Feeling more domestic!!

Not sure why or what is different but in the last week I have been making and baking more then ever. Weird, I know. Cookies, muffins, breads, cup cakes and so on. Go figure. So my next task is to make home made apple sauce with my mom and Emily. We shall she how this goes. I reallllly wanted to try and make Lucy's food this time around but it just seems like so much work and maybe even cost more. Wish me luck with the apple sauce!!

A busy day of cuteness!!!

Sophie and I were busy today getting some crafts and things done for the house. I am not sure what has gotten in to me lately. I do NOT craft. Hormones? I traded in some points I had to get Sophie some new bedding. She calls it her grown up girl bedding. So to do some design on a dime I got a canvas like I did for the bathroom, used some things we had and repainted some things. This is a work in progress but here is what we did today. I still need to finish the hair bow holder and tomorrow her dad is painting her desk brown and I am hunting for a yellow chair cover. Then I will tie a big bow to come out the back. I need an idea of how to cover that light on her wall. She really wants to keep it but it is so ugly. Anyone?

This is Lulu's side. Still need a wood frame around the blessing dress. Someday I will put it in a shadow box. And I need to paint the diaper basket.

Best $3.48 I have ever spent!!

This kept them going for hours today. It's the coolest chalk and it comes with the glasses. Even I had fun!!

Today's project...the kids bathroom!!!

I literally woke up today and decided I was going to do the kids bathroom. So my brain got going a little and I did this. It will be going a little higher on the wall, I just wanted to test it out and the kids were asleep. No hammering. I also got a new brown shower curtain that I could not get in the pic. What do you think?
And yes, I made it. Shocking, I know!!

The things I can teach you from Kindergarten!

Duh, Mom!

Henry~Oh NOOOO, Mom. We forgot to go ride a horse today.
Me~ Were we suppose to ride a horse today?
Henry~YES!
Me~Hmmm, ok I didn't know that. Maybe another time.
Henry~Well if you bought me a cowboy costume I would need to ride a horse. Don't you know that?
Me~I didn't know that.
Henry~Why I gotta tell you these things.

Running Mom!!

I am not a runner anymore. I am a running mom. I have to jump off the treadmill or stop the stroller for binkies, bottles, break up fight and so on...
It's exhausting. Why am I not skinny just from all that. In all of it I think I got a stress fracture in my foot from my run last night. I blame it all on the kids. With how many times I jumped off the treadmill It had to be their fault, right?
So why am I doing this? It is just one more thing to ad to my list. I am shamefully slow and feel like I am dead after. I just keep telling myself, even if I don't get skinny, I have a healthy heart and it's good for my kids to see. Right?
I.WILL.KEEP.GOING.
