Tuesday Tidbits

1. As of today daddy will be home in 4 days! YAY. Were in the home stretch. He'll have been gone a total of 17 days, the longest he's ever been away. I will be so glad when he gets home and I know the girls will too. The girls have talked with daddy everyday since he's been gone. Sometimes through out the day both girls will say they miss daddy and they want him home.


2. On Sunday morning we left grandmas to head home for the day until she sent me a text saying they were having septic problems and it would probably be better to stay home (they had no water or toilets). So I decided yesterday that we would just spend the rest of the week at home. I'm hoping to get the girls back into their routine and hope that by doing so their behavior will improve. I am so glad to be back in my own bed again! After Kaylee got out of school yesterday I dropped them off for their usual Monday visit with grandma and collected the rest of our stuff. We've been doing good at home and I do see improvement in the way there acting. I really approximate all the help I got from Jason's mom the past week in a half. It helped me a lot!


3. This past week I've been a crafting machine. Doing a bunch of DIY crafts for the girls room. So while the girls were at grandmas yesterday I got to work putting all their new decor in its place. If you follow me on instagram you got to see a sneak peek but I plan to take better pictures with my good camera and do a whole post on their room. I have some more things to do before it's fully finished. I have to get 2 20x30 frames and pick the pictures I want to use. I also want to print out a few more printables for both the girls and the baby's side. I also need to get more frames for the baby's side for her newborn pictures.


4. I have my 26 week dr appt on Thursday. Hopefully they'll tell me when I get to take the dreaded glucose test and I have to get my Rh shot by 28 weeks (I'm Rh negative). We're getting closer to the 3rd trimester and I feel like we have so much stuff that we need to get. I've slowly been getting smaller size clothes 0-9 months. (I know your probably asking shouldn't you have all those sizes already since I have 2 young toddlers? My answer is when I thought we were done have babies I actually sold almost all of the girls clothes...so now I have to start over. I also sold a lot of their blankets, which is why I'm making some). It's time to bust out my pen and paper and start making a list of things I need to get.


5. Sunday night was the finale of The Bachelorette and I was so happy that she picked Jef. They make a cute couple. I though her and Arie had more of a physical connection then anything else. But I'm excited to see who they pick as the next bachelor, maybe Sean. Monday night I watched the first episode of Bachelor Pad. I've never watched it before but it seems like it'll be good entertainment.


6. I really need to start thinking about Keira's 2nd birthday. On the 29th of this month she'll be 20 months old which leaves me 4 months tiller birthday but I have to remember ill have a newborn right before her birthday so I need to figure out a theme and start slowly working on the decor so that I have it all done and taken care of before new baby K comes. There are so many cute ideas out there that I've pinned on pinterest but I just don't know. Any ideas???


7. I've been a pinning machine on pinterest pinning newborn poses and sibling poses that I can't wait to try with the girls. For their sibling pictures I want them all to be wearing lace petit rompers. Kaylee already has a brown one so I need to pick two more colors for Keira and the baby... Ideas on what colors I should for them that match brown??
