Our sunroom...

Our sunroom was supposed to be wired on Thursday. Then it was pushed to today. Now it's Monday.

The electrician has had a death in his friend / family circle and that's totally understandable and we aren't upset at him, but I was geared up to do some work this weekend. I'm kind of wondering if we could move a few things in there today without making things hard for him on Monday...

I need to move my body. I took a break from skating so my booty butt could heal and it hasn't hurt in a week+. If I can't do some lifting around here it might be time to strap my wheels back on. Along with ALL the padding because it's been a couple weeks. 😂

Anyone who knows Shadow...

Anyone who knows Shadow knows that he's that third kid, 100%.

Polite as can be, but will karate your ass the whole time. 😂😂😂

❤️❤️❤️

Here she is again...

Here she is again with a homemade peanut butter cup. She used semi-sweet chocolate on these and I like that a lot. 

Sorry for the photo of this half-eaten one, but she said she didn't think they were pretty enough for pics so I had to stop eating mine and get a photo. 😂😂😂

I want y'all to know that this kid sneaks up on us with these desserts. She walked behind the couch so she could surprise me with it. Kira is so sweet and funny. 😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️


Kira struck again last night...

Kira struck again last night with these oatmeal raisin cookies. This photo isn't even the whole batch! My gosh - this kid is gonna have to slow down.

The house smelled so warm and delicious last night. And these cookies are so good! ❤️❤️❤️

I'm here with an update about Rose.

I'm here with an update about Rose.

The good news:  She's doing better with the sunroom right now.

The bad news:  More changes are coming starting Thursday when electricity is run to it and we start moving stuff in.

The other night Shaun lost his patience and that is not something I often see.  Let me tell you the story:

We'd been leashing Rose to take her outside through the sunroom so that we wouldn't have to chase her down to come in because that's not good for any of us.  She was doing really well and started to run through the sunroom to get out as long as we held the door to the outside open (so the room won't "get" her, I guess.  Who knows).  Anyway.  She was coming back in the same way so that was good.  She was improving and being less scared so we let her be brave and do it without a leash.

The last time she went out it all went wrong.  Shaun did the same thing he'd been doing ALL DAY and Rose would not come to him or run through the room.  She would stick her head in like she wanted to, but then just couldn't do it.  He eventually gave up and told me he was done - that I could deal with her.  I 100% do not blame him.  So I gave it a few minutes and went to get her.  I went to the door.  I turned on the porch light because it had gotten dark and I like to see.  I called her and held the door open. And she came in.

The porch light is the only thing I did different than Shaun. 

It was dark and she needed the porch light, y'all. 🤦🏻

So anyway, she starts an antianxiety tomorrow morning.

I went to bed last night...

I went to bed last night and woke up to this gorgeous chocolate chip banana bread. Apparently Kira decided to bake it in the middle of the night. 😂

She used mini semi-sweet chocolate chips so the chocolate isn't too much. It's so good! And moist! She says she's going to try some nuts in it next time. Yum!

Kira hasn't stopped.

Kira hasn't stopped. Last night she made this kick-ass banana pudding. She used Chessman cookies instead of 'Nilla Wafers and it is SO GOOD.

She's talking about making banana bread tonight or tomorrow, but we haven't even finished the pudding! She's on a roll right now. 😂😂😂 She's having fun and it all tastes good so no complaints from us! ❤️
