Big Girl Bed

Carsyn is in her on bed!!! Can I get a woo hooo! This child refused at 10 months to sleep in her crib and would wake up as soon as you put her in it. Yes we took the lazy easy way out at let her sleep in our bed until last Saturday June 19. Addison has wanted to sleep with her at night and Steve and I have our bed back so we are all sleeping peacefully again. We also put her rocking chair away and I was worried about her getting to sleep but turning on some Pachabel Cannon in D and a little backrub send her right into dreamland. I can't wait to get her new bedding and I will post some more pics.

Fathers Day

Thanks to my next door neighbor Amy I have had part of Steve's Father's day gifts for a few weeks. She invited Addison and I to go to Wired and Fired. It is paint your on pottery place and it was really cool. Addison being the crafty girl she is thought it was awesome. She painted a polk-a dot coffee mug orange and purple and a cupcake that had a removable lid- she said it would be perfect for Daddy to keep sugar in (Steve keeps a small sugar bowl right by the coffee maker). On Fathers Day we went to the Georgia Aquarium. I have been several times before but it is always just as a amazing as the first. The girls loved it too. Carsyn saw so many people taking pictures with there cell phones that at one point she took the one she was carrying and "took a picture". It was a great day except for the fact that I didn't get to see my Dad. I did get to wish him a Happy Fathers Day over the phone and will see him a good bit in July.

Man blogger has been giving me fits and it is driving me crazy. I can't use Slide.com for some reason and so I am having to change over to Photobucket and it is taking me some time to figure it out. Anyways Addison started her team gymnastics classes this month and I'll have to say it got off to a rough start. Thank goodness Grammy was here to help smooth it over. It is just a good bit
more intense than what her other classes were and it took a awhile to adjust but she loves it now. If I have said once Addison don't flip so close to the wall, your sister, or furniture I have said it a million times. She is currently mastering her bridge walk over and they have been doing a lot of vault and beam work recently. We also have another gymnast in the family- Carsyn. She LOVES it but is having to get use to the structure of taking turns and not being in the foam pit or on the trampoline whenever she wants. Here are some pics Audrey and I took. I don't have as many pics of Addison b/c they are never close enough to where we sit.

Wow what a busy month and July seems to be shaping up to be even busier! I feel like I am having to manage every minute wisely just to be able to make things work. I was really hoping my 2 day workk schedule would start on July 1 but we or they have yet to start interviews for another nurse. I plan on letting them know this week that when school starts back that is it for me and a five day work week. I am really looking forward to having extra time to do on the crappy adult stuff so I can have extra time doing all the awesome Mommy/ Family/Wife stuff. So to kick summer off we went to Chucktown as we SC local like to call it. I have been a millon times but I wanted Addison to experience the history of the town. Plus I needed to get in some practice of taking photos b/f my cousins wedding.
