If we like it, we will buy it on Friday when Trent's bonus goes through the bank. But not just the bed. two nightstands and the dresser! We are also going to go out to eat tonight.  We will need new bedding for the bed. So for a little birthday present for myself  (my birthday is Friday) I will be buying this one:

I love it. Like I said, super excited!

Happy Tuesday!

Sunday means confessing

Confession time! I decided to do it again!

1. I picked WSU to beat GONZAGA last night. Gonzaga's schedule was not that great this year. I mean really? Whoever picked them to win it all doesn't know much about them or basketball.

2. I'm so ready for summer. I have some adorable pants calling my name. And I can't wear them because it's really cold outside. And still snowing.

3. This week, I wanted to move back to Kansas. I miss my friends, my doctors, my dentist...the list goes on. You name it, I probably missed it.

4. I need my mom to come organize my house. Seriously. It needs help.

GO SHOCKERS!

GO WICHITA STATE! BEAT GONZAGA!

So this week has not been the best. I'm tired and stressed out. Frankly, I need a vacation. My patience has been very thin the last two days and I've been pretty grumpy. I was a little short with Caitlin this morning and when I sat down to play with her I put her on my lap and hugged her and told her I was sorry and we played and had fun together. I put her down for a nap and got my phone out and got on Instagram. I follow Stephanie Nielson on there and she had posted a picture of a poem she has hanging in her bedroom. It was the answer to my prayers today and what I needed to see. It says:

Oh, give me patience when wee hands
Tug at me with their small demands
And give me gentle and smiling eyes
Keep my lips from hasty replies
And let not weariness, confusion, or noise
Obscure my vision of life's fleeting joys
So when, in years to come my house is still
No bitter memories its room may fill

Today, I am very grateful for a Heavenly Father who knows me personally and will help when I call. Happy Friday!

Have bonus, will buy bed.

So Trent should FINALLY have his bonus very soon and I have found some beds I like. I need help picking one ( I can't have them all.) Here are the ones I like. You can help me decide! Let me know which one you like the best! My favorite is #1.

Have you filled out your NCAA basketball bracket yet? I did! I have KU winning it all. Of course. Happy Monday!

Potty training: Day 1

Well, I would call this day a success. I decided to bite the bullet and potty train Caitlin. It went wonderfully! She only had two accidents all day AND she stayed dry at nap time. Thanks to my mom, who told me how to do it. I'm hoping for less or no accidents tomorrow. I can feel freedom calling my name.

This is my favorite picture this week. I love her.

Confession time!

Ok so my friend Alyx does this every week in her blog http://www.itsalyx.com/ so this week I linked up and decided to give it a shot!

Here we go:

1. I actually LIKE living in Utah. It really hasn't been that bad. I've run into a couple things which were typical Utah but it's been good so far.

2. I would REALLY like to live in France. If they change their government to one that suits my taste, I will be their newest citizen.

3. I HATE shopping. I would rather shop online. Once they figure that out for groceries, I will be set.

4. I think the only person that reads my blog is my mom. Seriously.

That's it! Happy Sunday!

Playing at the park

It was 61degrees today. And very windy. But, being from Kansas, we braved the wind and put our jackets on and strolled to the park. We had fun. Caitlin loves the slides.

Caitlin is stylin'

Caitlin loves sunglasses. Here are some recent pictures of her stylin' in her sunglasses:

She is too cool
