BFF's!





I know what you're thinking... "Whaaaa? The dead has arised?!" I know, but I've made lots of cool stuff (well, I think it's cool), and I wanted to show you! I thought I'd post the pictures of our Christmas stockings. I let the kids make them this year with felt (I made the two younger kids). CAUTION: letting kids play with felt can get really messy!! But, on the happy side of it, they were entertained for literally HOURS! I love felt, it has become on of my new BFF's. I am not a seamstress, but with felt you can hot glue it or hand stitch it and it always turns out looking cute enough! I love felt!

Lucky Charms

So, we don't eat Lucky Charms very much, and especially not for breakfast, usually if we want a sweet snack. I'm just thinking that I can't blame my kids for just eating the marshmallows out of the cereal. I honestly think I would too. Maybe that's gross, and I'm sure I'd be sugared up the ying yang by the time I was done, but once couldn't hurt. Oh well...I still make them eat the sugar covered "oat" part. Not because it's healthy, but, actually I'm not sure why I do. It would probably be healthier for them to not eat it. Oh geez.

We don't need no Resolution

So... I haven't even thought of a resolution for this year yet. I'm not always that great about keeping a resolution, maybe that should be my resolution, to keep one through the year. But, then you have to make one to keep, so then you're making two...to make one and then the resolution to keep it. Hmmmm, it just sounds like a lot of work, and I'm busy. I'm a mom. What did you say? "Stop making excuses?" Me? Excuses?
Actually, there are a lot of things in life that I would like to resolute. I would love to go back to school, but it's not going to happen this year. Maybe next. I don't even really care about a degree, I mean, I would like to finish and get one, but I just want to take classes just for fun too.
Last year my resolution was to get more sleep. Well, I'm having a baby this year, so that's not going to get me far.
Maybe I just need to start with a super simple one, so that when I accomplished it at the end of the year, I'll feel pretty awesome, like it wasn't that hard.
Okay...my resolution... to eat something everyday. So far, so good!
Hope everyone has a wonderful, safe, happy, healthy year!
