Five Question Friday
Hop on over to Mama M's blog to join in!
1. If you had $1000 to to donate to one charity which would you choose?
It would probably be between The Bell Center, a neat little organization called the Prosthetics Outreach Foundation, or to a coworker of mine who goes on mission trips to Swaziland every year.
2. Snow days: do you welcome them happily or are they a pain in the butt?
I absolutely LOVE snow days. The only problem is that here in Alabama we have snow days when there is only an inch or so of snow which actually isn't really that much fun to play in.
3. What talent do you wish you had and why?
I wish I could sing. I love to sing and I love music but I have horrible voice!
4. Are you a news, politics, or celebrity news junkie?
I am a news and politics junkie. I can't stand celebrity news. It's so stupid and dramatic and no big deal if it was about a non-celebrity.
5. What is your favorite cocktail?
I love long island iced teas!

Belliisms 8
Belli outside waving goodbye to my mom yells for the whole neighborhood to hear: "Bye bye Mimi! Bye bye! HEY! Hey MIMI. I JUST FELL DOWN AND HURT MY TUSH!!!!!"
Belli: Look mom. We have a new ornament on the tree.
Me: I know! It's so pretty.
Belli: What is?
Me: The ornament.
Belli: What ornament.
Me: ......
"We have summer, we have fall, we have winter and we have sprinkles!"
After letting out a huge trucker burp Belli looks at me with wide eyes and says, "Was that YOU?"
"Hey mom, when I hold you are you going to turn into a hippo?"
So weird...I know.

Belliisms 7
Time for the 7th installment of Belliisms...
While hanging out with my dad Belli asked him what was on his wrist. He said, "A watch." She looked at it for about thirty seconds and then said, "I watched. What it do?"
Belli yelling from the bathroom: "Umm...HELLO!?! Someone went poooootty! It was ME. ISABELLE!"
My mom was watching the video of Belli reading Llama Llama Misses Mama. Belli walked up, looked at the video and said, "I like her. She's cute."
While Belli was walking around the living room I brought her lunch in and put it down on her table and told her to sit down and go eat. She started yelling, "Mommy, mommy help!" I asked her what she needed help with and she said, "I need help sitting! I just CANT stop walking!"
The other day my dad asked her where she was ticklish. Belli thought about it for a second and then said, "Hmm...probably from that door over to the bed."

Five Question Friday
Be sure to visit Mama M to join in the fun!
1. What Christmas song do you loathe?
The question should really be which Christmas song do I not loathe? Ok, ok I'll quit being a grouch now. I don't really like any Christmas song sung by a well known singer or group. Like I would rather hear a choir sing Christmas songs or just orchestra music.
2. Do you and your significant other cuddle at night or sleep on opposite sides of the bed?
I don't have a significant other =-( Hopefully one day I will have a cuddle buddy though!
3. Have you ever had surgery?
Yep. I birthed Belli straight out of my stomach.
4. When do you typically have your holiday shopping done?
Normally around the 23rd. If I don't have it by then oh well! No way you can make me get out on Christmas Eve.
5. If money wasn't an issue what would your ultimate luxury item be?
Tickets to the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio.

Llama Llama Misses Mama
*Update*
Mama M suggested I submit this to her holiday gift guide blog hop. This weeks theme is children's books so the goes well with it. Feel free to join it!
Have any of you heard of the Llama Llama books? If not I HIGHLY recommend them. We only have one and I only just realized yesterday that it was a whole series but I will definitely be getting the rest of them for Belli for Christmas. The one we have is Llama Llama Misses Mama. We read it every day before nap time and every night before bed. Well last night Belli told me she wanted to read it instead. And she did. Word for word, every single last bit. Except obviously she didn't actually read it she just memorized it. I didn't get a video last night but I had her do it again today. She didn't do it as well but it's still pretty impressive for a three year old if you ask me. Here is the video!
