Fun with Sidewalk Chalk

Look closely and tell me what you see. That's right a PINK dog

(Sadley to say I taught this to Zach)

We had to do chalk outlines
And Baby too



Zach is loving sidewalk chalk. Wish I would have brought it out sooner.

A few things I've been up too

I've been trying to get a few "projects" done this month that I've wanted to do for a while. This is just a few pictures of some of the stuff I've done.


I got the idea for this chocolate covered strawberries at a street fair in Oceanside. Putting them in a flower pot came to me because I was doing it for the first day of May (April showers bring May flowers) for the girls I visit teach.

They didn't turn out perfect and a few slid down there sticks while in delivery, but they were still cute. I want to do them again soon, but have learned from my mistakes.


I've been wanting to put up vinyl on the walls for a long time. Well I finally got around to cutting out and putting up two of the things I've been wanting to do. More to come later.




I saw this on I think How Does She.com and did two of them for a friend. You take your old formula cans and wrap them in fabric to make a cute utensil holder.

I also saw this on How Does She. It only has one handle because it is to hang over your headrest in the car. You can use it for toys or a trash bag, etc. (I also made this one for a friend)


I've also been working on 3 other things, but I can't post them yet since 2 of them are for my friends birthday (and I'm making one of the items for me as well)

I've also started working on my daughters 1st birthday. (I know it's not till October, but I want to get a head start)

Otherwise I've been keeping busy just playing with my two cutie pie kids.

Two in the Tub - Scrub a dub dub.

Zach is such a good big brother. He wants to make sure Madison is all clean.


She thinks he's the best
We have to get her head wet

Maybe Shamu will do a better job


It's Nice being able to give both my kids a bath at the same time, but stressful too. I'm so worried about Zach doing something to knock Madison down. (which did happen)

It's Potty Time!

Guess what we will be up to today (and all week) Potty Training.


Last week Zach picked out his underwear: Toy Story and Cars. He also got a potty seat too which is Cars. He's only kind of excited.



Is this how these things go on?

New Potty seat. You press a button and it makes "cars" noise.


He didn't actually want to put ON the underwear (at first)


Cute little behind!


Wish Us Luck!!

7 Months!

Can you believe she's 7 months old already.


She's been really sitting up all by herself now for a while and is much happier. She reaches for Everything and if she doesn't get it she's mad. She wants whatever we are eating, especially her brother's food. She's been teething the last couple of days so hopefully soon she'll have her first tooth. We just have to wait and see.

Happy Easter




We celebrated Easter over 2 days. We did crafts and colored eggs one day and than hunted them and had a nice dinner the next. We had a lot of fun. The Adults even had a scavenger hunt. The best part would have to be finding our inner Redneck.


We did a hand print craft also. These are my kids. I will make them even cuter later with a bow tie and cropping them and putting a cool background paper on. I left them at my parents so I'll have to wait till later to embellish them.

The Decor!

Oh Sweet Potatoes

Madison finally got her taste of Real Food!

She's off of the Oatmeal diet and onto greater things.

She wasn't too sure, so at first she was licking it to see if she liked it and she did

"This tastes GREAT"
We better watch out otherwise we are gonna have ourselves another "orange" kid. The only foods Zach liked for a while were orange. Hopefully Madison isn't the same way.

6 Months Old

Time is passing by way to fast. No Way my baby could be 6 months already!! Caught "checking" herself out in the mirror
She loves to eat her dolly
Or attack it
She doesn't really stand, but for a few seconds she can
She loves to suck on this poor farmers arm
Madison is growing so much each day. She loves to grab for anything she can. Zachary is already getting mad at her for touching "his" stuff.

She Can sit up by herself if she sits still, but my little girl doesn't like to sit still for a second and so she falls over 99% of the time.

She can roll back over now, but rarely does it. In fact she rarely rolls over that much anymore. I think in her mind she's like "OK check that one off . . . now what"

It was hot the beginning of the week and I was so excited to put her in some of the little skirts I have for her. Watch out summer because my little girl has some CUTE outfits to wear. Can't wait to play dress-up.

We LOVE Kittens

Stephanie told us about the brand new baby kittens that they have so we HAD to go check them out.

Zach was excited....he LOVES cats say cheese

Zach loves to torment this poor bigger kitten.
I say it's His cat
It doesn't fight back or really try to get away at all. No matter What he does to it....and he does so pretty mean things. Like pick it up from the tail, or try to shove it into things.

Poor little kitty cat.
