No Pictures

I really hate being limited on my picture uploading. It’s made me kind of not want to blog or share pictures.  I hope this weekend to get caught up on uploading pictures while i’m visiting my sister’s. I also hope to upgrade our internet  sometime this winter so i can upload more.

But her’s a rundown of what we have been up too.

Monday: Josh was home all day, so we ended up running errands in the afternoon. Bella seemed to enjoy it a lot. We also worked on carving pumpkins.

Tuesday: Bella and I went to playgroup. It was dress up day, so everyone came in their costumes. Bella did very well in hers minus the hat. Though she can put the hat on all by herself.  We also visited Daddy at work. Josh has been working at a friends of ours so Bella has enjoy playing out in the yard.  After a late nap and lunch, we played outside for a bit. 

Today: We went to storytime. Bella is really getting into the kids and sort of the story part. I’m really getting into being able to take to other mothers and adults!

All this week i’ve worked on attempting to declutter our house. I”ve already gotten to our linen closet, Bella’s room and half of our kitchen. I know most of th stuff is downstairs but every little gone is a little more room!  Josh and I also got the car port cleaned up, under neath too!

Bella has been thinking she only needs one nap a day and been going to bed then early. This is only kind of nice, as it would be nice for her to stay up a bit so that Josh, Bella and I can hang out a bit.  Also I miss the break to get more work done around the house.  She also likes to “use” a spoon or fork with her meals. She’s good at getting the food off the spoon with her hand and then feeding it to herself.

We also Fingerpainted today and she didn’t try to eat it at all!  She is really growing up!

Finger Painting

After Playgroup on tuesday, Bella wouldn’t nap, so we decided to finger paint. This is something I hadn’t done since end of july with her, so I thought we would give it another go. This time i only made one color and made the paint a bit thicker. I just flour and water with a little food coloring. I jsut mix the flour and the water til it’s how think i want it.

Our Busy week.....so far

So I meant to post this yesterday, but yeah totally didn't happen. But hey at least the weekend is caught up right?
Anyhow... Monday morning, I finally came back home. WIth me came Sara and her friend. They had fun exploring the farm and cleaning up Bella's new playset. Once it was cleaned up JOsh put it together and it's been a hit for all three girls!
Tuesday, the girls have helped watch bella for me. I got all the rooms cleaned but the computer room. I still need to do floors but that's a today job. We tried to go to the pool but it was closed to non-members for whatever reason. But i did get to go to the grocery store and get food and snacks. The girls took bella most of the afternoon outside for me.
When it came swimming lesson time, the girls came with and got to enjoy the park. I had a good time at lessons, talking with the other mommies. I was bummed to hear that One mommy and her son won't be there on thursdayThat night we ended up having a bon fire and roasting Smores.
Wenesday was a crazy messy day! I decided after some major cleaning on tuesday i would get a day off.. So after walking and hanging out outside. The girls got to name some calves(we had two born on tuesday). they have also been in love with the kittens.
After lunch, I brought out the finger paints for Bella. This time i used flour and water with food coloring. Oh that was a mess!! also it didnt' work right for getting finger prints :( not too sure if i had it too running or what not,. But Bella had fun, as did the girls. Then I attempted to get Bella's hand print in a plaque that iv'e had since before she was born. I wanted to use it when she was little little, but didn't get around to it, so I thought a year was a good time...Oh it was too tough. Bella would use her finger to poke holes in the modling clay. So yeah I ened up useing her feet... i'm nto sure how it will turn out. I might have to find another one and try her hands again.
We also let bella play in her pool. She enjoyed haveing two people to play with her toys.
I manged to get one scrapbook page done and fill up my digital pictures frame with pictures from Bella age mintues old to first week in july. If i would re-size the pics i can get more of july on ,w hich i might do if i have time.
We took all three girls to the Library so that bella could get new books and the girls got a movie and magazines. So while bella napped, the girls watch a movie. we had pizza for supper,,,which bella loves! and then we packed up and all of us went to see Ice Age 3.
It was a good movie, but a bit scarier than the first two, IMO. Bella did so-so at the movie.. By no means is she ready for movies yet, but I think i missed about 15 mins as did josh of the movie, but we did get her to settle down and she fell asleep in the last 5 mins. Once we came home it was bedtime for all!
today is baking day! Pictures to come later too!
Oh tooth number 5 broke through,..not the one i thought, but we are up to 5 teeth now!
