Giggle Fits!

I didn't get to see Sydni this weekend, BUT, she's BACK tonight [talk about a HAPPY mama over here]. I'm never surprised at how much I miss her when she's not around, but I am constantly mind-blown at how much more I enjoy her company each and every single time. She reminds me why everything else that's a struggle for me [.. for us] right now.. is entirely worth it.

this girl makes my world complete.
she makes me complete.

We settled in after dinner for some Veggie Tales, to which she boldly choruses the opener.. every single time. I caught the tail end of it here, and in a rare moment that she's unlike me, became camera-shy and refused to do it again while I had the video camera trained on her. Oh well (:


We did some rapid fire shots, so of course, another .gif! Actually, this is even better than a video, except for the lack of sound, because there's no way I would've been able to steady a camera between tickles and giggles...
... And ponies. MLP, for days, at this place. Haha.

she.. is.. everything.

So here we are, together at last and giggled to sheer exhaustion. It's an early morning tomorrow; we've already done dinner, movie and a battle of wits over the phone with Mr. Rob [she won, babe, we all know... it's okay], so it's time to call it an early night.

See ya tomorrow!

Veggie Tales

Sydni got her first taste of Veggie Tales today, and I was reminded of why, even though they represent great Christian messages, I can still only handle those animated little characters in moderation.

Today we sat through The Wonderful Wizard of Ha’s, which is the Veggie Tales adaptation of The Wizard of Oz [if for some reason you didn’t make that connection]. While I find the appropriate re-designing of little details to create kid-friendly comprehension [ex.:

Yellow Brick Road

= Yellow McToad].

Once Joe was done with work, he and Kyle came back to the house for dinner and some Wii. Kyle and Amy earned spots on the Mii board, so in the event we ever decide to invest into two more controllers, we’re all set.

Miss Sydni was more than excited to spend the evening showing off her baby to our guest. She’s such a good little mommy, that is, if catapulting babydoll out of the play stroller before using it to smack the dog in the behind is considered good mommy’ing. So we’ve still got a little work to do… We’ll get there.

TG[T]IF! [tomorrow]
