Preschool video

I couldn't get my email to attach a video clip of the kids in our little neighborhood co-op preschool, so I'm posting it here so they can check it out. My house has never been so clean, thanks to all those hard workers!

Birthday Bruises

My wonderful son is the most accident prone person I have ever met. He's even worse than I am (even when I pregnant), which is hard to beat! So, we're putting off the "professional" birthday photos because every time I want to get them done he falls and whacks himself (usually somewhere on the face). No I don't abuse my child, I just have a VERY active, clumsy baby. The latest happened last night after his bath. He was crawling on the bathroom floor, when his hand slipped out from under him and his cute little teeth cut his mouth right open and gave him a nice fat lip, once he stopped bleeding. Looking good, Caleb! Hopefully, the bruise on your forehead from the night before will fade soon, along with the ones on your cheek from the beginning of the week. I envy your energy and your ability to bounce back so easily to move on to the next injury. I'm surprised that you haven't need stitches yet, so that's a plus! Happy Birthday! We love you!!!

Savannah's excuses

So, this has nothing to do with stamping, but it does involve art, so I decided to post this anyway. Savannah has been playing with her friend Aubrie this morning and they pulled out the markers to color some beautiful pictures. After a couple of minutes Savannah told me she got some on her hand and needed me to help her clean it. She came down, and her ENTIRE hand was covered in black marker. (I would have taken a picture, but my camera batteries are dead and I needed to clean it up ASAP.) So, while cleaning her up I lectured her about how we never color our bodies and how she should know better. I asked her why she did it and she looked at me with an innocent face and said, "The marker made me do it." Who needs the devil when you have markers forcing you to do things?

Party Favors

For a child's birthday party, here is a quick and cute party favor idea for the guests. Simple yet fun!

Class Thank You!

Thanks to all who came to my kitchen craft class! I had a great time with all of you and loved seeing your creativity at work! You have such great ideas! I have a few leftover aprons & bibs (a last minute addition I found) if anyone needs some extras. My next class will be in June, so watch for more details to come. And as always, if you need to order anything from Stampin' Up! or would like to earn free stamps by hosting a workshop or class let me know! Thanks so much.
