Animal Print......

We had our bathrooms gutted over the last 2 mths. It has been so awesome! I hated those bathrooms for 7 yrs! I am happy to have them nice with new tile and vanities....awwww.... it is awesome! We headed out to Hobby Lobby this morning to look for pictures and a few other accessories. Ava and Sarah-Tate love Hobby Lobby. They love the animal print stuff, jewels, glitter, paint, hair stuff, ribbons, fabric, kids project stuff, flowers, seasonal stuff and candy! :)

When we headed out of Hobby Lobby Ava and Sarah-Tate were talking about changing their room! They have both decided that they want an animal print room! Ava wants tiger stripes! Sarah-Tate wants giraffe print! :) Then they proceeded into a conversation about their weddings. Ava said I am going to marry a really nice guy. We are going to get married on the beach at sunset with the pretty colors. When we have our house there will be tiger print everywhere...people will love it! Sarah-Tate proceeds to talk about her wedding. She wants a giraffe ring and a beautiful pink wedding dress. Her house will have giraffe stuff and zebra! Love this time in life and listening to their stories. I love how they have such a tight bond. They argue and fight but they also have the best time together.

Griffin has turned into my wild man! He climbs on everything. I was in the kitchen grabbing something Monday, came around the corner to see Griffin on top of the girls red table!!! He can also climb on the couch! He is into everything. He is also at a point that he gets so frustrated b/c he wants something but can't tell you. He is at a hard age. I need to get creative for summer plans!

We are waiting on GiGi and Poppy to get here! They are coming to help out for a few days. I am having surgery in the morning, they will be here with the kiddos. I am so happy they will be here! The kids loving having them here! They will not even notice I am gone! :)

Happy Wednesday!

So Slack....

I am so slack with blogging! I have good intentions but then it just doesn't happen! Things have been crazy with school wrapping up...all the birthday parties and travel!

We went to my in laws for Memorial Day in Sarasota. It was fabulous! I love the beach and ocean on that side! They actually live in Casey Key. The water is so calm and blue! The kids loved it! Each morning we headed to the beach around 9 and didn't come back until noon or later for lunch! Griffin was a bit fussy because we did away w/his morning nap during the trip- now he is back on track for his 9 am nap! In the afternoons while Griffin was napping Matt and his dad took the girls out on the boat. They have a dolphin in the canal near their house named Beggar- they would go see him every afternoon. He is so cute- he comes right up to the boat. We had great seafood, food and ice cream! It was so great! Nice to get away from our routine and do fun stuff with the kids!

Here are a few pictures from our trip....

So, that wraps it up.....

Happy Wednesday! :)
