WHAT's Happening??

We have our 1st household LOOSE TOOTH!!! The tooth fairy will soon be visiting, and as I watch Nolan wiggling the tooth....it may be tonight.
He just said that he hoped the Tooth Fairy brought him lego's. Hmmm.... really? It's not just a cash business??! I'll have to check my Tooth Fairy manual.

And...
No commitments yet... but, we started the financial process for pre-approval of a new home loan. Ugh and Yah! Nerve wracking!
What will we qualify for, with only 1 income now!?
How can I keep the house clean for sale, with a 3 and a 6 year old that destroy everything in their wake?!
Packing; Moving; Unpacking - Ugh, ugh, ugh!
But the yah - Being closer to school; Being in an area that will hold home value or increase; And, just the excitement of a new house! (Is that a Yah! or an Ugh!?)

Aunt Carol is the BomB!



Yes - Aunt Carol gets her own spot for the birthday celebration, because our house has not been the same, since JJ opened her presents!

There were many (as usual)...but ONE, BY FAR, has been the favorite.

JJ's Tent! or "My hide", as she calls it! (As in Hide & Seek)

She has not slept in her bed for over 2 weeks now! But, I have to admit - it's pretty darn good sleep she's getting in there....even if she can't stretch out! LOL! (Look real hard in the bottom pic...she's sound asleep...the flash of the picture is what woke her up that morning!)

Art Time


So, JJ's party was supposed to be a tea party. We bought the tea set and planned a day to have fun and paint.

While the kids did make lots of masterpiece's... Mom didn't have enough time for the setting, heating, etc. So - the tea party was a scratch!

Oh well - if Mom ever gets to heating the tea set - she'll have a great set to play with! LOL!

February Birthdays!



Once, again... the mom is a month behind!

But, with 3 birthday's in the house... How can I be on time?

Nolan celebrated at Incredible Pizza...with classmates and neighborhood friends. Can you say CHAOS??!! Mom was a bit nuts! The kids had a blast... I think glow-in-the-dark putt putt golf was Nolan's favorite, but he also tried his hand at bumper cars and bowling.
Christian was our savior for Jillian. She wandered off with him to the Tiny Town area & he kept her entertained for an hour, before Mom came to her senses and wondered where she was!! LOL!

Jillian's birthday was just a little Princess lunch with the neighbors and new friend, Ellie. (Her future classmate at SSFC!) We followed JJ's birthday party, with Ellie's just 3 days later! Perfect swap!

And, then there was the big girl, Ash! The big 21! While she celebrated her actual birthday in her hometown...she came here for the weekend. We bar-hopped and danced til 3 AM. We even got her to ride the mechanical bull!! Don't worry - I do have video that I will upload soon!! LOL!

It was a blast of a month!! And, it flew by!!
