"NOT FAIR!" and other things












Mark is so upset! It is so "not fair" that Megan "lost her other tooth before" Mark! Do you hear the whining? Brian and I do! Poor guy- his sister has lost 2 teeth and he barely has a loose one. It may be months till his come out. She lost this tooth at Grandma and Papa's while we were watching Staci perform in Little Shop of Horrors. Good job Staci! You may have a career, yet. Here's the pictures, sorry not of Staci- just the darling "God's little princess Megan". yes, that is what she calls herself, now that she is 5. Speaking of "God's little princess", Holly is obsessed with Gigi- God's little princess dvd's. Cutest thing, especially when she asks for it, she says Gigi as though she's french. Very cute! Megan is hoping for a wardrobe for Pepe. Help us, that poor dog... Enjoy the cute kids!

Pepe Lopez Goudge











Here is the dog or "wah wah" as Holly calls him with the kids. Mark & his cat Jack, too!

Megan is 5!







Well she is telling everyone that she is 5 and got her ears pierced. Meg can really turn on the charm! We had a great time at Disneyland with The Lefotu's (minus Ray), The hill's (minus Brennan), and The Cordova's, and of course Grandma. Good times! Meg bought a charm bracelet (Donald's body has already broken off), and 2 play sets- Jasmine & Tinkerbell (like Polly Pockets). She still has $20.00 she can spend at Disneyland. Here are her 5 year old pictures, she did great!

Earrings
















So, we took Meg to get her ears pierced for her 5th b-day present. She has been begging for it. We totally suprised her and took her on St. Patricks Day. She picked out the Rainbow Crystal Flower earrings (and then purchased several pairs to have for later- flowers, animals, diamonds). She was so excited0 she climbed right up on the chair and waited while I signed the paper work. 5 signatures and 6 initialing spots later the lady said "Okay you'll feel a little pinch" and she did it! meg looked at her and said "Is it in yet?" NO tears or anything. The lady said yes, do you want to see it? Of course- give Meg a mirror anyday. Then she went to the left ear and did it again. No problem from Meg, no tears, no fighting, nothing. The lady said "It's so easy when they want to get it done." I guess so, cause Meg was amazing. If anyone cried, it was Brian. Then we went to Starbucks and got a FREE vanilla milk- love the Starbucks girl, and iced tea, and a mocha drink for Brian. Next we went to See's candy- hello CHOCOLATE! Then into Bath & Body Works for Brian's "kitchen lemon" soap. Everywhere we went Megan told random people and all the sales people she got her ears pierced for her birthday. She would stop and look at all the mirrors. We finally made it to the car where Meg had to llok at all the mirrors in the car to see her earrings. She is so funny and adorable. When we got home she showed Grandma christie, Jenna, Holly, Mark, and Pepe Lopez. I am glad I let her see the episode of Jon & Kate plus 8 where Maddy got her ears pierced, I think it really prepared her well.

Pepe Lopez

I am a victim of a lost dog. Well, actually a lost dog found us. He won't leave us. I posted ads in the paper, the shelters, and vet offices by our home and no response. get this Megan has a Chihuahua named Pepe Lopez. He is now hers. Can you believe it? I am still in shock. He gets his shots on Friday and then will get neutered soon after. He has his own bowl, collar, leash, and crate. He will soon get a tag. Tilly thinks he is fun, but he doesn't know what to do with friendly, playful Tilly. I tried getting my friend Dana to take him, but no luck- so I am stuck. Meg told me "I am in love with Pepe. I love him so much my heart hurts!" The funny thing is Meg has been praying for 3 months for a cat or dog of her OWN. Was this dog from God? I don't know. I can not figure out WHY God would send me a Chihuahua. I thought Meg would get her own dog when Tilly has puppies in about 1 1/2 years. Oh well, now I have a 6 month old Chihuahua that is house broken, not nippy, and lets Megan do WHATEVER she wants to him- even dress him, carry him, and drag him around on a leash. Pictures will come later. Welcome the newest addition to the family, Pepe Lopez.

Meg's party and my time away


Megan shared a party with Katie at a gym. They had a cheerleader party. Meg did not want to participate at first. She hid behind brian till she warmed up to it. Her eis a pic, but she is not inti- as she was standing behind Brian. She ended up loving it. I'm so glad she got to have a special party with her friends. Gracie, Madison, Jayden, Diamond, Talia, Katie and 3 of Katie's friends were there too. Of course my camera died, as I wa sout of town. Free scrapbooking weekend, can't not go, since it was about to expire. I had a amazing time, always good times with Eve. Scrapbooking, a massage, and food always makes for great things. Completed 53 pages and a mini album for Brian for Fathers Day (shhh). Very rewarding weekend, but I still feel guilty. Mommy guilt gets you ALL the time.
So while I was out of town- the kids were KIDS for Brian. I almost felt sorry for him, ALMOST. He had to mop the floor 3 times in one day. They are usually nearly perfect for him when I am gone, but alas they were not. Jenna was the best then Mark, then a far Megan took 3rd and Holly was by far the worst, he said. Holly was spilling things, removing her diaper and then going to the bathroom (at least it was on the tile and not the carpet), getting into things, climbing on things. Too funny! He had a little insight into my EVERYDAY. Gotta love my fabulous husband!

Jenna


Our sweet baby girl is finally 1! She loved her cake and fun presents, the kids all play with them. From markers, to books, to a Little People house, to the Busy Ball Popper- they all love it all.

Tic Tac's

Holly lOVES tic tac's and on jenna's b-day she wound us up in the Urgent Care because she had a tic tac stuck up her nose. The doctor got it out, but it took 4 of us to hold her down. We made it home in time for jenna's cake and presents. Good times in the Goudge home.
