Kids Say the Funniest Things

So I have to post how funny my kids are. My 4 year old (A) says to hubby the other day, “Daddy, God puts me in my bed everynight…. hehehe, but I come back in with you! HAHAHAAAAA” Silly girl. She thinks she is getting away with something by coming back in to our bed, lol. She is also into poop. Did I tell you she is the practical joker of the bunch! lol. I love that girl! My other, my 2 year old (H), she has started this new thing, “Awwwww, poor me” hahahaa, she says it all the time, usually with her name in place of ‘me’. But isn’t that the funniest thing, she wants pitty, lolol. Cutie. She loves to dance. Anytime she hears music, her little body starts moving. Almost like she just can’t help it, and she’s been that way since I can remember! One thing is for sure, she loves being the baby. And my oldest, (K) well she’s just a sweetie pie. She is the leader of the pack. Her favorite things are ballet and piano and making up things for the 3 of them to play pretend. Love my cutie pies!

One other thing, I am now a Miche Bag representative. I couldn’t help it, the product is super cool and I don’t have to take much time out of my week to do it. I basically work it in when I am out and about and tell people how I think transforming purses are the coolest thing ever, which they are! I am wanting to do a fund raiser for my church (because we can donate 20 % of sales), but I am not sure how many people would be interested. I actually take a pay cut in order to do the fundraiser, but it would be totally worth it if I could make a difference for my church. I’m not sure how far this will go, but it’s fun so… gonna try it!  Anyway, above is a pic of some fall product.

And last but not least, I have this free kit for everyone!! It goes along with my newest digital scrapbooking items: My Vintage Love, My Vintage Love Stamps, My Vintage Love Frames, and My Vintage Love Free Quickpage! I do hope you enjoy it!

Pink

So, my 1 and a half year old (H) has a favorite color. You guessed it, pink. Yesterday I tried to giver her a pair of pants and she absolutely refused. She started yelling, “pink, pink, pink” and didn’t stop till I pulled out a pair of pink shorts to wear. Lovely, now my littlest one wants to pick her own clothes too! Ha! Other than that, she just basically loves to dance and lights up when the music starts.

On another note, my 3 and a half year old (A) has decided to cut her own hair! Yep, again. As I made her lunch, she gave herself a mullet. I immediately started damage control and cut some layers in, but she definitely needs to go get a hair cut… ugh. She is my fiesty one. Hard on the outside and soft on the inside. She says she likes her hair. That’s my girl.


My 6 year old (K) loves to roller skate and dance around the house in ballet shoes and any pretty skirt or dress she can find. I catch her picking books out and sitting quietly to read. I love that. She really is quite sweet. Right now she is playing her first season of baseball. She loves to do that.

I just started playing softball again after not playing for about 6 years. Once I got my prescription for contacts fixed, I’m suprised at how I just jumped back in and played like before. Only difference is I’m bigger and a bit slower. I am looking forward to losing some weight and feeling athletic in my body as I do in my mind. Monday we played ball. Almost everyone pulled their quads, we were missing a few players and everyone was out of position, but hey, we played with heart and I was proud of everyone for that.

Hubby brought home some flowers for me. He is a sweetie pie.

My mom is going to be here to visit in a week. Haven’t seen her for a while and the kids miss her much, so that will be nice.

Well, that’s about it for now. TTFN!

Have you ever seen a sweeter face. I fall in love with it again & again. Part of the reason why I love nursing, these would be missed moments, I think, lost in the hustle & bustle of life. My little baby is not so little anymore. She will be 2 in June!

Time flutes so fast.. My oldest just turned 6! We had a great birthday bash.

I started playing softball again, after 5 years or so, not playing. Caught myself being afraid of the ball. The number one no no. I have no more shoulder muscles, they’ve dwindled away over the years. Despite all of that, I still found myself enjoying it.

The best part of practice so far was batting practice with my sweet little 3 year old yelling from the dugout, “hit the ball Mom” & cheering me on. I didn’t acknowledge her cheers (not wanting to miss a pitch) but my heart did fly.

Softies

I just wanted to share with everyone some of the things I’ve made as gifts. I haven’t kept up on posting them all,  so here goes…

This little pink one kind of slipped while I was making it (from the super soft material), so I had to make adjustments. It’s suppose to resemble Boo Bear. I made this one recently for my husband’s friend, Dave, had a newborn baby girl.
 

These two are also Boo Bears. They were made for my husband’s friend, Jason, who had twin babies! Yay for twins!!

Here are the cutest little Whimsy Dolls, called Wittle Whimsies…
These were my first attemps. I made them with care bear material. I didn’t really take my time sewing and it shows in the crooked little doggie head. But they are still cuties. These are headed for an orphanage in Mexico, along with the next one below.


I do like the colors of this one a wittle better ;) lol.

Here is a bunny I made.  My daughter wanted a Velveteen Rabbit so I made this with super soft minky and a Christmas fabric, added a puffy tail too.


I am working on some Mae Dolls. I will try to remember to post when they are done ;) My daughters both put in their request and I have some special girls (family) to make gifts for. All these adorable patterns are from Bit of Whimsy Dolls. You can buy the patterns or dollies for yourself  **here**.

On another note, I am finishing up on a digital scrapbooking kit… Vintage kit, loves floral, tattered edges etc. Can’t wait to release it ;)

Valentines Stuff

What have we been up to lately….
We had Valentines Day. Got flowers from Daddy (got them a few days early), and chocolates, not pictured (yummmm). We do things kind sporadically here. There are no rules. Sometimes he will get me a necklace, sometimes just a card, but in our house, we like it that way. No rules, no expectations or hurt feelings. We are simply happy either way…

This year we made cookies for Daddy…
*idea came from here*



Can you tell he likes Spiderman. Once I saw this idea (link above) I just had to make these! Didn’t they turn out awesome. We made them lemony ;)
My little baby H puts her own touch…

From my little A, my 3 year old…

My oldest K decorated these…

I put the eyes on that one for her.

And then they wanted to package them all up for him, so we did…

packages tied up with strings…my favorite things ;)

Steak dinner to top off the day. The End.

Here’s what the roses look like now. They started to wilt, so I cut them down to nothing (so they can drink) and put them in a bubble vase. They perked right up.
