Singing Sensation

Since Paige started her new school she is always coming home singing new songs. This is her latest favorite and I have actually always liked this song "This is the day that the Lord has made." She has made lots of progress with the words because the first two weeks that she sang it she prounounced Lord as "whore". And yes, I giggled every single time. I am so happy with how much she loves this school. Todd says that her face lights up every day when he drops her off and she runs off to play with her "best friends".

Checking in

Well, I don't have anything too exciting to write about. We've been doing very well. Paige is really enjoying school. She has been struggling with her allergies. Now that she doesn't have tonsils and has a brand new set of tubes in her ears she is doing great. Now Mommy is just learning how to deal with a runny nose instead of the major infections. I think we are getting it under control. Todd put our new desk and bookcase together so that we could move the computer out of the nursery. Yeah Todd. Of course now the ball is in my court and there is a ton of crap in there for me to go through. Hopefully, I will make a dent in it this weekend. I really want to have the nursery done by the end of October. I had a doctor's appt last week and the baby has really grown and she is doing well.

I know that Paige says lots of funny things but I can't think of any since I'm actually going to write them down - I definitely need to get better at writing them down as they happen. Here are some pics of Paige that I've taken in the last month. She is so much fun right now and she is such a big girl!

This is what my raggamuffin looked like yesterday when I picked her up from school. At least she obviously had fun, right?

Princess Paige - she insisted on wearing this to Walmart on Sunday. I think Todd was surprised that I went along with it. If you can't dress like a princess when you are 3, when are you going to do it? Besides, have you seen those Walmart emails that have been going around?

Another favorite outfit at our house.

Paige usually requests having a T-shirt on but since Yaya bought her this red tutu (it goes with her Christmas jammies), Paige only wants to wear the tutu. Thanks Yaya!

Our little artist. She drew the happy face by herself. The blue dots are the ears and cheeks.

Results of Todd's hard work. It really looks great in our room.

Paige helping Daddy put the desk together. She loves using the drill - she definitely didn't get that from me!

Labor Day Weekend

My Mom (Yaya) came down for the weekend and it was a busy one. Well, busy for the cranky preggo at least. Friday after we picked Yaya up from the airport we headed straight to the outlet mall on Hwy 290. I spent plenty of money but didn't have the success that I did last time. We were on a mission to find Fall clothes/shoes for Paige. She was a complete angel while we were there.

Saturday we had dance class and my Mom got a couple new pics from that. Then it was errand running: Lowes, Target, Costco & Walmart. Needless to say I was exhausted. Todd put up the water slide for Paige and Josh, Jen, Maddie & Sam came over for dinner. Unfortunately I didn't get any pics of the babies but they were so sweet and it is obvious Paige is going to be a very helpful big sister.

Yesterday, Daddy & Paige played on the water slide for hours and had so much fun. My Mom and I did some more shopping (of course). This time we hit Marshall's and Target again. I got a really cute diaper bag and new purse and some new clothes for this ever growing body. Today, I am trying to be as lazy as possible. Hope everyone had a very relaxing weekend and spent less money than I did!

Dirty Feet

Obviously Paige has been going to school on a regular basis for quite some time now. And for almost two years she has worn Crocs to school during the summer. They are so easy and they are required to wear closed in shoes to school. This summer was no different. She has been wearing her green crocs almost every day. Before you see the pics below, I also want to mention that I already have plans to go to the outlet mall on Friday to do some Fall clothes shopping and shoe shopping for Paige- especially shoes for school. Are you ready to see what her feet looked like when I picked her up from school today???? At least we know she must be having some fun at school.
