New Year

New Year means great possibilities!

So it is a new year and there are plans being made! Plans of healthier lifestyles and more family time.   Plans of making memories and keeping them.  I am the worst at remembering things so I plan to write more down and take more pictures. 

Here is the first! I asked Kels to make her bed.  Once the mounds of stuffed animals were placed on the bed, I kindly asked if we could giveaway a few to good homes in order to make room for her to sleep.  Her answer? Just to lay upon them! Of course!

Stitch Fix help??

Image
I have broken down and done it.  I have signed up for my very first Stitch Fix.  My normal shopping routine consists of me running to the store to look for some clothes for one or both of my girls, and by chance picking up something for myself.  Trying it on?? What is that? I usually try to at least determine if it will fit in a round about way. On a rare occasion, I will actually have a moment without the girls and I try to fit in all my needed shopping all in one store shopping. I am skeptical about the Stitch Fix program.  Just like I am about most things.  I finally decided to try it.  I left pretty detailed explanations to my stylist about me.  I set up a Pinterest board ( see it here ) for her to refer to.  I told her I wanted inexpensive pieces to add to my current wardrobe.  If when the clothes come I don't like any of them, I can return them easily in the prepaid shipping bag.  So my experience could be wonderful and I end...

Ok, I get it...it's been a while

So, we have had a while since we talked.  We have been busy.  In fact, just now, I tried to start this post while watching a pre-recorded movie, listening to a oil class online, waiting for the kids to fall asleep, and having an adult beverage.  Just so you know, that does not work well.  I had to cut out a few things.  Kelsey and Cadie have changed so much since my last post.  Cadie is 3 and Kelsey is 6.  Kels just finished Kinder....wait did I just say that? I like to say that they are the best of friends at times and the worst of enemies at other times.  It is like each knows the buttons of the other.  Kels can not stand to be told multiple times the same thing and yet Cadence just seems to push that button hourly!  Cadie is my favorite morning girl! She has gotten into the routine of coming into our room at 5:30 (in the summer.....) and crawl into bed with us.  She insist on sharing my pillow because her dad's isn't good enough...

A pure sense of Adventure!

Ok, so now that Kelsey is over 18 months we have decided to really try to start potty training. All you moms out there please send helpful words and ideas! We have been slowly getting her used to the idea for the past few months. I realized when I woke up to her handing me her diaper that we may be ready....By the way...not a good way to wake up in the morning! At least is was just wet not anything worse. And no there have been no paintings of poop on the walls of her crib...yes I have heard horror stories from friends and family. I'll keep you posted on how things go with this. We are trying a few methods including the M&Ms method from Kelsey's Nannie. Say some extra prayers for us! It just amazes me how Kelsey has no fear of most things. A dog could be barking in her face and she wants to hug him. She always is so assured that someone will catch her if she falls or be there to comfort if she gets hurt. Doesn't that make you want to have that kind of assurance all the ...
