The most wonderful time of year

And no, I do not mean Christmas (though, I do love that too)

But right now the weather is finally beautiful and we spend all day with our doors and windows open and playing outside.

The forbidden kitten....

My mom has been forbidding Dax from having a kitten for many years....

Friday night his big sister was a hero!

Monday Night Football

Jim and both girls are chilling watching the Cardinals. We had family night at the park with a picnic and an Old Testament story. Ainsley has a cold and I think Caelan's getting it. Stinky still won't potty train. Ainsley still loves school.

Can't wait for Christmas.

Back to work.

The little things

that make us happy as mother's...

potty trained 2 year olds (still waiting on this one, I assure you)
5 years olds dressed in a leotards and doing leaps across the dance floor

and what made my day?

finding an AWESOME jogging stroller on craigslist, the exact one I was wanting (well besides Hanna's BOB of course) for only $40...and it's brand new...yep, I rock. Jim has already picked it up for me and is on his way home. He says it looks awesome. Tomorrow, I jog.

Stupid foot...

I was sure I would be fine, I walked a mile last Sunday and I was a little sore but bearable, so today I went two miles and by the time I got home my foot was burning in pain :(

Being a klutz sucks.

I'm horribly overwhelmed with dentist appointments, doctor's appointments, therapy (yes, therapy), and dance classes (which I should NOT have added to our schedule this year), and baby hunger, and being mad at myself, and wishing I was more willing to use this blog as an outlet (it's not that I have any problems telling any one of my readers what I'm really feeling, but I have no inclination to put any of it down where I would have to read it again).

I'm so tired. Caelan hasn't slept "normally" in almost two months now, so of course that means I've been losing sleep for two months too.

I have to get back to work now.

Halloween Fluff

And yes, Caelan is wearing a completely different costume. At the last minute she absolutely REFUSED to wear her princess dress, and instead insisted on being a "dowena" (ballerina for those of you that don't speak Caelish)

We went to the ward trunk or treat and that's pretty much it, but it rocked, so it's all good.

Ainsley-ism

Ainsley decided to have a lemonade stand today.

We didn't have lemonade.

So Ainsley had a water stand. I had taken Jo to the dentist and Jim calls me cracking up!

She set the whole thing up herself with cups of water and a big box and her little chair.

Some nice old couple came by and gave her $2 because they felt sorry for her.
