So other than the rain...we painted our living room last week/end. I say that because I painted a wall a day & then Saturday Matt & I tackled our largest wall. It went better than I though...as Matt left for work one day he said ---- I give you credit ---- for even attempting to do a little painting with the girls. I will say I had to throw one of Morgen's outfits away, there was so much paint on it...and JaCee was running around with wipes trying to clean Morgen off. Good Memories for me!
We have done a little yard/garden work. As in work I mean we bought the seeds for the garden. Ha. Again, if the weather wood cooperate I could get out & do a little more work.
Oh...ya, I found one of Morgen's 1 year molars this week. I knew she has been a sad camper & probably had some teeth she was working on but she will NOT let you put fingers in her mouth to check. I feel like a spectator at the zoo with a sign that says "enter at your own risk"...I know my hand will leave with a bit mark, but I was able to get in & out fast and felt the molar. I think she's working on the other one now. She's actually been so upset today....she got a rash all over her tummy/back/diaper area yesterday & it's still there today. Benadryl isn't doing much for it. I would say it's heat rash, but we also ate something a little different I'm wondering if that upset her. We'll see. So...no fever, but clingy & tired & fussy & just generally mad at the world today. I caved in at 10 am & put her down for a nap. She tends to want to nap at 10am every day & I hold her off until noon to nap with JaCee. But today...I put her down at 10 and she woke up at 11:30 and she went back down at 1pm.
JaCee ~~~ My sweet baby...oh boy. We started a chore chart with her a couple of weeks ago. I put things on there that she is expected to do every day & struggles with every day. *Make bed, brush teeth (am/pm), pick up toys (before nap time & bedtime), put away silverware in dishwasher* Simple things & she loves loves her chores. She has only missed one sticker for not picking up her toys before bed time & she was devastated. Cried & cried. She did tell me that the best part of chores is that she gets to sit on my lap & pick a sticker to put on her chart. It's pretty cute. I took her on Saturday to pick out a toy...just her & I --- we made it really special & made sure she understood it was for doing her chores soo good. I think this week, we'll just start giving her a nickle for every chore she did to put in her piggy bank. It's a work in progress but it's I'm proud of how it's going so far.
Oh ya, we bought JaCee her own little 4.wheeler. She'll outgrow it in no time & then it will be Morgen's, but right now Morgen doesn't want anything to do with it since it makes noise & moves!
My sweet cheeks!
What is wrong with this picture?
Rides at the mall...I think I have a thousand of these pictures from this winter.
Morgen loves CHEESE now. If she sees me get the camera out she stands in front of me & smiles the biggest smile....and says eeeeeee.....
