A few things that we have been up to . . .

We finally got a dresser for Ashlyn's room. It has been a long process... first of all getting our desktop out of there (happened in April), then switching out some bookcases (happened in August), and finally clearing out enough space to make room for a dresser (happened in September).... and through all this I have seriously been checking D.I. and craigslist religiously for a cute antique-looking dresser that I could fix up myself. But every time I would find one I liked that was in my price range, Collin wouldn't be available to go pick it up, or someone else would have gotten to it first.... you know. So when I came across this one on craigslist it was a little more than I wanted to spend.... but then again it was already redone and ready to use. So it was worth it! I am still hoping to change out the knobs for some cuter ones, but for now that is pretty far down my to-do list. It is SOO awesome to have a place to put her clothes, besides in bins under the changing table and hanging in the closet! Hallelujah!

p.s.--note the super-adorable decor and wall-paintings, courtesy of my amazing SIL Megan! Check out her website www.paperroutestationery.com !!



I put in a DVD that was in the back of one of Ashlyn's board books... about Farm Animals. Seriously, both her and Lucy were glued to the screen. I thought it was so funny. See how intently they're watching the little pigs and chickens.


Art in the Park! Why not get out to walk around and look at weird stuff for free on a summer evening? Not to mention grab some delicious fair food?! Ashlyn is a super happy camper in this backpack (that was a gift-YO!) and had a good time.


Lucy was in absolute HEAVEN given the fact that there was smooshed food on the ground every few feet, and lots of other dogs to meet. So funny.

side note: I LOOVE how Boise weather is so summery even through mid-September!



I just had to post this picture for my own enjoyment. I think it is absolutely hilarious. When Lucy is tired (or bored) she will just come into whatever room I'm in, sigh a big "humph" and lay down like she is dead. It is so freaking funny.

I'm commenting for both this post and Ashlyn's post. SO FUNNY. Maybe it's just because we have the same sense of humor, but I was laughing so much reading about her because I could just hear your voice saying all those things. And that stern look she's giving you while Collin is reading says to me "Get yo' camera outta my face, YO!" Hahaha! Oh, and the picture of Lucy lying dead on the floor, also a classic.
