You'll get a surprise....

The best thing in the world.....get the kids to clean up their playroom and they get a surprise. The best part is, the surprise is something we already had they had in the attic that we bought 5 years ago.

So, last night I decided this playroom has got to get clean, and I was not going to be the one doing it AGAIN!! So, while I was cooking dinner I told Madelyn and Lilly you clean up this play room and you will get a "surprise"--They were psyched.

They cleaned it all by themselves except for a few puzzle peices and play kitchen pieces that were "hidden" that I am anal about (when I actualy do clean :P) So after dinner the surprise came down out of the attic.

A HUGE blow up Hippo that you can climb in and it has a ball pit in the back of it. We bought it for Madelyn when she was like 15 months old, when we lived in our apartment, funny thing is Josh and I remembered it being a LOT bigger than it was last night. Maybe because we lived in matchbox sized apartment then. Who knows.

Regardless, the kids loved it, they worked up a sweat jumping, playing, building forts last night. It was PERFECT, and it wore then slap our for bed time, the even better part of the surprise.

So now, what can I pull out of the attic for Christmas......

Hugs,

It's been a while!!

It's been so long since I have blogged on here. SORRY!! What have we been up to, well Josh is working like a mad man, I am doing the million things that I do, Madelyn still loves cheerleading. Her football team she cheers for incidentially has won every single game so far this season. I see playoffs in our future.....who knew-At least I get my $145 worth :o)

We went camping over Labor day weekend at Stone Mountain with some friends of ours from church, Ray, Maria, Levi & Eli. We had a great time!! Definately soemthing we will have to do again. We love them!!!


I decided that I will post daily (so me in your favorites list) something wild, wacky, wonderful, or delightful the I, Josh, the kids or any thing else that may have amused me that day.

This morning my funniness.....Lilly wants to dress her self these days. This morning we ended up with a busted pull-up, then a new clean one, that was no good, she wants to be a BIG girl so we put on sissy's big girl panties. Once that was settled she got her head stuck in her pajama top, we solved that.....after that her head got stuck in her shirt. That was solved. The pants....that is her thing. She did that herself, no assistance. We left the house like this....in a frenzy as usually but lilly was sporting, her shirt in the right order, her pants on.....but backwards and inside out. She looked alot like a baseball umpire. She insisted on no help from Mommy!!

She is my angel!!


Lots of Hugs & Kisses,
Adriane
