I make her wear headbands

Since Reese is bald, she is forced to wear headbands everyday. She has just developed her own opinion about them and likes to rip them off:


So then we spend 10 minutes going back and forth. She usually wins. Darn it.

So the other night Brian and I were on the couch, relaxing after putting the girls to bed. We had our nightly snack of cookies and milk when Bria comes at the top of the stairs and says very sweetly, "What're you guys eating?"
Crap, we're caught.
I decide to not admit the full truth because that just seems cruel to tell her we are eating cookies while she's stuck in bed. So instead I said, "We're eating strawberries."
A look of disappointment spreads across her face and she says in a boring tone, "Oh." Then turns and goes into her room and back to bed.
That's how much she despises strawberries. I'm not sure what is more hilarious, the fact that she hates strawberries so much, or that she just went back to bed so willingly.


Gotta love this girl

She's got spunk.


I've been doing a few more crafts around the house. I created a little reading corner in the playroom for Bria and I like how it's coming along. I have one wall done, the other wall I just want to put some shelves up so I can display books.
I got some letters from Michael's and painted them turquoise.
I used a shadow box and glued the letters on the outside.

Then printed off a cute chevron patter from the computer and filled in where you normally put pictures.

That was it!
The little frames below are cheap wooden ones that were $1 from Michael's. I modge podged some scrapbook paper on them and then printed cute Dr. Suess things to go in them. I like the colors :)
I had a great birthday yesterday and am grateful to my friends and family for making me feel so special.
My sweet friend Randi sent this to me! Not only was it her anniversary but she was also at a funeral this day, she is very thoughtful.

And Dehlia was AWESOME and brought me starbucks. LOVE it.


Oh, and see those chocolate covered strawberries in my edible arrangement? Bria did take a bite of one of them, but I don't think any strawberry got in there, just chocolate :)
