I figured it out.

I figured it out. Cassidy's infatuation with the bathroom is the tub. She crawls straight into the bathroom over to the tub and then pulls herself up to standing. It is the perfect height for her and it probably feels secure for her to stand next to. She doesn't pull herself up with anything else really. She absolutely loves standing there. She will be in there for quite some time just standing at the tub.

Today I set up some toys for Cassidy on the floor while I took a shower. Well, she just stood at the tub and kept opening the curtain. It was so funny to see her cute little face. I tried to shut the curtain several times but she would work her way back in. She got pretty soaked but she didn't seem to care. Here are some pics after I was done to reinact the moment. Just didn't want you to think I was crazy taking pictures while I was in the shower.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving didn't really go as planned. I got sick with the flu and strep throat. I had been down and out all week. We were going to do Thanksgiving with a friend but didn't want to give them the "sickness" so we made due with what we had and made a great meal. We went to Walmart that morning to get our last items. I wanted to apologize to everyone working there and explain that I had been sick. I felt like such a loser of a woman for shopping Thanksgiving morning.

Ryan and I worked on dinner. Aidan set our table for us and both the kids made name plates for everyone. We had a great yummy turkey, Las Vegas potatoes, rolls, and broccoli salad. So other than the rolls and turkey we were pretty non tradish. Oh we did have Martinellis and toasted to everyone we could think of. Even though I was sick I think the day turned out pretty okay. It was relaxing and at our own pace. I tried to make it fun for the kids so they would know it was special too. For their dessert we made turkey oreos. FABULOUS!
We took naps, watched some movies, and even a little football slipped in and of course we watched the Macy's Parade. So all in all it was a good day.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Lacey's prayer

Lacey's prayer for her sick mommy:

Dear Heavenly Father,
Bless this day. Bless that we will be safe. Bless that mommy will feel better tomorrow. Bless that the Holy Ghost will come back to her heart. Bless the Holy Ghost. In the name of Jesus Christ Amen

My Quirks

Tagged:
1. I hate stuff being put on the dashboard of a car while you are driving around. I don't like seeing it there nor do I like it sliding from one side to the other while you turn corners. I hate stuff on the floor of the car too that will slide around and make noises as you drive. So if you put your mail on the dash of the car and then opened a can of tennis balls and then drove me all over town I would seriously lose my mind.

2. I can't stand it when the microwave clock reads the remaining unused seconds from the timer instead of the clock.

3. I sleep with the sleeve of a sweatshirt over my eyes every night to make it pitch black so I can fall asleep faster. I keep the same sweatshirt under my pillow. I love it so much. I don't like to wear those sleeping mask things because in case of an emergency I don't think I could rip it off fast enough. I feel like I would get all entangled in the elastic. So don't suggest any eye masks cause I love my sweatshirt.

4. I'm married to a pilot and am terrified when I fly. Imagine being scared of what your spouse does for a living. I'm not afraid for him but I am terrified when I am flying.

5. I dry off from the shower in the exact same way every time.

6. I love teeny bopper movies. One of my favs is John Tucker Must Die and can I say yes, I watch The Hills. Can't explain the love.

Crawlin' and Cruisin'

Cassidy is officially on the go. She cruises all over. Her favorite destination? the bathroom. When she sees the door open she b-lines it to get in the door. Not sure what the infatuation is. It is fun to see her explore around and especially show up all the sudden at my feet.
