Color Test

I found this quick test online yesterday. It's from CareerPath.com and it's pretty interesting. All you do is choose which colors are most and least pleasing to you. Not which colors you'd wear or decorate with, but colors that are simply pleasing to your eyes. Check it out. It'll tell you a lot of different careers that you'd probably like or do well in. Tony and I both took it and tend to agree with most everything is said.

Daddy Daycare

Olivia got these new shoes for school and Erin can't get enough of them. Oh, and yes, that's a massive stain (okay stains) down her shirt. I still don't know what happened there. Sometimes I don't even ask. Makes me wonder how much got on Tony...

Shoes? Check. Cack-ee? Check.

Food Funnies

Since there is always some sort of food going on in our house, I thought I'd show some recent highlights. I remember my mom saying to me when I was a kid that it looked like a little mouse got into the...whatever it was she was looking at. I suppose I've always been that way. I didn't want the whole thing, I just wanted a little taste. Well, maybe that's something Erin got from her mom because this kid is the queen of taking a bite and moving on to something else. Don't get me wrong, the kid eats and eats, but sometimes I have to laugh... Where were her parents when this happened??

Erin ate her first corn dog tonight. With very little help, she got to my favorite part...the crunchies on the stick. I'm almost positive that she has never seen me eat a corn dog, so I'm not quite sure how she knew what to do, but my little foodie turned that stick to the side and bit right into the crunchie thing. Like she knew what she was doing. Then she did it again. Then I ran for the camera and she did it one more time!! Gotta get every last bite of goodness.

Ike

We don't have any new pictures to put up...it's been a busy week and I didn't take a single picture. I picked up the camera to get something on video and the batteries were dead. So, I just thought I'd let all two of my readers know that we're still alive...just waiting on a hurricane to come our way.

Olivia and Erin

After Olivia learned to ride her bike last night, the girls came in and ate some dinner. Erin ate first. She had a huge bowl of oatmeal with bananas and then a YoBaby yogurt. But apparently that wasn't enough. She climbed into Olivia's chair and mussled her way into Olivia's chicken nugget dinner. She hollers "biiite, biiiite" every 5 seconds when there's food around, which is pretty much all day long.

I met my friend Kristyn for lunch at Chilis today. Erin got her first balloon from a restaurant today. Until now, she hadn't even acted interested in them. I'm sure she will want one from now on.

Erin loves watching the Sprout channel. Today she was especially excited to see Chica, the little chicken that sings Happy Birthday. I love seeing her get so excited!!

Tony tied the balloon to a pitcher lid so that it wouldn't float to the ceiling. Good idea! She wasn't quite sure why this thing was on her balloon.

Bike Riding Video

Olivia learned to ride her bike last night!!! She is so very proud and calls herself a 'pro'. In the video, she had been riding up and down our alley. It took her all of five minutes to go from being too scared to pedal, to being a real pro. Now all we have to work on is stopping and turning. Then she'll be ready to ride that bike to and from school. We're so proud of you, Olivia!!!
