Locked Out

Just before lunch time today I received a call from my husband who sounded rather stressed. Haley was crying in the background. When I asked what was wrong he said"your daughter locked me out of the house for 20 minutes!" ( Of she was my daughter, she always belongs to the other person when she is crazy) Haley is at the age where she is fascinated by everything and wants to do everything. James had gone outside to take the trash out and my OCD daughter HATES open doors. She shut it behind him and locked it. Haley only knows how to turn the lock one way. As she wiggled the door knob and cried for her daddy he was desperatly trying to get in. He went from front to back trying different ways to get her to open the door, accidently letting the dogs out in the process. He finally got in and our daughter just wanted to be held.

Lately I have been taking my keys with me when I step outside because I was afraid something like this was going to happen. I would freak out so I'm glad it happened to my husband and not me.

One of our neighbors ended up catching our dogs and bringing them back . James was so annoyed that they ran off he told me he didn't care if they came back or not and he was not going to chase them down the street. Of course it's when you don't care that they come back.

Haley ended up taking a 4 hour nap today. James had to go wake her up. She is either growing again or was so distraut from not being able to get to her daddy that she was exhausted.

Thankfully today was just a good wake up call and not a disaster!!

The Start

Good Morning! I started this blog so that my family and friends, near and far, could get updates on my crazy family. I hope everyone enjoys.

So far today has been wonderful. Woke up this morning and the sun was shining. Haley was sleeping peaceully coved by her pillow, instead of her blanket. And now we are watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. Her absolute favorite show!!

Last night James and I took Haley to watch Faith play Basketball. Haley was not shy about screaming mumbles onto the court at her sister. She sure was cheering her on and it was wonderful. Faith did such an amazing job! Her team won 2 out of the 3 games they played. i think they would have won their 3rd game, but they were just tired from playing so much.

Time to ger ready for church and the rest of the day! Hopefully pictures to come soon! As soon as I get more batteries for my camera! :)
