Some news

I feel like i have to document what is going on for Juliette's future reference and embarassment :). My camera that my wonderful mother got me for my birthday last year is back at Nikon getting repaired so I am feeling very naked at home with nothing to document in still frames my adorably adorable kid. She is so aware of everything and when we tell her to wait for something, she'll wait....and then ask for it again immediately after the designated waiting period is--example--You can watch Charlie Brown after bath. As soon as we hop out of the tub she is running down the hall screaming Charlie Brown time!! I've discovered a way for her to give a perfect camera ready smile too. All we have to do is say Juliette show me happy. She gets a huge grin on her face.

This weekend was crazy busy so it has lent itself well to getting rid of that morning nap that everyone has been telling us will go away sooner or later. Mommy and Daddy miss is more than little miss sunshine, but without her taking that nap we are able to do a lot more during the day instead of waiting for her to wake up, running out, and running back home asap so she can take the afternoon nap. Anywho...back to the weekend. We went to a breakfast at our chiropractor's office...strange but true. Juliette was very entertaining to the little old ladies across from us. She was describing her cupcake, showing them her dress and bow, etc. She grabbed some ham and said "Look I have ham. It's good for me. I'll dip it in my cupcake." Then dipped the ham in the icing. yum. Then is was off to Chuck E Cheese h**l for a birthday party at 9:30. Until 11:30. Say it with me....two hours of CHuck E Cheese. Thankfully we were 30 minutes late. Juliette had a blast running around with her buddies and dancing with the giant rat guy. When he led the kids around in a congo line for free tickets, she ran after him shouting "Wait for me I coming, I want tickets!" She had no clue what the tickets were for, but she learned that they came out of games and they were fun to put in her cup. So a whole bunch of kids followed Chuck E and danced with him. THen he had them all sit down on the floor while he threw tickets at them....like throwing raw meat to lions. Thankfully he spread some out over by Juliette so she got to join in the mass ticket hysteria. Yesterday Juliette came with me on my first real attempt at matching coupons to sales and doubling stuff and oh my head hurt from thinking of everything. She was so good at the store while I went up and down the isles sometimes three or four times. She had her milk, snack cup, and jammy sammy--she was good. I saved over half my bill so yippee for me!! :) Hopefully my camera will get back soon so I can post some pictures. Videos will continue though :).

Ok so on to the new house. This weekend we really kicked it into moving gear and got about 20 boxes packed. Josh's office looks like a UPS truck stacked to the brim with boxes. Sure hope the floor doesn't give out! We close next Monday and then can start lining up workmen to paint and carpet the stairs. Josh went by himself to pick out carpeting....I hope it doesn't suck.
