Stupid Kelly's Kids!

I am a shopaholic. There, I said it.

I pride myself on the way my kids look and I love buying matching outfits. Kelly's Kids is a company that sells quality children's clothing in classic styles. In March I decided to host a party so I could earn some free clothes. I bought 3 oh so cute matching outfits for Raeleigh and Rudy and could hardly wait the 4-6 weeks for them to come in. Little did I know their customer service STINKS!!

It has been 2 months today since I placed my order. I just called customer service to check the status of my order. Guess what!? They have shipped PART of my order!! AHHHH! When I called customer service 2 weeks ago they gave me a $20 credit code...how sweet...I can buy half a pair of pants! Rudy is going to outgrow these clothes before I ever get them in! I am SO MAD!

Well, here it is...

..Jillian Michaels 30 day shred



I read about this on Angela's blog and decided I had to have it since I have procrastinated for 3 months and I am not down to 21 days until vacation. Ugh.

So yesterday was day one. It's intense. At first I was thinking jumping jacks and crunches? Seriously?! I thought it was going to be a piece of cake. Umm...no. But it wasn't as bad as I had anticipated after reading this and this. I will be honest and say that I forgot to buy weights and I am going to bet that will make a huge difference in day 2! My abs were very sore last night and Brandon said his legs hurt from all the squats. I felt much more "burn" from this that from my hip hop abs workout that I do everyday once a week. Now we move on to day 2. Surely it will get easier as the days go by...and it will all be worth it I actually feel comfortable in a swim suit this summer! So who is with me???

Field Trip

Yesterday we all went with Raeleigh to the Tupelo Buffalo Park and Zoo for her class field trip. We had so much fun and were exhausted by the time we got home! I can't believe her first year of school will be over in a week! Here are some pictures from our day!

YAY!!!!!!

Holy Cow! Raeleigh just went in the bathroom, lifted the lid, put her potty seat on the toilet and was trying to get her pants down when I got in there. I sat her on the potty and she went!!! She got down, helped me get her pull-up and pants back on, flushed, and rubbed germ-x on her hands!! YES YES YES!!!

Raeleigh's IEP Meeting

Last week was Raeleigh's IEP meeting. She has come so far this year! When she was tested in August she was between an 11-18 month level in all areas. After being tested last week she has increased to a 36 month level in every area except speech. Her speech has gone from 11 months to 28 months which is still awesome to me! She will be in the same preschool class next year and then the plan is to move to regular PreK-5.

She is growing up so much! She no longer "looks" like a baby or toddler but like a little girl. We have a busy summer ahead of us with all of the appointments. She will be going to the dentist for the first time, seeing a nutritionist, getting screened for AAI, and hopefully seeing the ENT and having tubes put in her ears. She will also be taking her first plane ride when we go to Sesame Place in a few weeks!
