New word video

Stevie has learned a new word

So one of his teachers' Miss Karah sent this to me, with sound. I HATE that I cant figure out how to add the sound but Im going to try and retake it tonight. He is saying "Hi Mommy!" Not the usual mamamamama. I think Ive watched it like 10 times already.

The kids


Aj was teaching Stevie to do a "model face". Trav made him stop right when I took the pic. I know the picture is really blurry, but we were in the car and I was dying laughing. Stevie carries a "Man Bag" for his pacifiers, puts on makeup and once took a pink blanket to school. Now AJ is teaching him to model. He was loving it too!!! Trav not so much! Look an Bubba's eyes, he's like whats wrong?!

Pay It Forward

A few months ago, I signed up on 2 blogs to Pay It Forward. Not really thinking much of it. The plan is for them to send out 3 handmade crafts to reciepients with in a year. Then in return I will send out 3 gifts and so on and so on. Well yesterday, I recieved my first Pay It Foward. It is a beautiful shawl along with a very nice postcard from Miss Jan in England.





Obviously the picture does not do any justice. First of all, I was surprised by the detail but then the fact it came from a stranger in England! How cool is that!



I've been in contact with my next Pay It Forward and she's hilarious. Calling me a Bag Lady is going to take on a whole new meaning now. So Miss Judy is sending this:



I was probably suppose to let it be a surprise but who could wait!!! Im so utterly excited. I could just about scream!

So I think I'm ready to start my Pay It Forward now. I have one person already, Miss Stephanie. So the next 2 people that leave comments, will recieve a handmade item from me. I have not decided what it will be yet. The only catch is you have to promise to send something out to 3 others.

Everything on hold for the next couple days

So a couple days ago, Stevie started having junk in his eyes, not big deal. Well yesterday it got worse and today it is horrible. Usually when the kids are sick, I just bringing them too work. Its so bad, I couldn't even do that. I'm stuck at home wiping everything down over and over. This is why I'm not a SAHM. I envy my friend Amanda that does it with 3 kids but it is definitely not for me. I have laundry to put up, sewing to do and dishes to clean but I don't want to spread any germs around. Hopefully A.J. doesn't get it. When she gets pink-eye, it progresses into Styes. She has already had her eye lanced before and I do not want her to have to go through that again. I have wipes that Trav got me from the hospital that kill everything. So here I am running around with my strong wipes, cleaning with gloves and a bottle of Germ-X in my back pocket! Perfect candidate for OCD!!!
