it comes to your momma, you melt down. For instance, you pick up momma's hair pick and are walking around the house. Daddy says "uh oh thats dangerous" and takes it out of your hand replacing it with a different item that is yours. Your reaction is a little pouty face but you move on about your business. I do the same thing and you melt down completely, like I just slapped you across the face. You stand at my feet and throw a fit until I pick you up. (that is if I do) I have tried a variety of techniques in regards to working through this. It's a work in progress. At first I was really sad and emotional about it thinking that I was a horrible mother. In talking with other moms, similar stories have surfaced. Its all about training. I'm a bit envious that your dad can simply look at you when you are into something your not supposed to be, and you mind him. I, on the other hand, am going to have to work harder at getting you to listen to me:) I know that I have years and years of learning and growing with you and I wouldn't change it for anything...I love you to pies stinker pie.
Love,
Mother in Training:)

Thxsgiving Extravaganza
You and your dad rode with Dad's cousin Grant to Nebraska last Tuesday (the week of Thanksgiving). I stayed behind to work and then headed up after work on Thanksgiving night. You visited family and friends the entire week with your dad. So many things to be thankful for in our lives, not only on Thanksgiving day but everyday:)
Here are just a few to mention...
