Updates!!!

So labor day weekend was my second attempt at selling my jewelry, and while I didn't do as well as I thought I would I still did about three times better than I did last year. Needless to say I'm encouraged enough to try again. I also learned alot from Lindsee(one of the girls I did the booth with.). We also "rented" our booth to a lady that wanted to sell her hair flowers, and to be honest she was annoying and lazy. All we charged her was a third of the booth money, but we should have charged for labor too. Saturday she dropped off her stuff left and then came back when it was time to close for the night. Lindsee had to keep track of her money and we both had to help the costumers. Of course she didn't leave any bags for us to use so we had to use our own(only when people asked, we didn't want any negative feelings from customers). And when she was there she had Lindsee set aside about a hundred dollars worth of her jewelery because she couldn't decide on a necklace, I only had to set aside about five dollars worth. She didn't help her costumers, all she would do is talked to Lindsee. She turn her chair so that her back was to me and Lindsee couldn't get around her, so for a little while I was taking money for both of them. Lindsee felt bad and told me that if I wanted to walk around and check stuff out she would watch my stuff for me. The other girl(I can't remember her name) left around five to "feed her family" and then showed up again when it was time to take everything down, about nine(apparently it takes a long time to feed the family a pizza that she called a half hour ahead on.) Other than that it went pretty good I made a bit of profit, and learned what I need to improve on. I'm encouraged enough to want to do one around Christmas.

Now for a Sarah update...Sarah just had her four month appointment the other day. She is five months now but her doctor was on holiday and the I forgot about it and had to set up another one. Any way she is 18lbs. and 26in. long. Her doctor said that she is the size of about an 8month old. He was also surprised to see that she has her first two teeth. So she is a big healthy giant who is all smiles and drool. She will also only laugh for Avah. I have tried being as silly as Avah to get Sarah to laugh but I guess I just can't do it right. I have a video of it on my phone and if I can get Andy to help me I'll post it so you can see how funny and adorable it is.

Now for an Avah update...Avah hasn't had a doctors appointment recently(not for the lack of trying, she was so upset when she found out the doctor was going to look at Sarah and not her.) but she is growing like a weed! Her talking improves everyday. she can now tell me what she wants as long as she isn't upset, which makes things easier. Most of the time she is an awesome big sister. she loves dogs right now, probably because she has seen alot lately. I love how polite she is most of the time. She is turning into such a cute kid.
