SNOW 2012!!

Feb 20, 2012...1st chance to play in the snow...1st snow of the year!  Just wish I didn't have to work.  Hailey and Lindsey had fun at Pop & Mimi's in the snow.  Sledding and making a snow man, they put their creativity into good use...

And when I got off from work, Hailey wanted me to go "sledding" with her...bad idea!  I haven't been on a sled in a loooong time and especially after the snow had iced over, then making the decision to slide down my parents hill in the same track they made earlier...well, it just wasn't smart...we'll leave it at that.  BUT, noone got hurt, thank goodness!

                                Before the Crash: Happy & Excited!



                                Riding...rather fast on ICE!: Trying to slow down...


                                The Crash:  :(.... Realizing that was not a good idea!

                                Scrapes & "I'm Sorry's" to a precious 5  year old...

But... "Frosty"(as Lindsey say's "Frossy") the Snowman makes everyone feel better!  I love Hailey's idea of the leaves for the ears & hair...or hat, either way, it was creative!

(and my dad was a great photographer!)

Finalized! ~ Hailey's Ballerina Bedroom Redo

I am totally singing the  HALLELUJAH CHORUS !  After months of contemplating Hailey's bedroom redo and realizing after I started that this was harder than expected with tons of DIY projects...it's DONE!!   Well, at least for now.  Possible that I will continue with cosmetic procedures later, but for now...here it is... Just a walk down memory lane... even though it's totally embarrassing with overflow of clutter in which I strongly dislike... Oh my...look at the bedskirt, lol!  Felt a tad bit sorry for Lindsey who thought she belonged with her favorite stuffed animals in the hammock.... But anyway, after painting her walls pink and hand painting sillhouettes of ballerinas...it was on!  I have been so greatful that God placed the perfect people in my path to finish Hailey's room with one of the Dance mom's, Jenna Pratt who exchanged a ballerina comforter set plus pillows and curtains for a video baby monitor...absolutely perfect! ...

1st Day of Fall 2012

What can I say, other than the 1st day of fall is absolutely beautiful! (even though my girls want to watch Christmas movies today).  Hailey isn't feeling very well, but managed to play outside and enjoy the weather for a little while...and of course get a few pics of the kiddos with our glamorous glittering pumpkins...so girly! Some other accomplishments this week...Hailey read the bedtime story 2 nights ago...might have been a "Dick & Jane" book, but mommy was so proud! Lindsey has taken on "spitting" which we are trying to break!  She also gets a big kick out of putting her mouth on mine or Chris' belly and blowing, followed by, "I pooted!!"  Yep, I think she might be our tomboy...  Hailey had the best attempt at getting Lindsey to try to stop spitting by saying, "Lindsey! Stop spitting or you're going to turn into a BOY!!"  Lindsey responded, "Oh noooo!" with her hands on her cheeks and hasn't att...

Bible lesson & Haircuts!

 Hailey had a VERY hard time with her decision to get a hair cut...especially after learning about Samson(in the Bible)!  She wants to be as strong as Samson & remembers that he lost his strength when Delilah cut his hair.  I had to make a promise to her that she would not loose her strength...but that it is healthy to trim your hair...thus, it will make it grow longer!  Glad she takes to Bible very literally though.... Kristen did a great job & Hailey liked her hair!  After her hair cut...she asked Kristen & I to feel her "bones," as she sticks out her arm.  "Wow! You are soooo strong!" we said.  Hailey was thrilled!
