My Dearest Mikey,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here we are... Two short years after you made your entrance into the world and into my life. My life has not been the same since. You and your sister are my biggest source of joy and my biggest energy drain. You keep me going, you keep me laughing and boy, oh, boy do I love seeing you smile.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I tried and tried for months upon months to get you to say 'mommy.' But you just refused. You called me every name, but mommy. You called me daddy, G.G, Roxy, Popa, Mac, and Gramma before you finally said mommy. But when you did finally say it, my heart grew three sizes that day. I waited and waited and waited for you to finally say it, and you did. I couldn't be more happier.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You are a crazy little boy though, do you know that? You run in circles with your sister around the living room, laughing and giggling and sometimes falling out as soon as you make yourself dizzy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You are a human garbage disposal. I have yet to see you turn down any food. You keep going and going and going. It seems like you never stop. Unless, of course you are asleep. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And you are such a good little brother. You are always looking out for your big sister, giving her hugs and kisses every night before you go to bed.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will always love you and I will always be in your corner. I will promise you that I will always listen to you and I will always be someone that you can count on. I will do whatever I can to make your life better for you as long as there is air in my lungs and my heart still beats.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy Birthday Baby Boy!<br />
<br />
Love Always,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
My Sweet, Loving, and Wonderful baby girl. You are turning four today.<br />
<br />
Four fantastic years old!<br />
<br />
I am not sure how that is even possible.<br />
<br />
I thought that you were never going to come along. But you finally decided to make your grand appearance.<br />
<br />
And the waiting was so worth it. You are the baby that we were meant to have.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Days old...</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I thought that I knew what it would be like to be a mother.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I thought that I knew what it meant to love.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Then, you arrived and taught me that, in fact, I knew very little.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img height="400" src="https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xfp1/v/t1.0-9/318359_1971036494095_2042438801_n.jpg?oh=c67cb070e5f2824468c8bd80d0b302e3&oe=54D7B044&__gda__=1423050211_3511f92000f02557db524332d4b67fd5" width="239" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
One year old...</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
You taught me that once you have a child, you are more vulnerable that I had ever thought possible.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
You showed me that watching you sleep was the most important thing that I could do on any given afternoon.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img height="300" src="https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xfa1/v/t1.0-9/483608_3381132145605_1015946197_n.jpg?oh=66367fbce792e35aad6a1db56a5e86ea&oe=54DC218C&__gda__=1423513413_1ee163d6f573e58b656355d07e66e5df" width="400" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Two years old...</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Loving you has shown me that I can't control everything. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
That sometimes the most amazing moments come from letting go just a little bit.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
That sometimes it's better to let life guide us just a bit.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
You have taught me to laugh at myself, because nothing makes you laugh harder.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Three years old...</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
You have helped me to realize that throwing caution to the wind every once in a while doesn't have to be scary.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
You have taught me that the amount of love that the heart can hold is endless.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
That just when I am certain that I couldn't possibly love you more, you make my heart nearly explode.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img height="400" src="https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xfp1/v/t1.0-9/10417540_10205125078344155_8899711202859058231_n.jpg?oh=0c255e088116fe23a7695113c7ed99b5&oe=55191321&__gda__=1426545476_19117c979760b28260bf948fc306e1c0" width="225" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Four years old...</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
You have shown me that life passes by us ever so quickly.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I don't want to waste a single moment of this time that I've been given to share with you.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
You have brought me more joy that I had ever dreamed possible.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Happy Birthday, My Beautiful Baby.</div>

Thanks to Pinterest I found some easy to make Edible Finger Paints.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made the paints last night and then this afternoon the kiddos and I enjoyed painting with them. They had a weird texture to them. And I don't think that they tasted very well. I managed to keep Lyric from eating it. But with Michael.... That was a little harder. He managed to sneak a little taste here and there. And he wasn't too into painting. He did stick his fingers in it a couple of times, but didn't really paint on the paper. I knew that he was getting tired because as Lyric was finishing up he was rubbing his eyes and his face. And can you imagine what happened when he started to rub his face. The paint that was on his hands went straight to his face and his eyes. I wasn't able to get a good picture of his face after he rubbed his face. </div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lyric loved the paints. She didn't want to stop. :) It is going to be another go to paint in the future. I think that she liked the feel of them. She would scoop the blob of paint up that I put on her paper and would smear it across her paper. Then she started to mix all the paints in her hands and then would go about and make her masterpiece.</div>

So, Monday morning and this morning I made egg-less pancakes. I wanted pancakes but didn't have any eggs. So, I got to looking on the computer for pancakes that didn't involve eggs. Well, I found a very easy recipe. And it tasted wonderful! And both the kiddos enjoyed them as well. They both out ate me. But that doesn't surprise me. Lyric ate 4 pancakes Monday and this morning and Mikey ate 3 pancakes Monday and this morning. I can see these pancakes in our very near future again. Like probably next week if not this weekend. :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After we ate breakfast we cleaned up. Lyric wiped down their table and I vacuumed the floor, with Michael's help of course. I've got some pretty amazing kids, I must admit. Even if they don't listen to me very well. :(</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now, you probably want the recipe... Huh?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I found <a href="http://www.rakskitchen.net/2012/08/eggless-pancakes-recipe-pancake-recipe-soft-fluffy.html">this</a> recipe over at Rak's Kitchen.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
2 tbsp oil</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

2. add the milk, oil, and vanilla. mix well. let sit for 10 minutes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
5. serve with butter, peanut butter, powdered sugar, and/or syrup. however your heart desires.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
6. enjoy!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

The other night I was working on getting the kiddos ready for bed. But they had no desire to come to me to get diapers/pull ups on and jammies put on. Instead they wanted to play in their room and open and close the bedroom door. They both got a hit out of it. Michael's face was just priceless! He was having a blast!</div>

Do you watch Dancing with the Stars?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, I do. And I am really enjoying this season. I enjoyed last season as well. But this season is looking better and better each week. This season the stars that are on the show are;</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Meryl Davis</b> with pro <b>Maksim Chmerkovskiy</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Charlie White </b>with pro <b>Sharna Burgess</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Danica McKellar</b> with <b>Val Chmerkovskiy</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>James Maslow</b> with pro <b>Peta Murgatroyd</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Candace Cameron Bure</b> with pro <b>Mark Ballas</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Cody Simpson </b>with pro <b>Witney Carson</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Amy Purdy</b> with pro<b> Derek Hough</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Drew Carey</b> with pro <b>Cheryl Burke</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>NeNe Leakes</b> with pro <b>Tony Dovolani</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Billy Dee Williams</b> with pro <b>Emma Slater</b> (left show wk. 3)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Sean Avery</b> with pro <b>Karina Smirnoff</b> (eliminated wk. 2)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Diana Nyad</b> with pro <b>Henry Vyalikov</b> (eliminated wk. 2)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Since the Season Premier I have three or four dancers that I am really hoping to see go all the way. And they are;</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Meryl Davis</b> with pro<b> Maksim Chmerkovskiy</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Charlie White</b> with pro <b>Sharna Burgess</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Candace Cameron Bure</b> with pro <b>Mark Ballas </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Amy Purdy</b> with pro <b>Derek Hough</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I think that it is going to end up coming down to...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Meryl Davis and Amy Purdy. I would be happy to see either of them win and the other the Runner-Up. :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This week was the Switch-Up Challenge. I wasn't too sure about how this was going to go. I have my top favorite dancers and pro dancers and I did not want to see them dancing with those that I was not too fond of. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This week the dancers were paired with...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Candace Cameron Bure</b> with pro <b>Tony Dovolani</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>James Maslow</b> with pro <b>Cheryl Burke</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Drew Carey </b>with pro <b>Witney Carson</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Danica McKellar</b> with pro <b>Maksim Chmerkovskiy</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Charlie White </b>with pro <b>Peta Murgatroyd</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Amy</b> <b>Purdy</b> with pro <b>Mark Ballas</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Cody</b> <b>Simpson</b> with pro <b>Sharna Burgess</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>NeNe</b> <b>Leakes</b> with pro <b>Derek Hough</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and the best for last...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Meryl</b> <b>Davis</b> with pro <b>Val Chmerkovskiy</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was really happy to see Meryl with the other Chmerkovskiy brother. Those two are great dancers along with Derek. :) I was also happy to see Charlie with Peta. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think that Meryl is rocking the scoreboard each week. And if anyone can teach someone to dance, it is Derek. :) I do feel bad for Candace though, I think that she is being underscored. :( And I think it is because she is trying to stand by her religious beliefs. And I applaud her for that. I also think that her outfits are very pretty even though they aren't as flashy and show as much skin as some of the other outfits. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This next week I am hoping that any of these three contestants go home... I'm just not feeling them like I am some of the others.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Drew Carey</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Cody Simpson</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
NeNe Leakes</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After dinner the other night I decided that I was going to make some bath tub paint for the kiddos. It was very simple to make. All it was was shaving cream and food coloring. I used a six count muffin tin and put some shaving cream and different colors of food coloring in each tin. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I put both of the kiddos in the bath tub in a diaper and underpants. And then I let them paint to their hearts desire. They painted the walls of the bath tub and Lyric painted her brother's' tummy. The first thing that Michael did was stick his hand in the shaving cream. I think he may have liked the feeling of it. He also liked to mix all of the different colors. It was so much fun watching the two play and paint. Then we took our baths. </div>

At Walgreen's I did forget to ask about the Military Discount. :( That was our reason for going on Tuesday. And the Arizona drinks didn't ring up right. And I didn't realize that until after I had gotten home. I wasn't able to get (4) things that were on my list. (2) bags of Wonka Jelly Beans (would have been $1 ea.) and (2) Jergens Daily Glow Moisturizer (would have been free and $.99). </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Unfamiliar with this week's song? Hear it <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WEtxJ4-sh4">here</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>1. This song encourages us to "stick to the rivers and lakes you're used to." What body of water is nearest your home -- pond, lake, river, gulf or sea?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>2. Have you ever visited a waterfall? If so, please tell us about it.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nope, not that I can recall</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>3. This song is from a CD entitled CrazySexyCool. Which word best describes how you feel today: Crazy, sexy or cool?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sexy </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>4. The girls in TLC originally began hanging around together in an Atlanta-area hair salon. When did you last sit in a stylist's chair?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I was getting my hair and make-up done for the Marine Corps Birthday Ball</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>5. While she spent her adolescence in Atlanta, band member Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins was born in Des Moines. Do you live in or near the town where you were born?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nope. I'm actually on the opposite side of the country</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>6. One of T-Boz' recent public appearances was on the <i>Real Housewives of Atlanta</i>. Do you watch any of the popular Bravo <i>Real Housewives</i> shows?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nope, not for me</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>7. In the 1990's band member Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes was romantically involved with an Atlanta Falcons football player. They shared his upscale, two-story mansion. How would you describe your abode (house, cottage, apartment, condo, studio, etc.)?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't know how to describe our apartment. My home. :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>8. Ms. Lopes was accused of arson when, after the couple argued, that mansion happened to burn down. When was the last time you lost your temper? How did you express your anger? (If it was with a criminal act, you may wish to keep it to yourself.)</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The other day... Chris was a pain in the rear end. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>9. Today the third member of TLC, Chilli, <a href="http://www.bagsbychilli.com/">designs personalized handbags</a>. They cost about $225 each. What's the most expensive thing you have bought recently?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Chris got me the Harry Potter books (hardcover) for Valentine's Day. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Unfamiliar with this week's song? Hear it <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ji_5qsL1zXM">here</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>1. In this song, our hero tells Susan that "no other girl could ever take the place of you." Crazy Sam feels that no other earmuffs could ever take the place of the ones she left in restaurant coat room last month. Tell us about something you recently broke, lost or misplaced.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, I didn't break it. Chris did. He broke the screen on my phone. :(</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>2. When this song was first released back in 1968, the name Susan was very popular. According to the Social Security Administration, it was one of the top 10 baby girl names of the 1940's 1950's and 1960's. Today it's not even in the top 100. Do you know anyone named Susan (or Suzanne)?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I sure do. :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>3. The Buckinghams were Chicago's attempt to get in on The British Invasion begun by the Beatles. (Hence the silly suits.) But they took their name from Chicago's famous <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckingham_Fountain">Buckingham Fountain</a>. If Crazy Sam visited your neighborhood, what local site would you recommend she check out?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Boardwalk here in Virginia Beach or the Train Depot in Boise, Idaho.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>4. Chicago is known for deep dish pizza. Describe your dream pizza. (Calories, carbs and gluten need not be a factor because it's <i>dream</i> pizza!)</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love pizza. Any kind of pizza. I don't think that I have a dream pizza though.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
