funny anecdote and a pic

i just wanted to share

Brady, who's 5 is so funny!  The other day we were watching a kid's movie and there was a preview of Barbie a mermaid's tale.  Brady says: "I wanna see that!" 
Me: "really? why?"
Brady: " because surfing is cool"  (Barbie surfs in this movie)
and then he adds "I LOVE girls!"
Me: " ok, then." LOL  he's hilarious!

BellaG Designs and my boys

So first off i just wanted to share these cute pictures of my boys; they are growing up so fast it's unbelievable! You are probably wondering what Charlie has in his face. Well, I personally do not like Cadbury easter eggs with the gooey creamy center but i was curious to know if the kids liked them so while we were running errands at the pharmacy i bought them each an egg that they quickly devoured in the car. Of course that meant very chocolaty fingers! I told them to lick them clean (uh, hello! that's the best way to clean up chocolate!) Brady just wiped his hands on his jeans (after i specifically told him not to!) Charlie (that's my boy!) licked his fingers clean, well almost. He started with the pinky, that he stuck in his mouth of course that made the first and middle finger stick up in his face and that is why he's got two chocolate lines up his face. On the whole drive home i kept telling him not to wipe his face clean cause i wanted to take a pic! scrapbooker mom, what can i tell ya!

now off to some cards. here are all the cards i made for my first special order through BellaG Designs. These were all for one of my hubbie's co-worker. hope she likes them!

holiday pictures recap

i can't believe we're already 1 week into January! i've been meaning to do a post with a recap of some of my favorite pictures from the holidays at our house. Of course i'm in none of them since i'm always behind the camera. Can you believe i didn't even think of using my tripod to get myself in the x-mas morning photo?! oh well... maybe next year. (was that a resolution?) speaking of which, i never make them since i can't keep them! but there are some projects i'd like to get done this year so maybe i'll make a list after all.

i have lots of cards made...too many in fact! i think i'll be setting up a shop, either Etsy or Shop Hand made.com, this year to get rid of a few. Anybody have any pros/cons regarding these two shops? Tomorrow i'll be showcasing another card from the PWCO jan papercard kit.

ps: my dad is still in the hospital, may be getting out soon. (Updated: i just got a call he is getting out today, so i'll be picking him up after supper)

i'm gonna leave you with the pics in question. just so you don't think i ever wash Charlie's face... the pics where he's got this great dirty mustache is because he just discovered hot chocolate and he loves it! these pics were taken right or while he was drinking it.
