Cleaning up can be fun! WHAT?!?

 I have both girls at home since its summer we definitely have been playing more, cooking more, swimming more which all equals... CLEANING MORE! Everyday all toys seem to find there way out of the toy bins and on to the floor, stairs and some how even the bathroom. Cooking at home with a 6 yr old means that she wants to HELP with everything in the kitchen, i don't mind ( i got her the cutest zebra cooking apron from hobby lobby ill have to post pics with her) but, it can make more messes and even swimming seems to bring more laundry and cleaning up the 5 million swim toys we always seem to have to tote to the pool. BUT and this is a HUGE BUT (no wise cracks on my booty)  Roxy and Bella thinking cleaning is fun! I turn on the radio or put on a cd set the timer to 30 mins and see how much we can accomplish in between dance moves and it actually gets the job done. I am not saying the 30 mins to spend details the house and the floors shine to make Mr.clean happy but, we get toys picked up dishes in the dish washer some vacuuming done and we have fun doing it!

Thanks to Stephanie and Steven, Miss.Roxy was able to go to seaworld with her fav cousion Steven Richard! From the stories and non-stop talking since she's gotten home I am going to take it she had a blast! She got a cute dolphin necklace and they even got Chunker's a tshirt! HUGE Thank You to Stephanie and Steven for taking her!( i will post pics of Roxy at seaworld as soon as i can)

While Big Sister was away mommy and Bella desided to have some fun too! We helped my mom with some unpacking (Bella is a HUGE help if you ever need to to take stuff out and chew on things!) We went to lunch with my sister-n-law Sarah and did a little shopping! Then sunday we desided to spend some time with daddy and head to Kemah! We went to Landry's for lunch... it was sooooo good and Bella had a great time with her daddy!

Tuesday was my Aunt Carolyn's Birthday HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Wen. the WHOLE family went to eat dinner at the german resturant off westhimer and it was fun. And thursday I had TONS of errands to run and it seemed to be one thing of bad news after another!

Bella and Daddy



A little girl needs Daddy
For many, many things:
Like holding her high off the ground
Where the sunlight sings!
Like being the deep music
That tells her all is right
When she awakens frantic with
The terrors of the night.

Like being the great mountain
That rises in her heart
And shows her how she might get home
When all else falls apart.

Like giving her the love
There is her sea and air,
So diving deep or soaring high
She'll always find him there.

My Blog is...UGLY

My blog is ugly and just all over the place. I like pretty things and my blog is not pretty! I need to revamp it... anyone have any ideas on a theme/idea let me know I am open to any ideas!

I am loving plaid this season... I cant seen to get enough of it for the girls clothes. Roxy and Bella both have plaid shorts, dresses, PJS! I even got a pair of plaid capris for me... My name is Jen and I am a plaid addict :)
