Hair Cut

We had a very big day on Saturday March 28th. Rhea got her very first hair cut at Mane Street Hair Co in Waverly. Thank you Stacy for doing it!

Rhea did better than both Carl and I thought she would do. She sat in the chair all by herself like a big girl and sat very still. She was very excited to tell everyone she had her hair cut!

Rhea's Park

I had an ad in the Swap Sheet last fall to try to get Rhea a swing set for the back yard. She loves to slide and swing. She can do it for hours. Well I did not get a single call so I tried again this spring and I received two phone calls. This worked out great. There was a couple moving into a house in Cedar Falls and they did not want the swing set that was in the back yard. So after taking a look at it we knew we wanted it.

Rhea now wakes up everyday and from naps and has to look out her window at "Her Park". She calls it "My Park" so much that Carl and I even refer to it as Rhea's park. Probably one of the best purchases I have made yet!!!

Wow time flies when you are way busy!

OK I know it has been too long since my last post. I hope I have not lost any readers. The Kitchen floor like I said in the last post turned out wonderful. Carl really did a great job! We were having an appraisal done on the house so we did some very quick updates to see if we could help it along. That is done now so we can move on to the other projects we want to get done.

After that we have had a couple things going on like a fun game night with some friends, a small Superbowl party and we bought some new furniture. I was not sure if I really liked this new furniture because it is a sectional and it is very big. It is growing on me and it is really comfortable. It is a keeper.

Kitchen floor

Today's post was going to be all about how great Carl did at putting in my new kitchen floor. I only have about five minutes to type because daycare called and Rhea has pink eye. So I am spending every second following her around with Lysol and spaying down everything she touches. I only found this few minutes because I have her just sitting down to eat a snack. I will post pictures of the new floor very soon. Thanks Carl it looks great.

Snow Fun

We seem to have a lot of snow this year so I decided it was time to get Rhea some snow pants. We got a great deal at Goodwill. Then when we got home Rhea, Daddy and myself all went outside to do some sledding.
Rhea did not like the sledding as much as we remembered from last year so we decided to take a walk down to Grandma and Papa's. She was not excited to walk in the snow until Carl showed her to do it like a monster and say "Roar" with each step.
We realized one thing on our walk. Rhea will probably follow in the Buchanan family footsteps and play hockey some day. When ever we were on snow she would walk very slow and take baby steps BUT the minute she was on ice she was off and running. Daddy and I would both ask her to slow down but she kept right on moving.

Here are a few pics from out venture...
