Catching up

Tuesday the 17th was my 33rd birthday. It was a pretty good day besides going to the dentist to get a filling and having an IBS attack in the afternoon. Since I got my present in January (my turquoise Nintendo DS), Barry didn’t buy me anything, but we did have yummy Chinese take-out and a Blizzard ice cream cake from Dairy Queen!

This weekend my FIL and Barry wanted to install the laminate downstairs so to get the girls out of their hair, I took the girls to my hometown to visit my parents for the weekend, which I normally do around my birthday anyway. We had family over for supper on Saturday night and had meatballs, rice, hash brown casserole & chicken divan then my mom made me a birthday pie, since I didn’t want cake. Here’s me blowing out the candle to my lemon meringue pie.

Here’s a few pictures of the new floor downstairs. Barry said he didn’t have enough time to take some “before” pictures.

My ILs are coming over tomorrow to laminate the stairs. Well, who’re we kidding…my FIL will be doing the stairs, my MIL will be cleaning my house. LOL

I ended up buying Kaylee her own DS earlier in the week. I figured I might as well since she never got any expensive toy with my Christmas money. She got a nice metallic rose one. now to find a copy of Dora saves the Mermaids DS game...looks like it's hard to find at a nice price. I know she'd love it thought because it's for younger kids so she'd understand what to do, just her other Dora game.

Kaylee is totally potty trained now. I hope I don't jinx myself, but she hasn't had an accident in bed yet, nor anywhere else! She's been diaper/pull-up free for about 2 weeks now! I just can't believe how quickly it happened!

Valentine's Day

Valentine’s Day was a pretty low-key day, but the girls had a great time! They were spoiled this year! Here’s my 365 picture for that day. Kaylee is loving her Dora Saves the Snow Princess Nintendo DS game…it’s easy for her to follow and do the activities in it. There’s a Dora Saves the Mermaids one too, so I might get that for her for Easter. Looks like she’ll be getting a DS for Christmas so she won’t be playing mine all the time. LOL

A reprieve

I was supposed to go to the dentist today to get 2 small cavities filled, but school was canceled due to slippery road conditions, so I canceled my app’t.  I have to go on Tuesday (my birthday no less) to get another cavity filled anyway, so I’ll just reschedule my app’t then. For some reason they can’t do it all in one day. Ugh!

So again, it’s been almost a week since I blogged last! Not a whole lot has happened in the past week…Kaylee is doing really well with her potty training. I think she’s almost done! She hasn’t worn a pull-up in 3 days, even at night! We are SO proud of her!

I actually did some hybrid stuff the other day! Now that I have ink for the printer, I wanted to try doing some…it was fun and pretty easy!

A week

I can’t believe it’s been a week since I blogged last! Since then:

• We started potty training Kaylee on Saturday (she’s doing really well and is about 90% done!)

• My mom came to visit from Sunday to Tuesday

• Mom babysat the girls while DH and I went to see Underworld 3: Rise of the Lycans. It was awesome!

• School was canceled on Tuesday because of the snow/ice storm we were going to get that day

• Got groceries on Thursday..$210 even without having to buy diapers

• My FIL came to paint the bathroom on Thursday

• I am passing a kidney stone at this point on Friday….fun.

Okay, that's it for me..my pain meds are making me sleepy.
