Wooden Crafts

This week we have all had a bit of a cold. Unfortunatly that means we have been shut in the house all week! I started playing around with some wooden crafts and have found a new hobby!

Here are some pictures of my latest creations:

I made these to include as keepsakes in the Project Sweet Pea bags.

This was made to match a bedding set for a dear friend of mine

This is a frame I made for a friend who loves lighthouses. I have the perfect picture to put in it! :)

This is for Ayla's room 

Thats all for now...Thanks for looking!!!

Sweet Pea Shower

First I want to thank everyone who helped with the Sweet Pea Shower! We had a great day and collected tons of items to stuff the gift bags with! I'm hoping to go to the hospital next week to drop off some of these bags!

Here are a couple pictures from the Shower:

Home Sweet Home

Last week Ayla and I went down to visit with my sister in South Carolina for a week. It was an amazing week! We met my little nephew, who is absolutely adorable, and Ayla was able to finally meet her Auntie Missy and Grandma C. It was great just to be able to see them again! I was even able to go to Charleston for a day and see some friends from IHOP ;)

I am finally home, and now trying to catch up with everything! It's amazing how many emails can accumalate in a week!

Here are some pics from our grand adventures:

Welcome to the World Dominic Xavier!!!

Just wanted to announce that my nephew, Dominic Xavier (I hope I'm spelling his name right!) was born this afternoon! Big congrats to my little sister, Missy, who is going to make a great mom :) I can't wait to go meet him next week!!!! I will post pictures as soon as I can!!!

Terrible Two's....already???

This picture pretty much explains my life lately. A screaming toddler! Wow, what happened to my perfect little angel?! She has been throwing the worst tantrums lately! Spoiled doesn't begin to describe her, and she hates to be told 'no'. In fact she hates the word so much, she decides that it is necessary to turn into a devil child and attempts to blow mommy's ear drums with her screeches! I've always heard of the "terrible twos" but I thought I had a little more time before I had to worry about that! Wow, this is making me re-think having another baby for a loooong time! lol


Overall she has been great. Ayla had her 18 month check up a few weeks ago. She weighed in at 27 lbs 4 oz and 34" tall (although I believe she is taller, the nurse had a really hard time getting her to stay still...lol). She is finally starting to come out with some new words, but "mommy" STILL isn't one of them :( Stubborn little girl! She reached the minimum number of words to avoid speech therapy for another few months. The pediatrician wants to re-evaluate her at her next appointment and make a decision.

Ayla and I are leaving for South Carolina next week! My little nephew is due this week! I'm so excited to get the news..... I can't wait to meet him :) Ayla hasn't met her Auntie Missy or her grandma Cheryl yet, so this will be a very exciting trip for everyone! We are staying down for a week, and I'm hoping to be able to take a drive to Charleston for a day trip to see some old friends!

Well thats about it for now! I'm going to really try to update more often :)
