Tea cup party, laundry and trusting in God....

I love good finds on Craig's list. For the past few months, I've been thinking about getting Bailey a small table and chair set for her new "big girl" room. I found a cute little set for $20 on Craig's list this past weekend. Originally I had planned to paint it white with pastel colors but, I think I may leave it the current blue color. Whatever the color, Bailey loves it. She sits in there and plays with her "friends" (stuffed animals, baby doll, etc). It's really cute. On this day, her bear was a "baby" and too small to sit in the chair, she said, so she had to keep him close in the stroller (she even went so far as to pull him up closer to her). How cute is that ?! :)




On this particular day, I was also doing laundry which Bailey loves to help with. Typically I have her laundry basket in the living room and I'll put her clean clothes in there and she'll take the basket back to her room (where I will put the clothes away). This day I only had a few items of Bailey's to wash, so the laundry basket was not out. Bailey still wanted to help so she grabbed her socks and panties and headed back into her room. I heard her giggling and went back to take a peak...she could not open her dresser so she was throwing her items up on top of the dresser. I guess she figured that was still putting them away :) Too cute!






Update on Tom (for those of you we have not spoken to): the insurance did not approve the surgery based on pre-existing criteria. They will cover the surgery, but not until March or April. In the meantime we are going to try (one or several) epidurals to help mediate the pain so that he is able to work (at least PT). We are also asking God to touch his body. Wouldn't it be great if Tom ended up not needing surgery? We think so! Thank you all for your continued prayers and support. We love you all...
