Rudy's New Addiction

Yesterday I bought a laser pointer for exercising Rudy and he loves it!! He is so addicted when we aren't playing with it he wanders around the house looking for that little red light. It is hilarious. Last night he ran and ran with it until he was so tired and thirsty that his tongue was hanging almost to the floor. We tried to get him to stop and take a drink but he just wanted to play. Which brought about another issue since he wasn't paying attention and didn't want to stop he peed all over my living room twice once yesterday and once today!!! (Thanks Thompson's for lending me the steam cleaner!!) So now we have to do it in short turns and make him take potty breaks!! Here is a video of him doing it. I hope you get a kick out of it like I do!! 

P.S. can you name the movie going on in the background?

Kennadee's Princess Tea Party

Today we had Kennadee's Princess tea party for her 4th birthday. It was so much fun. She had 7 friends come and they all dressed up as princesses. 

They got to decorate crowns with jewels, stickers, & glitter glue

They played pin the shoe on Cinderella. Kennadee cheated and peeked the first turn she had so I had to make her take a second turn at the end.

Here are all 8 of the beautiful princesses

After the games they got to eat flower shaped PB&J sandwiches and carrots and peas

And they had pink lemonade tea of course  

Kennadee blew out her candles and they had cupcakes.

Then they washed up 

And then Kennadee opened her presents and they went upstairs to play for a little bit then we cleaned up and they watched Cinderella until their Parents came. It was so much fun!! Thanks for coming girls!!

Krispy Kreme Field Trip

For Kennadee's Preschool co-op we went and had a tour of Krispy Kreme. Kennadee had a blast! And we got to try a donut afterward. They were so so yummy!

Happy Valentines Day

Happy Valentines Day!! Here are some yummy heart shaped cupcakes. My cousin had made cupcakes in the shape of clovers last year for St. Patricks Day. She did that by rolling up little balls of foil and tucking them into the sides between the cupcake wrapper and the pan so I decided I would try using the same concept for cupcakes and it worked!! I hope you all have a great Valentine's Day!!

Meet the newest member of our family....

This is Rudy. He is a 1 year old Beagle mix. He is super mellow and loves people. He is house trained and loves to follow me around. He is really good with Kennadee and doesn't jump up on her or anyone else for that matter. He is a super sweet doggie and we are super excited to have him in our family!!

Exercise Anyone?

There was an exercise show on TV today I left it on for a minute while I went and did something and when I came back Kennadee was trying to do it so I had to turn on the camera and get in on film!! Sorry it's a little dark but it is hilarious!!
