New light!

So with the new addition of my shower curtain, it quickly became evident that I needed more light while showering…it was like showering in a cave.  The curtain is very dark and thick and didn’t let much light in.  So I asked Austin if he wouldn’t mind putting a recess light above my shower and he got really excited and did it the next day.  I love my husband.  He is such a handy man and he loves to do projects around the house.  So anyway, I now have a sweet new light!

 

 

Apple chips anyone?

So I found another new love.  It’s a dehydrator.  My mother in law let me borrow hers and I made apple chips today.  It is sooo stinking easy to do.  I have a bunch of onions going to waste outside, so I’m excited to use this dehydrator  to make dried onions.  Anyway, hope you all are having a good week!

Slow news day…

So I feel like the people on the news when they do a 20 minute segment on Darla the hula hooping poodle and after it’s all over you think, “Wow, must be a slow news day.” Nothing really fantastic or exciting has been going on since I last posted. There are a few things, so here we go!

So I have been wanting to buy new floor and toilet mats for my bathroom because the whole look of it was starting to feel like an old woman had picked out the colors. It was a pale green color before and I had a boring old white shower curtain. Well, I happened to be perusing Target the other day and found these glorious soft brown ones. They were amazing and I had to have them. When I went home and switched everything out, it still looked dumb. Then I remembered seeing these really awesome shower curtains at Bed, Bath, and Beyond. I distinctly remembered seeing the price tag saying $16.99. So last night we went to look at them again, and the price was not$16.99. It was $39.99. $40 for a shower curtain! I quickly got disappointed, but my dear hubby told me I could get it anyway. I sure do love him… Anyway, last night as I was putting the curtains up, I looked at the tag to see how to wash it and it said Dry Clean only. DRY CLEAN ONLY! You mean I seriously have to take my shower curtain to the dry cleaners! Good grief… But they looked absolutely awesome, so whatever. Now for a new vanity… :)

This picture does not do justice for how awesome those curtains are. Am I seriously getting excited about a shower curtain – yes I am!

Thought I would share a funny story about Kylie. The other day I had just gotten clean sheets out of the dryer and was putting them on our bed when Kylie starts crying and backing away onto the other side of the bed. I asked her what was wrong and I don’t know what she’s saying, but she’s pointing to something on the floor. I look over expecting to see a spider or something. But no, its worse than that….its…a…DRYER SHEET! Oh yes, the ever scary dryer sheet. When I picked it up to show her what it was and that it wasn’t scary, she started sobbing her eyes out. Yeah, most kids are afraid of the boogey man or the dark. My kid is afraid of dryer sheets….

Well folks, that’s all I’ve got. Tune in next week when I talk about how many poopy diapers I’ve changed. Jk, I’m sure something more exciting will have happened by then.

Labor Day

So for Labor Day we decided to go up American Fork Canyon and have a brunch.  Since we were all sick of eating hot dogs and hamburgers, we decided to do breakfast.  It was so nice to just be outdoors and relax for a while.  Austin brought his hammocks (which are so dang comfortable) and we just sat around and ate, layed in the hammocks and played cards.  I really had a great time.

 

Uncle Dobaley and Kylie.  So Kylie can say everyone’s name but Jordan’s for some reason.  She calls him Dobaley :)

The Sweet Tooth Fairy Bake Shop

I found my new love….  If anyone hasn’t been here before, you need to go!  Seriously.  It’s this little bakery shop in Provo that’s located right next to the Quilted Bear on University Avenue.  I had a strawberry shortcake cupcake and Austin had a cream cheese brownie.  Now I’m not really a cupcake fan, but this one was to die for.  Anyway, that’s my advertising for the day :)

The yummy goodness before it was ingested into my belly

Kylie hyped up on her lollipop

Well it’s no Van Gogh, but Kylie likes it :)

Well I got Kylie’s bowl back from Color Me Mine.  It’s a tad bit hideous, but Kylie loves it.  I love her little green hand print.  Sorry, I couldn’t get any decent pics of Kylie this morning because she was too interested in stuffing her face. 

I had to take a few pictures of her this morning.  I’m sorry, but I have the cutest kid in the world.  She is so darn beautiful and I thought she looked so cute today.  Can you tell I’m a proud mom? :) 

Wow, can we say glued to the TV?  (Like her bling by the way?)

She’s such a happy kid
