WHAT? You glued PAPER to the Floor???!!!???

Yup.  I glued paper to the floor!  AND I'll do it again!

Miz Aisey enjoying the paper bag floor from her penthouse suite.

I'm so excited to say that the floor in the front part of the basement is almost officially complete.  I have three coats of Poly to put down, but that'll be done tomorrow.

We ended up using more than one role of contractor's paper as well as some paper bags, packing paper and some other brown paper Dad was able to supply us!  I wanted to make certain it was all done in one day as I had taken vacation to work on this project and had a schedule that I needed to follow!

Today, I put three coats of Poly on the floor . . . tomorrow will be the final three!  Then, it'll be time to install the trim, repaint the walls, sand the steps (and restain 'em) and FINALLY move my office!

I LOVE how the floor looks and have to laugh when I think of all of the comments and odd looks I received when I said I was going to glue paper bags to the floor!

Six Month (Birthday) Pictures

The 20th was Miz Aisey's Six Month Birthday.  So, I wanted to snap some pictures of her. I tried getting one of her with her Eeyore stuffed animal, but I wasn't able to get a good one.  Instead, we snapped a good one of the two sisters.  This is getting harder as Miss Mia does not want in the pictures, she wants to be the one TAKING the pictures.

I honestly don't know which picture I like best . . . she's so danged cute in each of them.  I think I might like the standing one - as that's her new "thing".  She LOVES to stand and will start crying if we sit her down or don't let her have her way.  Yep, she's a little spoiled!

Family Fun Friday!

Miz Aisey and Connor - NOT a love match.

First off, I am sorry about the pics - I really don't know why Blogger insists that my upright pics need to randomly be tossed on their sides!  It's also not spell-checking my work!

Last Friday, we had our Heart Family over for Dinner.  It was nothing spectacular . . . we just had Taco Salad and cupcakes. 

What made the night special was the fun we had visiting and enjoying each others' company!

My coworker, Marci, was able to attend, along with her Mom, Georgetta (she acutally just had gull bladder surgery!).  I love those two women - and my girls love 'em as well!


Others who were there were Jen and her hubby, Patrick, Dave and Courney and Tiffany, Mike, Connor and  Cadin.

Miss Mia LOVED Connor and wanted to hold him (that was a big NO!).  She also ensured she was there for his diaper changes.  She's really taking a liking to Tiff and loves to follow her around!

Cadin the Cutie!

Date Night Success!



These two are unbearable prior to the actual play date.  "Mommy, Cadin coming!" is usually the only thing I hear over . . . and over . . . and over . . . 

Yet, when they get together, they usually end up playing with the toys, or alone . . . and rarely with each other.

They did enjoy their dinner together, so that was a plus!

We'll continue to work on getting them to play together!

Baby Bunny and Mommy Mia

Mommy Mia ran into the bathroom this evening hollering that Baby Bunny had to Poop.  The Husband was a little concerned with this, and went to check on Mommy Mia.  He does not usually carry the camera around, but was carrying it down to me when he stopped in to check on the Poop situation.  When he saw Mommy Mia teaching Baby Bunny to use the potty, he had to snap the picture. 

It is one of my favorite photos at the moment!

The second pic is one Mommy Mia snapped of her Baby Bunny wearing (Mommy Mia's) favorite diaper material.  Unfortunately, this diaper material must make Baby Bunny go potty an awful lot as Mommy Mia was changing Baby Bunny every five minutes!

I'm just glad Miz Aisey doesn't mind sharing her dipeys with Baby Bunny!

Six Months!

My Little Miz Aisey is 6 months.  I had to check the calendar a few times to make certain Miss Mia hadn't ripped off a few extra pages!

My little sweetie has been giving me a few rough nights lately . . . last Thursday, Friday and Saturday, I was functioning on less than 3 hours of sleep due to her not going to bed prior to 11 and waking up hourly.  When she would wake up, she would fuss and it was hard to get her back to sleep.  Heck, Thursday, she woke up at 2:45 and didn't fall back to sleep until 5 - just in time for me to roll out of bed and get ready to work.

She's been a little better the last two nights . . .

There is a white spot or two on her gums.  I think she's going to be the same as her sister - the tooth will be white in the gums and then go away, and come back, and go away . . . enough to drive us insane - especially as we'll exclaim over it and then the next person will only see pink gums!

Enough about teething. 

Miz Aisey is in size 1 diapers and wears 3-6 month clothing.  I've started giving her 2 oz of formula a night as I've been cutting down on the breastfeeding/pumping as I've been told I need to get on my PCOS meds again (and cannot take 'em while bf). 

Miz Aisey wants to sit up most of the time.  The rest of the time, she wants to be standing.  There is nothing she loves more than to "walk" with one of her feet on each of mine. 

Miss Mia is her favorite buddy, but Simba is a VERY close second.  Miss Mia and Miz Aisey actually have to be seperated at night because they get so wound up.

Miz Aisey is allowed to put her feet in the bath when Mis Mia is bathing.

OH, and the drool?????  Goodness gravy - I can take a bath in it!

We go next week for her 6 month well baby appointment!  Stats will be posted then.
