It's A New KITCHEN! (and half bath)

These past two weeks our house as been a little upside down!

It all started when momma and papa took everything out of the kitchen and the laundry room.





The next day a group of men came over and pulled off all the cabinets and took our washer and dryer and put it in the garage.





I wasn't sure what was going on- but I was able to eat in front of the TV and watch all the TV I wanted! I was NOT going to complain! ;)

The dining table was in the living room, the fridge was in the front and we were eating off paper plates and washing our cups in the bathroom sink. How silly!!

I even got to take naps over at my me ma's house! I didn't nap the first day, but after that I was pretty good about taking my naps.

It was loud and I couldn't go in the kitchen at all, but I made a new friend. My mommy calls him Mr. BT, but I insist on calling him Mr. T. I am not sure why everyone laughs when I say that. Mommy says that he is the man that is giving me a new kitchen and a brand new half bath. How exciting!!!


SO after a long wait here it is! There are a few finishing touches to be done, but overall it is just, completely, perfect!












This isn't it either! In a few weeks Mr. T and his crew will be back and they will be converting the living room (spare living room) into a bedroom. SO our little 2 bedroom-1 bath is now going to be a 3 bedroom 1.5 bath! ;)

Mommy is beyond happy and excited. She even started talking to me about becoming a big sister....hm mm.... but I guess that is a whole different story for a different time!


(If you are looking for a up grade or re-model I HIGHLY recommend BT and his crew. Wonderful work at an affordable price. ;) And no- they didnt pay me to say that! ;) )

Happy Birthday to ME!!

Can you believe it? I am already two!

Mommy told me a few months ago that we were going to skip having a party because all of momma and papa's savings were going into a new kitchen and half bath. BUT of course the guilt got the best of her and she changed her mind (twice!) and decided that she would feel bad if she didn't do something for my birthday. ;) Mommy knows I will never remember my early parties, but that isn't the point. The point is that I enjoy it in the moment.





On my actual birthday, I had family come over and we played and had a little dinner and I got to open presents (my favorite party!). The next day my Aunt Amber, and Uncle Aaron took me to Animal Jungle and let me pick out my very own fish!

I (with mommy's help) named him ROCKETFISH! What do you think?



Next was my birthday party and Hunt Club farm was the location! Some of my friends and I will enjoy playing at the farm, petting and feeding animals and jumping in some bounce houses!


I love watching Little Einsteins, so we made it a Little Einsteins on the farm theme!


We had a very hard time narrowing down the guest list. Sadly, many places limit you to the amount of people. This one was 50. I know, you think...50!?!?! Well- they count everyone including adults! And when 20 of those are simply family members.... it adds up very quick. I wish I could have had all my friends, but sadly that wasn't possible.


Momma made cake pops and even decorated Styrofoam cubes to stick the pops into. Sadly the combination of icing and holes- created a blockage and Momma was having a terrible time getting the cake pops into the "cake". So after having a quick panic, Papa ran out to the store and grabbed a sheet cake. Momma changed plans and stuck the cake ball pops in the cake instead! PHEW!!!!


Everyone had so much fun at the party, me too! After playing we went back into the much needed, heated party room and have chicken nuggets (my favorite!), fruit and cake pops!

Everyone seemed to enjoy the rocket momma made for the party too!



Thank you everyone who came and everyone who thought of me on my special day!!!

Where did November go?

November came and went. I had my first "real" Thanksgiving this year. Last year mommy didnt want me eating too many "fancy" things since I was still getting used to solid food. This year was very different! I had sweet rolls, and cranberries, turkey, mash potatoes, green beans, sweet potatoes, and lots and lots of pie! Yummy!

And before I knew it, November was gone. BUT there was very exciting news for mommy, pappa, and me. Momma has been wanting an updated kitchen for years. And though it never happened, momma has been saving up for either a new kitchen or to help out with a move. You see, my parents werent thinking too far ahead into the future when they bought their house. It is a two bedroom and one bath home. So now that I am wanting to be a big sister, it's time to think about getting a bigger place.

They had a very nice realtor come over too look at the house, but very sadly momma said the market isnt good and there is really no possible way to sell the house. BUT the realtor gave momma and pappa some very good ideas and with the help of a sweet friend and her hubby- Our two bedroom,one bath house is quickly going to become a 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath! This will help us out greatly! Not only does momma and pappa not have to worry about having enough rooms for another little one, but also when the market get better they can hopefully sell the house easier. So fingers crossed for the up and coming changes! Pictures of course to follow!
