cardmaking

I had some fun making cards last night.  Usually "fun" and "cards" don't end up in the same sentence.  Cards are a constant source of frustration for me - they never turn out just right.  This time, however, I used one of Basic Grey's card kits.  I would totally do this again.  I found the Nook & Pantry card kit at Big Lots for $5!!  Needless to say, I was thrilled!  I came home and promptly made all 8 cards.  Here's how they turned out:






Thanks for stopping by!

enjoying bits of randomness

Here is what we've been up to lately:
Caleb is loving his new Toy Story flashlight that he got for Christmas.  Unfortunately, C has a history of breaking flashlights, and this one was no exception.  Thankfully, Daddy fixed it:)


C has a lunchbox full of "treasures" that he wants to take with him everywhere.  They include:  Lightning McQueen, play food, a Lego Hero character, and a Buzz Lightyear car.


We are counting down the days until Micah's first birthday.  I can't believe my baby will be one!  We managed to make it through baby's first year unscathed!


M's favorite thing to do right now is eat his socks.  I know I'm not supposed to let him, but it's so cute!


The other day, Micah somehow crawled into the toy basket and got stuck!  I thought it was hilarious, so I snapped a picture.


As I type this, I'm battling with C over when he can come out of his room from his afternoon playtime.  He keeps setting his clock ahead and telling me it's time to come out.  Hmmm...
Well, I only have 15 precious minutes left of alone time.  Time to go enjoy the rest of it!
