Beautiful

What a beautiful day today is. Craig went on a ride with the guys. So syd and I spent the morning together. She is developing quite the personality. So cute. So happy. After a morning nap she and i went on a bike ride. We stopped at the park and swung for a bit. We tried to find Kristie and Mike's new house, but no luck. Now we're back and we're talking and playing... Some more than others :) Waiting for Craig to get home! My kind of morning. Have a great Sunday everyone!!





Ciao for now!
I always try to stay positive but right now i have to complain. First, why is it that when I go into CVS there isn't anyone around, but when you go to check out there are 6 people in line, 2 cashiers and both are running price checks, and you decide to take your squirmy babes in... Oye!
Second! Why is it that you house breaks right before a major holiday that you are hosting??? I have no kitchen sink, and we have T minus 3 days!
Last, what's up with babies and chapped cheeks? She's had them for almost two weeks! My sis watched her and she got rid of them for a second, but I pick her up today and they are almost the worst I've seen. Annie has been trying all kinds of stuff too and no luck. The CVS trip resulted with some new stuff. I've goobed it on a few times so I'll report back in the morning.

Okay I'm done. Off to home depot!!! Uggg!

Love

I'm in love

Friday--woooh

I'm so glad it's Friday! What a week it has been. One big accomplishment was to get the pool fence installed! We were in the spa last night and I mentioned to Craig how ugly it was and I think he was a little peeved. I told him that it was the best option and in the best possible place but that it just makes our back yard look cluttered and such. Doh. I think I finally made him understand that wanting our kid(s) to be safe and actually wanting the fence are two different things! :)

Anywho, that is done! Now we're going to start work on the closet doors and deck. Wish us luck.

I did however started working on Syd's birthday invitation this week. I think they are going to come out cute. Here is a sneak peek of the pic I might be using!



I love her face. Silly girl!! I'll have to post some of the cute pics we got of her in her costume!

What else has been going on here? We've got Cayden's 3rd BDay on Sat morning. Possible dinner down south. Then Sunday we have open house for preschool and meeting some new friends at Stone. Should be a great weekend.

Ooh I'm hearing some rustling from my munchkin. Got to run. Happy Friday! Ooohh I get to wear jeans. Finally!

Finally Friday

We were super cute this morning! Yesterday was cute too but I forgot to take a pic! Hope you have a great weekend!!








She's actually smiling and swinging her arms. Makes me laugh!

Ciao for now!

Terrific Tuesday

Another great morning of getting up, working out and getting ready all before the family. Whooh!! Today I started my abs workout! I'm sure I will be feeling it tomorrow!

Having a rough time with a situation that has come up. Although the workout doesn't solve it, it sure does clear it out of your mind of it for a while.

The little girl was wearing a crazy outfit yesterday so I thought I'd spare you all!

New things on the horizon, so I hope to have something to report soon!! Have a great day!

Oh I have a pic from work on Friday. Sorry it's so dark! A ladybug landed on my desk!






Ciao for now!

Time Change

As a mom, you are so worried about how your kids are going to do with the time change. I'm happy to report, although we are only on day 2, Sydney is doing great! She has been to bed pretty early the last couple days which has sort of messed up a few of our plans, but I am learning priorities and that I can't make it to everything especially if Miss Syd isn't having it. Me on the other hand... NOT GOOD AT ALL. I was up so early this morning. I decided to do a work out and took a shower and its still only 5:30. Crazy. I'm hoping to keep this going though. You feel so good throughout the day when you work out in the morning. My first goal is to get up every day this week. If you start out the first week consistent, then you are on the right track... right?

What else... well there is always lots going on in this brain of mine. In terms of the babes... we're behind, but we started signing to her. I will keep you posted on how it goes. In terms of me... always trying to make myself better. I'm learning to take everything in stride and not worry about things and people I can not control.

I'm excited for a very eventful week. Syd and I are meeting Miss Mahin on Tuesday, Miss Flener's birthday dinner on Wednesday, and Mrs Ross on Thursday... I miss my friends. I feel like I haven't seen a lot of them for a long time. Well I hope that you all have a great week and keep on keeping it on!

Love,
Alli

Sunday mornings

Oh how I love Sunday mornings! We had a great time at sister's yesterday. Syd's outfit was a hit! The only bummer was that I didn't get a picture with her cousins all in costume. I might have to recreate for her scrapbook. It was really fun!

Also, happy to report that Syd did great with the time change this morning. She woke up at a reasonable time. We are hanging around here today and cleaning. I love days like this.



See the mess... Exactly why we need to clean! =)
