Twilight Junkies

After we all purchased our DVD, we went and got our picture taken with Edward, the perfect man, or should I say vampire, that really does not exist as much as we all wish he would. I have enjoyed the Twilight series and even though they are far from real, it is so much fun to have an imagination!

So Sharee, Tara, and I went to the midnight release party for the Twilight DVD. I guess we didn't really need to be there til a little before midnight because we had reserved copies, but I wasn't thinking and we all met up at 10:00 p.m. When we got to FYE, they had a crossword and a word search for us to do. The crossword was a little difficult with some questions, considering how much we all like Twilight, but don't worry, we did end up figuring out all of the answers. We didn't watch the movie that night, but the plan is to watch it tonight. We are going to have FUN!!! Thank you Sharee and Tara for going with me!

Kyleigh Beethoven

So I have been playing the piano a lot lately, trying to get back what little skill I used to have. In the meantime, it is hard to play sometimes because the girls want to help. One day I was doing something and I heard Kyleigh playing and then she asked if I would take a picture of it. I guess she thought it was cute...and yes I think it is adorable! And no she is not really reading music!

Bailyn's Sunglasses

I just think that it is so funny that she isn't even two and she know what to do with sunglasses. She has known for a while and everytime I see it she cracks me up!

Our New Clock

When Joe and I first came to look at our new house, the couple that was living in it before us had a clock hanging in the dining room and I loved it. So since we moved in, I have been looking at clocks because I liked theirs so much. Then I got this Deseret Book ad, that had this clock in it on sale for a great price, plus I love that it says familes are forever. So it is hanging in our dining room and everytime Joe walks by it he tells me how he really likes our clock! I do to...it is exactly what we were looking for!

SLEEP OVER

March 20, 2009 at 6:00 a.m. this is what Joe found when he woke up and went to check on the girls before getting ready for work. Was this planned? Absolutely not! But girls will be girls. Kyleigh Rae has been telling Bailyn that they will have a sleepover soon and so Bailyn thinks she gets to sleep in Kyleigh's bed. Well truth be told, I don't care if they sleep in the same bed once in a while, but I would like it to be planned, my idea, and a treat for them. Not something that happens all the time. Well last night Ky told Bailyn that she could have a sleepover, but I said not tonight. So they went to their separate beds. Later on this morning, like 3:00 a.m. I had a coughing attack from the cold that I am trying to get over. It took me a while to get back to sleep. Later I heard walking or moving or something in the hallway. Usually when Bailyn gets out of bed at night, which isn't very often anymore, she comes to get me. Well not this morning. She went to get into big sisters bed and had a SLEEPOVER!

Tootsie Pitsie

WHAT IS A TOOTSIE TOOTSIE or A PITSIE PITSIE? Well in all honesty I am not sure, but I do believe it has to do with the bubbles that are on your body after you get washed up, according to Kyleigh Rae and Bailyn. I really don't know how this came about, but one day I was washing Kyleigh Rae up after her bath and she wanted to play with all the bubbles left on her body. She called them either tootsie tootsies or pitsie pitsies. Mostly it is tootsie tootsies. I want to say she started calling them this before Bailyn was even born and sure enough, Bailyn caught right on and now they firmly believe that is what you call the bubbles on your body after being washed up. One night Kyleigh was so excited about the tootsie/pitsies that she said, "Well hello tootsie tootsie, nice to see you again. I just laughed because really, where does she come up with these things?!?!? Anyways, I am sure it is not in Webster's Dictionary, but in case you were ever wondering this is what my girls have defined a tootsie tootsie or pitsie pitsie as being!

Corcker Hairbows

Thanks to my friend Tara, I finally learned how to make the corker hairbows. It is one of my favorite to put in Bailyn's hair. She also taught me how to make headbands, but I have yet to make one that actually fits my childrens heads, so I will keep on working on it. I bought them both a coral colored dress for Easter and the plan is to make the coral headband and then put the coral and white corcker bow in the headband. We'll see if it turns out...I hope so!

Bailyn's Profession

Well I do believe that Bailyn has picked her profession - Photography. Actually this is what happens when you leave your camera in the reach of your 22 month old. The amazing thing is that she even turned it on by herself and got a couple of snapshots. The first one didn't turn out the way she wanted, but man I couldn't have done better on the second one if I tried!

These are my musical dolls that I have been collecting over the years and when we moved I didn't know where I wanted to put them. I have this perfect ledge in the living room window, but was worried about the girls playing with them. All in all they do pretty well at leaving the dolls alone. But Bailyn has this thing for babies - she is going to make a GREAT mother someday - and so when she sees my dolls, she basically only sees the babies and I will find her walking around the house with one of these porcelain babies wrapped up in her big blanket. She is so gentle and sweet with them that I have a hard time getting mad at her, but even so I still wish she wouldn't touch them! My girls are the light of my life! I don't know what I would do without them and the experiences I have had because of them. I love you Kyleigh Rae and Bailyn!!!
