Baseball game, Carnival fun, Smiling, Organizing

Tripp ended up having a wonderful time at the Indians/Royals game (probably because of the endless Dippin Dots, popcorn and cotton candy) and can't wait to go again!

Saturday we went to support Indian Valley Elementary at their carnival since my sister in law, Stacy, is PTA president. The kids had lots of fun with their cousins, playing games, winning little prizes, bouncing on the big inflatables, eating junk, and just seeing so many kids. I think both Tripp and Jack were pretty overwhelmed at the site of kids EVERYWHERE but they loved it.

Sure the kids had fun but so did we! There were tons of raffles and auctions. Tripp found his raffle prize he wanted...a huge gardening package for kids & adults (middle picture of the collage)...and he sat in front of it and guarded it like it was his job, basically eyeing anyone attempting to put their name in the raffle bag. Surprisingly we did win Tripp's schmorgasboard of gardening supplies but we also won several other much-wanted prizes...who would've thought?! My mother in law won the best prize...4 VIP tickets to the Dr Phil show! Talk about awesome!

Charlotte has started smiling all the time and I finally have a picture. She's also started "talking" all the time...her favorite place is on the changing table. She's still sleeping all the time (seriously probably 20 hrs a day) and through the night so we feel very lucky!

No reason why that typing above is huge but I cannot change it!

I think I've figured out who she looks like...me. I thought she looked nothing like me until I looked at my baby pictures. I'm going to have to scan one of my baby pictures and let you see and you can tell me what you think.

I spent Monday and half of Tuesday reorganizing my pantry and kitchen and promised my mom pictures so here's the pantry...you should have seen it before...horrendous.
