Home Sweet Home

August 15, 2009 By LaVonne

We are so excited to be in the end stages of buying a home. Unexpectedly, we flew up to Washington on Wednesday. The bank wanted our paperwork signed by Thursday, and we were not originally scheduled to fly up here until Friday. Praise God, the inspector could do a 3 hour home inspection Wednesday evening. Thankfully, our house passed the test with flying colors.Did I mention that we are buying a foreclosure? We are getting a great deal for so much less. A contractor built this home for himself, … [Read more...]

Frugal Friday: Free Contacts :)

July 31, 2009 By LaVonne

Okay, so the title is a little misleading, I will freely admit to it. :) I just needed an excuse to show off my Princess. (There is a frugal tip under the last photo though.) She is so funny. Every day when I put on my contacts she follows me into the bathroom, gets up on her stool, and puts her "contacts" in too. Of course, there is only saline solution left in the container, but she thinks she is doing something.For more pretend play you should head over to Target today. Yesterday, they … [Read more...]

Top Ten List: Isabella Style

July 28, 2009 By LaVonne

1. Isabella went potty all on her own yesterday! When we woke up, I went to the bathroom and left her on the bed. She got down and came in. Pointing at her potty chair she started pulling off her diaper. (Which, sometimes unfortunately, is not a good thing.) I did help her sit on the chair correctly since sometimes she sits too far forward and makes a pee pee mess. As she was sitting she started to giggle which I knew meant that pee pee was coming out. She jumped up when she was done and we … [Read more...]

Gratituesday: He is My Sunshine

April 21, 2009 By LaVonne

I am so thankful today for the 87 degree weather. It is so nice to be outside on our deck. Plus, Isabella loves playing in her inflatable pool. It is funny though, 2 years ago I would have been out there with my bathing suit trying to work on my tan. What happens to us when we have children? That is not even important any more. I actually sat in the shade (gasp) with my Karen Kingsbury book (Sunrise) and enjoyed the warmth and fresh air. Then, Isabella rudely suddenly interrupted my relaxation … [Read more...]

Toddler Snacks

March 12, 2009 By LaVonne

Here are the things we love this week: Mommy loves: Scrubbing Bubbles Toilet Cleaning Gel. I belong to BzzAgent and one of my recent campaigns included this Toilet Wand that dispenses the gel. It is like a toilet sticker, and I love stickers! It has lasted almost two weeks (it says it lasts about 1 week) and each time I flush the toilet a fresh scent of clean wafts up in the air. I have noticed that I don't have to clean the toilet as often but it does not do a great job at keeping it clean. If … [Read more...]

Late Night Blogging

February 14, 2009 By LaVonne

Do you ever have a list of things in your head that you want to blog about? I do. All the time. The problem is I often forget. I need to write them down. Thank goodness for late night blogging. Today, is the second day that Isabella has been sitting on her potty trainer toilet and pretending to go to the bathroom. She wants the toilet paper to wipe, so I give her one square and she pretends to wipe then she puts her square in her toilet. It is so funny to see. By the way, in Washington, … [Read more...]

Sleeping Beauty

September 16, 2008 By LaVonne

I am so happy, Isabella is sleeping so much better this week. She is my sleeping beauty. I am hoping that the poor sleep phase at 8 months is now over. (Those weekly baby emails assured me it would soon pass.) We have had an exciting week! We are thrifty people. When we eat out, we almost always order water. We like to add little to go packet of lemonade or something to our water. Well, one packet I found was a sugar free Hawaiian Punch that is Blue. I keep it our diaper bag since that goes … [Read more...]
