Welcome Chloe

Malia wants to introduce everyone to her new dog, Chloe. Chloe is part Papillion and part Poodle breed called a Bijou. She was born Sept.24th and has already been adapting really well to our family (even passed her first haircut). I know we were going to try and wait until spring but work will be easier for a month due to the phase of the project we are at so it worked nice to be around more for the dog.

On another note, I have to share Malia's new saying.

Me: Are you bringing your cereal in the car?
Malia: Yes
Me: Well then put it into another bowl.
Malia: Why?
Me: So you don't spill it all over the back seat.
Malia: Oh, my gosh!

Her response took me so by surprise that I just started laughing. So of course, she proceeded to say "Oh my gosh" to everything all weekend. I hope everyone had a nice weekend!

Princesses and Mickey!!!

We had a nice vacation to Disney World and Malia loved Cinderella. By far Cinderella was her favorite and she asked about her all of the time. I told her once that Cinderella was napping in the castle to rest after dancing in her show and we went on to the carousel. On the horse, she spotted Cinderella in the castle through the stained glass windows walking around (for the character lunch). I couldn't believe that she spotted her. We had a really nice time meeting princesses and the characters. We also went on rides and saw the show for playhouse Disney and Muppet's. However, the weather was not cooperating. Monday it rained all day for my birthday. Luckily I got in free that day so it wasn't too sad that we had to leave the park early. Then Tuesday and Wednesday it didn't rain but it was really cold.... like 30's even with wind. Last night it was a record low for all of February with a wind chill of 5. They had all of the plants covered and a freeze warning. How crazy. I hope the pictures look OK. We figured out halfway through the trip that it was fingerprints on the lens (thanks Malia) versus the camera that was giving the haze.
