Friday after Kiela came home from school we went to our local farmers market for some pumpkins to carve. Of course I had to snap a few photos-you can see how happy Kiela was about that in one of the photos! I can't believe that she didn't know that I was going to take photos, duh!!!

A devoted follower of fashion=MiKiela. Yes, this totally explains this girl. She is always getting in trouble for making her closet/room a complete mess-pulling out clothes to make her "outfits".

LaVaughn laughs, he thinks it is so funny-he says I got what I wanted. And she is just like me. Kiela is also a BIG HUGE HUGE fan of Cece & Rocky on the Disney channel. She tries to pick up on some of the things that they wear on the show, and she is always begging to go to Target to buy their line-argh. The first few photos is Kiela {and Lulu} after she came home from school yesterday...

Those are totally fabulous!! I love your hardwood floor. Do you find it scratches easily with your dogs claws? My hubby and I are considering a hardwood floor, but not sure how it would take a very active dog lol How'd your kitchen come out? :)

***Hey, Heaven...Lulu needs her nails cut right now. It's so funny to see her sliding  on the hardwood trying to find her footing  when she wants to play fetch. But no scratches on the floor from her claws. We bought a Shark steamer this week-but I like to use Bona to bring out a shine. The steamer will helpto quickly clean up Kiela's DAILY grape juice spills. The kitchen is still a work in progress-little touch up's need to be done. But it looks so much better with the white cabinets & new backsplash. I take some new photos soon.
