Guess The Song Trivia!!

Okay... I just figured out how to post videos. It's not the best video, (Maddie acts kind of silly when the camera is on her.) But see if you can guess the song that Madelyn is singing.

HINT...It's an oldie but goodie! :)

Can we say... STRESSED OUT!!!

Okay well things are CRAZY right now. The date of Aug 4th , move in day is fast approaching, and our house is no where near ready. There are people waiting to move into where we are now, so moving back our date is not an option. Maybe we will just have to park our camping trailer out in front of the new house and live in there! :( (For those of you who don't realize it, I'm Just joking) I've began packing. I never know what I should pack a week in advanced and I don't want to leave everything till the last minute so I'm packing everything. We are eating off of paper plates and I feel like we are camping out only we are in our own house.

Here are some pictures that I took over the last week or so.


My little cutie! I swear, she gets sweeter and sweeter everyday! It's hard to believe, but by tomorow she will be even sweeter than this!
Madelyn and her best friend. Man they Love eachother!
Some quality bath time with her cousins. In a few months we will be able to stick Delaney in there for some pictures. My babies. Just hanging out.

A Quiet Evening.

I just feel like rambling tonight. Randy is at the new house working late as he does every night. His work ethic amazes me. The girls both fell asleep in the car on the way home from bringing Randy dinner. It was an unexpected surprise. A good one considering I am tired. No 45 minute night time routine. You know, baths, PJ's, brushing teeth, brushing hair, books, songs and prayers. I can just relax.

Well I finally made a choice for my kitchen cabinets. I was down to the wire. I think I may have decision anxiety. You know I want to make sure I am getting the best for my money. Which I think I am. But they are beautiful. I will take pictures of the kitchen when it's all put together. I have pictures of it now, but I fear if I post those you will all think we are crazy. you have to have real vision to see any potential in this house. The house is in total shambles. And we are moving in, in a week and 1/2. I'm sure it will all come together at the last minute as almost all big projects do.

Today I was able to spend the afternoon with one of my dear friends from high school. It is always so much fun to catch up with old friends. We've both changed so much, and are in two totally different stages in our life, but still have fun together. Our conversations have matured a little. They aren't so focused on boys, but rather life in general and each other's own well being. It made me long to be back in those high school days just a little!

Well, it has been HOT lately. The house we are renting now does not have air conditioning. Needless to say, the girls and I are gone by noon every day and don't return till bed time. I love being out and about, however, It has caused me to really neglect my house work. I should get going. I have a pile of laundry that needs folding.

Where did the time go?

Well... I'm sorry It's been so long. I don't know where all the time goes. I suppose I'm not yet used to logging onto the computer in my spare time. Here are just a few pictures.

This is Maddie's Funny face. She does it all the time.


I went to Old Navy and bought the girls matching outfits. There aren't too many places you can find the same outfit in both 3T and 3mns. I love it when they match!

I also tried to use sponge curlers in Maddie's hair, however, she refused to lay down on them that night. She ended up coming into my room at about 11:00 p.m. and saying, " I hate these curlies! " It took me 45 min. to put them in and I had to take them out. Oh well, she sure looked cute.
