Drama ~ QUEEN!!!

I'm not sure why in the last couple of weeks Maddie does not want to get in the bath tub...

It is Drama every time...

She goes from this...

To this...

But then...without fail...every.single.time. within 2 minutes of getting washed down...

She looks like this...
Photobucket
Happy as can be...

Playing with her bath toys...as long as I will let her!
Photobucket
I don't get it!!! Seriously???
Photobucket
I sure hope it is just a phase...cause this Momma can only handle so much drama from this little Queen!

♥ DAY!

For Valentine's Day Dale and I went out to our favorite steakhouse here in Oklahoma "Saltgrass." It was yummy as usual...then we headed over to the Warren theaters to see "Taken"...except by the time we got there it was sold out...bummer!!! So what do you do then??? We didn't have a plan B...so we went shopping for a cheap point and shoot camera for Dale to take on his trips to Alaska and Korea coming up (because I won't let him take my camera)...not exactly a romantic Valentine's Day!
But the best part of Valentine's was this cute little project Taylor "worked really hard on" for Dale and I. He put 2 letter's on each piece of paper and hung it up above our bed...it was really hard to see what the papers said, so I added the letters above. Pretty swett huh?! I love that kid...even though he is such a stinker!
Photobucket

I found this picture the other day of my little stinker...as you know I have a hard time getting a picture of him lately where he isn't running away from the camera. Doesn't the green grass make you so excited for spring?!
Photobucket

And then there is Miss Maddie...this time it wasn't my ink pads...it was her watercolors...I guess she thought she could (sort of) wear it like lipstick...so silly!

Silver Medal.

Taylor had his first Judo Tournament a few weekends ago. He was really looking forward to it. He worked really hard preparing for it, especially for a 6 year old. He had 2 hours of Judo 2 nights a week...I think that is a lot for a little kid.
Photobucket
I loved the intent faces watching the bigger kids compete first. Most of these kids were competeing for the first time, so it was fun watching them watch the others.
Photobucket
Dale and Maddie had to keep busy too...thank goodness for the DS.
Photobucket
Finally after 2 hours it was Taylor's turn to compete. I know the pictures are kind of blurry, but you get the point...
Photobucket
Taylor competed with 2 boys...he lost the first match, but the 2nd one he won! This picture is Taylor flipping the kid...it was awesome! Also, because Taylor was in a higher bracket because of his weight, both of the boys were higher ranked then him and they were older then him, so we were pretty proud of him!
Photobucket
Just had to throw this one in too...now you know why Taylor is camera shy...Dale is going to love me for this one!
Photobucket
Taylor with the winners from his division.
