Flushed

For the last 9 days Delaney has been potty training, and I have to say she is doing remarkably well. She has the "number 1" aspect down pat for the most part just a couple little tiny accidents here and there. However, the "number 2" part is giving her a little trouble, and she is a little nervous about doing that on the toilet, but she doesn't want to do it in her panties either so she is having some difficulties.
Last night while attending Mclaynes basketball practice and after RUNNING to the bathroom, she was sitting on the potty with her chin in her hands while I knelt next to her she says "You can't flush me" and I said "I won't flush you." To which she responds very seriously "I would be stuck."

Inspired by Hair

When I was preggers with Delaney and found out she was a girl, I had grand visions of long wavy hair to style perfectly and decorate with ribbons and bows and fancy dresses, and how much fun it was going to be to dress her up. Chris even reminded me once that she isn't a doll. But I think most mothers of baby girls can relate especially if you had boys first. Well instead of that grand vision, I had a beautiful little girl with stick straight fine hair who doesn't really like poofy dresses. Oh well, I at least got the ribbons and bows part down right?
So the other day I was reading some blogs and I love to go to my friends and families links that they have on their blogs and see new and interesting people. In doing this I found the wonderful world of hair blogs! Yes that is correct hair blogs. Blogs done by mothers and dedicated to doing their little girls hair. They show pictures and give step by step instructions and these fancy do's. So I have actually been "doing" Delaney's hair this week and these are some pics to show off her do after her bath last night. I realize it is not perfect but I'm trying and she hates it :) I have some links over in my website section if you want to check some of them out. It also gave me some good ideas for my own hair. I have also contacted a couple of them and they are going to host some giveaways for me to get some advertising. I will let you know when they happen if you would like to enter, or share with your friends.

The Bow Barn

 
 
 
 

This is the Bow Barn. Actually it is just our shed that used to store our lawn mower and various other yard care items as well as miscellaneous fodder. After several weeks of hard work by Chris and many wonderful neighbors, friends, and family, it is The Bow Barn. I love it! This is obviously where the majority of my supplies are stored for the website. I don't get to spend any time in the bow barn, first there is no heat and it is crazy cold. So I try not to be out there for too long, and second because I can't leave those precious babies in the house by themselves, obviously. It's just where I go in the evenings to fill the orders that have come in during the day. I realize it is not that exciting for anyone but me, but I wanted to share.
