Busy Weekend!

We left Dallas on Friday and got to Girard that night. Then on Saturday I had a great baby "Sprinkle" hosted by my friend Kaite Smithhisler, who is also very pregnant like me! :) I believe she is a couple weeks behind me and her son is just about Breckyn's age! :) It was a great day!! Strider's cousin Jas came down from Kansas City with her son Landon who is Breckyn's new
"Best Friend Forever" (which is what he told us!). I got to hang out with some great friends that I haven't seen in a while and it was so much fun!

Then Sunday we went to Eureka Springs AR for our friends' wedding! It was a lot of fun! Breckyn was the highlight of the party because she was dancing up a storm on the dance floor!!! The reception was outside and it was HOT HOT HOT! LOL!! But it was at a beautiful location and the Chapel was AMAZING! Our hotel, the Basin Hotel, was downtown and is the oldest hotel in Eureka Springs and so nice!!

Swimming Time!

Strider, Breckyn, and I relaxed in the pool today!!! YEP, I SAID POOL!!! He finally got our little pool put up and it feels soooo nice to get in it! :) Breckyn LOVES being in the pool and in water in general!! Strider was trying to teach her to swim today! :)

Weekend at the Cabin

Strider, Breckyn, and I made the LONG (LONG LONG LONG) journey up north to stay at the Steele cabin in Scott City, Ks! We had such a great time hanging out with the family!! Breckyn got to "help" take care of baby Pearl (our newest neice) and was a big help making breakfast in the morning! One of the highlights of the trip was Breckyn's first time to fishing!! And just like her Daddy she LOVED it and got to use her new fishing pole from Great Grandpa Travis! However, Uncle Shermy let her "hold" the worms, and they almost ended up as her dinner! LOL!! Good thing Uncle Sherman has quick reflexes!!! It was a nice relaxing mini vacation!! We didn't do a whole lot and that was OK by me!!!

Mommy Painted her toes and she was blowing on them to dry them quicker!

Breckyn and Mommy went swimming, A LOT! She LOVED the pool!!!!

We Sing in Sillyville

So, about a month ago I bought Breckyn "We Sing in Sillyville" which is a movie I use to watch when I was in grade school!!! And I can remember sitting in Mrs. Cooke's music class praying we were going to watch it!! LOL!! I thought she would LOVE it becuase it has so many fun songs and they have lots of hand movements wiht them. Little did I know HOW MUCH she was going to like it!!! Its usually a given that we watch it first thing in the morning when she wakes up, and DEFINATELY right when she gets home from daycare!!! I would guess on an average we watch "Rumble Rumble," which is what Breckyn calls it becuase of her FAVORITE song in it, about 5 times a day!!! UGH! I cannot get her to watch any cartoons or learning programs on TV, but she will sit for an HOUR and watch this movie!!!! I was so excited to get this movie for her, but definately regretting it now. I have even found myself at working singing the "Sillyville" songs in my head!!!!!!!!!!!! UGH! However, I would recommend this movie to anyone with toddlers!!

Breckyn watching "Sillyville" so seriously!!

Breckyn and a her Brother!

Breckyn and I went and had some pictures taken on Saturday and I wanted to share a few of my personal favorites! :)

Giving her Little Brother hugs!

She's a HUGE K-STATE FAN!!!!

There's My Little Brother

Playing with Mommy!!!!

The Great Room Swap has Begun!

Strider and I started to switch all the furniture around from Breckyn's room to the new nursery!!! Which means, BRECKYN GOT A NEW BED!!! :) It's so cute!!!! And it has a trundle, and I like to think its PERFECT! I found it on Craig's List! I LOVE Craig's List! LOL!!!

The bed with nothing on it!

Her new bed with Tinker Bell bedding! :)

Enjoying her new bed!

So after ALL day Saturday and running around the metroplex we finally got home and took apart her crib, moved it to the new nursery/guest room, and put it back together. With all sorts of help from Breckyn! LOL!! She LOVED "helping" take out screws! :)

Then all day Sunday we spent cleaning out BOTH rooms and switching Furniture around and getting rid of TONS of stuff. I think Strider ended up taking about 7 bags of clothes, random household decorations, and tons of other stuff to the Good Will donation!!! I feel "cleansed" by the whole process! LOL!! It feels good to get rid of stuff you haven't used in FIVE YEARS! LOL!! But the best part is that Strider is finally getting rid of that stupid brown leather couch! WHOHOO!!! It's been in Breckyn's room since before she was born! I am THRILLED to get it out of here!

So The new nursery will have one purple Wall, with a BIG WHITE POWERCAT in the center!! :) I can't wait! Hopefully by this weekend we will have a great start on it, and possibly finish it!! :) YEAH!
