Alaina got new glasses! I think they are adorable on her (can I say that about a 10 year old). They do make her look so different and older in a way. We briefly talked about contacts, but she said, "No way!" Fine by me (:

She is also busy thinking of ways to make money. I swear she will be an entrepreneur someday. Her latest.....she made this book of nail designs. She had me choose which design I wanted and then painted my nails for $.25. It was hard to choose because some of the designs were pretty outrageous! Plus, it wouldn't look very professional at work. So, I chose the least crazy of the bunch and here is a pictures of them. I felt like I had to explain to everyone at work the next day that my beautiful daughter painted them for me (: They have all peeled off and she is awaiting my next choice.....

Her other current project she is working on is making toilet paper sheets for toddlers learning to pee. I think between her cousins and brother she is immersed in all things potty lately. Anyway, she colored sheets of toilet paper with markers and then wets it down so it looks like water colors. They turn out quite beautiful and I am proud of the art part of it. Not sure she will be able to sell squares of toilet paper, however. She currently has an entire bag full of them. I think I am going to talk her into making a collage of them all and hang it on her wall-they really are beautiful!
She also has a new best friend that likes to take up a big portion of her bed (: Dex is sure a BIG baby-and we all love it!

Hope everyone had a great weekend. We were thrilled today as it was in the 50's!! Spring is finally on it's way-I couldn't stop smiling today!
