Just so you know, this is a "test" blog...been wanting to do this for a while and finally got around to it.
Well, here goes!
My dear girl Remy came to visit this week.
And I have a confession to make: I turned her into a Pride & Prej junkie! Started the dvd at 8:00 after Papa went to bed and she made it through the whole thing and absolutely LOVED it! Next morning she wanted to know if she could watch tv and guess what she wanted to watch! and then we had nap time (and I use the term loosely) on the sofa and watched it again! She calls it the princess movie. :)
But here's what really got me. When she saw Lady Catherine De Bourgh she said, "She looks like you, Nanny!" YIKES!!!! I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. After all, kid's are brutally honest!! But then' judging from the picture of us "exercising", I can understand why she said that! LOL!
So last night she's pampering herself in the tub as I was pampering my face with layer after layer of "stuff". As I explained to her, it is to help my keep my skin looking younger and she promptly told me my neck looks old! But she didn't mean that in a bad way, she said! -tee hee- This morning she made up for it though. She wanted me to "curl" her eyes lashes. What she meant was, she wanted me to put some mascara on them. I said, Oh, no, you're too young for that, and besides, I don't think your mommy would like that." She got all sad and started to get watery eyed and said, "But I just want to be beautiful like you, Nanny!" Well, needless to say, she got to wear mascara!
I bought an amaryllis bulb down at Terrain. Never had one before. Isn't it pretty? It's calle La Paaz.
Okay, that's my first post. I can't figure out how to place the pictures. Help, Rebekah!
lol...i was gonna ask YOU how you made the pictures do that! Just so happens i'm watching pride & prej on tv right now :-D ..."Mr. Collins, sir, i am not the sort of FEMALE to torment a respectable man. Please understand me I CANNOT accept you!" haha
ReplyDeleteRemy's so funny! just priceless...the tears and all...how could you possibly resist? she told me on the phone tonight that she got to wear mascara and the first thing i said was "what did your mother think of that?!" ha. Pacey told me they were gonna watch a movie and maybe play a game tonight. I said, "oh that sounds fun!" to which he replied, "it WILL be!!" :)
good grief i can hardly read this font!!!
ReplyDeleteBTW...i think lady catherine de bourgh is AWESOME!! and beautiful to boot :)
ReplyDeleteFun, good job mom! Thanks for having Remy, I know she had a blast. I gave her a bath tonight and when it was time to settle in bed for the night, she asked me " Is my eye lash make up still on?" I told her that it most likely came off when I washed her face. She wasn't very happy at her mother:( She is all girl! I missed her so much while she was with you. The one night I went to her room to check her before I went to bed only to remember she wasn't here!
ReplyDeleteThink she had about three pieces of gum today:) I caught her in the closet in kitchen and asked her what she was doing. I told her I think she had enough gum for one day, her reply to me was " Nanny told me it was suger free."
She told us tonight at the dinner table that Nanny is on a diet. "She can only drink tea and coffe." Josh said, it's more like a cleanse. She doesn't miss a beat!
Thanks again for having her, I know she enjoyed her time with you both. Love you!
Sorry about the font, but for some reason I am really into old fashioned cursive - the kind I was taught in school all those years ago - and this is the closest I could find to it!
