The Market....aka..the Grocery Store

We have been regularly going to the grocery store via bike and trailer for about 2 weeks now(sshhhh....don't tell Shane). Annabelle asks to go everyday, that girl LOVES to shop. I generally end up caving in about every 3 days. I can always think of something we need. They seem to go through about a gallon of milk every two or three days and that doesn't count the milk we use for making yogurt, kefir, and buttermilk. Plus fruit is in season (well some of it) so we have been gobbling it up! As you can see, really there is always something to buy.....today it was strawberries and dark chocolate for some more chocolate covered strawberries!

In the trailer ready to go

Our Loot, in my African market basket, purchased by my dear husband. No need for plastic bags.

Crying cause she couldn't eat the bittersweet dark chocolate we bought.

Deciding to give up asking for chocolate and go play with Levi

My son, always the happy one....well sometimes.

Levi's new trick. Sticking his tongue out, although you can't see much of it here. Its the cutest thing ever.

Annabelle being goofy..haha.

Day 12

Day 12:

Today we are deleting all fly lady e-mails and continuing with our routine! An easy day I must say.

Here are some pictures of the past two days.



Eating pizza...her favorite!!

Know All Done!

Still eyeing the dog treat....I caught her eating it! YUCK!

Feeding Sarah, its one of her favorite things to do every day. She gets 4 dog treats and puts them into the jar then takes them to the puppy.

A little this and that...

Here are just a few pictures to let you know what we've been up too.
Organizing the canning pantry. I put up 36 pints last week so I needed to make more room. This is what happened. ;)


Annabelle wearing one of her Christmas presents Jena (a dear friend of ours) got her.

Helping pick up the puzzle pieces. She isn't able to really put it together yet but she does sort the colors out into there own groups. Not sure if you can tell in the pictures but Jena cut her hair and layered it. It looks much better now and much more girly.

Re-arranging AGAIN!! Kitchen

BEFORE:


AFTER:


This is where the table was, now it houses an extra pantry and the elliptical machine that was in the dining room.
This is where the cupboard in the dining room was that held the baking supplies. Now this shelf hold the baking supplies and cookbooks.

Re-arranging....AGAIN! Dinning Room

You'd think since we just moved I wouldn't be doing this. But I found after living here for a couple months that the way I had things set up just wasn't working for us. So now, I am in the process of changing just about the whole house....at least the down stairs anyway.

Dinning room
BEFORE: I turned it into an office/playroom...that wasn't working as it would get really messy from all the toys.

AFTER:
Since we have two under two I decided to put a rug down to keep spills onto the carpet a minimum. I was really wanting a bamboo or judo rug but that was way out of my price range ($150-$200) so I settled for this rug which has the color and texture of what I was looking for. Soon, I'll have my husband paint the legs of the table white to match the cupboard and get the "country" look I am going for.
This used to be our "baking cabinet" but instead I thought it would look ultra cute with our dishes in it, plus its close to the table.

Here's what 9 cans of spray paint will get you....

No......not a baby, but some nice matching furniture. Below are some before pictures of the dresser and crib. Although they are at the old house when the kids where sharing a room. Now Levi has his own room!
