Fun on Friday

We made Christmas cards today. The Christmas Trees are made from baby Alien's footprints, the string of Christmas lights are Monster's thumb prints. Monster had a blast and thought it was awesome after it was finished and she figured out what she made. Sneaky Momma didn't tell her what she was making. Good thing she enjoys having her thumb painted various colors. Alien wasn't a fan. I'm actually surprised I was able to get his squirmy little feet placed on the paper in a way that could even be turned into a tree. Babies. Go figure. Don't they know how much funny getting messy is?! Anyhow, I don't think they turned out so bad and I think those who are to receive them will agree.

Thankful Thursday no.1: Alien

I am going to try and dedicate Thursdays to stopping and thinking about the things I am thankful for. One week ago today was Thanksgiving and I spent a lot of time thinking about the many blessings in my life. It is important to me that I don't forget about those things now that the holiday has come and gone. And so I present to you, Thankful Thursday no. 1. This week I am thankful for Alien. He completed our little family this past April. His arrival has been the highlight of this past year. He is the happiest little baby, a complete joy to be around and his smile makes me melt. I love my little Alien.

New Kid On The Block

Welcome to my blog. I can’t say for sure what this will all become but I plan for it to be somewhere I can post about my life, recipes I try, good deals I find, and products I love/lust after.
