Razorfest 2012

There has been a lot of hype over the Razorback football team the past few weeks and Razorfest and the spring football game were no exception!  Flint took Cilla this year to Razorfest and I met up with them a little late.  They had a big ole time!  What a difference a year makes.  Last year Cilla was overwhelmed by the mass amount of people and wanted to be carried the entire time.  This year was quite the opposite.  Little Miss was ready to go and do it all!  The monstrous bounce houses did not stop her.  She climbed right up and slid right down and then wanted to cut to the front of the line and do it all over again!

.....and because everything this child wears should have pink in it......we had to find a RED and PINK outfit for the occasion!!!

The morning started with pancakes per Cilla's request.  Daddy and Poppa were her breakfast dates.

I told you the bounce houses didn't phase her!

 All smiles!

Daddy's little Razorback.  

It was a fun treat to see some of our friends.  Cilla loves her Stella!  And I love that her arm is around Stella's neck...literally!  They are such sweet little friends and they have so much fun together.

Cilla also got to see another one of her besties, Anna Kate!  She loves Anna Kate.  A LOT!  She is such a lover.  Her friends hold such a special place in her heart and she is so loyal to them!  I love that about her!

Marci tried to get Anna Kate to go down the big slide with her, but Anna Kate bailed.  So, Cilla was there to step in without any hesitation!

Such a fun day!

Wooo Pig Sooie

It is here, it is finally here!!!

We love the Arkansas Razorbacks at our house and we were super duper excited to kick off football season on Saturday.  

Flint went to Texas to see the Baylor game and the LSU game (double yay for both of their wins!!!)  My parents came to town for the Razorback game and Nana  graciously volunteered to let me use her ticket so she could stay with Cilla!

We tried to get a pic before leaving for the game, but somebody (not gonna name any names) was not having any of it!  

 This was the biggest smile we could get out of her...she was trying to lock her Momma, her Nana and her Poppa outside.  Little Stinker!!!

This sight just gives me chill bumps.  I love walking down the hill and seeing our stadium fill up with rowdy fans.

 My dad's tickets are on the front row and although some may not prefer this for watching the game, no doubt you are right in the action.

Never a Dull Moment

This week has been crazy and busy and busy and crazy! 

We have been on the go.  Unfortunately, I did a horrible job of taking pictures.  But, I have a few to share and I have a couple of stories that I have to document because I simply can't forget them!

Friday we had a little play date.  My friends Lindsey, Katie and Candice came over so our four crazy two year olds could run off a little energy!  Did they ever!!!  It was a riot to watch them run and squeal and knock each other over the head with toys!  Sound like fun?!?!  In the mean time, Flint was at a Razorback football luncheon and according to the guys it was a lot of fun and we {the girls} should go next year!

  So, back to my house.  As nap time rapidly approached our friends started leaving so I turned on "Mickey" in my bedroom as a last ditch effort to get Cilla to sit still and calm down before her nap time.  Great idea, right?  Wrong.  Here is where the story gets a little gross.  *Disclaimer: I don't normally put this kind of grossness out there for everyone to read, but since I use this blog to document our life as the Harris family, I feel like I have to document the good, the bad and the ugly.  And this will go down in the books as "The Ugly!"  Back to the story.  I was picking up and chatting with one of my mommy friends, Candice whose hubbie was also at the luncheon with Flint, when little Laci comes marching into the living room looking for some toilet paper.  {You can probably guess where this is going.}  Candice immediately ran into my bedroom, to find the bio-hazard zone.  Cilla had a "dirty" diaper halfway off and "poo" was smeared all over my bed and upon closer observation all over both girls!!!  WHAT. IN. THE. HECK?!?!  Seriously, next year I am going to the football luncheon!!!

After fumigating the room, hosing down the girls and about four loads of laundry things were back to normal.  Or as normal as normal can be!  We bravely had Laci and her mommy over again tonight while the daddies were busy drafting their football teams.

We were off to a good start by making chocolate chip cookies!  

And all was going well until the tots disappeared out to the deck and the mommies were in the kitchen cleaning up the cookies and making dinner.  They reappear COVERED in sunscreen.  Yep, that's right!  It is ALL over both girls.  ALL over the deck.  ALL over everything in the line of fire!  These two are NUTS!

Are we seeing a reoccurring trend, besides the fact that they need constant supervision?!?!  I am pretty sure these two will be in lots of trouble together over the years.  Heaven help us!

Like I said, never a dull moment!  Never!

Are you Ready for Some Football?!?!

We love football season at the Harris house!  Let me rephrase that.  We pretty much live and breath football all fall and pretty much wait the entire rest of the year for it to start back up.  At least Flint does.  I just love football.

Here are some of the lovlies I have found to help make game day complete!

Time is ticking away.  Hurry and enter the Giveaway for one of two items from Gameday Girl Stuff!

TV and Modeling: Fail

My college friend and Tri Delt sister, Randi has recently launched a website called Passionately Rivalicious.  Her stuff is all things college gameday and beyond!  They carry some really really cute stuff for the littles and for the grown fans!  

Passionaltely Rivalicious was invited to do a feature on UATV and they were wanting kids to model their outfits in order to get pictures for their site.

I was beyond honored that Randi approached me about Cilla and I being a part of this.  However, we are at a stage right now that groups and uncertainty overwhelm our little munchkin.  So, I hesitantly agreed but not without warning Randi!

Well, she may have been sorry she asked us to take part because Cilla was in rare form and did little to participate.  I knew when she didn't have an afternoon nap, it was going to be BAD!  But, I couldn't back out, I didn't want to let my friend (if she will still be my friend) down!!!

At first they asked Cilla to wear a tutu outfit and that was a no go.  She refused.  Threw a fit.  Made a scene.  Embarrassed me.  You get the idea.  So we found something a little more accommodating  but still cute!  After she was finally dressed, all she wanted for me to do was hold her.  Perfect for getting pictures and being on TV, right?!?!

She finally settled in and became a little more comfortable and decided to cooperate...just a tiny bit.  By the time it was time to be on TV she did pretty good.

By the end of the night she was really good!!!  Randi brought iced cookies from Rick's to reward all the little ones and Cilla was in hog heaven!  Here is a little video of her eating her cookie!

 So, Randi called and asked if Cilla would be up for a mini photo shoot before heading off to school the next morning.  I, once again, hesitantly agreed.  We got a few pictures this time around.  Not the best, but we got some.  You can't have too high of expectations when dealing with a nineteen month old.

Be sure and check out Passionately Rivalicious!  You will not be disappointed.
