Sleeping

Love how she fell asleep wearing the 3D glasses. The little fingers, lips, chubby cheeks. I love it all.

Excited

I think Reagan is excited about vacation. We told them weeks ago we were going to Disney, Payton has been very excited talking about it but Reagan hasn't said much. I was even thinking does she realize where we're going?  Apparently she does but just hasn't showed us until just these past few days.  She has told Ms. Susan at preschool every day for 2 weeks that she feels excited because she is going to Disney World.  At 10:30 she was awake in her bed, cutting, coloring and taping something, she told me she was too excited to sleep because she's going to Disney tomorrow.  She brought me an adorable card that said Reagan Mme. Mme is Mommy. She's adorable how she is starting to try to spell words and read. She is picking words out of stories and recognizing them now.  She is getting way too big.  I'm glad Payton is better after having a double ear infection last week and we are so ready for vacation!

Payton and the Pig

This might be one of my most favorite pictures of Payton ever.  I love her smile, the little piece of hair sticking out of her hat, how carefully she's holding the baby pig. Everything.

I like thrift stores, I like rap songs, and I like challenges.  I had never heard the Macklemore & Ryan Lewis song Thrift Shop until my favorite DIY blog, Young House Love posted their Thrift Shop Challenge.

I was in. Finding time to get there was a bigger challenge.  I didn't have time to go to a thrift shop in the city which I'm sure would have scored many more interesting items but dragged my kids to the suburban Goodwill to see what we could find.  Here we go..."Ice on the fridge is so damn frosty"  well it was pretty frosty in the 30 degree, 30 mph wind gusts trying to get my 7 year old to take a picture and not lose the $20 in the process!

"They had a broken keyboard"  seriously, does every thrift store have one of these?

"Dressed all in pink, except my gator shoes, those are green"



"Draped in a leopard mink...."  Well, close enough

These had to be included just for the hilarity. 

 The fish sang and my girls thought it was hilarious! I do not ever remember seeing the McDonald's commercial that this guy sang about.  And also, there must be a reason why all singing fish you ever find at Goodwill still in the box!

And this was the biggest tv remote we'd ever seen!

And here's what I bought....

These still had the tag on the inside and do not look like they were ever worn.  Pink polka dot $50 Etienne Aginer wedges for $10

and a cute pink Pyrex bowl for $3.25 just like some olive green ones my Mom had. I don't know what I'll do with it but I had to have it.  $13.25 total!

I can't wait to see what everyone else scored for their $20!
