Today is gloomy, the sun isn't shining. Hope and I are just hanging out at home eating pizza for lunch. Before I know it she says that Peyton is yucky. I look at the dog and he is drooling like crazy just staring at the pizza on her plate. A few minutes later Hope is feeding him her pizza. When I ask her to stop she says, "He just wants a little baby piece." When she thinks I'm not looking she hands him half a piece of pizza then proceeded to let him lick her pizza covered fingers. No wonder they have become such good buddies lately.
She's now on her third piece of pizza & I'm waiting to see how much she feeds the dog.
They look so innocent don't they???

Hope just came running to me all excited and said "Happy Birthday Mommy".
I told her it wasn't my birthday today and she says "Happy Mother's Day Mommy".
I didn't have the heart to tell her that today isn't Mother's Day.

Tonight after dinner Brinnon took Hope outside so I could get somethings done. While they were outside playing I was able to get alot accomplished so I decided to make brownies. They came back inside right as I was getting ready to mix them so Hope had to stir. While the brownies were in the oven I was able to get Hope in the bath and the only way I could get her out was to tell her the brownies were ready. As she was eating her brownie she turns to me and says, "Mommy me eating poop".
Me: Oh really. Do you know what poop tastes like?
Hope: Nope but me eating poop.
Me: Hope that is gross. (she giggles)
Then she gets up real close to my face, looks me in the eye and says, "Mommy, you have poop in your eye."
Me: No I don't
Hope: Ah huh you have poopie in your eye mommy...more giggles
Me: Hope just eat your brownie
What's the deal with poop?

Welcome to my new spot in this thing called cyberspace. My old blog was getting to negative and wasn't much fun anymore so I decided to try something new. The old blog was all about our attempts to get pregnant, all the drama, the sadness etc. When Hope came along things got better and then we tried IVF again...what were we thinking..lol. All the old hurt came back. So this new blog is going to be lighter, happier. It's going to be my way of remembering all the cute and funny things Hope says and does. You know how it goes, kids say something funny and you think to yourself that you should write it down but you don't. Time goes by too fast and I want to remember the fun stuff. Welcome to Raising Hope.
(In case you were wondering, Hope helped pick out the design)
