Long Weekend

This has been a pretty long weekend for me, I think mostly because I spent it working /cleaning. Friday night Sid and I hit the couch for our harry potter marathon...she lasted about five minutes then started roaming around and playing....which is fine she can play by herself pretty good. Until she comes up to me with somethin in her hand...as she always does...so she comes over to me hands me a pile of dust and says ewwwww mommy?? Gross!! Yes I'm truly ashamed that it takes my two year old to get fed up for me to clean my house!! Now don't be soooo disgusted. Every week I do the normal things....the dishes, laundry....and I'm an obsessive vacumer. But I don't get down and dirty and mop, dust , clean the base boards...you know the hard core stuff...I don't have time!!! So most of the weekend I spent doing the hard core stuff!! I even cleaned out the fridge! I still have a lot I need to do. I need to go thru sid's room again, get rid of some old clothes shoes....just do some decluttering! Saturday when Chris got home, him and sid both wanted burgers....so we went to fuddruckers. Then there was this new store that I have been wanting to check out every since I went into the new sammoons weeks ago. It's called Belk. It did not look to interesting from the outside, but we went in to check it out! Trying to think of a store to compare it to....Maybe a upscale penneys or kohls! I loved it as soon as I walked in...clean and not crowded..and soooo many pretty things!! They had a lot of clothes in my size...and I mean a lot, and very cute. Nothing too trendy, yet nothing to make me look frumpy ! They had a lot of sale signs everywhere, but still a little pricey for me.?? I probably will wait another week, and go back and get a couple of things I saw...maybe it will be even cheaper...or my luck gone. They had a big home section...lots of cute stuff, picture frames, candles, comforters. They had a really nice kid dept. There were a lot of dresses I wanted to get sid...but even at 50% off I still could not pay 12.99 for a cotton summer dress!? (maybe if hubby was not there!!) Then for my total weakness purses and jewelry.... (so many pretty things) I finally had to tell my husband to drag me out of there! And that he did!! So I guess since it sounds like I'm giving a review.......I LOVED the store...but it's pricey to me! (but you all know the HUGE inhertiance I live off of..........lol NOT!!) By the way...and I'm mentioning it because its rare that sid will behave in a store for me...but she did great! Was saying HI!! to everyone that walked by...and everyone would say hi to her...except one. Don't you just want to secretly bop those people upside the head that don't say hi to your kids!! Oh well... I gave her the STANK EYE! But soon after my child's cuteness even got on my nerves...I had to tell her...please, please stop saying HI to people!! After that we headed next door to the new children's place! They also were having a sale...which was much more reasonable...got sid a new pair of crocs for 4.00 dollars normally 9.00. They have cute stuff....I think it tends to be more of a pay off to shop there if you have more than one kid! That's just me though...another place I will have to sneak back too. They are building so many new things out this way. Now if we can get some more restraunts.

My husband and I had a talk this weekend about another child...not sure what brought this up...something had to...because we dont normally talk about this subject. He again stated his firm ground that he does not want another child...he is happy with just the three of us! I must say that at the present I am too! Pregnancy was hard, new borns are hard!! But as I have told him before it is just too soon, and I'm too young (cough, cough ) to make such a permenant decesion! Before you all attack him in your head....no thats ok...attack him!! He just wants us to be able to live comfortably, do great things for sid, take vacations...he feels that with another child we wont be able to do those things! I guess when you look at it that way...you cant be too mad at him! But we still have time...so we will see. The best thing about Chris is that he will always put himself last...if having another baby is what I want, what makes me happy...then he will be happy! I guess you can say that he always gives me what I want, need! SO for the time, we agree to disagree!

This evening I was working on sid's baby/scrap book...I'm only on her first x-mas!! Looking back at all those pics...I just miss her being a baby! So sad! She is just such a lil person. She can count to ten, say her abc.....it goes by so fast... Who would not want to go thru this again?? (relax honey, i know your reading this...behind my back!!)Sidney rocking her swim suit fourth of july!

Too Cute!!

Those two shirts I got at target for two dollars a piece!

Sid playing....so cute how she has all the animals sitting at the table! I find it some what ironic that she was telling the puppy to sit! Trying to make them all behave!! Where does she get this stuff??

Sid playing with her color wonder! Don't look at the back ground...this was pre hard core clean!
