2 1/2 hours....

is how long it took for me to put the girls kitchen together!!!

I read the reviews where people said it took them 6 hours to put together. So I did it early so that if it took a long time to do I would have a few weekends with Bryant's help to do it. The girls were napping at the same time so I decided to start it. I finished right when the girls were waking up. Now I can't wait for Christmas because I know the girls will love it!

All the pieces!



EVERY little piece needed to be cut out:


Its done!


the trash from the project!

I got them!

The ornaments came in today. The coloring seems a little off, especially on Kaitee's. The coloring looks worse in the pictures then it does in real life. I still love them!



Kaitee and Brooke's feet are almost the same size!!!


And Kaitee looked cute today so here are a few pictures of her!

Caleb!

Kaitee use to point at pictures of Caleb and call him Brook (she did this when she was around 1 1/2). I would correct her and say "its Caleb". It has been at least 6 months since I have done this. I just finally got around to hanging up pictures in our new apartment. Starting a few days ago when I hung up the pictures, she started pointing at his pictures and saying "Karub" Pretty close! I am surprised that she remembers his name from at least 6 months ago! It sounds great hearing her say his name. It even brought tears to my eyes!




I can only imagine that if he were still alive that I would hear them fighting and she would be screaming that name everyday like she does with "Brookie".

Brooke can now...

open doors! She is 13 1/3 months old. She has been trying to open the front door for a few weeks now. Tonight I accidentally forgot to deadbolt the front door and she opened it!!! I don't remember Kaitee doing that this young.




here is Kaitee being weird making a bed on the coffee table!

Christmas ornaments!

I took a few pictures of the girls today so I could have their Christmas ornaments ordered. I wanted the ornament to have a picture of them with their lovey's (Kaitee's Pooh bear, and Brooke's sock monkey).











This is what they will look like (they are only blurry because I zoomed in on them):

Another day with no accidents!

Today we went shopping at 2 stores and then out to dinner. Kaitee held her pee and peed at IHOP. She is really amazing!!! This potty training thing seems so simple when it comes to Kaitee!

I must really love him!

We went to San Fransisco today to pick up Bryant's bike. I had to drive through SF. If you know me you know how much I hate driving. It was nerve wracking!

Well I really underestimated my smart little girl. She peed in the potty before we left this morning. Then before we were leaving the motorcycle shop I took her to the bathroom and she peed in a PUBLIC restroom! Then she waited til we got home to pee again. She had NO accidents.

Here are a few pictures from the car ride today:
