Pink Piggies!

Last week, I was bored one day and decided to TRY to paint Kylie's piggies pink. I put her in her highchair and gave her a cracker to distract her. She couldn't see me painting them, which was a pretty good strategy, but she thought that I was trying to tickle her feet so she kept pulling her feet up in the chair. We eventually got them all painted and it turned out pretty good for our first attempt. She loved it. She kept looking at her toes!

Happy Easter

We had a busy easter weekend! We went to Dothan to visit my family, went to church and had lunch with my parents on Sunday morning, went to visit Kyle's family (both sides) and finally made it home Sunday night. Whew....I am tired just talking about it. It was very busy, but we love celebrating Easter. There is no better holiday for a Christian because "Up from the Grave He Arose!"

Hunting Easter Eggs with Kylie



She found one!

Our Safe Place...

Last week we had some pretty nasty storms come through our area. I don't know what it is about Owens Cross Roads but if there is going to be bad weather it seems to come through here. We ended up having to get in our "safe place," Kylie's bathroom. I know it may not have been the best time for pictures but we snapped a few of her first time taking cover from the tornado warnings.

Happy Birthday to Me!

I haven't had much time to blog the past few weeks but today is my birthday and Kylie is napping, so I decided to take a break from cleaning and cooking! We are planning to eat at the melting pot tonight and I am so excited. Everyone I have talked to said it is wonderful. I've never been, but after tonight I will let you know what I think!

The past couple of weeks have been pretty uneventful (one of the many reasons I haven't blogged). Kylie is really getting better at crawling, still not great, but better. She crawled about 6 or 7 feet last night...time to cover the plugs and put away the valuables! :) Actually, I am only covering the plugs and putting things up that could cause her harm. I figure she needs to just learn to leave other things alone, plus I don't have anything that is really valuable enough to put away. If we go somewhere else I want her to know that the fireplace (and other things) is a no,no. So I will just teach her the hard way I guess. It is about to be a new day in the Edmonds house, I feel her first "spanking" coming soon. LOL.

We are off to Dothan tomorrow to visit the family. I will try to post some pics after the weekend. Happy Easter!
