Dressing Up!

Sunshine and her cousin T really enjoy playing together. Sunshine spent sometime at T's house recently, and they dressed up as princesses. Here are a few pictures from their time together. Enjoy!

Growing Roses (I hope)...

Last Friday, Sunshine and I took a trip to The Antique Rose Emporium. I must say this is one of my favorite places to go! It is beautiful and inspiring. We attended a class on rooting roses. Sunshine was quite through the most of the seminar- except for when she saw the puppy that someone had brought in and then she started barking :)! I guess barking is better than other sounds a young child could make. So back to the class, we all got to bring home three cuttings to try to root. The fun thing is, they didn't tell us what three roses were in our bag. I am hoping for at least one of them to work. Here is my little bag in my window sill. The picture is bad, but you get the idea.

After about 28 days, I should have rooted roses or dead stems. The hard part is being patient. I really want to open the bag and pull one of the cuttings up a little bit to see if any roots are forming. But, they warned us NOT to do this. So I'll just have to wait 3 more weeks.

The weather was great, so we enjoyed a picnic lunch in the gardens! Sunshine is a vetern rose shopper. The rose emporium was her very first day trip (3 weeks old) and we have been back several times!

You never know what you might find...

Yesterday was cleaning and laundry day at our house. I decided to give Sunshine a little more freedom while I cleaned. So instead of putting her in her crib with toys, I let her play in the living room. I even closed the bathroom door while I was scrubbing the floor so that she wouldn't come in and get her socks wet. There is nothing dangerous for her to get into, but I still wondered what I might find when I came out of the bathroom. Thankfully, she was just playing with her toys. She loves to help with laundry. She makes her own little piles while we are folding it...it's so cute! Last night I was finishing up the last load and I realized she was not in the room any more and it was REALLY quite. Oh boy, what could she be doing?!? Well when I found her she was trying on daddy's jeans. Here are a few pictures.
