Mocking Bird

Like I said before McCall is a Mimmiker, She has to do every thing that I or Tyler do. Here a some examples.

Wearing her daddy's boots
She also likes to paint her fingernails when nobody is looking. One day after I used all of the nail polish remover to get old nail polish off McCall decided that she needed to paint her nail also. Except for she also painted the carpet and every inch of her body. Here is the results.


Since we were fresh out of nail polish remover the only thing to do was to put her into the shower until Tyler could get back from the store with a new bottle. This was the only way to keep her from getting nail polish all over the rest of the house.



This is the carpet before I cut out each piece of nail polish one piece of carpet at a time. Now you can't even tell. From now on it does not matter if I am about to paint another toe, the nail polish remains out of McCall's reach.


My favorite thing that she ever has done was a couple of months ago. I was taking a shower and she had to get in with me. She was climbing in with her clothes on. So I helped her get in but I was not planning on her doing so. I did not have a towel ready for her. I had been yelling a couple of times for Tyler to please bring a towel. McCall must have understood my frustration when not shy of a minute later she flung the shower curtain doo open and yelled Tyler's name, except it sounded more like "Tywler" The towel came real quick after that.

Tagged

Ok so first thing first. McCall was tagged about a month ago, maybe even longer. I have just been a slacker with blogging lately. It seem like I never have time anymore. School keeps me so busy. Hopefully things with slow down this next week. I have finals this week and then I have a little break. It is never long enough but it will do for now.
McCall was tagged by her mom's friends little girl Kadee Harris. So here are 5 things you may not know about McCall. I will do my best. It always seems like I could go on and on when no one really cares but when asked I feel like I have to think really hard.

1. McCall really loves dogs. Every day when she wakes up one of the firts things that she does will be to walk to the kitchen to see the dogs. She will say doggie like 10 times as if no one can hear her.













2. She climbs every thing and any thing. She loves to climb out the doggie door and she really likes to climb out of her crib. She will climb any set of stairs she sees. She takes a couple of years off my life when she climbs things. It is not good knowing what can happen to your sweet child if she where to get a head injury.

3. McCall loves to dance. When if the music comes on she has to dance. One time when Hannah Montana came on she climbed on the coffee table and started dancing. She also really likes the song by Craig Morgan, International Harvester. She goes crazy. It is the funniest thing to watch.

4. She is really big for her age. She weights 32.5 lbs and is almost 34 inches tall. She is almost half my height. She is only 17 months old and the docter said that even if he put her on the chart at a 2 year old she would still be in the 90th percentile for her weight and off the charts for her height. He said that she needed to go on a diet and that I need to feed her every two hours. I don't feed her crap she just keeps on growing. I buy clothes alot. She has lost one pound in the last month and hopefully will lose another before her 18 month check up. Wish us luck. Any good children diet plans I am open to ideas.

5. She is quite the mimmiker. Any thing that I do she has to do. She also has to do it by her self. She loves anything electronic. If Tyler and I use it she has to use it too. She loves to talk on our phones and can even hold them up with one shoulder. I can't imaging how she learned this. While driving down the road one day I found McCall like this. I just had to take a picture. She is so funny.

Ok so the last post was meant to include a little video of McCall going out the doggie door and getting into the doggie house. However, I am having a little trouble getting the footage to load. I am not sure if I am doing something wrong or does it just take a long to load. Help anyone. In the mean time here are some pics of her having fun around the house.


Yes, This is McCall climbing out of her crib. She is getting to good at it. I cant trap her in her room any more

First Official Post of First offical Home

We moved into this condo last year in July and it has really needed some work. Over the last month things have finally been coming together. So here are some before and after shots. We redid the cabinets, carpet, kitchen floor has marble, we painted and put new window treatments up. We now just have a few finishing touches and the backyard needs some work but then we will be ready to sell and walk away with our profit.


After:



































Before:




















It Looks like I posted the after before for. I am sure that anyone could figure that out. I don't know any one who would put pink carpet in their kitchen or bathroom let alone anywhere in there house.
