A better day today

Today the girls woke up feeling much better.

Can't you tell?

Jaina soon found out that staying home from school isn't that much fun.

So we headed to Chick Fil A for lunch

And why not get ice cream too

Then I had to run a few errands.

My little lady bug

We came home and planted our hanging baskets

Then I let the girls make peanut butter bird feeders

They were having a blast

 

Jolee's not much into making crafts she wanted to eat the peanut butter instead :)

Ta-da all done

Hopefully we can attract some birds in our yard

 

Some planted hanging baskets

Tomorrow Jaina will be back at school

Catch up post

It's been a couple days since I've blogged last. It's been easy losing track of the days when life gets busy.

Last week I was SUPER excited about my new pots and pan. Justin and I have been talking about getting some new pots and pans forever and I finally did and I scored an AWESOME deal on them! So when we got married I got a KitchenAid set and have had them for the last 7 years. We have very hard water and the pots were pretty bad with hard water spots and scratches. So last week I went to Macy's and fell in love with the Martha Stewart Copper Bottom set. I looked at the reviews and how to clean them and decided to go for it and buy them. They were normally 299 and was ready to check out but the cash register lady told me if I came back the next day they would be on sale. So the next day I made the trip and went back to the store and boy I was glad because they were on sale for 179, plus I used a 15% off coupon. Then I got a 30$ gift card back for buying them and I sold our old pots for 20$ so I only ended up paying 105.00!!! I saved over 200 bucks! Now that's a deal!

I love how they look. They work so awesome and ready super easy to clean

The weather has finally warmed up and the weather is shining so that only means its time to get out in the garden and start planting

Jolee is still feeling a little crummy and is still a little fussy. She's been extra needy lately and has been following me around everywhere. Even to help in the garden

Jaina is now starting to like her bike. She asks to ride it to Skyler and Brayden's house. I told her by the end of the summer we would take her training wheels off so she can ride like a big girl

Some plants blooming

My purple Iris's

Walking the neighborhood

Saturday my uncle came over for burgers. The girls enjoyed him pushing them in the swing

Jolee kept saying "sving me Abbey"

Planted some new flowers around my tree

First rose bud of the year

I planted a red oleander

Creeping flox.

This morning Jolee and I headed to Bible study then we went and had lunch with daddy

While we were out for lunch the school called and said Jaina had 102 fever and that I needed to pick her up. Last night Jaina woke up twice crying and was really fussy, which is unusual for her. Then this morning she was even more fussy as we were getting her ready for school. I took her temp and it was normal so we sent her to school. The nurse said she couldn't come back to school until she was 24 hours fever free. So I guess she gonna hang out at the house. When she got home today she laid mostly in her bed, watched cartoons and colored.

I know there is a fever and headache virus that's going around so I'm guessing that's what shes got so we will just have to take it easy tomorrow

Tonight I mowed and got our back yard lookin more like spring

I even planted some lily's and some tropical canned lily's

And this little stinker is still not feeling to swift either even though she has stickers all over her face :)

Hopefully this virus will be out of the house by tomorrow and we can get back to normal life again

Justin's random pics

Today I was looking through Justin's pictures on his phone and found a whole bunch that he had taken of the girls that I've never seen before. Some of these were crackin me up, Lol

This one had me laughing, look at all those crayons

Playin with Tiny outside

:)

Haha!

Tiny's tongue is hanging out of her mouth

My pretty cowgirl playing dress up

And another pretty little girl playing dress up

I'm not sure what's going on here but I have a feeling this was taken at Skyler's house

Awww my sweet girl out on her date with her daddy

My sleeping angel :)

Love my girls!

Making a few changes

Doesn't Jolee look so cute in this little chair?

I think she needs one :)

For the last few weeks I have been trying to decide if I should put the girls in twin beds or bunk beds. I'm not a fan of bunk beds but I know the girls would LOVE them. I know whenever I went to friends houses when I was little who had bunk beds I was always excited to sleep on the top bunk.

I LOVE the bed that Jaina currently has but there's no way we could buy Jolee a matching bed and it fit in their room and have any extra space. Bunk Beds were our only option. I spent a few days looking and if you know me well then you no I CAN NOT make a decision to save my life. Today I happened to run by Ashley furniture and found these white bunk beds. I couldn't pass up the deal cause it was so good. Just 336.00 for both beds! And the best part is the beds pull apart from one another and you can have them sitting side by side.

These not as cute as Jaina's current bed but they will work and the girls will have many memories on these bunk beds.

After we got home this afternoon there was an Easter surprise from Gma DoDo and Richard

The girls were super excited!

They got a box full of spring clothes, Easter rabbits, candy and color books.

They loved it!

Today was the first day we have really been able to work out in the yard. The weather felt great and the sun was shining.

My Iris's are starting to bloom!

I'm so glad spring is finally here and winter is just about over.
