This afternoon Emily stormed off because she was mad.  After I a while I decided to see what she was doing because she was so quiet...always scare with young children.  This is what I found:

Clearly she is not totally ready to give up her afternoon nap.  She slept there from 2:00 - 3:30 when I had to wake her up!

Oh no...camera out of focus!

Just kidding...our TV shot craps!  Aaaaahhhhh!!!!!!!!!!  We knew we needed a new TV.  We just really wanted to wait to buy one until we moved.  That way we could find the best TV for the our new family room.  Now we don't have much of  a choice about buying a new one.  We have nothing to use temporarily.  And we are NOT one of those families that is interested in going without a TV!

All I wanted was a new, "big kid phone."  I finally got one.  I assumed that in a day or so I'd have it figured out.  It's been weeks and I can barely work the darn thing.  I had no idea it would take me so long to figure out!

Today, however, I had a great discovery...I can now speak into the phone and it will write the text for me!  So very cool!

This was supposed to be the picture of the day.  This is all the loot that Emily got when I got my haircut.  One lucky duck...

Later that night, this is what Emily did to her room.  She went on "vacation."  Talk about a mess!

Totally cheated tonight...no picture.  Just video.  Too hard hear laughter in a picture!

The two things that Mark deserved after day 3 of working on repainting most of the house!

Everyone was pleased with mom resting and Emily doing all the work.

Mark suggested we take this picture of Katie just before she ate cat food yet again.  He was sure this would seal the deal on our Parent of Year award!  Wish us luck!

On National Wine day I had no other choice but to drink.  How could I pass up this holiday?!?

This is not where Katie started her dinner.  Katie has taken to ramming her feet on the bottom of her tray and popping it off.  She then bucks in her chair and moves it across the floor.  We are now studying other highchairs solutions to see what we think she can't cause problems with!  She's the trouble child.  There's a reason she came second.  She's not a good child for a first time mom!  :)

Story Time!

One of the moms at Little Saints decided that her kids would give stamps instead of candy...

After 25 minutes in the shower scrubbing her face, I would have taken the candy!

**On a side note.  This picture was taken with my new phone.  I not only put in on FB, but I e-mailed it to myself.  I know this is no big deal for most people, but it was first for me!  Very pleased with myself.**

Emily decided to dress Mommy up tonight.

We both had a great time!

Static does some crazy things when you've got long hair.

Can you tell we are teething?  We're up to 7!

Day 2 of phonics and reading at home.  Didn't go too bad.  Gave me a real good sneak peak of working on homework in the future.

A while ago I remember seeing a post on Jamie's blog about Kohen and Maryn sharing a bag of dried fruit.  I remember how cute that was.  Today I found Emily and Katie doing the same thing!  So cute!

Katie went to the doctor today.  Still big.  Still healthy.  She had her iron tested today by a finger prick.  Emily is what they call a "bleeder" at the doctors office.  Katie...not so much!  It took forever!  At least her iron was great, and we don't have to do this again until she's two!

Gramma and Grampa are back!

This is the Emily picked out for herself today:

We went to Costco this way!

Guess who likes clean folded laundry!

Probably should put the laundry away faster next time!
