Summer Vacation Weeks 2-4

Our summer vacation has been pretty boring so far.  The girls have fun playing with their friends every day but we have yet to really go do anything (splash park, beach, lake, etc.) because of my working 3 days a week and so far my days off have all involved packing/getting ready to go to Crescent Bar, except for week 2 when I had a bad cold so still couldn't do much.

Week 2

Monday through Wednesday - I worked, girls with babysitter but played with friends a lot.
Thursday - wanted to take them up to see my mom but I had a bad cold so stayed home and cleaned while they played with friends off and on.
Friday - More of the same.  We were going to go to Target and a few other places but realized the booster seats were in Paul's car.

Week 3

Monday - work/babysitter
Tuesday - work/babysitter
Wednesday work/babysitter, then birthday party at friend's down the street
Thursday - Another day off spent packing for Crescent Bar, but we did get out and run some errands and get hair cuts.
Friday - Annual 4th of July community celebration with pony rides, face painting, bouncy houses, etc. then BBQ/party at a neighbors.













Saturday morning we left for Crescent Bar and stayed until Tuesday.

Week 4

Monday - At Crescent Bar
Tuesday - Home from Crescent Bar, another birthday party down the street.
Wednesday - I worked and the girls spent the whole day at a friend's.
Thursday - work/babysitter
Friday - work/babysitter, then Paul took them to Rattlesnake Lake when he got home.

Next week is Frozen Dance Camp (dance camp, where the theme will be the movie "Frozen").  A few of their friends are doing it also and they are going to love it.  And since I have to work M-W, one of their friend's moms is going to drive them there and keep them after until Paul gets home from work, so we don't need to have a babysitter all week.

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...
