Our New Addition

I would like for you to meet the newest addition to our home.


Isn't she pretty? She was given to me by the same WONDERFUL woman who gave Avery this rocking chair...


And these onesies....


The girls room in the new house isn't quite ready for a reveal, but here is just the wall with our newest addition...


Love. Love. Love.

We got to go hang out with Kristen last night at her house, which is SSSOOOOOOO cute by the way. She is so creative and I can just see her blog filled with all of her wonderful ideas and cute crafts. We are going to work on that in the next couple of weeks, aren't we Kristen? I know you are reading. Avery loved Kristen's elves. She had two plush elves that Avery just carried around her house (by their legs, of course). Why didn't I get any pictures, you ask? Because my phone was almost dead. I didn't charge it like I should have. She also made this wonderful dinner of Mexican food, it was YUMMY!!!

You might notice a box beside Avery's crib. Well, I found this idea on pinterest one day...

And I just thought that is such a cute idea! (I didn't even notice that this room has a rocking chair too, just like ours!) I don't think we have room in their room for this, though. Well, I also read a blog about a woman who poked holes in the top of a box and inserted Christmas lights (kind of like stars) and I loved that too. Avery crawled inside of this box one day in the living room and I thought, I bet I could paint this and do some stuff with it to make it a little spot where she could go. Well, the box fit and there have been a couple of times we've looked for Avery and found her hiding in her box, so I think over the Christmas vacation, that will be a project of mine. I mean, it's not like I don't have anything else going on, right?


You'll also notice our brown sheets are back on the windows. The black curtains we had didn't fit the new windows, but they did fit in Jordan's room and the brown curtains I had underneath (which you can see from this post) actually went up in my foyer. So, now, I have about three rooms worth of curtains to get. We will see if I can get that done this weekend. It's a need we have, definitely.

Have a great Friday!

Guess Who Has A New Potty???

This girl!! Jason and I took Avery to Target tonight to find a potty chair. We didn't know what kind to get. When we got there, she loved the Sesame Street one. It's the kind that sits on the toilet, not an actual chair. I've heard both reasonings on a chair and a pad for the real toilet. On one hand, the chairs are little and easier for them to sit on and they aren't scary to flush. On the other, the pad doesn't require you to have to clean out a chair and they teach kids to sit on the big potty from the get go. What it really came down to was that we just don't have a big bathroom at all, so keeping an actual chair in the bathroom would have been hard. So we got the pad. It has a little hook that you attach to the tank, so you can hang the pad on it. I love this!  I have no intention of actually potty training Avery full out, just yet. I don't think she is ready. But I have heard it's good to have one that they can practice sitting on and get u...

Some Changes...

We've been going through a bit of a transition at the Whitehead household the last month or so. I haven't really talked too much about it because I wasn't ready, to be honest. It's just a lot of change and I've been trying to figure it out in my head.   As of three weeks ago last Friday, I am no longer a full time work out of home employee.   I can't believe I just said that.   It's been the plan for several months now for me to go into real estate and it was always assumed I'd be doing that part time, while keeping my full time job. Plans kind of changed when Jason got his promotion. He'd always has a job that allowed him a lot of flexibility. In sales, especially after you've been in a position for a while, it just sort of happens that way. He could take Avery to daycare and pick her up, he could take her to doctor's appointments, he could even do chores around the house in the afternoon, while I was at work. I had some flexibi...
