Last Storytime

When the girls were first born, one of the things I couldn't wait to do with them was storytime at the library.  We went for the first time when they were about 14 months old and have gone fairly regularly since.  Today was the last one until early September, at which time they will be in school on Wednesday mornings, so I made a point to go one last time.  They have a Monday afternoon storytime that we could still go to, and a Thursday evening pajama storytime, but after 3 1/2 years, today was it for Wednesday mornings.  So weird.

Another thing we'll never do again is the Sno Valley Indoor Playground.  We didn't go nearly as much last year as we had the previous year or two, but we did go one last time in May (they don't have it in the summer) because I had a punch card freebie to redeem.  They only have it Monday-Wednesday-Friday mornings during the school year, so that's now out for us, too.  It's kind of the end of an era.

Transfer Anniversary

Today is the 5-year anniversary of my embryo transfer!  5 years ago today I became pregnant with my girls (I wrote about it in more detail a few years ago).  It was a Saturday that year, also. Olivia and Kayley at 3 days post conception (wish I knew which one was which): And Olivia and Kayley 5 years later: That photo is actually a few weeks old.  I tried to take one for today and this is what I ended up with: {Sigh}

The Girls' Room

So it's kids' rooms this week at Kelly's Korner Home Tours.  Unfortunately, we haven't finished the girls' room make-over.  We recently transitioned from toddler beds to twins.  I would have loved to get bunk beds to save space, but the twin beds were given to us by friends of Paul's parents so we're making do.  They were wood-colored (oak, maybe?) so we painted them white.  It was challenging to figure out how to arrange their furniture because of the alcove/nook thingie on one side.  I couldn't do the obvious two beds perpedicular to the wall with a nightstand in between configuration, so I had to compromise. There are lots of finishing touches still to be done.  We need to replace their dresser, get a nightstand, put up a shelf (ledge) or two and some wall art, and curtains.  We're also going to paint.  I've had my heart set on purple for a long time, which is why I chose this bedding with some purple but not too much, but now...

Senior Prom

Last Friday was the girls' Senior Prom.  A whole group of them met at a nearby park for photos, then they broke off into smaller groups and went to dinner and Prom.  Olivia and her group rented an Air B&B for the night, and Kayley spent the night at a friend's house with another friend or two. Olivia and Gavin (just friends) Everyone Just the guys Just the girls Olivia and Kayley
