Crazy Lady!!!

"Mommy, what are you doing?" asked Kenzie as Maddie looked at me with wondering eyes... "I am cleaning some things up for Yaya and Pappy to come see you" I replied. "Oh, can I help?" Kenzie replied... "Sure, Kenzie, you can help by playing with sissy and cleaning your toys up" I told her. "No, Mommy, I am not a CRAZY LADY! I want to help YOU!" she said. So that is what she is into now. So as I wash the dishes, she puts them on the table after they have been dried, really causing me a little more work, but I don't mind. She wants to help and I let her. When I sweep, she sweeps and I sweep again. Same thing when I mop.... Then we move on to some of the other little things I want done like the vacuuming, and she runs.... She is afraid of the vacuum... Then on to dusting... Which she loves! When I start dusting, she takes over... She even helps with the laundry! I am so fortunate to have a little helper in her! I am so happy that she isn't a rebelliouse teenager yet! LOL! She is only 4 I will give her time! Maddie on the other hand wants to watch and then nap and then chase Kenzie then eat and start the process all over again! She is a hoot. Although, my mom is worried that she needs special shoes because her toes point in a little when she walks. I don't notice it much, but I will keep an eye on her, and then if I notice it getting worse, I will call the orthopedic doctor again and see what he says... She is growing up so fast. It is hard to believe that she is already 15 months old. Ryan is doing good. He is going to a U of L game of some sort tonight. I will have to get the info from him later. He loves going to any and all sports things that he can and his friend Ty was able to get tickets tonight... So, he gave one to Ryan. I am sure he will have a blast. Angel is doing great! I think we are about to nip the nibbling on us in the bud. She isn't doing it as much now that she is getting older and learning that it isn't acceptable. She is also not going potty in the house anymore... She had a few accidents in the beginning, but she was a brand new pup, so that is to be expected. Now, she knows that she goes outside and when she goes poop outside, she gets a treat! She is such a trooper. I am doing well as well. I have some samples on the way of countertops. I decided to pick a countertop for the kitchen and we will select our paint color from that, then in time when I have the extra cash, I will get new countertops put in. I think it will work very well that way. And when I do the new countertops, I will do a new backsplash in the kitchen. I want to update the kitchen as much as possible in the first few years of being here so that when we decide to sell, we have a great selling point. Since after all curb appeal, and the kitchen are the two main sellers of a house. I will be working on getting that bathroom floor done asap and I am going to talk to a few people I know to see what they would charge to do it for me. If I can get a cheap price, then I will take the help you better believe it. By the way, if any of you have any ideas for remodeling for me, feel free to share them. I know I need to go to a model home or two to see what the new homes are decorated like, but I also want to add my own touch to it also. Anyway, I guess that is all for now. I will post again when Kenzie gets home from school to let you know how that went today.
Love,
Dawn

Kenzie's day at school

Kenzie got off of the bus screaming, "Mom it snowed!" It was so cute. Then when I got into her backpack, I found her daily sheet with this on it... Kenzie had wrote her name (not perfect but she tried) and a note from the teacher above it saying "INDEPENDENT WRITING-- ONLY VERBAL PROMPTS!" I am so excited for her! We are definately getting somewhere. Then under the teacher comments part, I find... "SHE CAME IN TELLING ME IT WAS SNOWING-- SUPER EXCITED!" I too saw this when she got home! Construction Zone Newsletter Week 2 Dear Family, This week Kenzie will learn about solving problems. Using the topic "Build with Me," we will read stories about building things and working together to solve problems. You can help your child learn more by talking with him/her about things she/he is doing at school and the new letters and words that he/she is learning. Here are some ways that you can work with your child at home. Think and Talk: What did y...

And WINTER is here!

I look out the window to see.... A BLANKET OF SNOW! It is covering my driveway, walkway, yard.... and we are expecting more this week! I think it is safe to say that winter has finally decided to come! Don't get me wrong, snow is pretty, but I don't like it because that means I have to drive in dangerous conditions! I would much rather be driving in tropical storm force winds and rain (I have done this! When all the hurricanes were going through Florida a couple of years ago!). Now on to other things... Saturday: I had a really busy day. I was at work and didn't think it would ever end. Admissions and falls and sending people to the hospital... stabalizing others and stuff that goes on in the health care centers all the time. Sunday: Zach forgot to add me back into the schedule, so I got off at 2pm. Rode home with Maxx since he lives in Jeffersonville and Ryan and the girls were going to be at his house anyway. When we got there we watched a little of the game an...
