Friday Favorites

By
This week we spent a lot of time playing music. For Kenzie's birthday we got her a music set made by Melissa and Doug (I think I have mentioned before how much I LOVE their products) and we have spent quite a bit of time singing all the songs we usually sing in storytime while being accompanied by various instruments. The kid definitely has the rhythm in her.


I broke out my yoga ball this week. I have tried to spend at least 20 minutes or so a night sitting on it, doing hip circles and what not. I can't help it that I also seem to require ice cream while I do that...


I was able to work this past Saturday. I worked with a little girl that drew me a picture before she left. I seriously love what I do. I get to be a stay at home mom but still get to use all that schooling and work experience I have and work with some cute kids. This made my day. (And yes... my hair is purposely two different colors as I explained to her that I haven't dyed it in months. Also, my name is phonetic... good try!)


Kenzie loves to go to Publix. She not only gets a cookie but periodically she gets spoiled by the people that work there. One time she was given popcorn chicken because I explained to the lady that offered her a cookie that she had already had one. This week she got a balloon and was over the moon. She chose a "boo bawoon" and was so excited to get it home. She couldn't wait to show it to Daddy.


I can't wait to see how she transitions into a big sister. Kenzie loves to "kiss" and "hug" Will as much as possible. This week she even tickled him and laughed hysterically because she knows how much she loves to be tickled. It's moments like this that I would never change for the world.


What were your favorite moments of your week?

The Doc is In!

By
Today we celebrated THREE with Kenzie! We had her official 3rd birthday party. She doesn't actually turn 3 until Thursday, but her birthday today with friends and family was a definite success. The most adorable Doc there is I admit, I'm a bit crazy. I start planning birthday parties months in advance. I have been planning Will's first for months already and his isn't for another 2 1/2 months. Anyway, Kenzie and I talked about it a few months ago and she elected to choose a Doc McStuffins themed birthday party this year. I will post another day about the decorations that I created for this party, but for now... a photo dump in honor of our little Doc turning 3. Our spread was pretty yummy, if I do say so myself. Everything from "Stuffy's Dragon Tails" (fruit kabobs) to "Squeakers Fishy Friends" (goldfish) and "An Apple a Day Keeps the Doc Away" (applesauce packets and cups). Will spent most of his tim...

New State Parks, Beaches, Movies, and Friend Time

By
Another weekend has been put in the books for the Young Household. This weekend was actually a bit less crazy than some of our others, I think but still filled with fun and some new things. We started Friday afternoon when Steven was able to come home an hour or so early. We started getting ready for our big Saturday plans and then made pizza and sat down to watch a movie. We love this Friday tradition. We try to do it at least a couple times a month. We used to order pizza but when we started watching our finances closer, we determined that it was better for us to make pizza either homemade or frozen (and the kids like frozen pizza as much as pizza from a restaurant right now so we will continue to capitalize on that for a while... Will loves homemade but Kenzie is in a current anti-homemade stage because she is weird). Anyway, we made a frozen pizza and some cheesy bread. Then we sat down together to watch Inside Out. We picked it up at the library last week and never had a chance ...

Young Summer of Fun - Bucket List Update (Week 12)

By
Honestly, I debated doing a weekly update for this week because we didn't actually check anything off the summer bucket list... but decided to go ahead and do it because we did do some fun stuff. Plus, there are only two more weeks of this (including this one) so anyone that is actually interested can read it if they want. =) This week was fairly low key. Steven was dealing with his shingles diagnosis so we didn't do anything too crazy because the main reason he likely came down with it was because he is so run down and stressed out. Kenzie had school all week. Well, except Monday but on Monday's, we dance. She did great at dance by the way! She goes to dance each week and then spends the next 6 days asking us if she has dance. We made her a calendar for the fridge that lists her activities and dance is on it. We cross off each day so she can count down to dance. Doesn't matter. She still asks. Wishful thinking, I guess. And she is still rocking school. She is doing...
