I guess if I learned anything (silly, Of course I learned many things) from my mom, it is...re-arrange your furniture if you have nothing else fun to do!!!! I love this about my mom, she just up and moves things and it always looks so great. Now my dad (and therefore my husband) are not so fond of re-arranging day, as they have a lot of pictures to move and holes to fill and big things (like a mattress and box springs) to carry to the attic!! But I love transition and then I am a little demonic (again, like Linda) about getting everything finished before you can go to bed!!! So although my kids were ready for bed...Too bad!
Anyway it was my 8 year old who said to me "mom, lets re-arrange when we get home" And I thought sure why not! (she looks all Rose, but underneath she is 100% pure Nana!!) hahahaha
So she has decided (Kennedy) that she wants her own room, and this is something we have been talking about for a long time, only I thought we would wait until we moved again (unavoidable) and then let her have it...but then I was thinking, what if for some (God) reason we don't move this year, why shouldn't she get her own room now??? So I moved Emerson's crib into Macguire's room, only Mac had 2 twin beds in his room (Emy is not quite ready to be on the loose) so I had to dismantle that one and get her crib in the door. And can anyone out there please tell me why cribs always have to be like 1/2" too wide to fit through any doorway?? So I had to take 2 doors off their hinges (the lesser of the 2 evils, taking a crib apart ranks right up there) and roll the crib through and then clean everything, re-arrange and finally kids are in bed and all is well. So here is the scene, Mac (will be 5) and Emy (will be 2) are sharing a room, and Kennedy (8) now has her own room! But here is what happened...Mac came into Kennedy's room to check it out and Kennedy asked him if he wanted to spend the night in her room!!! So I pulled out her trundle bed and got it made and they are still slepping in the same room! Emerson is probably really confused about why I put her in this boy room, and she is by herself! Crazy!!!!! Kennedy siad to Mac "you are my best brother" and I was like awww sweet, even if he is your only brother!!
Macguire scored 3 goals today! He had so much fun! And when he wasn't playing Corey told him he had to cheer for his teammates and he was yelling Go Team , Go Team and it was so cute! He is finally wearing size 4 T pants!!! This is a big deal for us, he hasn't grown in like 2 years! On the other hand I cannot get Kennedy to stop growing and jeans my mom bought her last year at Christmas are so short on her!!! She's getting tall! And then my Emy, 21 months old and weraing 12-18 month clothes, obviously takes after her brother! I have a friend who has a 6 month old who weighs the same as Emerson! Oh well
Seriously about Linda and re-arranging... I am a little nostalgic right now so I will just say, she could really transform our house into a great place for the holidays!!! It is always so comfy and homey and peace-like and I know she spends a lot of time making it so nice, and it truly is! I am so happy by this and am so looking forward to seeing them next month!
Okay lets talk humidity! I am sorry to complain about things but really...for 5 days straight it has been about 82 degrees and humidity of 100% That is really pushing me to my limits!!! When I walk outside, my hair curls, I breathe in water, and am instantly glistening with sweat. Yuck! I was so happy that we finally got the rain part of humidity tonight! Hopefully that has broken the spell.
Speaking of spells reminds me that 2 girls who go to Belhaven are going to a costume party next week and one of them is dressing up as a "Hooters" girl. And I am seriously thinking what is this about? Also I am secretly wondering why she thinks she will have to dress any differently then she does everyday!!! Okay, that wasn't too nice sorry!!
There is no glory in practice but without practice there is no glory!
Loving my life
