I Hope You Dance

                                          "I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
                                      You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger
                                       May you never take one single breath for granted
                                         God forbid love ever leave you empty handed


                               I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
                                    Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
                                    Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
                                    And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

                                                                 I hope you dance


                                  I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
                                          Never settle for the path of least resistance
                               Livin' might mean takin' chances, but they're worth takin'
                                      Lovin' might be a mistake, but it's worth makin'
 

                                         Don't let some Hellbent heart leave you bitter
                                         When you come close to sellin' out, reconsider
                                   Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance
                                      And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

                                                                I hope you dance..."

                     I truely love that both of my girls can't stand still when they hear music!

One of Lindsey's favorite times of the day is bath time, thanks to Nina & Star on the Sprout Channel...she loves to sing the "Washa-Washa" & "Brusha-Brusha" song or at least that's what my sweet Lindsey calls it...can't believe she's almost 21 months already!


                 So much for my "time-out" stool...still works, but along with other things...



Everyone gets their teeth "busha-busha" in our house per Lindsey..


                            And of course...we can't go to bed without a few funny faces!
                                                                     Night-Night.

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...
