Under 24 hours Baby!




I made Nich a small quilt for his crib/toddler bed. Went so fast! Probably cuz I didn't do any fancy designs, just squares and rectangles. I figured that was the best way to show off the BATMAN, Tractors, and CARS! WOohoo! I rule. Well, sometimes. I'm contemplating making something for work tomorrow, but it's 9, and I'm tired. I'll think about it....

Crazy Done

I'm so TIRED! That kid is a morning person, and I'm not. hahah...

Epiphany - We old parents are so tired, cuz we are doing EVERYTHING for the kids! I notice how much planning it takes to do anything. Diaper Bag alone is a big deal. Be sure you have snacks, diapers, wipes, change of clothes, butt paste, and toys. That's just for starters. Then, you either push or carry the kid, usually cuz they get tired. Now, you can begin to understand why most parents are tired, and the kids are running around like crazy!

We are going to get pictures made with Nich's cousins. I have to go iron shirts, and get ready for the big day!

OK>..Nich is kissing the pilot in his helicopter. Weird-O. hahah

Nich Story- The other day, Nicholas was eating an apple slice. I asked him if the apple was yummy in his belly. He took it and tried to put it into his belly button. SO LITERAL!

I have pics that I need to upload, but I'm tired. hahahhah

Some pics and stuff

Nicholas in his new G Diapers. I like them, but Gary hates them. I say he's lazy. They are about 30 bucks more a year compared to Disposables.
Nich is a cowboy baby! This picture makes me laugh! He's so silly.
I made my version of Cookie Monster Cupcakes. Oreo in the mouth for good measure. They are Chocolate with Buttercream Frosting! YUMMY.
Here's the finished pic of the small quilt I made for Elyse. I hope she enjoys! First time EVER to make a quilt. Not as easy as you might think...PLUS I go too fast on the sewing machine. Boredom sets in and I'm like.....SPEED IS GOOD.

Wuz Up Green Planet?

I bought GDiapers (http://www.gdiapers.com/) cuz I feel guilty. They are a super cool concept. Cute too. Too bad that Nicholas likes to undo the velcro. hahah. They are encouraging him to use the potty though.
Oh, and Nicholas doesn't DARE get out of his crib unless I say ok. That was fun to train him on that. I said, "As God is my witness, YOU WILL stay in the crib until you turn 3." I just kept laying him back down when he tried to get out. Crazy, but worked.
We went to MY GYM today. Super fun, super expensive. Thank goodness for free class. He loved it, but I can't afford the money. 70 buckeroos a month. SHEESH! That's what I pay for my gym with him on my membership. LIttle blokes are expensive.
Now, if only the kid would take a nap...I'm tired.

Cribs suck

I'm going to get me a young-un. He learned to climb out of his crib today. NOW, an hour later, still awake. I'm so SICK of fighting him to get back and STAY in bed. Curse the fact that there is no lid on a crib.
On a lighter note, I have a WII! The coolest thing in the world, and I hate playing games. We bought Mario Cart. SO MUCH FUN>
Off to hurt the child. Well, maybe just put him back in bed AGAIN>
later,

Gettin' Crafty Over Here

I'm on a roll. I made two diaper cakes, 12 cupcakes, chicken salad, and a duck cake! I've also picked up some sewing projects from over 2 years ago. Go me! Let's see if I can accomplish what I started out doing over 2 years ago. Oh, and I have had a stomach virus. Nich did too. I was thrown up on 3 times in less than 24 hours. I'm so over puke.


Here's some pics....
The one above was for my sister's baby shower. One below was for an office baby shower.
I'll post pics of the cupcakes and duck cake, BUT they weren't as good cuz I was getting over my stomach bug. GO ME!
