Kids, Cats and Coffee

My name is Kelli. I am Mommy to Tommy (12), Julia Star (11) and Ava (8). Wife to Lorne since 4.18.2010 though we have been a family since 2007. We have 2 cats and a beagle, as well. We are a close, fun, silly, heavy metal loving, loud, nerdy family.

Followers, please click and vote for this photo of Ava.  She could win a photo shoot, a new dress and be entered for a chance to win a playhouse.  Thanks!!

We redid Ava's room. It took 6 hours. Now I need to paint it.

  The girls were so bad in the store yesterday we made them put their candy back.   

Then on the way out as they were pouting and crying I snapped I photo to use as a reminder to behave next time we go to the store.

"We call ourselves ‘Twirl’ because we’re chocolate and vanilla. The best of both worlds!" Julia and her BFF Ionae.

  Julia and Ava had a day off of school and we had nothing to do, so we played dress up and I snapped some photos with my new camera. My family loved the photos so much, I framed some and gave them out as gifts. :)

Old, but cute.

Me: “Ava, are you really trying to nap on the toilet paper?”

Ava: “Mommy. The bear in the commercial sleeps on it and the cheap kind sticks to his little bear butt.”

Dinner with Ava.

Ava: Mommy, these are my ribs, right? (points to her ribs)

Me: Yep. Sure are.

Ava: You are eating ribs right now.

Me: No, baby, I'm eating wings.

Ava: Oh. (Takes a bite of one of my wings)

Me:

Ava:

Me:

Ava: (puts her arms up in the air and looks around) Where are my wings, Mommy?
