Okay so not really.

But Jennifer thinks I am so right now we are going to pretend that she's right!

I'm brilliant and so therefore I have received the "Brilliant Weblog Award"!

Get excited folks - this is big stuff!

Then I have to choose 7 bloggers who I feel are BRILLIANT (see list below) and I give them the award.

Eye Lashes & Meltdowns

Sophia was outside all day today playing and didn't want her hair pulled back. Of course, I love it all down and had to take some pictures.

I would pay for beautiful eye lashes like this
She looks so innocent and sweet
Funny how she knows when I get the camera out to pose
Well until she don't get her way...This is how it starts..

And then this
oh yeah, and then this
And this and realizing she is not getting her way. She wanted to brush the dog who just got a bath and the dog was not having it.
Calming down
Distracted with something else

I love this little girl so much

Just about had enough picture taking
Yep, Enough!

Playing after the rain..

I think Sophia is a natural beauty, but her innocence amazes me. Everything she does, just brings a smile to her face. This is her playing after the rain..

Playing with the color again

Look who visited Sophia today!

Abby and Her Mommy & Daddy visited us today!

You can visit Abby's Blog at:

Of course the pictures are out of sorts but they are close...

Here are the girls modeling their favorite Summer attire and Sophia is giving Abby her Dora Bubbles

Look at that precious face
Kisses
Don't you just wanna eat her up?
Playing!
Mommy and Sophia in the pool

Abby was playing with Frankie
Besties floating in the Giraffe Float
Friends and daughters
Hands full of precious!
Sophia getting ready to melt down because she didn't want to share Frankie with Abby

Headed to the swings
Sweet Abby
Kisses again!
Abby was playing with Frankie again, I got her on the move

But I got her waving this time.

Friends
Almost both of them smiling

Little closer

Sophia wasn't looking and Abby was laughing and looking at Frankie, but maybe Leslie got a better picture?


We had a FANTASTIC time with Abby, Leslie and Ken today! Thank you for making the trip and spending the day with us, Can't wait to do it again soon.

Abby is a real joy and I know her and Sophia will be great friends just like their mommies!
