Busy, Busy, Busy

It's been a crazy week for the Weiss family. Between working full-time and dealing with my kiddo's, I am so dang tired that I hardly ever have time to post anything. So here is what we have been up to this week.

Thursday, I decided I needed my hair cut pretty bad. It hasn't even been so much trimmed since before the twins so I needed something. I wanted Gracie to come and get hers trimmed as well. We have trimmed it here and there but now she needed some more help. I had to bribe her by telling her we were going to Jewel (her favorite store), which we did go to. And then it was off to Cost Cutters because it would be quick and easy. She watched me as the lady chopped my hair. She told me I looked like Batman in the cape that they put on you.

Then it was her turn. She sat so still and patiently as the lady cut her hair. Granted it only took her like 5 minutes. She probably thought I was nuts snapping pictures but oh well. Your little girl gets her first real haircut only once right?

Then Saturday, it was off to Olivia's birthday party. She was turning one but her older sister Jackie was there to play. Gracie was excited to go. She was really looking forward to come cake.



And of course there was a bouncy house.

My friend Tracy K. came with us to help with the kids. She even had fun jumping with Gracie after mommy decided she needed a break!

And Grandma Patti, who just celebrated her 50th birthday was there too! She had to keep Mr. Presley happy. He was hungry as usual.

And then today, it was Anne's baby shower. The theme was "a baby is brewing" because Anne loves coffee and because we had to keep it a neutral theme since we don't know if it's a boy or a girl. We had fun planning it and of course I made her a scrapbook so that all she has to do is fill in the pictures. She has a cover page, where she can say the name, weight, lenght, time, etc. There is a page for every month complete with a spot to record what happened that month, a "welcome to the world" page, a coming home page, diapers, strollers, first halloween, first christmas, first birthday, bath, sleeping, i love mommy, i love daddy, baby's room, and bff page (with my kids pics already on it, see below). So she is set. I was even approached by one of her friends about making one for her pregnant neice. She would pay me too! Now don't get me wrong, I have thought about making and selling them. Maybe something to think about. I enjoy it and I can whip 'em up. It's just finding the good chunk of time to do it.

Here are just some of the pages.

And here is my and my girls. Anne doesn't know what she is having, so making the scrapbook was a little tricky since everything is pink or blue. I think she is having a girl so we'll find out next month if I am right. Please ignore the "twin skin" as it doesn't seem to be going anywhere anytime soon!
