Tuesday Tidbits

Happy Tuesday, Friends! Here's some tidbits from our corner of the world...

--We finally got our master bedroom curtains & playroom shelves ordered this weekend, which were two big items left on our to-do list. It felt good to get those items taken care of! The shelves arrived today, and Derek is currently hard at work assembling them while I type on the couch. ;)  Next big decision/purchase is the mattress & box springs for the guest room, and we hope to get that taken care of this coming weekend! I think at least one item gets crossed off the list day & one new thing gets put on the list as well....we'll get there eventually, right?! ;)

--We tried out a kids' art studio called Art Works yesterday, and it was such a neat place! They have art classes for little ones & art camps. We attended their "Open Art" where they have 12 different art centers/projects available for the kids to rotate through at their leisure. Shelby really enjoyed it! We'll definitely be going back again soon.
This was Shelby's favorite activity, hands down! She did it at least ten times. You put paint on your paper plate via an eye dropper (which she totally enjoyed!), then spin the plate in the salad spinner for a fun effect!


Spin art on a record player :)

Playdoh!

Painting with Adam :)

--This girl is a MESS! But we sure do love her :)

--I cannot believe Shelby will be FOUR next month! I haven't done a single thing in preparation for her birthday since all of our time & energy has been spent on getting settled in the new house. But I suppose it's about time to start getting into birthday mode! Shelby, of course, decided she wanted a Frozen party. :)  So a Frozen party is what we'll have!


--Hadley is just one week shy of 17 months old! Almost one and a half...how did that happen?! Shelby started walking at 16.5 months old, so Hadley will officially be a later crawler & walker than her big sister. And that is totally okay by this mama! Hadley is a SPEED crawler & can fly behind her walker, but she has absolutely ZERO interest in walking on her own. ;)  She could totally surprise us, but I have a good feeling we have at least another month of a crawling baby in our house.

This cutie is talking up a storm lately!!! Shelby didn't really start talking until after she was walking, so it's been fun to hear lots of new words coming out of her mouth every day. Her little voice is so sweet :)  A new word as of today is "wipe" for baby wipes...if she sees the wipe container, she HAS to have a wipe in her hand IMMEDIATELY. She's obsessed with baby wipes. :)

--I snapped this picture of Shelby reading in her room today. I love how much she loves to read!


--We went swimming with friends today & had so much fun! Shelby is doing great with her swimming & I'm excited to see how much more progress she'll make with her lessons this week!

--We found a new sitter here, and our first date night in San Antonio is this weekend! We're excited!

Okay, I think that's it for today! Hope y'all have a great week!
