I stuck to my meal plan for most of the week. I only have pictures through Wednesday.
Maddy is starting to get a little hard to feed. She's not a picky eater by any means...her problem is not wanting to take time out to actually eat. She did ok with the beef and mashed potatoes. She ate a little chicken and then said she was done. The best she did was on Wednesday. Bless her heart...she has to eat her dinner in the car on the way to church. I had some lunchable's on hand and it worked out perfect. She loved her ham and cheese crackers.
I may have mentioned this before but we have a kitten that has decided to take up residence at our house. It showed up out of no where but has a collar with a bell on it. Every time we open our door it just looks at us and you can tell it's saying, "Oh just let me in...you know you want to...ain't I purdy?" with it's eyes. I have to just ignore it because one day I did make eye contact and oh my goodness lol. I'm not even a cat person. I'm getting a little frustrated because it digs in my roses on our front porch.
The above video was taken last weekend at my mom's house. She decided to call the flower bed a garden all on her own. She started off saying, "Sprinkle, sprinkle, sprinkle, sprinkle." She's a mess :)
I tried french braiding hair that same weekend and didn't quite get the hang of it. My mom braided all three grandkids' hair and I let Maddy sleep in hers. When she woke up on Sunday this is what it looked like:
She has such beautiful hair!
We had our first boo boo at our new house on Friday. I'm not really sure just what happened. I was in the process of getting the right key to unlock our door. Maddy was standing on our step and next thing I know she's going down. I imagine she just lost her balance, but she scraped her arm on the corner of the step and it left a pretty good mark.
She jumped up and first thing she said was, "BUT I DON'T WANT BAND AIND." I think she was holding back her tears until she could get that out because she had to take a minute before she could talk and as soon as she got those words out she cried. I felt so bad for her. She made me nervous how she was holding it because she acted like it was a more serious injury than a scrape...luckily it wasn't.
That is my random wrap up. Now here comes our exciting weekend. For the first time since we've moved we had a slumber party at Nana's house on Sunday night...including Manny. Maddy got to play for a little bit when we first got there because I had to use my chicken before it ruined. I made white chicken chili in the crock pot. Maddy is an orange fanatic...good thing she is a Vols fan lol. I think she ate at least 5 clementine's in a row Sunday night. She had to have a big bowl. She watched Bob and had her oranges.
We both had a bit of a rough time going to sleep. She didn't fall asleep until approximately 10:45 p.m. I fell asleep somewhere around 11:15, but woke back up at 3 a.m. and could not go back to sleep...it was a bit frustrating. I finally got back to sleep and next thing I know Maddy is waking me up asking me if it's time to go to the mountains. We had plans of going to Cades Cove today to try to find a bear. I'm so very excited to say that we were successful in this mission...thank you Lord!
