July 2009







Well as July ends I realize I should recap before we head in to August.
This month was full of swimming, BBQs, and fireworks. On the fourth of July we had a BBQ and one of my BFF (LOL) Marilan came out to celebrate with us. We set up the pool so the kids could swim. It was so hot i even went for a dip. We set off are own fireworks then headed to the fair grounds to watch the big ones, and big surprise we were running late and had to catch them at the high school but they were still nice.

Layla has started swimming lessons with India. Not her favorite thing right now but she is taking it with a grain a salt. She let her teacher no right up front that her mom says she doesnt have to do it if it will make her sick..whatever that means. Dont have to worry about her ever being told to do something tat makes her uncomfortable so thats good to know.

Now that July is coming to an end I am just relaxing waiting for a big birthday month August to come and break the bank hahaha....here's to a good book and a glass of wine

xoxoxo..layla's mommy

Just Us Girls...







While Los has been away in Texas, layla and I have been keeping are days busy making cupcakes, picnics, swimming, and helping Aunt Lindsey move into her new place. We made cupcakes for the boys at work, Layla love helping cook. Now She has her OWN kitchen so I am not having to get after for trying to cook on the REAL Stove. We cook at the same time. She is getting to be a pro at frosting those cupcakes too. Baking is one of our favorite things to do together. She has also taken up photography snapping pictures of her toes and her "baby Kinley" named of course after her baby cousin. This past Saturday, India Layla & I took a trip into Las Vegas to go swimming with Nana, Cha Nelly Nell, and Amaya and have a picnic. The girls were so tired at the end of the day they slept for everytime we got in the car. That night we helped Lindsey move the BIG stuff into her new house so India could sleep there. Sunday all granbabies went to church with Grandpa Gene and Grandma Julie. Layla said it was fun and Grandpa and Grandma unloaded two pounds of sugar when they unloaded the girls....Yeah Thanks grandpa julie and grandma julie as layla says....Monday it is back to work and then take Layla to the library to sign up for summer reading program. Los returns on Wednesday, we miss him a lot but are enjoying are girls time...Well back to work..

May for us

Layla is growing fast. She is 3 going on 21 ready to face the world and have them bow down to here pretty feet ( as she calls them). These past couple of weeks Layla spends her days in her personal spa pool, or lavished outside kitchen making mud birthday cakes, or in her award winning weed garden..She has also taken the role as movie critic with Mulan being this month blockbuster for her anyway. Lindsey and I took the girls to the movies to watch Hannah Montana. At first they loved it and as long as she was singing they would sing and dance in the isles. Sorry to the people behind us... But then the movie slows down and thats when the got restless and turned into...well lets just say it will be along time before I take them to a movie theater for right now we can watch it all from home.

Los is Los just being Mister Mom. Which he is really good at. My house is spotless (minus Layla's room) and dinner is done when I get home...most of the time. We make two trips a month to the Dr. still for his back and the treatments are only temparary..Hopefully the find something to help soon.. He is going to Texas next week to visit his family so that will be a nice break for him.

As for me I have been staying in and getting sucked into the another season of the Realwives this time its New Jersey..wow. I did get to clean and organize my scrapbook crap..that will be my next martha project...scrapbooking 101...My goal this week is to finish up my video application for the BIGGEST LOSER thats right me and lindsey..i am way excited. Thats it this wraps up the month for the moncriefs and one logue...
Have a great week..
xoxo Leslie
