A must have

Those of you who know Kendyllee, know she loves slippers and crocks. Well we were at Wal-mart yesterday and the Department Manager of the Shoe Department asked what size shoe does Kendyllee wear. I told her a 4 and she handed me these cute Dora Slippers that are crocks and she has just marked them down to $1. I had to buy them. They are a hit. Kendyllee loves them. She wore them until she went to bed last night and then wanted them on first thing this morning.

Kendyllee's home made TOY BOX!

Kendyllee has accumulated so many toys, it is just not working very well having them in the entertainment center. So I started looking online at toy boxes, and HOLY CRAP!! They are very expensive and not sturdy or big enough. I even looked on Craigslist and there was nothing there. So I started thinking of what I could us to make a good sized and sturdy toy box for cheap. And here is my creation. I used a Rubbermaid Tote for the box and then bought some foam letters and decorations that will match her room. So I decorated the box, and then started on the lid. I wanted it to look like a bench, so I used some quilt batting and an old pillow. I covered the lid with the cutest Pink, Purple and Blue Butterfly Fabric, with lace around the edges. Then Owen helped me hot glue the cover to lid and PRESTO! A very nice, cute, cheap and sturdy toy box for our little girl.

We love Bath Time

Bath time at the Jensen house is very fun. Kendyllee loves the tub and playing splashing in the water and watering the bathroom. Here are some cute pics we have of her in her hooded bath towel.

Finally Finished

This is Owen's blanket that I made. It is HUGE. He wanted it big and that is what he got. It is 100 stitches wide and 175 rows long. It took me a very long time, but he loves it.

UH OH! What have I taught her?

Yesterday while I was talking to my mom on the phone, I watched Kendyllee do the funniest thing! She has a doll that she has really learn to love these past couple of days. She took her doll and very upset like, walked over to the corner with it (the one she sits in when she is trouble) and placed it just where she sits and then proceeded to tell it "No No No!!" With a little Kendyllee gibberish in there as well. I about died laughing! Then she walked a couple steps then turned back and faced her dolly who was in "Time out" and told her once again,"No No No"! Then she walked over to me and told me, or at least what I could only imagine was, that her dolly was in big trouble and she put in in the corner!! I think her dolly is going to be named No No! I have no idea what to do with this. I have tried telling her other things, besides No No, when she is doing some thing mischievous. But I guess that is not sinking in like I want it to. I have also started telling her yes when she does some thing good. Any other suggestions? Owen and I really having to start watching what we say in front of her. Not that we say anything bad, but just decided we needed to be more aware of what is coming out of our mouths. What a funny little girl we have!

HACKERS

As many of you know, I have a Facebook account. Well yesterday I had someone hack into my account and send many of my very good friends some very inappropriate videos! (Sorry if any of you received them) Fabulous right? Well that is not the bad thing. They also were nice enough to send me a VIRUS!! Thats right. Our desk top is now out of commission for a while, until we can get it in and have some one clean it up for us. At first I thought, no problem. We have a lap top!! But then I realized that I do all of my bloggin on the desk top. That is where all of Kendyllee's pics are!! So I am not quite sure how I am going to blog in the near future. I might take the pics and save them on the lap top and blog from here or I might just blog like normal with out the pics and then save the post and publish them later when I can add the pics. So I guess we will have to wait and see what happens. For those of you who know me well, know that I am very computer stupid. So I will have to wait and see what kind of program is on the lap top for my pictures.

It really makes me mad that some one had to do this to us. Some people have no life and think it is funny to add a little more turmoil to others lives. GGGRRRR!!

Kendyllee's new bath toy!!

Kendyllee was taking her bath last night and I was in her room putting away her blankets and clothes she always makes a mess of, and I heard this very funny noise coming from the bath room. I walked in and this is what I found her playing with! UGH!!!

She was holding on to the handle and splashing it and out of the water over and over. She thought it was fun and laughed and laughed until I took it away. I know this is not the best toy for her to be playing with. So needless to say...Kendyllee had her very first shower last night.

So Proud

So this is what Kendyllee decided to do instead of taking a nap. She took all of her diapers out of the package and opened most of them. I love it that she knows how to open doors and drawers!!! It is job security for me!
Then when I went to take pictures of her mess, she looked at the camera and had this most proud look on her face. I think she was saying "Look what I did mom,and all by myself!"

Wearing a hat..Daddy style!

The other day, Kendyllee and I both felt like crap, but I had to go to the store. I was not in the mood to fix her hair, so we decided that it was going to be a hat day. I love it when she wears a hat, she looks so much like her daddy.

Palisade Peach Festival Parade

We wanted to do something fun as a family on our Anniversary. So we made the short drive to Palisade to see the parade. Here are some of the fun pics. The parade was fun and short and sweet. It only lasted about 15 minutes and that was perfect for Kendyllee!
My favorite car of the parade!!
These little John Deere tractors were powered by the riders. That's right. They had pedals like bikes.
Aaron and Heidi...these are for you! Love and miss you all!
This old Ambulance was really cool!
This little doggy was soo cute!
Kendyllee loved waving and saying "Bye bye" to all the people as they past by! One of the ladies gave her this pig as she walking by instead of a piece of candy. (What a great idea!) When you squeeze its tummy it oinks!!
This train was awesome.
Love the Caboose
The best looking man I have ever seen!! I am soo blessed to have him as my Eternal Companion!!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO US!!

Today Owen and I are celebrating our 6th Anniversary. Here are a couple of our wedding photos. They are a little blurry because I had to take pictures of pictures since we were married in the stone age before Digital Cameras were a big thing. I hope you enjoy!




I am very grateful to have such a wonderful husband. He is a great father to Kendyllee and sacrifices so much for us everyday. Thank you honey and we love you very much!
