P's new dollhouse bed!

This is it! This is lil misses "princess bed", not the exact one but looks just like this. It can be used as either a bunkbed or we opted to have a full size bed below and a fun play area up top where you can find baby things and a princess vanity:) This little girl abolutely LOVES this thing and so does every other kid that has seen it and there have been quite a few! So fun! Yes, I am the mom that keeps her kids in their cribs forever:) but Im all about what works and whats easy. If it aint broke why fix it? ha! Both of my kids were shy of 3 when I retired the crib hee hee! Ryder was completely content in his and probably still would be had I not switched it:) Paisley before the age of 2 started to climb out of hers which almost gave me a nervous breakdown lol! I was soooo not ready for that one, so thank goodness when my complete and utter desperation realized the way my crib is I was able to take out the bars and drop the mattress to the floor:) whooo hooo! So I was saved! I will say the transitions have been so simple another one of my anxieties. Paisley has never gotten out of her bed and she has had the bed for about 3 weeks I really cant believe it! Ryder really never did either he went through a phase where he would but it wasn't a fight and then he finally told me he just wanted his door opened which solved that problem! Im a pretty lucky gal:)
Let me share the best part..... When I had decided to get this bed a few months ago I had some major changes aka getting prego;0 and all priorities flew out the window I was one hurt puppy, so sadly my babies bed went onto the back burner:( I had found a really good deal online with no tax and free shipping cant beat that right? So when I decided to finally bite the bullet I of course couldn't find my deal:( Everything I saw was around $1,300-1,400 ugh but guess what? I randomely checked craigslist which I did often and couldn't believe I found this bed for... drumroll please..................... $600 bones mattresses included (i opted not to take the twin) which mattresses I am always leery of but these really were in perfect condition not a spot on them and the peeps house was nice and clean lol! Have I mentioned I love craigslist? I know you have to be careful but man there are some great deals to be had:) Anyway there is my long bed story!:) Im gonna post more pics my camera died!

Paisley's threeeee!


My baby girl is 3!!! I cant believe it! As sassy as this litte lassy is she sure is the best! She is such a sweet funny little girl. I wish I can bottle up her voice because it truly is the littlest, sweetest thing you've ever heard. Ryan and I laugh often at her dual personalities it's amazing at how fast she can go from sweet to sassy. It's only a matter of saying no to something she is wanting ha! She's my girl and she loooves her mama which totally makes me feel special nobody holds a candle to lil ole me:) She's a great little shopper and loves babies she is ALWAYS gentle and sweet with them and a sweet genuine smile comes over her face whenever she's around them! She still NEVER EVER watches TV.... never!! It does not keep her interest in the least, she doesn't like books. Whenever I read to ryder she will sit and then wants nothing to do with it. She just wants to go go go! She is creative and would play outside all the time if I would go with her, its just getting too hot! She just recently got a princess bed that is adorable and she loves (pics to come) to play on it! She is just cuteness all around the board and I am sooo happy to be her mommy! She has been such a blessing to us and we are grateful for that sassafrass every.single.day!!!
(no i didnt have any makeup on and I look haggard ha)
We had a nice small swim party at my sisters which was perfect! She had tons of fun and all of her favorite peeps were there! It ended up being the perfect day! We had it on the 12th of June which was unseasonably cool this year so we were able to sit outside comfortably and watch the little fishes swim which they did plenty of!!! She wanted a barbie party aka bawbie so that is what she got:) she loved it!
Isn't that sweet... big bro was letting her have some of his frosting he was so grossed out after ha!
These were the individual little cakes that our favorite little cake lady made:) the kids loved them! They were super cute!
My little cheeser!
My little fish!!! She does so great in the water its so cool to see her swim! She enjoys it so much! She swam for hours that day... love it!!
Good ole barbie! Her cake was soo stinkin cute! P was sooo proud of her cake. Laura really does amaze me with her cakes and they are YUMMY! Check out barbies groovy bangs haha! Paisley had a great birthday! We had her party then her real birthday was on the 17th I always make a cake and have the fam over for dinner if they want to ha! My inlaws werent able to come to either so they wanted to take her out the day before so it felt like the birthday that never ended!!! She was probably so confused lol... She's my big girl and we looove her soooo much!!! Happy birthday P:)
