Goodies from LRS...

Okay so I know I still need to get caught up with the posts I have saved as drafts on this blog, there are lots of pictures I still need to edit and add to the posts, I will get to that this weekend, I promise :) Anyways, this is pretty much a drive by posting to share a few layouts with you that I did using the Jan LRS kit. Make sure you go check out what the other DT girls did with it! I love those girls and they do awesome work! I am lucky to be on the team with them. Anyways here you go :)

Here is some of the kit...

The brand New American Crafts Teen line. I love the bright colors. There are still a couple kits left so if you like what you see, go check it out. Make sure to check LRS on the first of Feb for the new Feb kit, you will NOT want to miss it, It's a CHA Winter new Release WOOT, and will sell out FAST!

Thanks for looking :)

Snack time...

My daughter LOVES Cheetos, Britney Spears would be so proud! :) It is one of her favorite snacks to eat. I took a few pictures of her today during snack time :) I can not believe how long her hair is now, it's gorgeous!

I love her goofy faces she makes sometimes :)

My morning with Bella...

When the boys are in school it is mine and Bella's time together, we get 6 hours of "us" time :) I usually spend 3 of those hours cleaning up the house while she either helps me (pushing the broom or mop around on the kitchen tile or the carpet lol) or watches her morning shows (Backyardigans, Spongebob, Dora the Explorer, Yo gabba gabba, Ni hao ki lan, Wow wow wubbzy, etc). Usually when WOW WOW Wubbzy or The Backyardigans are on we dance and sing. She loves to dance! Here are some pictures of her from this morning, She has her blankie and morning bottle (yeah I know she could do without this now, we are trying lol)

Silly girl....

We woke up early this morning because my mom was coming over for her weekly visit. I put Bella in the bath, not only does she LOVE taking them (and showers, she will probably be another water baby lol, Aidan learned to swim when he was 2 1/2), but she tries to get us to give her a bath or shower a couple times a day. She loves the bubbles as you can see in these pictures. She also really loves laying on her tummy and kicking her feet behind her, almost starting to doggy paddle now. She takes her play cups, Disney Princesses, my lil ponies and little pet shop animals in there with her. Dustin and I still can't believe it when we see them all around the bathroom that use to be filled with Hot wheels, GI joes, Star Wars action figures and legos (these are now all in the boys bathroom lol). Here are the pictures.

That last one reminds me of my sister Loni, that is Bella being goofy and I remember my sister use to make a face just like it, I am sure my mom has a picture of it, it's so funny how sometimes Aidan or Bella remind me of Loni, I am almost 5 years older then my sister so my memory of her when she was little is pretty good. (I miss you sister ;) You need to come visit soon!).

A little late :) ... Happy New Year

Okay I know that it is a little late but I had to post it :) I have been so super busy the last month with the Holiday's and school with the kiddos and family things that my poor blog was neglected (Sorry mom, I know you want those pictures posted already) I now have a little time on my hands and plan to get caught up with the photos of the kids for family to see, and my last few months of work for my friends to see.

It is 10:50pm and I am the only one awake right now, two of the kids are sick right now and D came home with the flu today, he will probably be home tomorrow. So I am going to get to bed right now, but plan to spend sometime working on photos tomorrow and updating my blog more. :)

Again HAppy New Year :) Here's hoping this one is awesome!

Gifts from Aunt Patty and Grams :)

We had a knock at the door tonight and saw the mailman had left a huge box for us. When I looked at the label it said it was from my Grams (my dad's mom) and Aunt patty (Dad's sister). I, with the kiddos help, opened the box and pulled out three wrapped gifts for the kids and two baskets, one for me and one for D. I made sure the kids waited for me to get my camera so I could snap some pictures of them opening the gifts up. Here is what I got...

The boys LOVED their new blankets! So much so they plan to sleep with them tonight. Bella also really liked hers, she loves pooh stuff and her other two blankies have pooh stuff on them. Dustin got an awesome snack basket which he dug right into and I got such a beautiful girlie 'stuff" basket with all the good stuff inside (lotion, and bath stuff, LOVE IT!). That was so sweet of my Grams and aunt Patty to do! Thank you so much! We love and miss you guys and hope to see you soon!
