Paint and Parties

We have been working hard to get our bonus room cleaned out and turned into a playroom. We still have a few things to do before it's ready, but I will post pics when it's done! I made a few canvas' for decor and thought I would let Katelyn help a little with some finger paint fun on one of them! My plan was to put hand and foot prints all over one of the canvas', but I had to settle for one of each, otherwise it would have turned into one big blob :o) I think she had fun playing in it though, except for the fact that I wouldn't let her eat it!



I just had to include this one because it was so cute.


On Saturday we went to our friend, Janie's, 1st Birthday Party and Katelyn really had a great time. Only a few more months until Katelyn will be celebrating too...crazy!

Getting ready for the party in her new outfit and shoes!


Loving the wind in her face and the balloons!

I am very proud of my very first eBay win! I have never bought anything on eBay before (Lex has, but I never have), guess I've just been afraid of what I'll end up getting. Anways, I found a big lot of 15 toys for the playroom at about 18% of the actual retail cost of these toys (including shipping), so I couldn't pass that up! I am very pleased that every toy works great and barely looks used at all. Now I'm looking for a Fisher Price Laugh and Learning Home (if you know of anyone selling one, let me know!) They look so cute, but a little pricey to buy new now that I've experienced the art of eBay!

What a great deal! Look at all those toys!

I have painted the room, so more pics to come once the playroom is all put together!

It looks like Katelyn was really getting into that painting. All the pictures you send are a window into her life for us.
Thanks so much,
