Egg Hunt

We had our annual egg hunt with two of K's friends on Good Friday. We filled their eggs with mini-cookies, puffins, popcorn, and chocolate treats. A fun time was had by all!














I'm a Kitty

K goes through seasons of bloody noses. Her last 2 happened during nap time and when she looked in the mirror she said, I'm a kitty. She recently saw a Halloween picture when she was dressed like a cat & associates the whiskers with what's around her nose. Silly baby!

Oh My Goodness

Were the words that came out of Kylie's mouth last Sunday when we opened the door. She then called out, Kitchen, where are you? Demo of our walls and floors happened late last week. To our surprise they didn't find any electrical issues, but we later found out we needed a new hardwood floor b/c the previous owner over sanded. This week we should have insulation, new drywall, floors & possibly cabinets.

Weekend Activities

We are one week away from demoing our kitchen & redoing our main floor. We'll be living out of our basement for 5 weeks but it will be well worth it. All the design elements have been chosen with the exception of granite. Who would have thought it's such a mickey mouse process! Slabs are assigned a level/class that usually range from 1-6/7. There are no standards which means levels vary from place to place. A level 4 at one wholesaler could be priced at 6000 while another one might price it at 9000. Another obstacle I've run into is selecting a slab that has already been sold. This happened 3 times b/c most wholesalers don't move/place signage on the slab. Needless to say, I'm still on the lookout... I will post pictures as the project progresses.

Besides packing up our kitchen, my Dad and I went to Chicago on Saturday. The star who played Roxy was amazing and carried the show. The dancers weren't that good, they lacked the details which were defined by Fosse & fell short in their technique.

Saturday night Chris attended a birthday party while Kylie and I stayed home to make pizza and watched Frozen. Kylie was interested for about 20 min & then went back to doing her own thing. 

Today, we met Chris' parents for lunch, went to Littleton Museum & introduced Kylie to hop-scotch. She giggled the whole time and thought it was so much fun!

Napping @ Noon

Kylie went 4 days without taking a nap which is especially challenging when I schedule my conference calls around her nap time. Today she broke her record and took a 2.5hr nap at Grandma & Papa's house. If only she would do that here.

Chatfield

Kylie and I took advantage of the nice weather and explored Chatfield this morning. There are so many hidden paths that you feel like you have the place to yourself.
