With our house for sale, we’ve been trying to talk up all the wonderful things about us moving to another house! I asked KB to make a list of the things she wanted for our next house, and here it is. 🙂 This is just SO her (note her #1 most important thing for our new house)! It may not be MY taste, exactly, but I’ll do my best to…

Barbie Suffers Tragic Accident Yesterday.
The nude body of our beloved friend Barbie was recovered today, along with a small fishing boat, after an apparent drowning. Barbie’s connection to the capsized boat was unclear. Foul play was suspected. A suspect was quickly apprehended and questioned regarding both incidents. The suspect only had these few words to say about the matter: “No no, *Baby A*, that not nice.” Then later, “Barbie bath. *Baby A* mess.” The…

*FiNaLLy………LaNDSCaPiNG!!!*
Whew…..we’re tired! We’ve spent the past two days digging and pruning and setting out plants, in preparation for the Azalea Trail starting this weekend!! Well, actually, I have to admit I’m not nearly as tired as BF and his friend Paul; I had childcare duty today, which makes landscaping on a semi-busy street semi-IMPOSSIBLE….so I had to leave most of the work to them today. Its going to require at…

Baby A’s Dot-Dots
This is probably one of those things that only a mom could appreciate, but this just cracks me up! Every Saturday morning, BF gets both girls a bag of donut holes (or “dot-dots,” as Baby A calls them) for a special treat for breakfast. She carefully removes one dot-dot at a time from her little white bag, and takes ONE bite out of each one. Not just a normal bite…

*GUESS* Who Was Artist of the Week??
Her fabulous work of art was chosen to be displayed in the cafeteria this week! I am SO proud of her and her Butterfly art! We happened to run into her art teacher at Hobby Lobby this weekend, and she told us what an HONOR it is to have your art chosen, out of the hundreds of kids in the whole school! I can’t wait to get this home so…

*DiSCo NiGHT*
We just love KB’s school! They have *SO* many fun events …. the latest one, Disco Night! They had tons of games, prizes & goodie bags, face painting, and of course DANCING! And, it doesn’t hurt that her school is a block from the best guacamole in town ~ Don Juan’s, so we *HAVE* to go eat there with our Caldwell friends before every school function. Here are some pics…

Our Office Obsession
OK, I have a confession…… we are addicted to this show!! Personally, I’m not much of a tv watcher, and would really lean more toward just not even having tv at all, especially since we cancelled HGTV and the Cooking Channel (what else IS there, worthwhile, on tv??) ~ but BF, now, that’s a different story. I once turned my back on him for a second at an appliance store,…

My Kindergarten Girl
I’ve finally stopped crying my eyes out every single day because my baby started kindergarten….yes, I know its January, and it took me 1/2 a year….but I can finally handle posting some pics. We love her new school….her teacher….her new friends…..her exciting new experiences……I’m thrilled with the big kid she’s becoming! But I can’t help get a little sad that the past 6 years flew by so fast and wish…

Where are the PICTURES??
This whole blog was supposed to be about progress on our little house project, since almost daily people ask me, “How’s the house coming?” I wanted to be able to point people HERE to see for themselves how hard we’re working! Well ~ I found a little home improvement contest that I want to enter, and I think we SHOULD after the 3 years of torture that we’ve lived through…
