more crazy

as a mom you "do what you have to do," right? so, when reese discovered she could climb out of her booby-trapped bed...i made it a tent. i enclosed the side with blankets. totally cool. no way a <2yr. old could figure out how to get out of it! i had that thing tucked in tight.

that night, every 5 min. we'd hear (from ellie) "mom, reese got out of bed again."
finally- i just locked her in the room. like you've never done that! now she falls asleep here every night. hehe.


my crazy

so the other day i couldn't find reese...looked all over.

then i heard the water running in my bathroom.
she had some fun with the soap, and i found her half way undressed sitting in the tub with water.

Ellie graduates preschool

Ellie did awesome in preschool this year. she made tons of progress and became the top of her class. she can spell her colors, is reading, and has tons of confidence. what more can you ask for! we LOVED her teacher Ms. Kristi! For the first time, i have to admit, i cried at her graduation. i was so proud of her and so pleased. it's hard to replace a good teacher.


still trying to upload videos....it keeps saying error. can anyone help???!!!!

Ashlyn 7th birthday



i had ellie help pick out sunglasses and a new watch for ashlyn. they were her favorite presents and she was so excited. she thanked ellie over and over.
Ashlyn's sweet primary teacher threw her a little party at the park as well. all of her class came.
there's nothing like sisters

i can't believe she has turned 7. some things to remember about ashlyn right now: she loves coloring... late at night when she's suppose to be sleeping, she loves to be silly and play with friends on her scooter, she loves taking care of her desert tortoise, she loves to do water balloons too. For her bday dinner, Ashlyn requested in order: broccoli, green beans, and little caesars pizza-random!. Ash doesn't so much like homework or doing chores like putting laundry away...however she does like cleaning the mirrors. I love to hear her laugh and I love when she recognizes her accomplishments.

for computer gurus

explain to me why, since we got our new mac, i can't attach any videos to my blog??? i could before?? it just spins and then nothing attaches??
