the most random post ever.
my "baby hayes" post mentioned how extremely active she was during her ultra sound. the tech was chasing her all over the place and hayes was just having a ball in there. well, it was the first day that miss hayes has ever had a cup of non-decaf coffee. i think i drank o.j. before my 20 week ultrasound with sk and she was snoozing. at lunch yesterday i ordered a cup of regular coffee and got my little girl dancing! anyway, i wanted to document here on my blog that last night (like around 11 pm) hayes was still on her caffeine high and kicked me hard enough to where i could see my tummy jump. she's a night mover anyway, but until last night the feelings were much less noticeable. i love feeling her move and i wonder if she is going to be an active baby or if it was just the caffeine. sk was not active at all - rarely passed a kick count. we'll see - i feel her some now as i sit up in a chair to type but no major kicks like last night (maybe it was the coffee).
kick=)
sk likes to read these big look and find books. there's a key on the side of each big picture that tells the reader what to search for in the picture. sk loves for us to read it with her and then she loves to read it to herself as well. she'll say, "can you find donald duck?" "yes! there he is!" and so forth. my mom brought her a thomas the train one on monday. she already has the mickey mouse clubhouse book which she and my mom had read together alot last week.
i took these pics this morning with my iphone while she was reading on her beanbag.
this is what she does - she holds the book and looks at the cover and says, "the mickey mouse clubhouse, by eric carle." then she turns to the title page and again says, "the mickey mouse clubhouse, by eric carle." ha! cracked me right up! i think eric carle would be a little offended that the clubhouse book was mistaken for his famous work, but since she's 2 and has a big obsession with the very hungry caterpillar then he'd probably let it slide. same with the big sister book - "i'm a big sister, by eric carle." haha! she's a funny girl. a funny girl with only one author on her mind;)
last night we went over to sullivan's to eat dinner at poe's. we had a scantily clad princess friend tag along.
i think sk's mimi is on a mission to #1: make sure sk's princess collection is complete by Easter and #2: spoil my child. so this is the princess she received on my mom's last trip up. sk knows all about princess jasmine but has never seen aladin and yet, she is obsessed with this one so much! trey taped aladin the other night and she has since seen most of it now. it's not my favorite princess movie and i don't think sk loved it either, but we are big fans of jasmine and have gladly welcomed her into our home and at our dinner table....most of the time. she wanted to take her to church tonight but i just told her that jasmine could eat in the car. don't need any church folk thinking that i'm teaching my 2 year old to try to be all sexy like jasmine...her attire is a cultural thing and sk has told me that really jasmine should try to cover her tummy. it is what it is....a whole new world;) (no pun intended to those familiar with disney movie songs).
jasmine had a few bites of sk's corn flakes (sk loves corn flakes and wanted to take some with her for her appetizer. they are so bland!)
remember this.....
it's not 100% finished but it sure is close!
the fixtures (even the flusher) were changed to oil rubbed bronze so i bought a round oil rubbed bronze mirror. i also got the same kind of frame and put a beach pic of the girls in there. tomorrow after i drop sk off at school i'm going to go downtown to the market to see if i like any paintings to go on the wall (above the toilet paper....on that wall).
we picked out a lantern style light. and the light plate to cover our light switches is out of stock but that will be covered soon.
trey installed a brand new sink because he dropped a screw in our old one and it cracked it really bad. so random!
considering that this bathroom used to have maroon/navy striped wallpaper with charleston's rainbow row border and with all brass fixtures, i'd personally call this a huge improvement.
why does it drive me crazy that the t.p. is not centered in this pic? anyway, guests....you're welcome. you no longer should feel like you're going to hurl when you use our facilities. by the way....thinking of doing the nursery this color...maybe a blue with even a little more gray?? we went with the whole baby pink and pale green with sk and i want something different this time especially since sk's room isn't really changing that much. same color scheme in there. need to do something a bit different for hayes (and for me). ;)
how random was that madness?!!!
