Today the girls celebrated Dr. Seuss's birthday at school. Every year they get to dress up as a character from one of their favorite books and be part of the school parade.

This year KK was Kit Kitridge from the American Girl Series. She was excited to sport the "old fashioned look"

Tayler almost decided on Hermoine (again), but went the vampire route instead. check out that eye-makeup!

I've been busy getting important things done before the baby like sneaking in a date night with this guy. (thanks grammy and papa!)

and getting all things "baby" organized.

Next week I have a haircut/ pedicure scheduled. (that will be nice, it's been a while!) Those sort of things never make the list anytime soon after having a baby.


Oh and I've been trying very hard to get Ben all pottytrained before the baby! Wow, I think we're going on like 5 months now. There are some good days and some not so good days. Like yesterday when we were at the park with friends for the afternoon.... before I knew it Ben was running through the playground bear bum and all after having an accident... I'm not so quick these days so it took me a while to catch him. (Let's just say that was better than the time before at the park...) Two more weeks to try to get this all figured out! Come on ben, work with me!
