Life of the Busy Family

What's new!

Emma has learned how to give High Fives! So cute! She is needing less and less sleep. I know she is getting older so the two naps are about to go to one. But 6 am this morning she was up and screaming with happiness! Cute now, but not so much at 6.

I have been working like a dog on our master bathroom. The wallpaper in their wasn't bad, but I HATE wallpaper. So almost three weeks ago I started pulling and pulling in down. Just when I would think I was getting somewhere I would find a new layer. Whoever invented wallpaper should be strung UP!!! just kidding but it is horrible. I am going to paint the walls coco brown (dark brown) and do turquiose accents (shower curtain, and towels) I think! Was trying to get it done before Lindsey's shower this saturday. A.......not going to happen!

Still trying to finish shopping for Addie (so excited). I keep saying this is the last thing I am buying but then I buy something else.

My dad and mom are both going to be home this weekend. SO EXCITED! I don't think he realizes how much he is missed, and has missed out on the little ones. But soon he will be home and those little girls will definitly get to hang out with Poppy!

Work is great! I think I have found a way to continue working in LR after the grant is over.

Anyways, Have a great week!

What's new!

What's new!

Emma is too funny! We have a slide in the living room (I know it is supposed to be outside but it is more fun inside) she climbs up the stairs and stands and screams (excited) and then sits down and slides. Sometimes she claps when she gets to the bottom!

In about two weeks she will be 1. It is crazy! Time has really flown! She is having a Luau birthday party (pool party)

We went swimming for the first time yesterday. It was cold at first but as soon as you got in it it was wonderful!! Emma loved it. She was so tired that she had long nap. So I decided to lay out, and fell asleep so I got some sun! I am loving our new house!

THis weekend a couple girls and I had a girls night out. Aaron basically has to make me go do something without Emma. (love being with that girl) We went to Willy'D in Little Rock. It was funny! But a late night.

I am debating on what to get my new niece (Addie) she is coming in about two months. Lindsey is having a baby shower in two weeks. And I don't know what to buy yet. I am thinking a high chair, and I know that I will make Addie a personalized diaper bag. (probably make Evie, and Emma one too so they won't feel left out) Can't wait to go to Hancock Fabrics and look at what cute material they have.

I want to find some dog, and a firefighting material. Since her daddy is a firefighter.

My mom is off again to Texas. It sucks when she leaves, though I know dad needs her. You would think that the gas prices would slow her down. But not yet.

Anyways, That is all for now!

First 5K

So I did it! I successfully did my first 5K. It was really fun!. At one point I thought I am so tired! But when little kids are doing it I knew I had to keep on going. So I finish 31.00 something seconds. Don't remember. Aaron's sister Dana also did it. Though she finished about 2 minutes before me.

My goal was to finish without stopping. I did stop to tie my shoe but that doesn't count. I am signed up to do the DINO DASH. That is in a few weeks. Hoping to do better!

More later! At work and have alot to do!
