RuPaul Who?

I'm sure you wouldn't be shocked to learn Macy Walker is quite the showman ... or is it show-woman, I don't know? Either way, she ain't afraid of puttin' on the ritz! In October, I took Macy to a fashion show. I'm not talkin' bout some stand up in a store & model show, I'm talkin' bout a full fledged catwalk with perfect runway beats to snap those quick-steppin' legs to. Big tousled up hair & crazy make-up--THAT kind of fashion show! Since Macy's the kind of girl who'll wear her fanciest dress with cowboy boots to the pond, dig up dirt, chase boys and give 'em a good wallop with her pea-sized fist and then ask if she looks pretty while I'm picking the grass from her hair because she's rolled down the hill ... I wasn't sure how this supermodel, runway fashion show would fair with her.

I've learned in the months following the fashion show she wasn't really all that impressed with the styles, what that girl was impressed with was the strut! Every since October, we've been forced to blast Lady Gaga-like songs so she can sashay around the house in quick-step, pronounced knee bend model form. Oh yes, there's a pause, hip pop, pivot, turn at the "end" of the runway ... believe that!

She's gotten SO talented at producing her one woman shows, she's incorporated us into her activities. We oblige. I mean hey, why not? Right? She's even gone as far as having fashion shows during family gatherings. Our latest show took place on Thanksgiving. My brother-in-law who's a high school wrestling coach along with one of his former wrestlers whom now wrestles at OU participated in the "Fall 2009 Macy's Day Fashion Show" and lemme tell you folks .... RuPaul ain't got nothin' on these boys! ;)

Enjoy!

I Can Hardly Believe It

If you're a parent, you know exactly what I'm saying here ... where the heck does time go?!? See that pic right there to the left? That's Macy Renee when she was 5 months old now she's five months shy from seven years old.

She sure was cuter than the dickens here ... Well, ha ... not that anything's changed if I must say so myself but ya' know ;) What I wanna' know is why on God's green earth did I refuse to cut that sweet baby's hair? Poor kid had a combover at 5 months old!

No Shanks Allowed!

Macy Walker lost her 5th tooth last night, yes count them ... Five! (Yes, that's Macy's writing, done without prompting--"THIS IS MY 5th TOOTH".) There was one slight problem though, the tooth fairy FORGOT --Gasp! How dare she?!?--Macy was quick to visit my bedside at the crack of dawn, whispering in her delightful voice while holding up what the tooth fairy should've retrieved and rolling her eyes, "the tooth fairy must've forgotten!" and then letting out a sigh of disappointment followed with another whispered "but it's your birthday so I'm gonna let you go back to sleep." Awwwwe how sweet and to think that hussy of a lady, "the tooth fairy" forgot her!

Well, rest assured I was quickly reminded ohhh, four times throughout the day about the forgetful fairy. By the end of the day, I was certain she'd go to sleep with a homemade shank just waiting for that rotten absent minded old bat, the "the tooth fairy" but you can see, nothing but sweetness awaited her. ;)
