Black Friday.... I know I know a little late

I just got these pictures from my sweet baby sister Katie. She was the only one that brought a camera with us on that infamous day.

We started at Toys R Us at 3:30 AM. It was cold and it was dark... but we were only about 20 back from the front of the line. By the time the doors opened at 5 am, the line was wrapped all the way past RC Willeys front door and around the corner. We had a stragey this year. Basically... grap and shove. No, not really, but we ran.... and we grabbed only what we came for and then headed for the checkout. We made it in and out of Toys R Us in 8 minutes!! Pretty dang good I think.

We were then off to Target where they opened at 6 am. Although we were farther back in line, we still got in and out of there in 15 minutes. All I wanted was Playdo.... $6.00 playdo... Silly I know!!

Anyway, we then hit Walmart & ShopKo before heading home. I made it home by 9 am.

I was exausted but was able to get most of my Christmas shopping done in 5 hours.

Shopping the Ads the day before

What a fake smile... I was tired!!

Does this count?

I am wondering if this counts as rolling over?

Paige Update...

just a few more pictures from Paige's "adventures"


This time... Measuring Cups up the stairs.

All my pillows laid out over the floor...

A day in the life of....

Yes, I have posted ALOT about this little girl lately... mostly because she is always into something or doing something she shouldn't.

Here are just a few things she has done lately that I caught with the camera.

Oh, and these both happened the same day.

Diapers going ALL the way up the stairs

Found my pack of Garage Sale Stickers and posted them all over herself

Come on Paige... you are worth more then that

First "REAL" Haircut

I always knew that I would one day have that little girl that somehow found a pair of scissors and somehow managed to cut her own hair. I just hoped and prayed that when it happened, that same little girl would do it in such a way that would not require a total chopping of her hair.

Paige did indeed find a pair of scissors and did indeed cut her own hair... twice... where was I you ask that would not have noticed her cutting her hair... twice? Well, this little girl is slick. Fortunately she only cut a small portion in the front of her head... kind of by her bangs. It was hard to even notice. So, I do not think this event would classify as her first haircut.

Last week she got her first "real" haircut. It was time. The girl is over three and never had her hair professionally cut before. Here are some pictures of her new look.The Before Picture... man her face needs to be wiped.

The during... I love the smile

I think she likes it!!
The final look!! Now I just need to keep it out of her eyes
