Dress update: I have been working it =) I just finished a Zumba workout and feel pretty good. My dress is being shortened right now. The wedding is exactly 6 days away. I completed my first 90 day challenge. I did not reach my 30 lbs goal BUT I did drop 26 lbs and for that I am extremely pleased. It's the first thing I have been able to do and stick to. Anyone who is scratching their head saying "I really want to try it but will it work for me" TRY IT!!! What do you have to lose? I was that person who said that very same thing. I have NO REGRETS. Starting my 2nd 90 challenge and I am not sure what I am going to set as my goal yet. First things first =) I need to fit in that dress =).
Play-dates: So we have never really been the play-date family. Only because we have never had time. Not knowing how long I will be a stay at home mom we have been soaking them all in =). The girls love playing with their friends. Having them come over and play here is so fun for them. Today we get to have our friends Lilly and Lola come over and they couldn't be more stoked about it. It's the little things in life that bring the most happiness to them and I love that!

Chalkboard Wall: I went back and for on what I was going to do with the loft. It's sort of their play area so I wanted it to be fun. Still haven't really decided what I am going to do with the rest of the walls. I painted one wall to see if I would like it and well I LOVE IT!!! It gives the girls a spot to play school, practice writing their spelling words, draw and just be as creative as they want to be. =) I want the girls to explore and create things and not be afraid to try something.
Tooth fairy FAIL: Ally had to have two teeth pulled from the dentist because she has permanent teeth growing and the baby teeth weren't even a little loose. Both girls are HUGE believers in the tooth fairy. She put both teeth in this little tiny box and put it under her pillow. I went to go to bed and went to her room grabbed the box and never even put one ounce of thought into the fact that she would want to keep the little box she got from the dentist. She woke up SO excited to find money under her pillow but she was not happy at the fact that the tooth fairy took the whole box. So she made a card for the tooth fairy asking her to safely return the box as soon as possible. =)
front of the card (bad picture I know but it was late)
So what do most parents do? Return the box and just put it under her pillow right???? NOT ME!!! I decided to help out with "official tooth fairy business" I even created a tooth fair stationary. =) I typed up a note (because if it was in my handwriting she would have known) I put the little box and the note underneath it.
When I took the picture it cut out the bottom. It said P.S. Please tell your sister to hurry and pull out that loose tooth she has. I have been waiting to come and pick it up =).
That is my family update for the week. I spend every morning look for new jobs to apply for. I have not heard back from anyone on interviews. I tell myself everyday that God has it in control. He sees our bills and he sees our needs and he will provide for us. I do my part and just let God do his. When the time is right he will open the right door.
