Baby Girl's Birthday and Professional Photos

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY GIRL!!!!

well today is my baby girls 3rd birthday!! its so hard to believe that she is already 3! we took her for her professional photos to day and also got our family photos done. it was a very long and tiring experience but i think the pics turned out great. i will post pics when i can:) this evening J went out and surprised our lil girl with a lil birthday cake. we do two big birthdays for her with each side of the family but we still like to do a lil one on her actual birthday with just the 4 of us.

Painting Around The House..

as i mentioned in a previous post i have been doing a ton of painting around the house the last week and a half. i only now realized that i never posted any pics so that is what i am going to do now. now for the unrelated ppl who read my blog and therefore have never seen my house just picture all the walls originally being creme and the dressers and shelves being wood and old lol. also the fact the you can now see my floor in my bedroom is a miracle!!

the living room...try and ignore the bday decor..my daughter has another party on sunday lol. note all the toys on the floor?? those actually now have a nice place to go whent he kids are sleeping lol



this is the main wall in the dining room.

so thats all the painting ive done. it was a blast!

And the christmas shopping begins...

so today me and my sisters with children decided to pull names between the cousins as secret santas. it took some phone and major texting to work out all the details but we got it all figured otu and i think it'll be a ton of fun. my boy has already boughten his gift for the person he is supposed to buy for and my girl has started but has to buy a few more things before she is done. of course im paying for it all and picking it cause they are both to young to do it but i think when they are old they will really enjoy this.
i also bought the ingredients i'll need for the our family christmas baking day. other then shopping i havent done much other then dishes, laundry and watching the kids. my boy is super clingy and loving today which is kinda fun lol.

my day today

well not much has happened today..did dishes, some laundry and watched the kids try to kill each other just like they do every day lol. my boy is now in the 'rip the heads off sister's dolls so she cries' stage so that really sucks. im making them go with out tv today so the fighting is even worse. thinking about making chicken for super..yup not really anything interesting to post:P

T's birthday party #1 and A's birthday parties

so apparently i havent blooged in a very long time lol.
since the last time i blogged alot has happened. my boy celebrated his 2 yr birthday party and it was a blast, ive been preparing for my girls 3 year birthday party which is on sunday. she wanted dora and even tho i hate dora i figured might as well get it over with lol. i have also been dong a ton of painting in my house. i painted an accent wall in my livingroom, dining room and bedroom. i also painted the saying 'our family is a circle of strength and love' on one of the dining room walls. i have painted my dresser and end tables in m bedroom and the shelf i have in my living room. i am working on painting the frame of a mirror i bougth second hand for my bdroom cause im sick of jumping up and down in front of my small bathroom mirror to see if an outfit works lol. all of these things got painted a dark chocolate brown and i really like how it looks. i also got 'new' couches since my old ones where pretty ratty already. my brother-in-law is making me a bedframe and im pretty excited about that. my sister from bc is planning to come out to visit over christmas and i think it'll be a blast.
the other day i had a movie night with my nephew and his mom and it was a ton of fun. the kids loved playing with their lil cousin. with the holidays and all the birthdays coming up there is a ton of stuff planned for the next month. saturday is my birthday and my niece is getting baptised, sunday is my girls birthday party for one side of the family, the 3rd is her actual birthday plus her professional pics in the city as well as family pics for us and then the next sunday is the other birthday party for her. the kids dad has his birthday on the 23rd and we're planning his party for the 19th. then the 21-26th are filled with family gatherings and other christmas fun.
socks keep getting stuck in the pipes of my washing machine and that has been super annoying. seems like when i finally try super hard to keep my house clean something breaks and i fall behind!
