Victoria and Waverly opted to stay home with me, while Scarlett and Lincoln went along with daddy to pick up a few miscellaneous things.
Waverly persistently tries to get that thumb in her mouth, but can't usually get the mechanics down and winds up sucking on her fist instead. While I was cuddling her in the morning, she was dozing in and out and voila! - in went the thumb! But... not in the traditional way. She had a problem with her fingers open like this as she kept poking herself in the eye, lol. It was just so cute :-)
When I had taken Scarlett and Lincoln to Barnes & Noble on Friday night (while Victoria was at the Braves game), Scarlett purchased her very first Beanie Boo. Her friend Olivia has quite the collection and Scarlett has been interested to pick one out, and this was the first time the opportunity arose. Of course, this meant Victoria needed one :-p So Scarlett eagerly led her over to the little stand of Boos and helped her choose the perfect one.
I am not exaggerating to say they spent a solid twenty minutes agonizing over the decision.
Lincoln spent a long time looking at toys, games, and having me read him (574) books. He had brought $20 from his piggy bank so that he could buy a Clifford stuffed animal that he had been eye-ing for a while.
Miss Wide Eyed!
Playing at the lego table - Scarlett told me to look on the internet and see if I could find one of these lego tables, ha! She said, "They're so perfect - one spot for each of us so we don't have to fight about it." Very true ;-)
The work area in our master bedroom - we added a second desk section to this Ikea Expedit system. Now I have a work table (Jim's is on the left, mine is on the right) for blogging, assembling the next day's school materials and so forth and so on. I LOVE IT!!!! I'm going to paint the black chalkboard square behind my desk to match the one behind Jim's desk and then I'll write in chalk "His" and "Hers" :-)
A glimpse into the Playroom to Family Room makeover - great progress! A barren wasteland of toys into a multi-purpose, de-cluttered room :-) Thanks babe for all your hard work!
Downstairs looks great! What kind of boos did the girls get. Olivia will be excited to see them!
ReplyDeleteThanks Amanda!
DeleteAs to Boos, Scarlett got a puppy (named Cookie) and Victoria got a tiger (named Stripey).
Yes the basement looks awesome! Would love ideas for the back part of ours :)
ReplyDeleteAnd Scarlett did have quite the logical point about the Lego table, but where would it o?
