To children all snug in their beds

I couldn't let this day pass without writing something! Everyone is asleep except for me. I feel like a kid in a candy store. No one is grabbing my leg or calling my name. They are all snug in their beds for now. Christmas is such a crazy, wonderful time all by itself. We have enjoyed so many different activities this year, but mostly we have enjoyed each other. Don't get me wrong, there have been fights and messes galore. But at the end of the day my children have slept in the same room each night whispering as they went to sleep.

We are so blessed to have our children, grandparents, and a great grandparent with us this evening! Our life is not perfect, far from it, but it is ours and we love it.

I received what will probably be my favorite gift this morning...My little Snoop wagged his tail for the first time in many weeks! (FYI-it is not a good gift because I have spent mucho dollars on him, it is because I love him dearly, Seriously.)

Merry Christmas to all!

Snoop Update

Yes, Snoop is still with us, and no he is not walking. Well, not on all four legs. I swear that little maniac may be faster with only his front two working! Yesterday, I caught him with the cat pinned down on the floor just like old times.

A couple of weeks ago I said to Chris, "I will do the surgery, but I will not go to dog physical therapy." We had our second session today, along with acupuncture. Not kidding.

We are still hoping that he will walk again, and that he doesn't have one of those roller things. But, never say never. We are definitely suckers! Please don't make fun of us.

NYC

Ok, New York City was Fuuuuunnnnnnn! The kids were great. Yes, Zac did get pretty close to the street a few times, Chris and Abby might have gotten stuck without a subway card and I might have had to beg a police officer to let them in anyway, we definitely ate way too many pieces of pizza and Magnolia Bakery cupcakes, but oh well.

Hanna loved it. She went from morning to night. We stayed in Times Square, so we could shop whenever we wanted. And yes, our baby girl came face to face with Justin Bieber. See:

Will was a trooper. He went to NYC with strep throat and left with some kind of coughing thing. No, it wasn't Whooping Cough.The first three times we passed the NBA store, it was closed; which was not good! Finally, he got to go in! We made it worth the wait.

 Here he is, doing what he does best, hiding from my camera:

Zac-i-poo (he says it's ok, that I call him this) was so good! He was a trooper. He was on his best behavior MOST of the time. He had one very short, but memorable fit in the entrance of Bobby Flay's restaurant. His very favorite place was the Toys R Us store. See why?:

Do I look freaky in this picture? Do you want to know why? I waited for 11 years to try that cupcake, and yes it was good!

Chris did lots of fun things in New York. One of the most important was transporting and guiding our children all over the city! Here is one mode of transportation:

Yes, I know he has a paci in his mouth, but it is now gone. Left in NYC forever.

Abby turned 1 on Thanksgiving Day. Can you believe it? Neither can I! See her beautiful cake...It just might have pushed one of our children over the edge and into Vomitville. Guess who?

One post cannot do justice to our whirlwind trip to New York. This is just the appetizer!

Being present

In the past week, I have been struck by the differences in each of our children. They are amazing individuals. Each of their needs are very different and require us to meet them in different places at different times (add a paralyzed dog to the mix, and you have true craziness!).

Sometimes, we don't know exactly what is going on, or if something has happened. Are they tired, did they eat too much junk (this is my standard answer for everything that goes wrong! Clearly, not the problem usually, darn.), is someone bullying them at school, are they bullying? The list goes on and on and changes from year to year.

I worry, silently. I pray. I read. The child usually comes clean and we work through it. The consistent technique that works for me is being present. Present in mind and body. Ok, this sounds really hokie. I am not a self-help guru, nor do I want to be. HOWEVER, we all know this is a very busy time of year!!!!

So, I would like to challenge you and myself to be present in our lives and the lives of our children.

Cheers, and please funny stories come my way today! No more weird thoughts or philosophical posts for a while!

Living life today

I had an unsettling dream, not quite awake thought last night. You know, when you wake up in the middle of the night and immediately start stressing about something? Well, my thought was "you are 10 years away from 50." I know it's kooky, but that is what I thought.

That feels old to me. Kind of scared me. I realized that life is now, not 5 years from now, or when everyone is out of diapers, it's NOW. By the way,  I can't believe I'm 39 and still saying out of diapers. Wow.

So, instead of waiting to eat all the healthy foods I'm supposed to, I'm eating them now. Instead of waiting to watch "Love Actually" (my favorite Christmas movie!!!!) until I have a 2+ hour block of time, I watched it over two nights. Instead of stressing about how much Christmas costs, I'm going to enjoy it. You spend the money whether you stress about it or not.

I realize I most likely have many years to go, but they go fast as we all know.

I want to savor my life and my families, and make sure I live it each day! Cheers and remember to live the  life you want today.

Welcome Home Snoop Dogg

Snoop is home. He is resting and happy. His ears perked when I said, "Snack." Yeah Snoop! We are so thankful to have our sweet, little puppy dog home. Just so you know, before the accident, he really wasn't a dog I would describe as sweet. He was more crazy, wild, infuriating at times but we LOVE him.

His legs aren't moving at all, yet. We are still hoping and praying for the swelling to go down and his legs to regain feeling. Join us, please.

Our Snoop

I write this post with a very heavy heart. Instead of sharing our stories from New York, I will share sad news about our dog Snoop. While we were in NYC, Snoop ruptured a disc in his back. His back legs are paralyzed. We are hoping his surgery today will fix this. We have a 50/50 chance. We love Snoop. We miss Snoop.

This is Snoop on the way to his surgery. We hope we can share a picture of him on his way home. So, pray for him, think about him, hope that he will be back to driving us all crazy very, very soon!

Football to hair glue

Football is over for our little ones.  A week ago I would have said finally over, but of course now that it is over it's not so fun. We don't really know what to do with ourselves when this happens. You see where we live Football is life. Even though I try really hard to maintain a balance, I lose. Every single year. Will has been playing since 1st grade. Chris is coach. They practice, they play games, they watch it on tv. It's all they do for several months.

Hanna is a cheerleader. So, in our free time away from Will's football, we watch her team play. Then we may go to an OSU football game, and we may even go to a Kansas City Chiefs game. See what I mean?

So now we are in recovery mode. It's getting a little better.

The big news around here today is Hanna. She has a cheer competition in the morning. She has worked really hard! We are all excited for her. We are not excited about the hair glue I just bought (they told me to!). The hair glue I have to put in her hair with rollers tonight. Rollers she can't take out until the competition tomorrow. This should be interesting. What a transition...football to hair glue. Need I say more?

Changes

We are going through lots of changes in our household right now. Football is over, which means Chris and Will are home which means lots of things. Like, they get a lot of stuff out and don't pick up.

In addition, this week, our kitchen is being remodeled. Very fun on the first day. We get to eat out, no where to do dishes, wow less work for me. Today is the fourth day and I'm not having fun anymore. Thankfully this change will pass soon.

The other ones are going to be a bit more painful for us all. Especially those of us who don't like to pick up our room more than a few times a year. Yes, this mom has finally gotten over it! Come hell or high water, their closets and the hangers will be used. This is Day Two. We are currently without television, music, cell phone, computer, or XBox privileges! Wow.

To make everyone even crankier we ARE eating healthy, healthy, healthy! That started out with a big 'ol bang! The bang would be an argument over whether or not mash potatoes and mac and cheese as a meal were healthy. They aren't, I won. Child quickly pointed out Chips and salsa weren't either. Darn! Be careful what you wish for parents. Unless you too are ready for a change.

Paci update-Only in bed (most of the time). Still LOOOOOVVVVEEEES it and insists big boys do have them. They don't, right?

Happy Birthday Will!

Why, why, why can I not be more reliable as a blogger? Oh yeah, I have four children! I have thought about my blog many, many times but my caffeine habit will only tide me over until about 10ish then I am a mess. A tired, crazy mess and so is my house which I why you haven't heard from me in a while.

 So, it's 10:15 p.m.. Forgive me if this isn't completely coherent.

We celebrated Will's ninth birthday today. We had so much fun! Bowling and go carts with his best buddies. Money well spent. We were coming home from the party, and I was sooo excited for him to see his brand new bike sitting right in the center of the garage. His brand, new bike. Did he notice it? Nope.  Did I have to point it out for him? Yes. Has he been on it yet, no. He had to come inside and work on his fantasy basketball team. Seriously! Did I say he was 9 or 19? Oh yeah 9.

So in this spirit his Dad and I are going to the World Series tomorrow, ALONE. No kiddos. First time in a long, long time. Do we feel guilty? Not anymore.

Why we have babies

Kids are our little treasures, blessings, gifts, etc., etc, etc. But lets  just be REALLY honest. One of my greatest joys when my kids are little, specifically girls, is buying clothes. Really, really cute clothes. Abby is 10 months. She is thinking really seriously about walking. Soooooo, we had to get some really cute shoes, right? Here she is in her really cute shoes. Yes, I know she is not walking, in fact, I'm pretty sure they have hindered her walking, but......she looks good!

Now, I just need to clarify two quick things, before we go on our way. One, Abby really was a surprise. I didn't plan her and not tell anyone just so I could by those super cute baby clothes. And, yes I can be shallow, however I was getting her all dressed up to go to Church! That makes it ok, right?

Messy cars and morals

Ok, so today I devoted almost my entire day to football and cheerleading. I do this every Saturday for a very long time. Like through November.

The day started out quite wonderful. I went to Target by myself. Wow! Went to yoga, again by myself. Wow! Two places in one day. Then I hurried home to get three kiddos ready for Will's football game. This included getting Hanna's ENTIRE uniform (we struggle at this!), including her hair bow ready in advance, because we wouldn't have time to come home in between games (of course she wouldn't just WEAR the uniform). We go to Will's game and have a leisurely time. Boys score mucho touchdowns and I'm enjoying conversation with women my age. WOW! I definitely should have known there was chaos in the future.

We leave the game, arrive at Mimi and Papa's with 20 minutes to get Hanna ready. Is the uniform in the car? Not that I kind find until....I drive all the way home which is 20 minutes out of our way and realize....in the midst of freaking out about my car being messy I stuck the uniform in the under compartment of the car and...forgot! OMG! Of course I realize it was in the car the whole time after....I lecture Hanna on being selfish and how she was more worried about herself than helping me get everything ready, blah, blah, blah.

Soooooooo, the moral of the story is...when things are going good they will always go bad and don't freak out about your car being messy!

The Hand that Rocks the Cradle

Today's blog is courtesy of Tim Russert's book, Big Russ and Me. This is a book I bought for my husband,   of which he has yet to read one page. I decided too. On the second or third page I found a quote that still fascinates me,

"The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world." (Of course that would be my hand, so you go figure why I like this quote so much!)

Wow!

Bits and pieces

Ok, first things first. You are probably wondering why I'm up this early. Well, I'm actually always up this early, but today I was going to run. I was all dressed and outside when I noticed the lightening. Bummer! Upside...Zac goes to school today for a full day. Wow, just me and Abby. Kind of bittersweet.

Lots going on here yesterday. Kids went to school. Zac and I slowly recovered from his party. Slowly being the key word. At one point I actually drifted off to sleep on the floor of Abby's closet. Does it mean you are getting old when you can spontaneously fall asleep anywhere and I mean anywhere?

Will went to football, Hanna acting and musical theater. Drifted off to sleep with the Chiefs playing. Please tell me they won!

So, Hanna has to try and cry in her next acting class. We are currently thinking of ways she can accomplish this. By thinking of ways, I mean she is talking about it non stop, we are giving her ideas, and she of course is rejecting all of them. KIDS! I will keep you updated on the crying just 6 more days to go!

Tummy Aches for Zac...

Today was Zac's birthday party. As I  am writing this (with 10-month-old in hand because she had too much sugar and WILL NOT SLEEP) I am feeling rather disgusting. Quite odd when you are talking about your 4-year-olds birthday, right? Well, not if you ate a good portion of the cake! Which I did, and will probably do again in another month when Will turns 9!

The Cox family had fun today. The whole family pitched in to get ready for the party, which for me, was more fun than the party itself. Now that I think about it, there wasn't one fight today. Maybe we should throw parties more often. Perhaps I have just discovered a bit of genius!

The real fun began when this was delivered...

This was our Spiderman bounce house. They bounced and they bounced and they bounced. Will came inside at one point and said, "Wow, that really tires you out." Which of course was the plan.

Here's our little Birthday Boy (notice, no paci) as he takes a break to pose for his mom.

and here he is with some of his buddies...

and here he is washing away all the sugar from his second piece of cake right before bed (in case you were wondering, this is a perfectly acceptable time to have cake, because if he doesn't I will and that is not acceptable!) (you might also wonder why is left hand is cupped and not lying flat on the countertop, yep he's hiding the paci)...

So, as I sit here with a tummy ache and maybe even a few extra pounds I marvel at my baby, Zac. He is such a rough and tumble little guy, but his heart is soooo big. (this weekend, he did tell a friend he wouldn't be his friend anymore but we are pretty sure that was just a small glitch in his overall good personality.) He makes me laugh everyday and life would not be complete with out him. I will eat until my tummy hurts any day to celebrate this little guy!

Paci's and football

No new fabulous pictures, but still some stuff to share. I've had lots of paci questions. Well, he still has it, loves it, covets it. Just not as much. I remember Chris telling me one time, "It's not how you start, it is how you finish." That is my mantra. I'm not sure I see the finish line quite yet.

On the same note, Abby now is in love with the paci. Somehow we went from her having it only in her bed, to it being her favorite toy. Yesterday she was crawling around with one in her mouth, and one in each hand. She was in total bliss. Our future is dim.

We are completely submerged in football. Seriously. Do I like this? For about 10 minutes, and they were up a long time ago!!! I guess I should clarify. I loooove watching Will play. I loooooove watching Hanna cheer. Past that I don't need much more football.

By the way, in case you didn't know. Hanna informed us that cheerleading is just as important as football. So there!

The Paci

We have a love, hate relationship with the pacifier. Currently it is hate for a couple of reasons. First, Hanna has several thousand dollars worth of metal in her mouth that we can trace back to many years of pacifier addiction. Second, Zac is going through withdrawal. Yes, I know he turns 4 in a few weeks and we should have done this long ago. But, we didn't. We had dreams of him realizing he was too big and offering to give it up willingly. Those dreams are shattered and reality is setting in.

Zac and his paci in happier times...

Sooooo, he is only getting his pacifier when he is laying down. Guess what that means? Yes, we have found him laying down a lot! Here for example (yes, that is the middle of his room):

and yes, that is a pink paci he stole from his sister.

So in addition to cheer practice, piano, playgrounds, swimming pools apparently we are running a rehab for pacifier addiction (please do not tell anyone, one patient is enough!). He is our baby, but it is time. Wish him luck (and us too)!

Blessed

Well, it's been a while. A long while. I have been on two vacations, football and cheerleading camps, volunteered to be snack list creator, freaked out because my son is 8 and they (of course this is my opinion, the moms opinion, and they are my husband and our friends) are definitely treating him like he is at an NFL training camp, freaked out when oldest daughter had "no" friends in her new class (quickly realized this is probably a good thing since it is school and we are supposed to be learning), started our 3 year old in flag football, survived our baby's surgery, scheduled mouth surgery, cancelled mouth surgery (freaked out again), rescheduled mouth surgery,  bought a new 4G iphone which I truly coveted, BROKE a new iphone which I now realize is just a phone!

Yes, we are busy and crazy, but I realize every day that we are blessed beyond belief!

We were reminded on several occasions this summer that life is a gift and not a guarantee. The one that stands out the most is our cousin beating cancer, a very rare form called Burkitt's Lymphoma. My head is still spinning from the thought of what I would do if it were my 11 year old, and in the meantime he has endured and survived countless surgeries and chemotherapy treatments, and much more that I don't know and probably couldn't comprehend. They did it with faith, prayer, and determination and we all learned something from them.

So yes, I am back. The whole family is back, and we are thanking God and our family and friends for such a wonderfully, crazy life.

Talk to you soon!

Midnight movie madness

It's a fact, my kids talk me into crazy things. Usually it involves spending way too much money on something they play with for about 24 hours. This time it involved sleep, or lack thereof (I don't like my sleep messed with! What little I get I like.). It also involved vampires and werewolves. You guessed it...we went to the midnight movie of Eclipse. Yes, I did say midnight which actually turned into 1 a.m. and bed at 3:30 a.m.

It was fun. I never need to do that again, ever.

Notice my eyes are open...way before the movie started.

Hanna and her cousin Alyssa eating their popcorn, I of course was drinking coffee!

Braces, braces and more braces

We have been talking about braces ALOT this summer in our household. Hanna had an official countdown. I know it, Chris knows it, her brothers and sister know it, and anyone else who came in contact with our family this summer knows it. She was obsessed!

Do I understand this? No, I do not. Could we have bought her some really cool things with the thousands of dollars we are spending on her teeth? You bet. Would she like them as much as the braces, probably not. Have I accepted this yet? Not completely. Does it matter that I haven't accepted it? As usual, no.

Before braces

After!

Seven games in Bixby

Wow, summer is fun! I have actually spent most of it in my car whizzing around Tulsa, but oh well. Did you have a nice, relaxing weekend. Possibly hang at the lake or the pool? Well, not me. I was in Bixby, Oklahoma at the AA State Tournament. Will had 7 games, yep SEVEN. We started out Friday. The whole family. We were hot  really hot. Here's Abby, see how hot she is...

Abby didn't come back on Saturday or Sunday. We decided if you are too hot to wear clothes it's probably better to stay home in the air conditioning.

Zac however found a way to keep cool...

This is right before we went back to watch the game. Next thing I know he is rolling in the dirt on the vacant field behind us!

Will's team the Vypers were Awesome! Sweet, tough little 8 year old boys. They played 2 games Friday, 3 games Saturday, and two on Sunday. 3rd place...

Will is the catcher. He got lots of little boys out at the plate with help from his teammates. Go Willie!

Between games 1 and 2 with his buddies. They were just getting going.

Now, this looks like a picturesque weekend, right? Little league baseball, a trophy, sounds good. Except for the beasts (actually coaches) of the team who beat us twice in the tournament. They were big, fat(I  typicaly don't describe anyone in this way, but they deserve it!!0 and loud. They were intimidating to our kids and theirs. Why, why must grown men take sports and twist and turn them into something they weren't meant to be? Why does this infuriate me to the point that I even yell things I probably shouldn't from the sidelines....

After a few deep breaths and a hug from Will we moved on. Hopefully we play em again next time and ....win, BIG.

Hot, Hot, Hot!

I have so much to say, I think. I think during the day, I think, but the heat is just melting my thoughts away. I thought I loved heat. I was wrong. I don't. I'm tired of sweating and stinking. I'm REALLY tired of getting up at 6 a.m. to run. Do you know it's even hot at 6 a.m. I usually talk to my runner partner when I run, now I just complain.

We went to see Toy Story 3 today (I think it was good, but I fell asleep. Anytime I have a moment where every child is accounted for and engaged. I sleep. Even in the movie theater!) It was hot in the movie theater.

We are currently only leaving our house to go to the pool or get ice cream. In fact, we have replaced either lunch or dinner with ice cream. If it gets any hotter we may replace lunch and dinner!

Summertime!

Since you've heard from me it has been busy, busy, busy! I have many stories to share. So let's start here...

Hanna turned 11. Yes the picture is a little odd. In fact it looks like she is turning 6, because her mother cut off her other hand with her photo-taking expertise. Are you wondering why we are celebrating in a hair salon?

Because all she wanted for her birthday was blue hair. Is that odd? I'm not sure she is my first. The girl doing her hair (who was quite young) thought I was really calm for not freaking out at the amount of blue in her hair. That was meant as a compliment but of course caused me to freak out!

This was her yummy, yummy cake that I ate alot of because I was still freaking out about the girl, at the hair salon, telling me I wasn't freaking out.

This is Hanna's new present for her 11th birthday, and yes I jumped on it alot the night we got it to work off all that chocolate cake. Oh yes, she did too!

Did I tell you that the day after she got the blue hair we were going to Kansas City for a graduation party? It was all my dad's coworkers. I wasn't sure how into blue hair my dad would be. In fact as I was thinking back to high school days and what he might have done if I arrived with blue hair, I decided braids for Hanna. Braids that cover blue hair.

Enough of blue hair! This is in Overland Park, KS at the Deanna Rose Farmstead. We LOVE the farmstead. Here Zac and Hanna and Will are feeding baby goats.

Amidst all the chaos Ms. Abby learned to sit up...

at least some of the time!

We've been swimming, lots! But this was right before our very first day. By the way, the goggles are a permanent fixture for Zac along with batting gloves on both hands!

We went to Kentucky. This is my sister's grave. We were there on Memorial day. Bittersweet always. I miss her!

Nanis lives in Kentucky. We go every summer. What to do at Nanis' house? Climb a tree! A great big one!

We went to Boonseboro and learned all about Daniel Boone, and of course bought GUNS!

The kiddos swam in the creek with their cousin, Rustin. They had so much fun! Stripped down to their undies and jumped in crawdads and all. These city kids can hang in the country...I think! Ok, maybe not.

We sat on Nanis' porch (notice, I have a running shirt on. I believe I got dressed in running attire that first day and quickly decided sitting on the porch drinking coffee was way more my speed. I put the clothes back in my suitcase and left them there for the rest of the trip. So liberating!)

This is what we look at when we sit on the back porch at Nanis'...

Is that the July issue of Southern Living you ask? Nope, that is my Nanis' garden. It is beautiful. Her home always makes me feel at peace. Is she when we are there? Probably not, considering she mopped her back porch at least 4 times. One time it just might have been because Zac peed. Seriously!

In a nutshell

This is my life all wrapped up into one little photo. Seriously!

Settling in

We do exist!

I am so lucky to know people with cameras who actually use them! You see we have several cameras, but they don't get used too often. Too hard to juggle kiddos and cameras.

You may have wondered where I've been (or maybe not!). Well, I have been tired. Seriously tired. The last weeks of school are brutal! We have parties, baseball games, more parties, more baseball games, recitals. In fact Hanna has a recital for her tumbling class. She is 37th out of 50. Would I have signed her up if I had known on May 22 I would sit through 37 dance routines before my daughters? Probably not. It better be good!

Zac is almost done. One more day of preschool. Hanna and Will have a week and a half. This time of year brings out mixed emotions. Sad that they are done with another year. It goes so fast. Will has been with his teachers for two years so it will be tough saying good bye. But that emotion is quickly overwhelmed by FEAR. Fear of spending everyday with them for the next two and half months. They fight, whine, watch too much tv and mess up the house. Which is why I have frantically signed them up for camps!

My fear will pass and we will settle in. I will sleep late. I will turn brown from so much time at the pool and lake. I will tire of the heat about mid-july and go to Target, Wal-Mart or wherever and we will have a summer-time Christmas. I will buy toys and games that will occupy them for days and hours because it is hot outside and I want to be inside. I will organize while staying cool. I will not want them to start again.

Look for my blog in August when they are going back to school and I am oh so sad...it happens every year. I will settle in again and be glad for a little quiet time.

Bliss

I feel the same way when I see you, Abby!

A visit from the doctor

Abby's Dr. came to visit us today. He and a nurse came to our house for a well-child appointment. It was fantastic! She giggled and laughed on her little playmat she lays on every day. So comfortable in her surroundings. So was I. I wasn't rushed and frazzled. Relaxed, coffee in hand. Even her vaccinations weren't so bad. She cried but calmed down much faster. Had a bottle and off to bed (where she is right now, because I chose home instead of Apple Store!).

It's a great way to get to know your pediatrician, you know the person who takes care of the 4 people I love more than myself! The person I trust to care as much as I do for these little people.

Some things need to be improved on over time, but in home Dr. visits just like the old days work for me!

Of ducks and I phones

Well today could've been a bad day because something BAD happened yesterday. Really bad. Zac and I were at the pond in our neighborhood on a very windy day. We were sitting on a bench feeding the ducks when my stroller flew into the pond. I pulled the stroller out along with Zac's scooter. Everything looked good. A little wet, but fine. We continued to feed the ducks. I kept noticing the ducks looking at some white square thing on the bottom of the pond. I thought hmmm wonder what that is, interesting it catches their attention. We got up to leave and the light bulb went on. It was my Iphone. Yep, the shattered one
I 've been carrying around so I can get the 4G in ONE month. Did I panic. Pretty much. Didn't think I could live without it.

Well, I have survived. I have even decided this doesn't require an emergency trip to the mall (I hate the mall!). In fact, seeing my baby napping peacefully in her bed, instead of dragging her around T-town won out. I do have my priorities right some of the time. So good to know!

Am I a nerd?

I 'm beginning to think so. I never realized what cool things they have at Best Buy and the Apple Store. Just call me a late bloomer. You buy one thing and just follow the trail...

It started with an Ipod and then an Iphone and then an I Mac and now the Apple TV. No more scratched DVDs.  Zac carries them around like stuffed animals you see. This habit is getting out of control! So before I get cut off, you must see the new app I downloaded. It is called Hipstamatic. It's a camera. I love it. So does Hanna.  You will probably see more photos taken with it. Enjoy...

(Ok, pretend like I have make up on here!)

By the way, I know you think I'm really cool because I found this cool app. I'm not. Someone told me about it. They are cool.
