Guilty Pleasure

Well it is Monday and time for another Blog Challenge!! Todays challenge is to spill the beans on your guilty pleasure. Well I can no longer keep them in the house due to my inablity to controll myself at all..................

Russell Stover Pecan Delights, they are little bits od paradise!!! The pecans the gooey caramel, and the chocolate!! What else could a girl need, they are better then the S word!! OK I am the mother of 2 with a 1 YO Mamas boy who sleeps with us everynight, LOL!! I have tried the Hershes POG ones and they do NOT compare.

One thing that is heartbreaking is that RS used to make a caramel, crunchy, chocolate bunny at Easter time, and they stoped making them. I bet my jeans are secretly thanking them.

Well on the scrap front.....

I oredered the QK in PINK!!!!!!!!! I am so psyched I got my shipping notice today, WOO HOO!!!! I have done alot of scrapping this weekend, and I am still LOVIN' the TSE Feb kit!! Surprisingly I am doing a ton of BOY LO's with it!!

Busy Day!!

Well our day started with my in-laws coming for breakfast, and staying for a while. Then they left around 11:30 and too Lexi with them. They took her to see Curious George (which she loved!!) Now I want to get her the soundtrack. Then they were off to Chuckie Cheese. I bet they did not take a camera.

I was home with my little grumpy man. He is feeling better finally, but is defitely lactose intoplerant, poor Bugga!! He helped my get some DT stuff done, and organize the "studio" a bit (ya he really helped, LOL)

I got my DT stuff today!! Amber ROCKS!! I am sure I have said it before, but she really does!! First of all the kit is amazing!! Then she sent us all some awesome goodies!! We each got an MM TAg Maker!! Woo Hoo!! and adhesive. I played my heart out with that kit!! I made the minibok out of the file folder, and altered the clipboard. I would love to get to do a LO tonight!! This has got to be one of my favorite kits ever!! www.thescrappingedge.net RULES!!

Blog Challenges

This is the first, thank you Amy!! I am really hoping this will get me back on the bloggin' wagon. Todays cahllenge was to blog about being a child of the.....

I am a child of the late 80's early 90's. That is when the teen years started and that is what I *sort of* remember, LOL!! Too much partying to remmeber it all!! The only thing I miss other than my black stretch pants, and Farlow jeans are my beloved EG Smith socks. Some of you know my last pair recently died and I am heart broken, :( Boo Hoo!! Hey I wonder if Bloomingdales still sells them, I highly doubt it.

Now we are supposed to blog about something going on with us now.....

The 2 men in the house are sick!! Bill started to paint my scrap space, and the bathroom yesterday, but had to stop due to the sickies:( Now my scrap space is in shambles!! I hope that I can find stuff in there today!! I did a LO last night, wiyth the bare minimums.

What a week!

It has been crazy!! Weather wise it was 72 one day and 32 the next, how crazy is that! My parents were here, UGH!! That is all I have to say about that. The baby was sick with a tummy virus, poor little bugga. He is feeling much better now.

I got a BoBunny Love book kit from my secret Valentine!! OMG it is awesome. I put it together and I love it!!! Not too much scrapping going on until today I have been scrapping my heart out, I needed the break...

Pretty Ribbon!!

OK so I only worked for 2 1/2 hours yesterday and it felt like ALL DAY!! It is so hard to work with the kids hangin' on me. Not to mention the "deleting incident" UGH!!!!!!!!! Boy it is rough!!

I was so happy yesterday. Bill put up my towel rack and I played with ribbon!! I also sold some ribbon that I have way too much of. I was so proud of myself.

Wednesday

Well I really want to just vent a little today!! I am so tired of the kids not sleeping well or not sleepinf in their own beds!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would love to be alone with Bill in bed for 1 night!!! They are totally adjusted to the house, they are just such bad sleepers. I can understand the baby he has got the worst diaper rash ever!! If anyone has any helpful hints for that please post them!!!

I kinda started working today, but my printer was not ver cooperative, so I just typed up what I had to and e-mailed it in to be printed. It is so hard trying to work at home with the kids running around and crying and such. Anyone have and hints on that feel free to post those too.

I do feel very creative in the house. I think I have been doing some of my best scrapping here!! I really love my space I just need to put up shelves DESPERATLY, I can't find a thing so I am taking forever to finish a LO. I really need Bill to take down the GIANT mirror over the scrap area so I can get this place organised.

We're Here

We are here and pretty much settled into the house. Bill starts his new job tomorrow. I am so happy for him!! The kids love the house, so much room to run and crawl and play! Alexa loves the yard, she is such a cutie out there playing. The weather has been wonderful, in the 60's and 70's all week. Today it dropped to the low 50's, and supposed to be high 40's low 50's all week. Winter is here!! Of course there are a few glitches, but nothing major, and Bill had been Mr Fix-it. I am super proud of how well he is doing with all of the house stuff. The lase rooms to do are our bedroom and bath. I want to paint our bathroom RED.

I finally got to scrap yesterday!! I did a DT LO for www.thescrappingedge.net It felt great to have a new scrap space. even with the mess it is in right now, yikes!! I need shelves really badly, and some new storage ideas for stuff like embellies and i need soem verti things for my paper.

Tomorrow Is The Day!!

Sorry I haven'tposted in a while, it has been so crazy with pacling and sick kids and all that goes along with the whole buying a house process!! Alexa is feeling much better, and Wil has a cold/cough. I think his has alot to do wioth teething though.

Well tomorrow is the biig moving out day!! We will pack the remainder of the last minutes stuff tonight and we are all boxed up. Bye Bye NY, Hello VA!!!!

I have fit a little scrapping in here and there. I did get a bunch of DT stuff done for www.thescrappingedge.net (new addy, we have a board and a gallery now, WOO HOO!!!).

Blog, What's that????????

Wow it has been a while. Happy New Year!! It has been crazy to sat the least! We will be outta here hopefully by the 17th!! WOOOO HOOOOO!!! It is getting very empty and echo-ie here, here, here, lol!!

I have been scrapping as much as I can. I am almost done with the Christmas 6x6 chipboard album I am making. I am very impressed with myself for getting as much of this done as I have!!

Boxes and Tape

I am so sick of boxes and tape!!! But the packing is progressing nicely. Sounds like Bill has the job in Newport News, and we may close the 2nd week in Jan when he is down there. Bill is going to be off tomorrow and we plan on getting alot packed!!

I of course am still scrapping daily. If I didn't I would go completely CRAZY!!

Photos by David Travers, LOL!!

the 26th

Well it is the day after all of the hoopla. The kids had ana amazing christmas yesterday!! So much excitement is Alexa is was such an amazing thing to see. We had Christmas AM here then showered dressed and went to Grandma and Grandpas early. Of course there were presents galore, and Santa came!! The kids and our whole family just had the most wonderful day together. That is what it is all about!!

Wow life has changed so much since last year at this time!!

Last year
Alexa still did not get Christmas
Wil was in my belly
I was on modified bedrest for almost 2 months already
We were not sure if we were going to move to VA
I barely scrapped
I only got 1 kit
I did not have all of the amazing friends I now have that I met online!!

This Year
Alexa is counting down the days until Santa comes with presents, LOL
Wil is 11 months old, happy and healthy
I never want to be on bedrest again!!
We will be moving in about 4 weeks
I am a scrap-a-holic!!
I am a kit junkie!!
I have the most amazing friends anyone could ever ask for!!

2 More Days!!

Oh boy does Alexa git the whole Santa thing this year. She is driving me batty!!! "Yes Santa is coming to town" "santa bring me presents and TOYS!!", and the cookies!! She just stares at them asking for a cookie from 5AM. I can't wait to get those pictures of her first reactions to the presents under the tree!!

I have been scrapping, for some reason I just can't get into scrapping christmas yet. I have done a few LO's, but I am not loving them!

3 More days until presents!!!

You Are Rudolph

Sweet and shy, you tend to be happiest when you're making someone else happy. Why You're Naughty: You sometimes stick that nose where it doesn't belong Why You're Nice: Christmas would be a sad affair without you!

Which of Santa's Reindeer Are You?

How cute is that!! That you Dalis for the link!!

I did a cute Christmas LO today. I don't ever want to make cookies again!!!

Cookie Day!!

Today is cookie day!! So far iced sugar cookies are done, and snowballs are 1/2 done. Next comes chocolate cip and something else with chocolate, but I am not sure of what yet. Yesterday we took the car to get an "oreo" (oil) change as Alexa calls it, lol. Got a couple more toys for the kids and wrapped them up last night. BRING ON SANTA, we are ready!!

I did a LO yesterday, but haven't dona a title yet. I only did 1 LO on Monday, I know I have to make either a card or a mini mini book for a gift today, UGH!!

6 More Days!!

Until Santa comes!! Woo Hoo!! Alexa so gets Christmas, and Santa this year!! Right now she is watching a Princess Christmas video. Yesterday was a blast!! Santa Came up here yesterday, Alexa was so excited to see him on the Fire Engine!! Of course it would have been noce if he would have stopped to say hi to the kids as he left one of the neighbors apartment :(, none-the-less Alexa was so happy!! Then last night we went to see Christmas lights, we went to WP and to Harrison. I can't wait until both kids are big enough to understand, Wil slept in the car and Alexa and I got out to look around at the house in Harrison. I think she was a little overwhelmed.

Scrappy wise, I accomplished 3 LO's yesterday. I was going crazy packing boxes and when I am stressed I scrap better I think.

12/17/05

Not too much happened yesterday, SSDD, KWIM?? I do have to share this link with you, all the Star Wars lovers will get it.... http://christmaschebacca.ytmnd.com/ I am still listening to it!! I really can't believe how close we are to christmas, holy cow where did this year go????

I did a cute LO yesterday, and a clipboard that I love, but I am too lazy to take a pic of it. I cleaned the scrap space again!! I really hope I have a little more room in the house. I cannot find a thing.

More of the same

Yesterday was just another day doing the same stuff. Kids played and ate, and slept. I packed, cleaned, and scrapped. Bill had some excitement. He went to work, drove home last night, but could not make it up the hill due to the ice. On his trek up the hill to get home he fell. Poor Bill :( I spoke to my sister, sjhe had an OK birthday.

I did 3 LO's yesterday. I did a mono, but when I scanned it the colors lok terrible. I put alot of effort into the title it is 3 hand cut layers. The bottom is stamped, the middle is inkled and the top is stamped and heat embossed.

Sorry about the color distortion

Down to the wire

Yup it is really the 15th of December!! It is my sister's birthday, Happy Birthday Dee!! That means about 1 month until we close on the house, WOW!! and 10 day until Christmas Day!! I shopped and wrapped yesterday, and I think I am mostly done, yeah!! I packed a few more boxes this AM of knick-knacks, trying to get as much done as possible.

On the scrappy side os life.... I have been scrappinglike crazy the past few days. On Tuesday I did 4LO's. Two were for the DT www.thescrappingedge.com , and the other two were for me :). Last night I was on a roll too, I did 3 LOs all challenges for www.just4keeps.com. I think I made for for the days I was sick now;).
