My latest craft project!


I found this crochet pattern on-line and decided to try it out. It was a really REALLY easy pattern and looks pretty dang cute on my little girl! Honestly; however, I think almost anything looks cute on Scotland. I am not a huge fan of ponchos but since it was such an easy pattern and I thought that Scotland would really enjoy the fringes I decided that this was a pattern I could not pass up. I am glad I made it! It turned out so much cuter than I ever imagined it would.

A trip down memory lane

Okay, only one more post today. Brief story here. Right before the twins were born (I'm talking just days) a friend of Aaron's came over and took pictures of us for a Christmas gift to me from Aaron. LOTS of time passed and we never saw the pictures. I was so sad since these were basically the only pictures I had of me pregnant with twins. This last Christmas Aaron, I mean Santa left a USB disc in my stocking and on this was all the pictures. I was so happy!! I guess Aaron had gotten in touch with this guy again and got him to give us the pictures. Anyways, I though that some of you might enjoy seeing me HUGE with twins.

Lid Drawer


Scotland just found our lid drawer in our kitchen. She had so much fun for so long! All she did was take this one lid out and put it back in, over and over again. She was so cute getting so excited about this simple activity so I had to take a picture. She really is a doll!!!

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I hope that you all had an enjoyable one. For my kids for Valentine's Day I made the boys super hero capes. They loved them and wear them. Here are a few pictures of my super kiddos!

Gabe, posing on his horse. Gabe actually has quite a few pretty hilarious poses!



Ezra, his cape is a little long on him but at least he will grow into it.



Landon, sitting on his bike (it's kind of hard to tell, he just looks short). He was not quite as sure about the capes at first (I think mostly because of his sensory issues). Once he noticed how cool everyone else thought they were, he decided they weren't so bad.

Move over Emeril!!!



I like to cook for my little guys and I try to make nice things, somewhat healthy things, and fun things. One day for lunch I decided to just go for the fun things to make and made pigs in a blanket. I know, they are not healthy or good (in my opinion) but I thought the kids would think that they are fun. Sure enough they did. They thought they were SO fun. While eating them, Gabe looked up at me and said, "I love you mom." I replied, "I love you too Gabe." He then said, very excitedly, "You are the best cooker in the WORLD!" I laughed and said, "thanks Gabe." So his wife will probably never have a hard time pleasing his stomach.
If any of you are dying to get my recipe, it will only cost ya $250. I AM the greatest cooker in the world after all!!
