Oops...

I can't quite get back on track after my fun weekend getaway! It isn't like we partied or went out drinking. I didn't sleep well the night before I left, and then I had to get up at 5 am to get ready for my flight that morning. Then, we also had to get up at 5 to head to Round Top on Saturday morning. We were some TRUE shoppers getting up that early. Shopping from 9 to 5. Traveling. I guess that is what did it to me.

So, I head to pick Ashton up from school on Monday afternoon, and we are all standing around talking and waiting for school to get out. One of the Moms says something about "I wonder how pictures went today?". WHAT? WHAT PICTURES? Yep. I messed up and completely didn't even know that it was picture day (which is so not like me)!

So, Ashton had her Princess shirt on with some sweat-type shorts and pigtails. Hmmmm. I guess we will be doing make-ups next month! Way to go, Mom!

I do it myself!

Reese was trying to take her pj's off to get dressed the other day, and she wouldn't let me help her at all. She said "I do it myself!". Little Miss Independent! I think that is so funny because my Mom tells stories of me saying that when I was little! I couldn't resist taking some pictures of her trying SO HARD to get the darn pj's off! FINALLY, she did it!

Let's Play...

While the Daddies were at the Delt Hunting Trip, we met Monda & Jonah for a playdate! We picked up some breakfast at Sonic & headed to the park to play! It was great weather, and we had a lot of fun!!

Birthday Fun!

Our neighbors are having their daughter, Channing's 4th birthday party at Jungle Gym today, and she wanted a "4" shirt to wear with leggings and a tutu! So, I was the lucky one that got to make her shirt! I think it turned out pretty darn cute! I can't wait to see her in it!


Then, I was feeling very ambitious as I shopped a little last minute for the birthday gift last night! Channing loves mermaids! So, Ashton actually found this fun little mermaid for the bath!


So.... I decided it would be so cute to make a bath towel to go with her gift! I obviously wasn't thinking how LONG it would take to make. Wow, that was A LOT of work...especially with Johnny out of town! It sure is cute though! I hope that she LOVES it!!

Stir Crazy

We are getting a little stir crazy around here. Reese and I have stayed home all week because I have not felt so well. I have been congested and coughing. Probably just a sinus infection. I went to a Room Parent meeting on Wednesday morning, and Johnny called me on the way to drop Reese off at school and said that she was acting like she didn't feel well. I got home and she seemed to be acting tired and a little congested. Then, she perked up and was full of energy by 9:30!

Ashton has had the same thing for about a week now, and she just started complaining of a sore throat last night. So, I took her to the dr today, and she has a sinus infection. Thank goodness for an antibiotic! It drives me crazy when it is viral, and you just have to "wait it out"! The girls did also get the flu mist while we were at the doctor too so it was nice to get that out of the way!!

I am so ready to have energy and get out of the house! This weather is too perfect. I am planning to drop Ashton and Reese off in the morning, meet the Moms from Reese's class at Starbuck's for some coffee & get a manicure and pedicure....Just a little "me time" is just what I need.

Oh please, let it all go as planned...

Ironic

I have been trying to find Halloween costumes for the girls since they seem to sell out of the good ones early! Not sure what Reese is going to be yet, but Ashton wants to be a Princess! I asked her what she wants to wear and she said a dress and a crown! Don't you think that is just a little ironic since she WILL NOT wear dresses or skirts AT ALL right now. I even try to get her to wear them with leggings by saying that it is a long top, and it doesn't seem to fly with her! Off to find a pink princess DRESS...

Another day at school...

Reese was excited to wear her school shirt today! I even added a little bling to make it look a little more girly...which she said was "cool"! So, how much longer do I have to wait until she is waving goodbye and excited when we walk in the door of school? I don't think that it took Ashton more than a day or two? I guess it helped that she started in January, and noone else was crying.

TGIF!!! So ready to wake up a little later than 6! PLEASE let the girls sleep in the morning!! Have a good weekend!!
