More Little Conversations

Wow, it has been a busy week!  I have been trying to get our house cleaned and ready for Gracie's big birthday party on Saturday.  I know most of you think that should be easy because as Artie says I am OCD about having a clean house, but unfortunately I do let some things go until I am inspired  or forced to do them, like when I have some where around 40 people coming over.  I also cleaned the girls playhouse out today, yes I know that is very OCD but I just can't help myself.  It was completely full of sand!  I mean who wants to go inside and play with all the sand everywhere!  I also tried to get the deck ready or I guess I should say picked up and organized!

I am so excited about Gracie's birthday party.  It is so hard to believe that she is going to be 2, where does the time go?  She is also getting excited about it.  I keep asking her "how old are you going to be on your birthday" and she replies "two" in the sweetest little voice ever.  I asked her this morning what she wanted for her birthday and she said  "Pop" I said you want Pop for your birthday and she nodded her head yes and said "Mimi" so I said you want Pop and Mimi for your birthday and she nodded yes and then she said "Hayden" and "Daddy" and  "Kim" and "Artie" and  "Nana" and "Steve" and  "Cy" and "Nichole" and finally there at the end was "Mommy"!  So as you see she is so easy to please she just wants to see everybody she loves for her birthday!  Isn't that the sweetest thing ever!  She also wants cake!  Every time I mention her birthday she ask for cake.  She loves cake and ice cream!  I can't wait for her to see everything set up and her face when she gets to open all of her presents.  Hayden is also excited about Gracie's birthday, she loves birthday parties. 

Well on to a different subject.  I picked Hayden up from school and she is always hot and tired, they come straight from the playground to car pool.  I always take her some water with me to drink on the way home.  It is always the first thing she ask for! 
This is our conversation after she had some water:

Mommy - Did you have a good day?
Hayden - sigh, Yeah
Mommy - What did you do today?
Hayden - I don't know

Mommy - Who did you play with?
Hayden - I don't know their names

Hayden - we didn't have snacks today
Mommy - why not?
Hayden - it was someone's birthday but we didn't have birthday cake
Mommy - well what did you have?
Hayden - cupcakes but I really wanted birthday cake
Mommy - oh well were they good?
Hayden - yes
Mommy - who's birthday was it?
Hayden - I don't know

See she doesn't like to talk about her day until she is good and ready to talk about it!  I love my little conversations with both of my girls!  They make me laugh all the time!!!
