Balloon Fashion

Megan's cute cousin started putting those tiny little hair bands all over her little Disney dolls. I should have thought to take a picture of them because it's such a funny look. It looks like the dolls have leg warmers and weird ropes all over their heads. Megan took her idea and did the same thing for a while until she found a bag of water balloons. Here is the new creation both girls think is so cool. Four year olds have such great fashion sense don't they?

We found these dresses for only $2.50 at Old Navy the other week. I bought two so the girls could be twins at school. They had so much fun dressing the same and had a GREAT day together. Megan was mad in this picture for who knows what reason. Fortuntately that was our only tantrum of the day and they have both been perfect otherwise.

Luke spilled mustard all over my carpet. I saw it happening and just couldn't stop it. Sigh. I don't think it's coming out. Does anyone have a magic solution?

Carpet

1. Scrape off excess mustard.

2. Mix one tablespoon of liquid hand dishwashing detergent with two cups of warm water.

3. Using a clean white cloth, sponge the stain with the detergent solution.

4. Blot until the liquid is absorbed.

5. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 until the stain disappears.

6. If the stain remains, mix one tablespoon of ammonia (Caution: Never mix chlorine bleach and ammonia - the resulting fumes are hazardous) with two cups of warm water.

7. Sponge the stain with the ammonia solution.

8. Blot until the liquid is absorbed.

9. Sponge with cold water and blot dry to remove the ammonia solution.

You could also try a solution of OxyClean and water. It has worked for many carpet stains.

Just a suggest for Megan, Karate. It will teach her self discipline, how to control her emotions, and as a side bonus self defense. You can have kids start learning Karate at the age of 2, so she is old enough.
