Long weekend!!

My house has been full of bodies since Thursday. My 2 nieces came over while I babysat them on Thursday. My parents came over right before my nieces left. Then Friday my nieces came back one more time to be babysat. Saturday my daughter's had their b-day party. That was fun. The weather was perfect for a princess/pool party. My SIL made this gorgeous cake (as usual) for the girls!! The girls had lots of fun at the party. We had guests stay over (parents and Morgan's godparents) Saturday evening. Then on Sunday they all left. Sunday evening my SIL came back over with her girls and had a sleep over b/c on Monday I had a doctor's appointment.

I finally got to hear the baby's heartbeat and I even got a sneak peek of it!!! It feels real now!! I was sooo nervous before the doc came into the room. I was just hoping everything with the baby was alright, which I think most pregnant mom's to be feels before their doc appointment. Can't wait to go again in 4 weeks. I think she gives ultrasounds at each visit. And she even has a 3D machine...how cool!!! Now, just need to wait and see if we have little boy or little girl. AND YES, only 1 growing in my belly!!

TRYING

Well, I've added something to the left side of my blog as well as did some changes to the top. Can you spot them?

My crop

Well, I had a crop at my house on Sunday. It wasn't the turnout that I'd hoped for, but it was nice and quiet. We all got stuff done. The funny thing was it was my 2 SIL's and my MIL!!! They all did 3 pages and I only did 1 LO and 1 card!! Heehee. I was too busy talking and helping. I was just glad that they are taking to scrapping more than I thought they would!!

My one SIL is into scrapping now. She's got a nice architect table at her house and has converted a spare bedroom into a craft room and is collecting scrap supplies. She was working on her step-son's wedding album. It was pretty good if you ask me.

My other SIL, my best friend, was working on her cake book that I made her for her b-day. There is plenty of room to add more pix of her cakes that she keeps making and she wants to put the pix in her album for people to see. She had fun figuring out how to be creative. She said it was draining though!

My MIL worked on her cruise album that I partically made her for their 30th anniversary. She had no clue what she was doing but she did AWESOME!

I was really proud of them all!! While they where over, my hubby and girls went to a horse farm. The girls LOVED it!! I'll have to add some pix!



Well, that's it about my week so far. It's going pretty slow. Kind of boring actually. Took the girls to a movie yesterday for the kid matinee. It was Sydney's first movie at a theater and she did GREAT!!! We saw "Doogal". It was a cute movie. Maybe we'll go to the beach this week sometime. It's just so hard to want to go do stuff and not have to pay sooo much for the activities. Well, that's it for now.

Mojo came back!!!

Finally...I got my mojo back!! I cleaned and organized my scrap room a little more today and redid my cabinets. I'm soo excited that I felt like scrapping tonite!! It's like I cleared my head after clearing my area! WHAT A RELIEF!!

I better get mojo b/c I have a crop party at my house on Sunday. I think only 5 people will attend plus myself, but for 4 straight hours, no hubby or kids, it'll be fun! Looking forward to it.

Tomorrow I need to do some housework and getting my supplies ready for the crop. Here is my LO that I did and a look at my scraproom.

Happy July 4th!

Well, the past couple of days have been somewhat painful. Monday I had a migraine all day and the girls were really good to me. They let me just lounge around while I stuck out the migraine. At times I felt like puking but didn't. I had some close calls, but it was okay. I felt so bad b/c we didn't do anything that day. Tylenol didn't help and it stunk b/c I can't take anything else. This baby better be a boy!!! heehee

Yesterday it took an eternity just for the fireworks in Inverness. The girls were so anxious from the time they woke up. We finally met my niece and her family around 6 to go over to the park where the festivities would be. BUT the weather wasn't looking in our interest. In fact, we had to take cover twice. DH wasn't sure if he'd make the fireworks b/c of work and eventually a little twist of his arm over the phone got him to the park just in time. But he brought more rain with him! The kids were a little disappointed b/c they knew that the rain would stop the fireworks. In fact, the 3rd shower changed a lot of people pack up and go home. Just as they all got their chairs in bags, coolers packed up and blankets folded the fireworks started!!! The girls were in awe and it ended up turning out perfect! I'm just glad that we stuck it out.

This morning my husband and decided to wake up Sydney around 630am to sing her Happy B-day. Only b/c DH was leaving for work. She got up and ran outside the room and stood behind a wall while we sang to her. I think she was a little embarrassed as well as sleepy. Then when we stopped she ran back into the room, fell on the floor next to the bed and hid. We had to pick her up and lay her back to sleep!! It was soo funny. She's still sleeping now, 1 1/2 hours later!! :) Morgan didn't even budge when we tried waking her up. And to think it was her idea to do this!! Oh well.

I can't believe Syd's 3 today. Today is my 3rd year being a SAHM and retired from work too. WOW, time flies. Only to start the diaper and formula thing all over again in 7 months. :)

Well, hope all has a Happy 4th and enjoy the fireworks!!

Lost Mojo and another Toot!

Well, I haven't had the desire lately to scrap!! NIGHTMARE!!! I can't seem to find my mojo. It's not hiding in my house b/c I've looked everywhere!! Maybe it's on vacation, maybe it ran away. I just hope it finds it's way back home soon!!

On a better note...I submitted some LO's to savvynsassy.com for their DT call. Didn't get picked but they asked me to be a Guest Designer for September. I'm really excited about it!! I wasn't expecting anything from the submission, just getting a little experience and stepping outside my box. Dont' know if I'll submit to any in the near future...got to see how life is going to be like with 3 kiddos!!!

Well, that's all for now. I'm keeping my fingers crossed my mojo stops in today sometime. If you've seen or heard the whereabouts of my mojo...tell it to come home!
