Creative Moment...AKA. I Must Be Driving You Nuts!

Haha! So yes, I have changed the blog theme yet again. Don't mind the header image. I made it. So that would explain its quality. -cough-

Anywho, If you scroll down, I have also added some wonderful banners to the sidebar. Click them. Please. Any of them that are click-able are things that I am very passionate about, and would appreciate greatly if you would help me support them. Yes, one of them is my etsy.com shop, which would support me. Thank you ahead of time. If you have any great banners and such for causes or anything, let me know! I'd love to add them! Or, if you know of anywhere to get great blog stuffs, let me know too. I'd love you forever. I really will. Promise!

Oooh! Homemade goodness!

C'mon Girls! You know you all love homemade stuff, AND pickles, so go enter at The Dayton Time for your chance to win a delectable array of homemade goodies including, yes, pickles!

Wow...How dissapointing.

Wow.

Not a single entry into my contest.

Not even a comment.

Wow.

Frantic Friday, or I Am Such a Procrastinator!

So, I'm heading out of town for the weekend in a few hours, and of course I'm not fully packed yet. Sooo, you're only getting a mildly entertaining post this morning. [Pssshh! That would require the other posts to have been entertaining!]

I spotted the Munchkin the other day providing me with a glimpse into his fashion future. I must say, I'm worried.




And yes, that is my sock he's wearing, and no, I didn't put it on him. I also have no idea where his pants went. I found him this way!

And with that, I wish you all a good day! I'll try to post at least a small post this weekend! Be back Monday!

Hmm...Maybe giving you free stuff will get you to read and comment AKA Bribing You to Read!

Yeah....I'm shameless, I know.

SO. In order to wake your lazy butts up to read my blog, which will in turn wake ME up and make me blog more, I am hosting my VERYFIRSTSHINEYGIVEAWAY. Wahoo!

Since Sunday is my Mom's birthday, [HI Mom!] it was pretty easy to come up with the entry idea. To enter, just leave a comment on this post, talking about either your favorite present you have received from your children, or, if you don't have kids, the most creative present you have given your mom.

Well, I guess thats kind of important! You will be winning a grab bag of crafts! The bag can contain Handmade cards, gift tags, and more! Examples taken with my terrible camera can be seen below. Good luck everyone, and START READING!






EDIT: I guess telling you when the winners will be picked would be a good thing! I think...Tuesday would be a good time :D Good Luck!...again.

Words cannot express...

The sadness I feel for this woman and her daughter. Please go read about her at The Dayton Time and please, please, please keep her and her daughter in your prayers. I do not personally know them, but for some reason, I feel such a strong pull in my heart to help them.

*Collapses*

Wow....just wow. The Holidays were a whirlwind! Christmas was wonderful. Cameron was in love with everything Santa brought him. He was so excited he hugged my legs as soon as he walked into the room! It was almost as though he couldn't believe it! The holidays also brought some more talking out of him. He seems to be skipping over the single word learning, and is learning small phrases instead. He now says Degu (Thank you), Dergo (There you go!), and Poppa (His name for my dad). Its wonderful to finally be able to see inside that beautiful little head of his and see his thoughts.

Christmas day, we had a wonderful time over at the Hubby's Grandparent's house. It was nice to have such a fun gathering with his family for a change. I still feel like the odd man out, but I feel it getting better.

Friday, my parents came out here and stayed the weekend. I cannot tell you how much I love my parents. They are the greatest people in the world. For some reason, having my mom around just seems to make every stress melt away. She's so helpful and loves to help with the baby. Then, on Sunday, I rode out with them and stayed until Thursday at their house. Again, wonderful. My parents love to cook, and I love to eat, so we get along well. :)

How were your holidays? Any fun/bad/horrifying things happen?
