My, What Manners You Have!

Leslie, this is for you...Did Tate call Andrew to get the details of spitting? We just finished lunch and Tate was running around with her sippy cup. The next thing I know... there is milk all over the floor, and all over her. She was spitting it outeverywhere. Lovely! Such nice manners. As you can tell by the picture she thought it was great fun!

School, Molars, Owls, Dogs, and Houses!!

School-Tate and I are both getting ready to start school. This week we have had "work week". I am very excited about being back at school. I think Covenant is going to be a great place to work with a "little one." Tate has been going to the nursury at church. She, on the other hand, is NOT a big fan. Hopefully once school starts, and she is in her actual classroom she will do better.

Molars-She is also getting her molars. My goodness, I had no idea teeth could hurt so bad. We went to the dr. the other day to make sure it was just her teeth. She has been just walking around crying. The dr. said all four molars are coming in, and her gums are really swollen. I guess it is a good thing we are getting them all at once!

Owls-The other day while Tate was napping, I was looking on some other people's blog. "Blog Stalking" I guess you could call it. Anyway, several Chi-O's had blogged about the cutest owl pj's I have ever seen. And wouldn't you know...they came from Target. Well, when Tate woke up from her nap we headed to Target, and they had one pair left.

Dogs-Tate has always been a big fan of Max and Lennie, but lately she has really been lovin' on Max. They "share" toys, and she tries to give him her milk from her cup. It is actually pretty gross and sweet all at the same time. She has also become obsessed with the book, Good Boy Fergus. She brings it to me several time a day wanting to read it. It is a really cute book. It is by David Shannon. If you have dogs...you should pick it up. Our copy is now missing two pages because it is so loved.


Houses-My neighbors are adding up on their house. They moved out about a month ago. The work on their house is really coming along. It is making me really want to get out of our "little bitty-home sweet home." Robert tells me to stop lusting....I say I am dreaming....it doesn't hurt to dream does it. We have no reason to move right now, but looking never hurts anything. How can I not get this feeling when I looking out my windows and see this all day long:

One day it will be my turn I guess!

I found it!

So, I finally found a mirror and the bathroom is FINALLY complete. Although the wait seemed like forever, it was worth it! The mirror was very much in my budget, so we were thrilled about that. I guess a little patience does some good, although, I am not sure if it was patience or just nothing out there that kept me from getting anything earlier. Tate thinks that someone lives in our bathroom. Everytime she comes in our room, she runs in there looking for someone. Glad to have that done.......on to the bookcases I have been waiting on since November. We'll see if that happens????
