Saw it on Pinterest

Usually Bailey doesn't let me do her hair, but today she liked something i had pinned and asked me to do it, so I had to take the chance while it was there. She has long super thick hair, so I always have a hard time with it, but I think it ended up pretty cute! (though not nearly as cute as the one on pinterest) The pictures aren't very good, but that is a french braid on top.  I would bet money though, that it is a complete disaster when I pick her up from school today!

Hair fix

 After the Haircutting incident we had to go get Marlees hair fixed a bit.

 We decided to go all the way and get it cut short. She kept saying she was nervous
before we went, but really she just seemed excited.

 She wasnt happy that she had bangs, but since she had cut some herself, it was the only way to go.

I think its pretty darn cute! All the curl is gone, but i am good with that.

Bay's From The Country...

... And she likes it that way!

Marlee Made Me A Craft

Today while I was making dinner Marlee Came and got the kids scissors and some thread and told me she was going to make me a craft. When I went to check on her 5 mins later I noticed some hair on the ground. And then some more. And then yet a little bit more. Im just happy that it is not as bad as it could have been! 

She's Walking!

K, so this is Greenlei walking today! The crazy part is though that yesterday 4 steps was the absolute MAX that she could walk and then today she just finally seemed to be interested in walking. She kept walking when she wanted to get somewhere and would just go until she fell over or got where she was going. She's so stinkin' cute! (PS please excuse the choc. milk stains on her outfit. Why are kids always a mess when I finally make the effort to post about them?

Greenlei's 1st Birthday

Green Bean turned 1 this week! We had Grandma and Grandpa Stewart, and Jade and her boyfriend TJ (not to be confused with Josh's brother TJ, that would be gross) over for dinner.  It was good times, Josh made Tilapia and mashed potatoes and yorkshire puddings. 

After dinner she opened her presents.

 She was so cute and held up her presents and would show what she got.

Her  card from the Stewarts sings the winnie the pooh theme song when you open it, which she loved.

Josh and I got her this cute little car. you put little palls in a hole on the steering wheel, and you can make them shoot out the front.

I made Lemonade cupcakes with Raspberry frosting for dessert ( yup, saw it on pinterest).
They were good, but not a new fave or anything.  The butter wasn't quite soft enough, so the frosting
is a bit lumpy. 

 She started off slow and cautious, but eventually got into the cupcake and made a nice mess.

Here she is all cleaned up after the cupcake and in one of her new outfits
and her new bracelets. Such a cutie.

She was so adorable, and I think she had a pretty good time.  I know I did!

11 Months

The Green Bean is 11 months now! (okay, you're right that happened like 2 weeks ago.) She is growing a ton and getting cuter and funner by the day.
Since the last time I posted about her she has gotten her first 2 teeth, learned to climb the stairs, she stands alone pretty well now. She took her first couple of steps on her 11 month day after much encouragement. I dont think she is really interested in walking. She waves bye- bye. She still pretty much just say "ya" and "da", and that the occasional "hi". She loves to eat now. That took forever! She loves beans, and those little yogurt bite snack thingys. She also loves Life cereal.She is not into baby food though, and whines when I feed it to her. Just today she started giving kisses. a big ol open mouth kiss, but still cute.
