Help.
I need for you to know that I LOVE my child and I love my dog. However, for the last hour I have listened to non-stop screaming and barking. Beemer barks because that's what she does... unfortunately. I'm thinking about investing in a top-o-the-line bark collar because nothing seems to work. Either that or a pet psychic! Ella is screaming for a number of reasons. Reason #1 - she hates to "potty". Don't read CAN'T potty, read HATES to potty. I've decided that she doesn't like it. She will go as long as she possibly can in between potty visits. AAAGGGHHH. To the best of my recollection it has been 3 days. She cries and complains, we sit on the potty, we stand up.

Here is a sneak peek of the "after" shots. I still have a shelf and some art to hang, so I'll wait and share the whole room later in the week. It took three coats of semi-gloss paint in White Chocolate, but the desk and dresser look beautiful. They are both already packed full of art and scrapbooking supplies, stationery and paper scraps. I might should have bought two dressers! ...
New Treasures
Okay, here are the before shots of the furniture I bought last weekend. Josh took me to pick it up this morning and I'm hoping to get it painted and put in the room sometime tonight. It is a small desk and large dresser that I plan on using in the studio. Come back tomorrow for the after shots! ...
My favorite
This is what we do. Every day. Sometimes more than once. We watch the Jungle Book. Predominantly the elephants. Ella makes the elephant sound and sings the song. Precious. I attempted to watch 101 Dalmatians on Saturday, she yelled. We ONLY watch the Jungle Book. ...
