Yesterday after work we went on the Tour of Homes here is Yakima. It was pretty good. We got lots of good ideas for what we want in our house. And a few things that we definitely don't want. It was great to have some time without the girls for a few hours. We are going to finish up the houses today. There are 2 houses in Moxee that we didn't get to yesterday. I am leaving work early today (Whoo-Hoo!), picking up some dinner, going home to help pick up the rest of the house, we will swing into the two houses on our way to Jake's birthday party, then we will come back home for dinner with Jon and Sue. They are in town getting Christina all settled into her dorm this weekend! I still can't believe she's an official college girl! Whoo-Hoo!
It's a busy weekend! Hannah has her 6 month appointment tomorrow.... we will see how much of a chunk she really is and if she's reached the 17 pound mark yet... haha. (I beleive KaeLee was barely 18 pounds at a year old... haha) Shawn and I were talking yesterday about something going on on Friday and that I should try to get it off or switch it to Thursday... .and now I can't remember why. Hmmmm.... I should text him real quick.
Yesterday in my blog I said that our house is looking good and looks like crap at the same time.... but I didn't really expand on that. Sorry. Well, like I said, we are trying to get it ready to sell. The downstairs is almost done. Well, other than the crown molding. We have it all, but Shawn just needs to cut it now. We are waiting on some protractor or something that he ordered. The dining room is all done with the exception of the chandelier that will be replaced as soon as we find one in our budget. The front room is done with the exception of a second chair I think I am going to order. The living room is coming along and is almost done being painted. I like the colors but I think if I were going to do it again, I'd put a bigger contrast in colors between the wall and the fireplace.... Though this stuff is getting done, our house is quite chaotic right now with big o boxes in the way, extra furniture waiting to be sold, toys that need to be shuttled up to the girls' rooms, paint supplies everywhere and a counter covered with so much crap that you would never know there was actually a counter there!
But I have convinced Shawn that white walls are ugly! When we first moved into the house, he didn't want to paint anything because he said he likes white and doesn't like color on the walls. Well, after my initial painting the front room and dining room he started coming along, and now after the living room, he agrees that it looks MUCH better and would love to be able to paint the entire house... hahaha! Whoo-Hoo!
So KaeLee's behavior with Hannah has gone from cute to annoying pretty fast! She is driving me crazy now with things that were cute before! I swear, she thinks that Hannah was put here on earth for her own personal human dolly. It is cute (about the first 10 times) when KaeLee and Hannah are in the bath together and KaeLee is washing Hannah's back for her with the washcloth. Then she dumps water over her head. Over. and over. and over. and yup, over again. She know better and looks at me and pours it over her while staring at me, shaking her head no. Ugh. She says "ome more!" and pours it. Then repeats. A lot. This is because I pour a cup over her head trying to rinse out the shampoo and then I say "one more!" and do it again. And "One more" is usually really like 2 or 3 more. haha. It is pretty funny. Unless you are Hannah. Well, that's what I would think anyway, but Hannah loves anything that KaeLee does to her and this is no different.
Anyway, it's little things like this that annoy me with her. Maybe it won't annoy me so bad once Hannah is old enough to 'fight' back. When KaeLee pushes her, she can just push right back. But right now, the poor girl has no choice. I am constantly having to watch KaeLee with her. I know she loves Hannh a ton, but sometimes enough is enough, right? Like when KaeLee is trying super hard to pick Hannah up to put her in the swing, the wagon, carseat, or wherever else she feels she needs to go, and leaves nail marks in Hannah's skin from otrying to get a grip on her to pick her up. (all th while grunting and huffing and puffing and moaning "heavy...! heavy...! heavy...!")
Okay, well, it's close to trayline time here at work, so I should get going. I need to call my butt off this morning so that I don't leave her with a million people to call when I leave an hour and a half early. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
The Happy couple
KaeLee and her cousin Layla!
