Me Time

Ivy and Madison went to the beauty shop yesterday. They have a standing appointment every six weeks (can't slack on the beauty regime) and I decided the girls were in the mood for a new, summer look. After a little consultation, shorter ears and our regular trim is what we decided to go for.

You know, you can't win them all. The Cleopatra bob just isn't for everybody.

Campbell has had the opportunity to play with a couple of different friends play kitchens and he is always obsessed with the pots and pans. Obsessed. I decided to go to the store and get him some of his own and now he just walks around with his little pots and picks stuff up to put in it. Ivy tore apart one of her toys and Campbell went around the room gathering up the stuffing and putting it in his strainer. My little picker upper. So proud of him! He's clearly catching on to my OCD ways. I'm constantly going behind him and picking up his messes. Now, after he pulls all of his books off his bookshelf, he puts them back up. Warms my heart like you couldn't even possibly imagine. That's something to be proud of right there.

I'm happy to report that MDO has gone much better this week. Campbell cries when I dropped him off but I watch behind the little window and he calmed down both Monday and today within less than a minute. He's happily playing when I pick him up and they always tell me he's had a great day. While Campbell is at MDO I'm working on my tan and hanging out with my neighbor friends at the pool. It's something I've been planning on doing since last summer and the relaxation has been so nice. I've already read one book and am currently into another. It's good for Momma's to have some "me" time. The pool is my favorite kind.
