Just Kidding

You know how a couple of posts ago I said nothing turns out the way we plan.  Yeah it happened again.  I went to the rental house for the first time during the day, without the owner, to measure the windows for curtains and guess what.  It smells like cigarette smoke, or should I say it still smells like cigarette smoke.  The landlord assured us that he could get the smell out.  No he did not.  So long story short we are not moving, into that house.  So starts the search for a new rental.  I will not cry, because I am convinced something else will come along... right?

On a better note, I got Elleree's three year old pictures taken and Beckett's four month (should have been three) pictures taken today.  Here are some of the ones I picked.

 The lady who was taking the pictures kept calling her pretty, pretty, princess.  It really got on my nerve.

Notice I said nerve, because I only have one left now.

 She was really good, cheesy but good. Sure I had to bribe her with bubble gum, but I'm not above bribery!

 This one reminds me of Truman at that age.

 He discovered his tongue this weekend and has been playing with it ever since.

My serious little handsome man.  This picture reminds me of Jason's mom he looks alot like her is this picture.  

Good news

I am so excited.  We just got the keys to our new rental house.  This one (hopefully) is not going to get foreclosed on!  It is bigger, and get this Beckett is going to have his own room.  I know, you are excited for me too. 

Last Thursday we had parent teacher conferences.  Both Dillon and Truman are doing very well, bless their little harts.

This weekend I took another trip to the old Mackay.  Cut out a few craft projects (stay tuned) and finished one:

How my mom could have first thought this penguin is not cute is beyond me.  I got this kit from http://wmcraftgoodies.blogspot.com she has some of the cutest stuff.  I bought the chick one too.  I can't wait to do that one with my friend.

Now for what I have been so excited for, for months. 

Just when you thought I couldn't get any cooler I go and surprise you by making a hula-hoop.  Yes, that is right.  I watched a thing on PBS about how to make them awhile ago (did you know there is a national hula-hoop day) and ever since I have wanted to do it.  So finally I did.  I have had fun doing it, and so have the kids.  It's a little big for them, but that is okay.

Back by popular demand is Beckett

My mister man is getting good at sitting up all by himself.  Love him!
