Clean-up Day, Kitchen Remodel, and Chuck E Cheese

Two Saturdays ago we had clean-up day and conferences at the preschool.  Matt leads clean up day so he was busy at the school all day.  The girls and I went up there for a little bit because I had conferences with both girls teachers.

Maddy's teacher says she's a joy to have in the class.  She is definitely shy but has no problem telling the teacher when she needs something or participating in class.  She did say she'll hear Maddy and Sydney talking and they'll decide they want to ask Ms. Robyn (teacher) something and Sydney will be the one to go up and ask rather than Maddy.  She said she knew most of her upper case letters and a few lower case.  She said Maddy is eager to please and she loves having her in class.  Good job Maddy!!!

Camryn's teacher basically started off by telling me how much she loves Camryn and how she has a soft spot for Camryn.  She said she's doing well, she plays well with the other kids and then continued to talk about how much she loves Camryn. They have a special bond and we are so happy Ms. Amy is Camryn's teacher, they love each other and it's adorable!!

We finished our mini kitchen remodel!!

Matt and I both agree we will never paint cabinets again...wow that was hard work!





But the end result was well worth it.



And a before and after



During the renovation the fridge was in eat in area of the kitchen and the water line obviously not hooked up...poor Camryn kept trying though.



Maddy loves having her hair curly now so before bed and after bath I braid her hair.



And in the morning she has "curly" hair.



Callies tongue will always put a smile on my face, ha.



Camryn woke early the other morning...as usual, and I came down to find her watching tv with daddy and it was just so cute.



Last weekend Mom organized for all of us to go to Chuck E Cheese.  We had a lot of fun!



Surprised they let Zach in with that creepy mustache (apparently for a fundraiser for "Mo"vember)



Maddy hit the jackpot on one game.



Camryn loved this ride.



Camryn walked around just putting tokens in games and walking away.  She was on this little tea cup ride and as she was riding she kept feeding it tokens. I'm pretty sure the tea cup ride spun for at least an hour after I made her get off because of all the tokens she fed it!



One of the girls favorite things to do is watch the guys at Whole Foods make pizza.  The main guy we see there, loves them and always gives them samples and they just watch them make pizza after pizza. Camryn saw them make pizza with mushrooms on it once, so she tells them they need to do sauce, then cheese, then we ask what next and she always says mushrooms haha.






Camryn "playing" checkers at Whole Foods.



Saturday night was the Fall Auction and Social at the preschool and it had a 70's theme.  Due to the theme Matt and Shane were given mustaches to wear.  Matt looks like he has a carpet on his face and the mustache actually looks real on Shane...it was hilarious!

We were out front the other day and the girls were playing in their moon bounce...which they absolutely love, and then the girls starting racing into the pile of leaves Matt was making.  Here's a little video of it.

Yesterday Matt was doing leaves most of the day and the girls and I were inside making lunch and Camryn kept saying "cash all warm, otay mama" and I look over and sure enough, he was warm...with about 8 blankets on and even a little stuffed doggie tucked in next to him.




The other day was our neighbor, Lily's, birthday.  She always loves seeing the girls and is so sweet to them so they made one of their signature birthday videos, complete with a million twirls.  Here is the video.

Matt is off today with the girls.  Camryn loves having her hair braided now...the kid that wouldn't let me touch her hair now wants it braided 24/7 and her hair is very soft and fine so it's quite challenging.  I got this picture from Matt today...he actually did a pretty good job if I do say so myself!!
