Nap..

I need a nap! I can't go to sleep early...way too much to do..but a nap would be GREAT! Today is Tuesday...and payday! Yea...until you pay all the bills : |    At least the are all paid! I HATE that Johnny gets paid the SAME day he goes to work for the week..stupid! We got up at 6am got Kaity up and ready for school and her STAAR test! {She went to sleep at 9pm....WAY SUPER EARLY for her!} Got her to school,  came home got some laundry started for J to take to work, then cleaned out the car, picked up the house some more, went to Bastrop and looked at DOGS :) We fell in love with a chocolate lab, but he was a little too hyper for little Kyndi, and then there was a smaller chocolate lab that we loved, but she doesnt get along with other girls doggies...so she was out. We found a few more but we are going to wait and go next weekend and take Maggie so we KNOW they will get along! After that we went to Wal-Mart...YUCK...spent too much money {as usual}..but I did get a super awesome clothes rack for the sewing room that I am pretty excited about. {oh, and a new mop}  Then we went to pick Kaity up from Aunt Kay's house and found out that she fell ASLEEP during the test! Ugg. Oh course the night that she gets some GOOD sleep she is tired all day! She gets that from me! The more sleep I get the more tired I am the next day! Anyways...then we came home to get Daddy ready to leave for the week :(

 Kaity Planting her flowers :)
 She for sure got her green thumb from her Nana!
 Kyndall wanted to help too!
 Even Maggie had a good afternoon outside :)
 She thinks this is funny....
 Then Draculaura stole my chair!
 This is why I don't usually let Daddy approve her school clothes :/  Should have checked this morning!!
Bye daddy! :(

Now it's time to get the girls dinner done and I have a sewing room to finish cleaning!!! 
Happy Birthday MiMi!
Sunday {April 22nd}

We went to the Kovar picnic on Sunday for MiMi's  :)rd birthday! It was super good food! The girls had a BLAST running around also.

THANKFUL

As I sit at the table saying over and over..PLEASE go to bed...please lay down...please stop jumping on the couch...STOP sitting on the cat...get in YOUR own bed...I am THANKFUL. I know that there are thousands of parents that would LOVE to be able to tell their children all of those things! I am sitting at the table making a BIG BOW for a little girl names Avery {Learn about precious Avery HERE} She is 5 months old and has recently learned that she has something called SMA, she is a very funny little girl, and VERY smart...she must be to write her own blog :)   To wear a BIG bow was on her Bucket List, and well that is something I CAN help her with :) 


Here is Avery's Bow...and I went ahead and made a dress too :)


I also am THANKFUL for my husband! As I know that there are also many wives that would love to be sitting annoyed that their children are STILL up because they are waiting on their daddy to come home {please HURRY 10:30!} I cannot imagine anything ever happening to him! In June we will have been together for 11 years, and in May married for 9! NOT many people that marry as young as we did {18 and 23} will make it that long! But we are very much still in love, more so than almost 11 years ago I would even say. Don't get me wrong, we are not perfect. But on a scale of 1 - 10, I'd give us a STRONG 7..maybe 8...yes lets' go with an 8! If I liked to put up laundry and he liked to get up before noon...it might even be a 9 :) 


Well I guess it's about time that I made an online blog! I LOVE reading so many blogs and always lose them and spend hours looking for them when I accidentally turn off the computer! I think it is an amazing way to keep track of everyday happenings that we might other wise forget! I keep looking at the girls and I cannot believe that they are going to be 10 and 3 this year! That is almost as hard to believe as me and J being together almost 11 years! I am too young to be this OLD!  This might also be where I eventually start selling things from Pretty Stitches again. Who knows, I needed a break from selling online! I mailed out over 1200 order in about 18 months! I am selling thru Pickett Fence now and loving being about to make what I want to for a little bit! 

4:46am..I should be sleeping, but here I am! Deciding that I need to make a blog and watching My Big Fat Greek Wedding {for the 1290830th time!} ! lol Kaity is passed out ACROSS my whole bed, Kyndi is alseep by me on the couch with the cat and dog laying on her! J SHOULD be home by now, but he has a class in Odessa in the morning, so he wont be home until tomorrow night or Thursday morning :/   I miss him, it's been a LONG week! I am ready for him to be home!
