BEWARE

Hope your summer is going well and you are relaxing!  We've been taking it easy here and checking in with you during our summer vacations.  Busy days playing with the kids and I know one of our dogs is pooped after a long day.....  This is Charlie and she is our resident alarm.  She looks cute now but I felt really bad for the fed ex man the other day.  I've never seen a man jump into their truck that fast.  Then again she is scary at full speed with her teeth showing.  But she is Sofia's favorite dog and luckily the only child Charlie hasn't tasted yet ;)  

I have a great review coming this week for a great baby present so stay tuned!  

Pacifier Bowl

Can you ever find your baby's pacifiers?  I know I have about a million but where are they all?  Under the crib?  Under the couch?  Inside the cabinets and or Daddy's shoes?  Maybe that's just my darling daughter...

When I was trying to design her nursery (which I am still doing) the first thing I got and put on her night table was a pacifier bowl.  An adorable little bowl just for her passy's so I would know where they were!  When she got a little older she would reach up into the bowl and get one.  It was perfect since she knew where she could find one too!

Then she got a little older and threw it down the stairs and smashed it into itty bitty pieces.  

Oh yeah she's cute LOL.

So when I saw this adorable hand painted wooden bowl I thought PERFECT she can't break it and maybe we'll know where the passy's are again!

IS IT SUMMER YET???

Well this has been the cloudiest June in record since the 1800's....

I heard that on the news last week.  But maybe it's starting to turn around!

We haven't been up to too much round here...just spending time with the kids and enjoying some much needed R&R!  Preschool has finally been secured and I can finally get through the summer without that on my mind...what a relief!

Here are some pics of the kids today with some new toys we picked up to enjoy the beautiful day!
