Family Fun Night!

One cold, rainy Friday night, we decided to have a family fun night! We ordered some pizza, blew up the air mattress, put it in the living room, and watched Kung Fu Panda!


Just a couple of silly faces...

No, I no care about baby...

On Friday, we went to take dinner to one of our friends that had just had a baby. Riley talked all day about getting to see the new baby. We got to their house and I was holding the baby. Riley came over and was talking to him, tickling his feet, saying he is cute and just loving being able to see him. Meanwhile, Aydia walks up holding a ball and starts talking to me about the ball. After a minute or so of her totally not acknowledging that I was holding a baby, I say, "Aydia, did you see the tiny little baby?" She says, "No, I no care about baby." That girl cracks me up! Totally reassured my thought of her freaking out if we were to have another baby soon!

One of those days...

Today has been one of those days that has totally exhausted me. Usually I have plenty of energy to keep up with my almost 2 year old and almost 3 year old, but man, they wore me out today. It has been one of those days where they have needed me literally every second of the day. Usually they are a little bit more independent...at least a little during the day! I have constantly had to say things like, "Don't kick the..." and "don't take that away from your sister", "don't throw a fit", "don't, don't, don't, don't..."! Some days, I wonder what is going through my kids brains! Phew, such is the life of a mom! I love them even with days like this though!

On a better note, today we went to Big Lots to let the girls pick out a gift for one of their friends that is having a bday party on saturday and I was cracking up at Riley. It is just so hilarious how kids don't care what people think of them or are not worried that they may look silly or people may stare at them! When I was checking out, Riley was jumping up and down saying, "Yooo-hooo-hooo" over and over and over! This is not an uncommon experience for me to have, but today for some reason, I just got a kick out of it. Tons of people were watching her and she had NO clue they were watching and obviously didn't even care! It was pretty hilarious!

Give away...

Go check out (Mostly) Natural Momma for a giveaway!

Hippie town...

I went to the thrift store to buy some frames for my kitchen and 2 of them I found had the original picture in them! I thought about hanging it up in my house somewhere and making up some story about how those are my grandparents or something, but I refrained...I don't make things up very well...I just start laughing! Check it out!

Kitchen painted...

Here is our kitchen all painted and some stuff hung on the walls. We still need to stain the cabinets (soon) and do the floors and counters (after the cabinets) and then eventually, new appliances, but that will be a while...long while! Just having it painted helps it look a lot better. Some of the pics look really dark and yellowish, but it really is not dark like that, don't really know what happened!~
