Finish the sentence

Well, it's late and I don't really want to do anything that needs to be done, so here's goes. I got this bulletin off my friend Jennifer's blog and thought it would be fun. So here goes...(you can just copy and past it in your blog if you want and end the sentence).

I just wanna...get everything worked out so we can close on our house and start working on it.

Tomorrow I...am going to my parents' to have a get together for my brothers' birthdays.

I have a...sunburn eventhough I put sunscreen on twice today.

Can't we...just know how God is going to work out all the financial details of our house stuff?

This weekend...is going to be crazy busy as usual.

In my spare time I...chase my 15 month old around the house or make cute things for her (i.e. hairbows, overalls, scrapbook).

I can't believe...we've lived here for a little over six weeks and soon we'll be moving into the 5th place we've lived in since we've been married (in August it will be 5 years) AND this will be Natalie's 4th bedroom and she's only 15 months old!

Who knew...Yorkies had so much hair. I just finished giving Chloe a haircut a little while ago. I think I threw out another dog there was so much hair!

I can't...sleep until Michael gets home from his guys' night.

I love...living here and staying home with Natalie and spending time with wonderful friends. God has blessed me tremendously!

I absolutely can't stand..rude vendors at Trade Days in Canton. That's another story...

Can I have another...baby???? Not sure I want to go through morning sickness and try to chase a toddler around.

Potty Training

Okay, Natalie has teeteed in the floor twice the last two days before I've put her in the bath. So, I decided to pull out her potty and try potty training. I was going to wait until we moved, but there's no time like the present. So, I showed her twice today how we take her diaper off and sit on the potty. Well, tonight she lifts the lid to her potty and tries to unsnap her onesie to sit on the potty. I get her ready and sit her down and....nothing. BUT, she has learned to sit on the potty and not stand in it which is what she was wanting to do. So, we'll see where this goes. Maybe she's ready, maybe she's not. I'm not pushing her, but we will find out if our little princess is ready to begin her transition out of diapers. By the way, I don't even think they make pull ups small enough for her-so we'll still be in diapers for a little while. I'll keep you posted on how our progress is or is not going.

Overalls and Jeans






Since I am now a full time stay at home mommy, I decided I would start working on some crafty things that I've been wanting to do for a while. So, in addition to the bows I'm making, I have been embellishing overalls and jeans for my little girl. I can't take credit for the shirts that Natalie is wearing with the jeans. That is the talent of my friend Jennifer. She also has some adorable stuff for kiddos on her blog site. You can check hers out at http://www.veryfullquiver.blogspot.com/ Enjoy!

Bows



Since I have the most adorable little girl I decided to start dolling her up more with some bows. Unfortunately, they cost way more than I want to pay. So, now I am making them for her. They are turning out really cute! If anyone is interested in adorning their precious one with a few just let me know. I've researched prices on the internet and I think I am very reasonable compared to the ones I've found. Enjoy!!!

Oranges and Snow






Well, I've been telling myself for a while now that I'll start a blog, so I finally decided to go through with it. Well, we spend a little bit of the afternoon outside playing. Natalie played in the water and with her toys while I flipped through some magazines. We ate some oranges and watched the snow fall in our backyard. Well, it's not actually snow it's cottonwood from the tree out back. You can see it in some of the pictures. I didn't mind it when we first moved in, but now that it is everywhere I'm tired of it. Hopefully, we'll be in our new house by the end of next month so we won't have to deal with it much longer.
