Sleep Over With Laila

A few weeks ago we had our niece Laila over for a sleepover just like we did with her sister Jezelle. We had been wanting to have a sleepover with her for the longest time and we finally decided to do it. We picked her up on a Saturday and went grocery shopping at walmart for over an hour and she was a perfect angel!! Hunter and I  had three or four different people come up to me at walmart telling me how she had my eyes or that she looks just like me. It was crazy how many people came up to me or Hunter and said that. Since she was so good we thought we would let her pick a treat.

 

 

Then we went to our apartment and she was so excited to see where we lived and of course the minute we walked in the door she asked if she could put her "princess" on. She probably goes through 10 different dresses a day. We watched five different barbie movies (Hunter LOVED it ;) he is well prepared for a daughter one day. haha ) Then Hunter and Laila made cupcakes together.

 

 

Then I made none other than mac and cheese for dinner!! I swear its the only thing Laila will eat all the way gone and want even more. After dinner we went to an Orem Owlz game.. we were lucky cause that night they were giving out free gum ball machines and soup ladels. We found out the reason why they were giving away soup ladels was because the guy throwing the first pitch was the soup natzi from an episode of seinfield. I'd never heard of it before but I've never watched seinfeld but apparently it is a really popular epidsode. Laila was so excited that she got stuff from the game and I could not get over how good she was at the game. She didn't whine or anything. The whole time she was singing "Call me, maybe?" the whole time and everyone around us just kept looking at her and saying how cute she is.

 

 

She is such a cheese ball. Haha :)

 

 

 

 

We took probably 10 pictures with her and Hunter and all of them turned out like this :)

 



 

And only took one picture with me and she did good :)

 

 

Then we went home and saw our neighbors cat perri. Laila was in love with her and would not leave her alone. By the time we were about to leave perri was on the floor panting like a dog. We looked through their kids movies and we let Laila pick the movie (since Hunter was sick of watching and hearing Barbie songs)  and she pick "Spickle Me!!" otherwise known as "Despicable Me" we couldn't stop laughing whenever she said that it was so cute. We went back down to our apartment and pulled our mattress in the living room and got the bed ready and we walked out of the room for two seconds and heard Laila yelling. We went back into the room and she was jumping up and down on the bed yelling, "Spickle me!! Spickle Me!! Spickle Me!!" we just laughed so hard. We were suprised she didn't say anything about going home so we figured we would say something. So we said Laila do you want to go home and she started screaming no I want to stay at your house. I don't want to go home. That made us feel pretty good :)

We made it about half way through the movie and fell asleep and woke up a few hours later to get ready for church. Hunter started cooking breakfast which was mickey mouse pancakes and I woke Laila up to get her ready for church :) after we were all dressed we had mickey mouse pancakes and walked to church! Everyone in our ward LOVED her to pieces! We had people sitting behind us give her fruit snacks and other treats the whole time.

 

 

 

After church we went home and got changed and headed off to take Laila back home. The whole time she kept asking if she was going home and then would start crying so we said we were going on a drive up to the mountains. The rest of the ride she said we are going to the mountains not to mommy's house right? It was so funny until we pulled into her house and she started crying saying she didn't want to leave. It was such a fun weekend and we can't wait to have her over for another sleep over!! :) To this day everytime we see her she says she wants to have a sleep over at our house.. again!
