Big Girl Bed

As promised, here is a picture of Kamdyn's new Big Girl Bed. Too bad she won't become one of those big girls that should be sleeping in it. Do you sense a little discontent? You should...she is adamant about not going potty on the toilet or anything that resembles a toilet for that matter. So we try every now and again and when it does happen there is a potty party and when it doesn't we take a break and try again a different day. I remember Bailey being stubborn but at least she would try.

Bad Day...

So I am cleaning because I am having visitors this weekend and I find pencil all over my living room wall and my newly painted hallway. Of course Kamdyn confesses with her new word YUP, and she is also willing to take her picture by the evidence. Then I go to the Y for my usual morning workout and alone time and I am interrupted because Kamdyn won't let the caregivers put her down. I go in and she is fine just wanting attention I guess. Then nap time rolls around and I'm thinking this should be a good nap day cuz she is tired, nope not happening. Instead she is in there opening and closing her closet door and disassembling her bed. Later today she decides to unroll the toilet paper so Tom decides to wrap her in it...OMG she was so upset that he wrapped her in it I had to take a picture. So needless to say i didn't get much cleaning done. Better luck tommorrow!
And oh by the way Kamdyn got her ears pierced a few weeks ago I just haven't taken pictures and her bed finally came in so I will take pictures of that too.

Happenings

Bailey had her Girl Scout Thinking day, they had Germany! Thanks to my neighbor who lent us a bunch of stuff since she has been stationed there twice.




We went to Branson, Missouri. We saw the Dixie Stampede show, we went to the dam and the fish hatchery, we went on the Showboat Branson Belle(Bailey got to drive the boat), and we rode some really expensive Go-Karts. Fun was had by all!












Then came Easter. There were baskets, an easter egg hunt, and brunch with the neighbors hosted by me.




Tommorrow night I am going to a cooking class, should be fun!

Got My Swap Cards Today!

I was so excited to get my cards today from my twisted/demented swap....but who made them????? I know the usuals cuz they know to sign them but these newbies gotta learn. It's frustrating when you see a great card, turn it over to see who thought up such a great idea, and see nothing. UGH! Hopefully somebody who knows will help me out here....Please....I love all of them they are great! When is the next swap? I gotta use up my stuff I just ordered for Sale-A-Bration or my husband is gonna cut me off.

FYI

Jenny Updated!!!!!!!!!!!!

Painting....

Instead of spending all my time on here for the last 2 months this is what I have been doing....
Hallway, tan looks better in real life :(
Master Bath, blue

Kamdyn's room, yes, those are Cricket flowers. She is getting a new bed in a couple weeks so I will take a new picture then.

Bailey's room, yes the same color as in GF but with polka dots and a 4 month rainbow

Kitchen and Dining green haha the color is really not this bright I think it was the lighting

This one is for Mandy...

Our family of slippers....

For JJ

Here is a tribute to JJ from Kamdyn, apparently it is a 2 year old thing to line everything up to include paper grocery bags from the store.

Past 2 months in pictures...

Ok here is a quick catch up on what has happened during my blogging strike...
Kamdyn got a horse for Christmas that she won't get off of...

Tom has gotten Kamdyn addicted to scrath off tickets...

Kamdyn has turned into a vegetarian(not really but I made Tom a salad for lunch one day and before he could sit down to eat it Kamdyn had started in on it).

Tom got promoted and I got roses for being his wife...

Bailey went ice skating with her Brownie troop...

Kamdyn made raisin toast all be herself while no one was watching, at least I know she could feed herself if she ever got left alone somehow.

The girls and I built a snowman...

I learned how to rollerskate all over again but sorry there are no pictures. Bailey's school does a fundraiser at the roller rink and I decided to try it, needless to say I was 1 of only 4 or 5 parents that decided to don the pretty skates. It was so much fun we went back the next weekend when Tom got home and we all had a blast. Kamdyn is a very good skater too and cries when it is time to leave.

A little Birdie Told Me.....

...there may be some blogging on here soon so stay tuned. When it rains, it pours. And what's this about a card swap?
