We are still waiting for the full mattress we ordered 3 weeks ago! So you'll have to wait a little longer before I unveil pics of Baylor's new big boy room. Still working on a bedside table, lamp and stuff for the walls. But my sister-in-law gave me a bunch of great ideas today and my friend Beth agreed to paint a canvas. Whoohoo!

I also just finished reading Respectable Sins by Jerry Bridges. I felt convicted more than once while reading about the sins most of us Christians tend to overlook... judgmentalism, discontentment, pride of achievement and moral superiority, worldliness and sins of the tongue! Ouch! It was a good read and I recommend it!!

I also just started a facebook page to promote a fit and healthy lifestyle. Check it out. It's called Beachbody Fitness. One of the respectable sins I read about is self-control. And I'm glad to have more self-control with my body. It feels good to take care of what God has given me and hopefully be an example for others.

Big Boy Room

I've been working on turning Baylor's room into a big boy room. I've had the same nursery for 7 years and I'm sooooo sick of it! I painted the room, painted his new bed and dresser, bought a new rug and hung new shades. Once we get the mattress, a new lamp, and night stand, I should be set. Look for the final pics to come soon!

Fairy Tale Ball

The first graders at Dogwood had a Fairy Tale Ball last Friday. They had several stations that the kids rotated through. It was very fun and the kids looked adorable. Here are a few pics.

The Big One

Campbell's dance recital was tonight. She did a great job! She remembered the dance and kept smiling. We were so proud of her! She is a natural! She even got to wear make up. Notice our friend Ava on the back left and our friend Maggie right behind Campbell. Way to go girls!

Season Finale

Ok, I'm so embarrassed that it's been over a month since my last post. I guess I just haven't had a lot to say. I will say that Cinco de Mayo has become one of my favorite holidays! Things are pretty hectic with school winding down and summer fast approaching. I'm looking forward to it and only pray that soon I'll be able to spend summer at home with my kiddos! Campbell's dance recital is Monday night so maybe i'll have pics to post next week, and Mallory has Fairy Tale Ball at school so I'll have those as well.

For now, the tv season wrapping up is my big news. I thoroughly enjoyed the finale of LOST and can't wait until next season! The Private Practice finale was almost too horrifying to watch and Grey's Anatomy finally pulled off a great season after a few meager ones. But my favorite so far is American Idol! I just can't believe how great the singers have been this season. Adam and Kris have been my 2 favorites and I can't wait to see them in the finals this week!!!

He is Risen Indeed!

HAPPY EASTER!!!

A Whole Lot of Baking Going On

With Campbell's birthday party tomorrow and Easter on Sunday, we've been doing a lot of baking today. First I made a Barbie cake for Campbell. I used fondant for the first time and probably the last. I think it tastes awful and just don't think it's worth the trouble. We'll probably peel it off before we eat the cake. Then I tried cupcake pops from Bakerella to take to Popsy's for Easter. I think they are adorable and not too difficult although mine don't look as great as Bakerella. But that's what you get when you let a 5 & 6 year old help.
