PIGTAILS!!!!

Oh how I have waited for this day.....Kendall finally has enough hair (well almost) to put in pigtails! I'm not sure how Kendall ended up with such STRAIGHT hair when both Terry and I have wavy hair. Tonight I was finally able to get her to sit long enough to let me try and put her hair up. Once she saw herself in the mirror she loved it. Tomorrow morning we are going to try and do them again for school....we'll see how that turns out. Here are a few pictures of Kendall's first debut in pigtails...





This is what she did when I told her to smile pretty for the camera....




Enough already with the pictures mom!

Self Explanatory

(hey at least she actually "smiled" at the camera)

Conversion

This weekend we decided to convert Kendall's crib into a toddler bed. No reason, she has never tried to climb out of the crib, but just felt like it was time. We tried to involve her in the process of converting the crib so she would hopefully think it was pretty cool. She seemed to enjoy taking all of daddy's tools and running off with them laughing and trying to bang on everything she could find. At last the bed was completed and she wanted to give it a test...Harley had to test it out too, of course. She did great the first night and never tried to get out (at least I think so, well I never heard her). We had to completely shut the door until we get a baby gate to put up for the stairs. Again last night had no problems. So I am hopeful that this is a success and we can now move onto serious potty training.....


(OMG Do you see directions on the floor?!?! Do you think he actually used them?)


My favorite reading spot


Hmmmm not too bad


Harley likes it too!
(Now if I could only get him to sleep with Kendall and out of my bed we would be set!)

WWE Raw Live- Ft. Lauderdale, Florida

Yes that is correct we, as a family (minus Kendall) made a trip down to Ft. Lauderdale this past weekend to catch a WWE Raw Live event. It was Santa's gift to the boys for Christmas. The weekend started out with us getting a lovely rental car for the 5 hour ride. We initially wanted to get a "Prestige/Fun" car-you know like a Jaguar or a Hummer- to make it a little more exciting....however, Hertz (Terry's choice of car rental and where he has a gazillion points) doesn't offer "Prestige/Fun" cars in the Jacksonville area. The closest one is Orlando!! So we went with just a full size car and they upgraded us to a Cadillac so it was still a pretty nice ride and best of all it was FREE!

Next stop the hotel. Once again we maximized our dollar by using hotel points Terry has acquired for work. We were able to get a suite at the CROWNE PLAZA in Ft. Lauderdale. We were upgraded once again to the concierge floor. The kids were pretty excited about that. This too was FREE!



The hotel is across the street from Sawgrass Mills, the second largest mall in Florida. It is GIGANTIC. It would literally take all day to shop the mall. If I only had more time......

For dinner before the big event we went to the Rainforest Cafe at Sawgrass Mills. The decorations were pretty cool. Kendall would have loved it, but I think it was a little to "kiddy" for the boys...but they seemed to have a good time anyway since we let them order whatever they wanted-no restrictions.

On to the big event of the night....Okay so I know that wrestling is fake and all, but in person it is even faker (is that even a real word?) It was pretty laughable. The ring is also so much smaller in person than on TV. To enjoy the evening however we got into it and were cheering them on. I must admit I may have gotten a little too into it at times-just doing it for the kids, right? The best part was when one of the wrestlers (Randy Orton) almost got into a real fight with a fan. The police came in and took the man out and he was really putting up a fight with them as well. Terry started chanting "Tase him!" and everyone joined in, it was pretty funny. All in all I guess it wasn't that bad, but I won't be going back again. To commemorate the event Terry bought me my very own HBK Cowboy Hat (for those of you that aren't wrestling fans, HBK= Heart Break Kid a/k/a Shawn Michaels).



Once again, no pictures till I can get a cable to connect Terry's camera to the computer.....I'm sure yall are all just hanging on to the edge of your seats for those.
