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!

Randomness...

I have a couple of different days to post pictures for so I will just explain as I go.

This is just a cute picture I wanted to share of Kylie playing in the floor...

this was St. Patrick's Day. We had a blue jean jacket with green ribbons on it but as you can see we had already taken it off.

We ate avacado's on St. Patrick's Day. Had to find something green and she hated green beans and peas.

We had a fun playdate this week with my friend Jessica and her daughter Genevieve. We love playdates, and now they are becoming legitimate since they can actually play some! : )

This was on our play date....we went to the park and sat in the swings. Of course Kylie had to have the sunglasses on...but that's another story for another day!

Teeth,Teeth and more Teeth

Kylie cut her bottom two teeth about a month ago. Since then we have done nothing but get new teeth! She is now cutting her top two teeth and we can see the two next to them under the skin. We also think she is fixing to start cutting the two next to the bottom front teeth. She is going to have a mouth full of teeth before we know it. I guess it is just another example of how kids grow up so fast!

All Things Zebra

Last week and this week I have been seeing Zebra stripes everywhere...probably because I put them there! I started the week with Tables of Love at Mom and Dad's church. Tables of Love is a womens ministry where each person decorates a table however they want and they invite church prospects. I helped Eryn with her table and also helped decorate a table for another lady. There are pics below (I didn't help with the AU table, that was mom's, I just thought it was cute enough to share!

On Saturday, I'm hosting a baby shower for a friend. Since I already had the zebra stuff I decided to use it for the shower. Not very traditional for a baby shower but I think it will turn out really cute. Today I made the cake...zebra striped of course! Here is a pic...

Sweet Sleep

By the post title you may think that I mean Kylie looks sweet when she sleeps. While she looks adorable, that is not what I mean. The past couple of weeks Kylie has been sleeping so good. Last night she slept from 7:30 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.!!!!!! The sleep we got was so sweet. :) I probably shouldn't speak to soon because then she will wake up alot but I can't help it. I just had to tell how excited I was.

Let it Snow, let it snow, let it snow

When we got up this morning it was snowing! Since we have to drive over the mountain for church, we decided we weren't going to chance it, so we let Kylie go out and play for a minute to see how she would react to the snow. She really liked it! Here are a few pictures of Kylie playing in the snow this morning:

Her daddy built her a snowman!
