Kennedy is a monkey....


So, her new very favorite thing to do is play with toilet paper. She doesn't just pull it off the roll and string it all over the house--she shreds it to bits and then strings it all over the house and she does so in the most quiet and stealthy way imaginable! She has shredded 4 rolls of toilet paper to date--I am so cheap that I save all the shreds and force my family to use them. I have a pile in each bathroom and in the laundry room! This picture (above) is of me catching her in the act--I think I startled her a little...


But, as you can see, it makes a huge mess

What a little monkey---ooohhh, if only she weren't so cute!

And I am proud to annouce that I have finally stretched Kennedy's small amount of hair into two little pixie pigtails! Yeahhh!!!! I didn't know if it would be possible, but I did it and it stayed! She didn't like me messing with her hair (I had to do it fast, much like trimming her fingernails) but she will just have to learn that beauty hurts (just kidding--I don't really want her to think that...hmmm...I'll just have to phrase it differently I guess---"that's life"???)

Anyway, it's amazing how big and cute she looks with ponytails--I love it!

Hey...you can never be to cheap with prices now day, but that is way to funny that you save the shreds. You go girl! :)

I can't believe you save the TP, that's funny :) What a naughty little one. I love the pigtails too, I don't think my little girl will ever have hair so I will just dream :) Congrats on potty training! Aiden has been trained for a year and I still don't even bother with night time, I just do the pull up even though he stays dry 95% of the time...it's that 5% chance I don't want to mess with in the middle of the night, so you are braver than I :)

You forgot to mention that the elastics you used for Kennedy's pixie ponytails were intended for Sean's teeth!!!!

Those pig tails are the cutest lil' things on Kennedy! P.S. I remember using toilet paper that was hung on our trees from being toilet papered... I'm not sure who's idea that was!!!
