I hate cats!!!!

Preston was having a great day today. He played the piano a bit...does it just crack you up that he is using his toy piano stool? Ha ha. We did some sidewalk chalk in the backyard. Then we went to the park and all is well until....dun dun dun...Preston fell on the steps going up to the slide and I ran to pick him up and when I did...dun dun dun...he had poop on his hands and was covered in short white hair. Pretty sure it was a freakin cat that left his little droppings. The hair was on the slide. I was so grossed out that I wiped him EVERYWHERE with an antibacterial wet wipe that I keep with me at all times. Pretty glad I had them. Hannah enjoyed everything from the stroller. She was just squealing and having a good ol time.
While we're on the subject...we have a neighborhood cat who thinks the rocks in our backyard is it's litter box. I'm not kidding you, we have so much poop in our backyard it's not even funny. I don't know what to do. I know whose cat it is. Some say I should call animal control, some say I should talk to her. But, in reality, if it's an outdoor cat how can they stop it?? What would you do? Preston wants to play back there all the time and I honestly can't stand the fact that it's there and my son wants to play. It could make him so sick if he got into it. I've just about had it. I've chased it out several times but there is so much back there...ugh. I'm open to advice. Help!

Children's Museum and Doggies

Preston has been on a doggie kick lately. Last night we watched 101 Dalmations and he kept pointing and saying "Doggie". He then found every doggie in the house and I found him a little more. He had 10 total. He lined them all up and was so excited about having his own doggies.

We went to the Children's museum yesterday with Preston's little friend, Hayden. They had so much fun!
This was Preston's favorite part. You could put the ball in and the air would carry it up the tube. He would go "woooooooooooooo" and watch it go up and run and get another one. He was amazed!

My lil' cowboy

So, I saw these cowboy boots at Walmart around Christmas time and I reeeeaaaalllly wanted to get them but didn't want to spend the money. Well, I found them on clearance for 5 bucks and pretty much I couldn't resist. His favorite part is taking them off so I can put them back on again. He does this with all shoes but these are really easy to slip off his little feet.

Hannah is officially sitting all by herself. I can't believe she's six months old now. Time really flies. She's also got some really wicked bedhead as shown.
Preston continues to LOVE his sunglasses. He walks around putting them on and taking them off over and over. I have to take them away sometimes so he'll wear his real glasses.
In these pictures he's showing me how old he is and how big he is. Gosh I love that kid.
I'm going to have to take some video of him talking because it's so cute.

fingerpainting

I thought this was worth blogging about. Preston fingerpainted for the first time yesterday and he had a blast. He didn't want to stop. He got so mad when I took him off the chair! It was funny though, he kept wanting me to wipe his hands off and then he would keep going. It just got messier and messier but he sure had fun with it.

My new craft projects

Well, some of you may remember a long time ago a post about a headboard that I made. Well, I re-did it. I liked the other one but it wasn't exactly what I had pictured. So, I found a flannel sheet set on clearance for $7.50 that I thought would look good. It kinda has a micro suede effect. I LOVE it now. Glad I did it.
I also started making these cute little bobby pins for Hannah's hair.

Preston's new words

Preston suprises me with a new word almost everyday. His favorite right now is "Ready, set, go!" He says "gi gi goooooo". I love it. He also says ball, more, 123, please, choo choo, doggie, bye bye, love you, whoops, Mickey, wow, yeah, go, hello and hi, hot, all fall down, grandpa, (sometimes he says grandma but they sound kinda the same) That's all I can think of right now. I'm sure there's more. He brings me my phone and says "grandpa" a lot. He likes to call grandpa, I guess. Whenever he hears my dad's ringtone he says "grandpa". It is so fun to hear all his new words. He's really talking a lot these days.
Hannah isn't feeling well. She has a little fever and whines all the time. I feel so bad for her. I swear I held her all day yesterday. She wouldn't let me put her down. She cried a lot. Luckily she's keeping her food down. She just has a little fever. I thought she might be teething but there's no sign of any teeth yet.
It's been so warm and we're loving it. It's cloudy today and a lot cooler. It's supposed to rain for a few days. That's rare.

Happy Groundhog's Day!

If anyone knows Brad they know today is his favorite holiday! He's even written a poem about it that I wish I still had. I think one of his old roommates has it but it's really funny. So, this one's for you honey! Happy Groundhog's Day!!
