Spring Fever

With it being so cold and windy lately the kids are getting restless so whenever we see the sun shining and the temperatures above 50 we bundle up and head out back to RUN.RUN.RUN. We can't wait for spring and summer to get here. Oh how the kids love to be outside.

  Rylan was having so much fun running he couldn't sit long enough for a picture



Naptime Sewing

Whenever I go to Walmart I always check the remnants pile for cute fabric that someday might get a new life! The last time I was there I picked up 1/2 yard of cute flannel for $1.25. We get home and it goes in the closest with the rest of the fabric to sit and wait on me to bring it new life. (most of the fabric is still sitting because well it's waiting on me.. and if you haven't noticed I'm pretty busy)

So the other night as I was getting Reese dressed for bed I noticed her pajama pants were very cute and looked super comfortable and super easy to recreate. So the next day while the babe was taking her nap I got to work making her some new super comfortable super cute flannel pajama pants. Now I in NO way do I know how to sew or read patterns or even cut in a straight line but I did try my best,and I put lots of love into making these pants. I still haven't washed them so I'm crossing my fingers they don't fall apart when I do. 



                                She looks pleased!! I see lots of pajama pants in my near future. :)

Finally

2 weeks is a long time for SAHM to have 3 kids under the age 5 in the house all day by herself while trying to potty train a 2 year old. We live off of routine so needless to say it was a long break and we are all glad to be back in the swing of things. Christmas things put away, school, dance, and gymnastics in full swing. It even took an extra week to feel normal again. House is clean, dinner in the oven and I'm enjoying some peace and quite. I do however miss those lazy mornings laying around on the floor (wrestling the kids) and wearing our pj's all day.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!


We had a wonderful Christmas this year with all of our family. Raynee really enjoyed it this year with Santa coming and putting out cookies and Reindeer food! We are all ready to get back to a normal routine, it's been hard on Raynee (she loves school and seeing her friends). We look forward to the new year and all that it may bring. see you in 2011.................

Happy Birthday Reese!

A look at the past year...




 














Happy Birthday Reese We LOVE YOU !!!


It's Chirstmas time again...

Ok, so this is only the second time our tree has been up in 6 years of marriage.....

I have lots of excuses.... dog... baby.... moved....baby...moved...baby.....

So we finally have a tree up with lights and that's about it, no ornaments because as of now the kids aren't even bothering the tree. We do have stockings that hang on the fireplace at night (during the day Rylan pulls them down) and we have a wreath on the door. So I say that's good enough for this year ( hey it's better than previous years). Who says you need all that fancy stuff to have a GREAT Christmas anyway???
