*We've been watching the Olympics & I finished 'Breaking Dawn'- 2 events that have occupied most of my free time over the last 2 weeks. (That and a weekend trip to the beach, having my house operate as a salon for 8 hours one day and hanging out with my sister who came for a 3 day visit.)
*Tonight on our way to the bath, Madisen was carrying a stick & she informed me that she's the king of the blondes.
*Today the pool was a little chilly so we were swimming in the slightly heated hot tub. All (3) girlies had their floaties on so Caitlyn asked for some. She decided that she's big enough to go "Swimmin' myself!" It was exciting to see the smile creep on her face as she figured out that she could float with the help of the arm wings. From then on she wanted to "Do myself". YIKES! I don't think I'm ready for my 21 month old to think she's so BIG!
*On Monday Caitlyn got her first real hair cut! I've been trimming it to keep it from looking like a mullet, but Lisa & I decided that she needed a little more pizzaz. I was so busy trying to keep her still, that I forgot to get a picture of the action. But I'll get a picture of the finished product- tomorrow.
* Madisen found a Christmas CD in my room and has insisted in listening to it every day for about the last week. Caitlyn is going around the house singing, "Joy, joy, joy, joy". Nothing like a little holiday cheer in the middle of August to take my thoughts to cooler weather & get me in the Christmas spirit!

That is so good that Caitlyn will do it by herself. I still can't get Livie to float with water wings. I know all about the mullet look. Livie had two layers in her hair and we had to chop the bottom one off. It is so fun that you had your sister come and stay. She is so cute.
Wow... what a fun last few weeks emi! You would be great to have close.... always such a good example of playing so well with your kids... why is it that I leave that up to PBS? I need to re-evaluate! So I'm glad you post these things to keep us other moms up to speed and give us good ideas!!! love you love lou oh... and I have had success :)
