Cuteness

 This is what you get when you change a diaper on the floor, turn your head, and leave the powder within reach.

 Chelsea decided her favorite sport right now is basketball. No, this is not a picture of a basketball, as I originally thought. This is her basketball jersey so cleverly pinned to her undershirt with a hair clip. (She got her sleeve wet earlier and insisted that she take her shirt off because she HATES wearing wet clothes.)

 When I took that picture of Chelsea, Brie insisted I take a picture of her, too. This is what she was doing at the time. She waited ever so impatiently for Abby to vacate the high chair so SHE could sit in it and read her books. And yes, this is my second half-dressed child running around today. (She dripped a drop of milk on her pants during breakfast and insisted on taking them off. They haven't made it back onto her body yet. It's only 3:20 in the afternoon. But she has peed in the potty twice today! Woot woot!)

 I couldn't take a picture of both Chelsea and Brie without then taking one of Abby in her current state. She wasn't happy for long in the walker. Now she's sitting next to me squealing away at her toys. Cuteness.

Here is our family project from FHE yesterday. Chelsea has these Disney Princess books that tell a story and then they have related games/crafts/activities in the back of each book. This was one of the crafts in an Aurora story where Aurora was showing her appreciation for her then husband, Prince Philip, after he had done something nice for her. She wanted to gather bunches of flowers to decorate their dance hall and then dance the night away. It didn't work out exactly like that of course, but then again, it wouldn't be an interesting story if it did. Anywho, they showed us how to make tissue paper flowers at the end, and so, of course, we did. It was a big hit. I now have orders to buy some other colors of tissue paper to add to our pretty bouquet.
 *salute* Yes, Ma'am. They are quick, easy, and cheap. In other words, perfect!

You can also see part of our pretty new kitchen table and part of a chair in this shot. We are enjoying our new addition very much!

Haha! I like the surprised look on Abby's face with all that powder. I also recognized the table and chair(s) as being new. They look nice! My next upgrade around here will be our couch. Unfortunately, Allen really likes our couch while I find it a little disgusting (we got it at DI).
