Seattle

Ethan had to go to a training in Seattle from July 13th- July 17th. It was a long week but we decided to make it a fun week ie spend as much money as we want on anything that we want. We ate out, we played with friends, we slept over at Aunt Kays, we swam, we shopped, we stayed up late, watched too much tv, ate too much junk food, didnt' exercise, went to IKEA, and did lots of other fun things. The girls were so good and the week really did go fast, but it was nice to have Ethan come home. The night that Ethan came home Kelsey literally sang "I'm so glad when daddy comes home" over and over and over until she fell asleep. It was the cutest thing I've ever heard.

 While Ethan was gone Madi learned to sit up and Kelsey drew lots of pictures

 One day while I was cleaning out my closet, Kelsey wanted me to trace her hand so I did. I went back into my room only to hear a muffled "Mom. Come trace my face." I walked out to find this...

While Ethan was gone I finally took the time to go through my closet and do my favorite thing in the whole world. DI STUFF!!! It took hours but I loved every minute of it. After I did that I went shopping and finally spent the birthday money that I didn't want to spend on clothes while I was pregnant in December. We headed to Target.
Little did I know an adventure was forming.
While inside Target, I was grabbing stuff to try on when I thought I heard a rumble from Madison who was sitting in her car seat. I went to go check on her and without being gross there was poop EVERYWHERE!!! I don't know how this girl did it but there wasn't an ounce of clothing front or back there wasn't a spot on the carseat or her toys not covered. Okay what do I do?
I threw everything in the cart, told Kelsey to hold on and we ran, literally, to the baby section to find the first cheap but cute thing that I could find. Kelsey grabbed a cute dress and luckily it was the right size and 7 bucks. We grabbed the dress and ran to the check out stand where I had to wait for like 3 people to check out. I bought the dress while explain that I wasn't shop lifting the other articles of clothing in my cart, and sprinted to the bathroom all the while Kelsey running after me. Luckily no one was in the bathroom so we were able to use all the room (and sinks) we need to clean up. After 20 minutes everything with Madison was taken care of and I started to leave when Kelsey goes "Mom. I need help" Kelsey who at the time was struggling with stomach issues had a little problem herself that we needed to take care of. Finally after about 30 minutes total in the bathroom we left to go clean the carseat and finished shopping. Oh the joys of shopping with kids. I don't know how, but some how I managed to laugh my way through this one :)

Heres the dress Kelsey found. Everytime Madi wears it I think of our little adventure
