we got a package!

so we got a package from nana the other day and it had everything we could ever need for the next little while in it...so THANK YOU NANA!!! anywho, before we get to the good stuff, i wanted to show my brilliance, i decided a while ago that i needed some hot curlers, and im very happy i did... it makes doing the girls hair a little easier since we've discovered Nikoy may have daddy's hair color but its definatley mommy's hair, even drowned in everything from hair spray, mousse, gel, you name it, the curl doesnt last long, if i leave it be after washing the natural curl is still there, but any long pretty ringlets i do are gone within an hour... so i got the hot rollers so before family pictures i could roll her hair and take out the rollers just before picture time, and heres the result!!



with curlers!

after curlers!!! GORGEOUS!!!

Kaylee with the littler rollers,
and after...GOREOUS!!!!
so pretty and curly!! and yes we are watching sword in the stone, its one of mommy's favies....

so in the package the girls and i got some super soft wibbies (thats anderson for blankies...) the girls have matching princess wibbies and i got tinkerbell...:) i love tinkerbell....:) anywho, yes, kaylee is curled up in a laundry basket, on her bed...........it doesnt look to comfy but she slept for an hour and a half so she must have liked it...

so i've done some fun decorating (if you can all it that....*sigh*) in the girls room, and other then the care bears on the shelf, and Kaylees pooh bear bed set its almost fit for a princess, i only wish i could paint the walls, they would have a soft pink room and i would probably cut stencils of tiara's and they'd have tiara's and hearts all over the place, i dunno, i havent decided... anywho.. i cant do it here so i have time to plan..

thier beautiful disney outfits (thank you nana!!) will continue to be decorations even after they have outgrown them..im going to MAKE some pretty padded hangars, each hangar will match the dress, and some even more fun
coat hangars, im going to see if i can find somewhere that will make me little wooden hearts, then im going to drill a big enoug hole to insert a dowel, and WALLAH! paint one pink, one blue and one green and i'll have some super cute dress hangars! anywho... im rambling..

kaylee's pooh bear bed set doesnt quite match the room yet, but give it time. as soon as we find out whats going to happen to us we'll fix that... (no we still dont know whether or not we're staying airforce....you'll know when we know....oy.. i hate the waiting!) anywho...just before we leave for our next base we are going to sell or just toss these cute little white metal toddler beds, and get a fun (safe-ish) bunk bed. we went to ikea the other day and nikoy found the bunkbeds and wanted one so bad, we watched her and kaylee climb up a few different ones so figure nikoy would be on top kaylee would be on bottom.. and when nikoys not in bed sleeping the ladder will be put up, so there wont be any accidents..... anywho...(we've already got the twin size bedding for them.. all we need is the bed! he he he.. )

anywho, in the packages nana was wonderful enough to send the costumes we've been searching for, these arent official pictures mind you, there will be more... oh yes there will be more, nikoys hair will be so curly she could get tangled in it... anywho... enjoy these...

nikoy is going as her hero, sleeping beauty. and it suits her... she's got the long blonde hair the blue/grey eyes (depends on which sleeping beauty picture your looking at..) and she's pretty in pink or blue.....

and Kaylee is CLEARLY cinderalla, no im not kidding she IS cinderella... look!^^^^^^ see!! yes we've replaced her head band, its a lighter blue one that matches the dress perfectly! and she now has a black choker instead of a blue...you'll see.... and in the spirit of the season, my dear friend merritt has decided to dress her daughter as a matching princess, unfortunatly, there were no cute ariel costumes that we could find, but merritts mom managed to find a beautiful snow white costume! so yes, aryka is a red headed snow white, and its beautiful!!

i took alot of pictures... you would too if your kids were this cute!!

Kaylee has unfortunatly discovered a new habit that drives mommy up every wall in the house at least twice.... as soon as the camera comes out she starts crying.....unless someone else is taking the picture.... then she's happy and fine....but if mommy's behind the camera....SCREWED!! we also learned that kaylee is terrified of my nice soft comfy velvet background... so as soon as the backdrop was taken away...she smiled.....oy...

all three of them make beautiful princesses, rulon, aryka's little brother, is going to be a very handsome knight in shinning armor! we just need him to get feeling well enough for a picture....

cory and i havent decided what we want to dress up as (if we dress up at all, i may just go in my pajams and when people ask what i am i'll simply reply: "tired"....) cory's thinking of doing something along these lines..

creepy, is it not? kind of dark and misterious.....i told him he needs to where his tux and be a evil prince or vampire, but he smiled and reminded me of his braces, and i giggled and said, "vampires can wear braces, who wants crooked fangs?" he didnt think it was funny... anywho.. sorry no pictures of sherry today, my rosaecea (rose-ay-she-uh) has decided to come back and haunt me... so... yeah.. it sucks.. anywho... if i ever choose a costume i'll be sure to take a picture..
we'll have family halloween pictures.. :)

anywho, on a last note, you'll remember when i mentioned going to ikea? well i've got a new addition to my fox family, most of you well know sherry has some psycho obsession with foxes, in fact my fox family has a total of 33 members so far... and this mommy and baby are my newest ikea members!
aint they cute!!
these are my german foxes, yes even my key chain is a fox... deal with it!! and yes that is a zoo animals plate, its a fox, so it belongs in my family and if anyone ever finds a copy of the book "i love you because your you" stop and read it, its sooooooo cute!! anywho...

this is the whole collection, except the two knives..:) yes 2... fox knives....what can i say? im obsessed.... and the drawing to the right, if you cant see it very well, really is amazing, i'll have to scan it in and put it on here, it is courtesy of my favie big sister, she is an AMAZING artist! so yes... my fox family is always looking for new members...:) anywho. thanks for sitting around and listening to my rambling.. i know i can go on and on and on and on and on..:) i LOVES YOU ALL!!! be safe and we miss you!
