I got 99 problems. :/

Something is very wrong with my blog. :( It isn't letting me log onto blogger at all, its just like a blank page with (im guessing) a lot of html codes? It hasn't worked for like 4 days. Not sure whats going on. Its been acting really weird lately, saying I'm only following just a few blogs and that I only have a few followers. Doesn't let me click on links when people comment my blog, doesn't show their pictures either. Now, Its not working at all.. I'm bummed. :/

I'm on my phone right now and not even sure if this is going to work... lol.
But.. I'm working on it.

Crossing my fingers and hoping it works tomorrow.

What I'm Loving: January

WHAT I'M LOVING♥

January 2012

TV

Once Upon a Time
Seriously, if you haven't seen this show, you need to!

Greys Anatomy
I've been a Greys fan since my college days. The girls in my dorm got my hooked, I loved it and I'll keep watching it til its over. I absolutely love that Mer&Der are finally happy! :)

American Idol
I just love this show, I loved it with Simon, Paula, Randy, Ellen, Etc. & I love it now. I LOVE the auditions though, I like seeing the funny ones and figuring out who I like early on. Last year the second Scotty Mcreery opened his mouth, I knew he was going to be my favorite. :)

Boy Meets World

This was my favorite show growing up, I was flipping through the channels last week and seen they was showing season 1 on MTV2! They play it every day, I've shamelessly been watching them. ;) They're on season 2 now, I still love this show.

-----------------------------------------------------

MOVIES

Crazy Stupid Love

I know, Its crazy I hadn't seen this movie yet, but Eric and I watched it a few weeks ago and we both LOVED it. Such a cute movie! :)

Beauty and the Beast 3D

Being the Disney freak that I am, of course I took Kaylee to see this. :) It was my favorite growing up. I love seeing Kaylee enjoy the same things I used too. Besides, Disney movies are timeless. :)

-----------------------------------------------------

FOOD

Wheat Thins

I freakin love wheat thins, they're my go to snack. Yum! :)

 

White Chicken Enchiladas via pinterest
We made this a week or so ago, and man is it yummy!! Kudos to whoever came up with this recipe! Yumm!

-----------------------------------------------------

PRODUCTS:

Aussie 3 minute miracle deep conditioner
This stuff makes my hair so soft and shiny! Smells good too, I love it. 

Chocomaker

I love it. Its deap so it makes dipping things like cake pops, fruit, etc. much easier.

-----------------------------------------------------

BOOKS:

The Hunger Games Series

I absolutely LOVE these books. I finished the series at the begining of this month and they were just amazing. Very easy fast reads too, I could not put them down. The movie comes out in March and I am so excited for it!!!

-----------------------------------------------------

SONGS:

Safe and Sound: Taylor Swift & The Civil Wars
(Although I love Taylor Swift, this  song is totally different than ANYTHING I've ever heard her sing. It is so good. Its going to be on the Hunger Games movie.)

Crazy Girl: Eli Young Band

The one that got away: Katy Perry

Someone like you: Adele

Dancing away with my Heart: Lady Antebellum

-----------------------------------------------------

APPS:

Wheres my Droid?

Seriously!! This is the best app! I use it way more than I probably should. I have a major problem with loosing my phone. I carry it around and then leave it laying everywhere. This app, FINDS IT! :) Even if your phone is on vibrate or silent, all you have to do is text your special code to your phone.. and BAM, it turns the volume all the way up and rings for two minutes. I have a Mytouch4G, but I'm sure there is some sort of version for iphone users. But if you're an android user, Download it, you wont regret it!

-----------------------------------------------------

KID STUFF:

Leapfrog Leappad

THE best toy we bought Kaylee for Christmas, hands down! It is so cool. It could keep her entertained for hours if I let her, lol. & She has already learned SO much on it.

Vtech Care & Learn Teddy Bear
Peyton got this for Christmas and its seriously such a cute toy. She love its, shes actually learning what to do with the stethoscope too, which I think is adorable! 

Fresh Beat Band: Wizard of Song
Did anyone elses kids watch this? My daughter being a Fresh Beat fanatic, we watched it the day it premiered of course, lol. I love the Wizard of Oz, and I knew she would be WAY to scared to watch it so its nice that she can still enjoy it in her own way. I thought it was adorable!  Shes watched it every day since.  Peyton even liked it, she sat through almost the whole thing! lol. Marina is Kaylee's favorite so she loved that she was the 'star' of this episode.

Apple & Eve: Fruitables
Kaylee and Peyton both love these. They taste just like fruit juice but have 1 full serving of fruits and veggies in them. Its 2.99 for the 8 pack of juice boxes. Both times I've bought them I had a 1$ off coupon. Apparently they've came out with a jug of it now, but I have seen that yet.

-----------------------------------------------------

OTHERS:

Netflix
I know, I know.. I'm way late. But we just got the instant play version, and I looove it.

ipiccy.com

If you are like me and bummed that Picnik is closing, I've heard this is the closest photo editing to picnik. Apparently they are asking picnik users what they would like to have on it, they just added lots of face touch ups and will be adding more effects soon. They layout is even really close to picniks too. I'll be using Picnik til April 19th, but after that looks like ill be going here. :)

-----------------------------------------------------

Obviously every month wont be this LARGE, lol. I apparently am loving a LOT of stuff this month. :)

Our week in cell phone pictures. :)

Our internet has been going in and out for a week, we finally got it working though and I'm back!! :) Figured I'd do a quick post. :) Heres some cell phone pics I took over the last week. 

The Hunt for the blue haired Lalaloopsy!

Kaylee has had a giftcard since Christmas. All she wanted was the blue haired lalaloopsy "Mittens fluff & stuff'. After looking for a month, we didn't find her, but... we did find her little sister. She is so happy! Now I have lots of time to find the other one before her birthday. I better find it by June 2nd. lol.

Peytons very first 'real' piggy tails! :)
I can finally get it all the way up. LOVE.

Picture Day!
Kaylee had picture day at Gymnastics yesterday.  She got individual and team pics made, I cant wait to get them back. :) Last year they were super cute, hope they turn out good this year too. 

I was a good wife and made Eric his favorite.. Chocolate covered strawberries. Yum! I got to use my new candy melter I got for Christmas. Making Cakepops will be much easier now. :)

& This one wasnt from my phone, I just thought it was the cutest! They we're sitting here watching the Bubble Guppies after their baths. SO SWEET. :)

I'm working on my 'What I'm loving January' post. :) Hopefully I'll have it up tomorrow. Its a new thing I'm starting where at the end of every month I will list things that I'm loving for the month. Movies, Books, Apps, Recipes, Products, Kid things, etc.  I'm excited about it.

Hope everyone had a great weekend! I missed you guys! I have to go catch up on all my favorite Blogs! :)

Crazy Kentucky Weather

Seriously? We've had the weirdest weather this past week. Last weekend, It was snowing & FREEEZING cold. Took the girls out to play, they were so excited! Sunday it was 55 degrees and it all melted, then the next day it was 64 degrees and we had friggin TORNADO warnings. In January!! Yeah, I was shocked. lol. At least Kaylee got to play in the snow, every time it even flurries she gets so excited and wants to go out and play in it. lol. It still wasnt a lot, but it was enough to make her happy. Peyton was NOT a fan. lol. We all went outside, Peyton and I stayed out there for maybe 2 minutes and came inside while Eric and Kaylee played. She hated it. I mostly think she just hated her snowsuit, lol. She looked like a mini eskimo... 'I can't put my arms down!' lol.

my girls. :)

so excited.

look at that face, she hated it. lol.

making a snow angel.

Did anyone else hear the news about Picnik? I'm so bummed they're shutting down. :( Now, I need to find a good photo editing software/website before April 19th. :/

Oh and I've finally decided to start using my Twitter. Hardly anyone I know uses theirs, but I REALLY like it. So, follow me! I would love to have all of my blog friends on there as well, so send me your links. :)

EDIT: Looks like more tornado warnings in the forecast for night. :( This winter is really starting to stink.

What we've been up to. :)

Had a great weekend. So sorry I haven't been blogging much lately, I have been completely sucked into this book series.. 'The Hunger Games'. Thank you so much to everyone who recommended it. I read the whole series in a little over 4 days, I honestly couldn't put them down & stayed up way too late every night reading them. lol. Wow, such amazing books. I am so excited for the movie now. If you haven't read it yet, I definitely recommend it.

Saturday we dropped Peyton off at my moms for a few hours and took Kaylee to see Beauty and the Beast 3D. This was her very first time going to the movies and she did great! She absolutely loved it. I thought it was so neat when my mom said Beauty and the Beast was the first movie I ever seen in theaters too. Pretty nifty. :) The whole time, Kaylee kept saying  'I miss Peyton' lol, Obviously we don't separate them too much. haha. But she had a great time at Grammy's house and Little Mermaid comes out September 2013, she'll be almost 3 then.. I think that will be a perfect first movie date. haha.

Oh and Peyton learned a new trick, HIDING everything!!! lol. I swear shes such a little stinker! She loves the remotes, phones, keys, etc. and she grabs them when no one is looking and hides them places.  So far I've found my phone in my shoes, in her shape sorter ball, and few other places lol. Her go to hiding spot is her little riding toy under the seat. Its so adorable though.When she realizes you're looking for it she just giggles. So cute! I cant believe she turns 15 months old soon. Seriously?! Where has the time gone?? I absolutely love this age though, but I wish I could just slow down time a bit.♥

SO WHAT Wednesday!

Happy Wednesday everyone! :) Today I'm linking up with Shannon from 'Life after I Dew' for So what Wednesday. Its 10:30pm. So what if Wednesday is almost over, but better late than never right?

SO WHAT IF...

• I don't know who's more excited to go see Beauty and the Beast 3D this weekend... My 3 year old or ME?? Seriously, You're never too old to love Disney!
• Today a salesman came to my door and I took my girls and hid in the bathroom! lol. I really need a 'No Soliciting' sign. I can never say no, so I always end up standing there for 15 minutes listening to people try to talk me into buying vacuum cleaners, security systems, 20 lbs of meat,  satellite dish, a new roof for my new house, etc. etc. I always end with .. 'Well, You can come back when my husband is home.' & They always do, lol. He just loves that. ;)
• I stayed up til 2:00am last night catching up on my new addiction.. Once Upon a Time. WHY am I just now hearing about this show.. It is UH-MAZING! Only 3 more episodes to go and I'll be all caught up... Like I need another show.
• Kaylee's Gymnastics class started back last Saturday. I forgot how much it sucked to wake up at 7:00am on a Saturday morning & I hit the snooze 3 times & barely made it to class on time. She's been in it since she was 22 months old, you'd think I'd be used to it by now, right?.. Nope. 
• I'm counting down the days til our W2s come in.. lol. I can't wait to get our tax rebate. Redoing our bedroom, and finally putting up a privacy fence. Oh and I'm getting me a Kindle Fire. Yep. Merry Christmas to Mommy & Daddy! ;)
• If Peyton isn't talking as much as most of the other 14 month olds in my October group. Shes my sweet, quite, little cuddlebug and I LOVE it. :)
• I am beyond excited for the movie 'The Vow'. I mean seriously.. Nicholas Sparks movie with Channing Tatum & Rachel McAdams. Pass the tissues! I plan on dragging my husband to the theater the week it comes out. Hey, dont judge! I sit through Transformers and Fast 5 for a reason people. :)

What are you saying SO WHAT to this week?!

GUESS WHO WE'RE GOING TO SEE...

Kaylee's absolute FAVORITE show in the whole world is the Fresh Beat Band. She loves them. So, a few months ago I heard that they were going on tour. I looked up the dates and they weren't coming here. Bummer! :( But apparently they added more dates to their tour and they'll be here March 11 in Louisville. I bought our tickets this morning. We've been to Disney on Ice a few times, but this will be her very first concert. :) I'm excited. Kaylee is seriously going to seriously flip out. lol. I feel awful for not taking Peyton, but she is terrified of loud noises. Plus shes only 14 months old, she probably wouldn't know what was going on anyways. I'll have to think of something special to do for her. 

Trying to come up with a really cute way to surprise her with the tickets? Any ideas?
