Mini Paleontologist

My 4 year old daughter knows many kinds of dinosaurs and can tell you a few facts about each. The most amazing thing about this kid is how MUCH she knows about them! She can look at a picture of what some may think is a Tyrannosaurus Rex, and analyze how it is NOT a T-Rex.
We went to Albuquerque last month and came across a dinosaur statue. She initially yelled out, "Look a Tyrannosaurus!" then stopped and examined it for a minute. "No this has to be an Albertosaurus. It has short arms and two fingers like a T-Rex but it is much shorter and skinnier than one. So it must be an Albertosaurus."

After we took a picture next to it I looked at the description of the dinosaur that was next to the statue. Sure enough, it was an Albertosaurus. She never ceases to amaze me how intelligent this kid is.

It's an odd feeling when your child outsmarts you on something. It's ESPECIALLY odd when they are only 4...

New and Improved...again?

Hello!
In the last year lots have changed: I went to school to become a Nail Technician, graduated and now have an awesome job that I start on Friday!  Also my little miss has become obsessed with everything on this planet (as well as outside it). She particularly is focused on all things dinosaur and space related. This is why I created the new page on the blog called "Planet Earth"  where I will share facts, pictures, etc about her obsessions.
The second page I created is for me to share my recipes that I currently use, and ones that I would like to try or have recently tried. I love baking (cooking is starting to grow on me) and love sharing recipes!
Bare with me as I get back into my blogging gear again and stay tuned for some excellent posts.

Have a wonderful day!

Blessings

I have so much to be thankful for in my life. I have an awesome job where I get to bring my daughter along with me, I have a great husband who is patient and a great example to me, I have a beautiful child who amazes me everyday, I have clothes,shoes, food, cars, and a lovely home. Seriously I never should complain! Seeing as I am a human being I do complain (I guess that means my husband isn't human then) a lot more than I should. So today I am reflecting on my wonderful life and wanted to share some awesome quotes I found on Pinterest (my favorite website ever).

and last of all:

Just kidding on the last one. I just thought it was awesome and seriously thinking of making one of these.

Overall just be happy and remember that you are good enough, strong enough and brave enough to endure whatever comes your way. 

Have a wonderful day!
