Moody Gardens

We decided that this year we would get the Moody Gardens family pass and we went today to get them. We could only stay a little while this time but we are looking forward to going back again.

We went to the aquarium and as soon as you open the doors to the place it smells like a seafood restaurant.  Ivy walked in and said "mmmmm crabbies! " Makes you wonder why it smells that way.

Looking forward to getting our money out of these passes.

Hot Stuff

Izaac likes hot things. Dips, sauces, candy etc. We were at Mooya the the day and he was having his normal hot dog...and if you know Mooya it's a crime not to have a burger. Well, Ivy got a burger an offered Izaac a taste, Izaac said if he could put Tobasco on it he would eat it. Sure, more power to ya.

It worked!

He then goes on to tell us that if he is allowed to put hot sauce on things he did not "like" that he would probably eat them. No problem, we can handle that. He even said he would try peas again (big failure, peas + hot sauce = ick).

Tobie tells Izaac that he can have his own shelf in the pantry so he can collect his sauces...this went over well. And he has been eating more new things with sauce added. Peppers are full of vit C right:-) He only has three bottles, but the quest has begun for strange and interesting bottles.

My kid raising tip that I live by (and you can tell by Ivy's outfits) is pick your battles.

Ivy's Tattoos

A little late, but I took the pictures on my new tablet and I was having issues figuring out how to post from it.

Ivy really got into the tattoos...did not want to post the ones on her belly and back.

For Mom

I never thought Ivy would pick this dress to wear. But she has put it on twice now. The first picture  did not turn out so when she put it on again today I jumped at the chance to take another picture.

The reason the title of this post is "For Mom" is because this is the dress I wore in my Aunt Susie's wedding (hope I have that right). I am assuming I was 4 but only because it fits Ivy so well and she is 4. Mom will correct me if I have it wrong.

I will have to get a picture of me in it and post it along side Ivy to see how we compare :-)

What is she thinking?

We live in Texas and it is stinking HOT and this is what Ivy chooses to wear. I don't get it. I did convince her to put something else on so if she got hot she would be able to take a layer off...so that is a sun dress you see peeking out.

Dancing in the Rain

We were so excited to see the rain the kids wanted to play in it. I can't blame them it was like a special occasion.  Let's hope we get some more.

Ivy Style

Ivy likes to pick out her own clothes. What inspired this outfit I will never know. She didn't sleep in those pj's that was a clean addition to the outfit. Only answer I got from her was that she was cold.
