I don’t know why I seem to go so long between setting down and writing something, anything! Life has been so great, I have no new news to write. Aubree is 16 months old, has a mouth full of teeth, and is the sweetest thing. She says “scuse you” when she hears someone burp, puts the phone to her ear and says “hello” or “hola” her favortie word is momma, when she wants something open she says “open please” (which sounds like ope pease), loves shaking her head no, and when she nods yes it’s SO cute, goes to the fridge and tries to pull open the freezer door while saying “ice” cause she wants an ice cream sandwich,”thank you” when you give her something, and if she hears a sneeze, her own version of bless you, and if you ask her how old she is, she’ll hold up both hands with her first fingers up and smile really big. She is such a bright little girl, copies everything she sees and is so smart! Bailey was the same way so she takes alot after her big sis. Speaking of, Bailey is not doing so great in math in 6th grade, hopefully it was just a rough first 9 weeks…we’ll see, all B’s except for that. Today is my daddy’s birthday, also the 7 year anniversary of Scott and mines first date. It literally seems like yesterday, and here we are 7 years later with an ideal life. He is such a good person and I am So thankful he was patient enough to stick around with me. I am not the easiest person to get to know sometimes.
We just finished, well almost, our second living room remodel, and I have to say I am so thrilled with it. Very light colors this time, very open, not alot of clutter. I’d post pics but can’t figure out how.
I cna’t believe it’s almost Christmas! My favorite time of year. I love the couple of months before to, the decorating, shopping, childrens excitement. And hopefully some snow. I’ve already got the bathroom decorated, Christmas shower curtain, rugs, washclothes, soap dispenser and am going to start on the kitchen next. I want to do the bedrooms to and am looking for some Christmas flannel sheets and maybe a quilt. We decided not to get a cabin this year for Thanksgiving so we’ll have some extra time to decorate and do some shopping. Have to definetely get the pool closed this weekend or next, what a pain! We have never had it opened this late in the year, of course, we don’t use it, just have always had it closed by now. The neighbors haven’t closed theirs either so I don’t feel so bad. We really wanted to get the living room out of the way so spent more time on it. It was kinda fun picking out paint, furniture and rugs all over again, felt like we moved into a new house. Baileys room is the next big overhaul, I can’t wait to see what she decides to do it in. Scott said no black walls so she can’t go to far.
We are spending this weekend at some of our good friends house out in the country. Its a nice place, literally in the middle of nowhere. They have a 3 year old and him and Aubree get along pretty well, of course will be easier when she is a bit older but they play fine for now. It’s a
