Lovely Devil



Guess which ones of my kids is the angel? It's funny. I ask Hayden, what is Lexie, and he tells me, "Angel." When I ask him "What are you?" He says "De-gel" (Can't quite say "devil" yet). But I guess he is a cross between an angel and devil so "De-gel" is appropriate! Credits

Jolly Holliday

Here are some holiday photos. This one was taken last year before I had Lexie. Just our happy little family of 3 1/2! Credits.


This one is a more recent one taken this year of me and Hayden at a flower stand by Bristol Farms. We had lunch there and just enjoying a sunny afternoon. Credits.


I just put up my Christmas tree. This is me and Lexie. Look at her rubbing her cute little eyes because she's sleepy! Credits.

All three LO's are made with Gina Marie Huff's kit, Jolly Holliday at Weeds and Wildflowers.

Lexie at 7 months old


This is Lexie at 7 months old. She is starting to sit up unassisted, babbles a lot when she's happy, and on good days can sleep straight to 5:30 in the morning before she gets a bottle. She is such an angel!

Country Love by Joanne Bain



Here's one of the kids at Roger's Garden. I wanted to take more pumpkin patch pictures, but Hayden was really enthralled by the toy train installation and wouldn't budge from looking at the train. I just ended up taking tons of pictures of Lexie in the pumpkins.

Kit used is Country Love by Joanne Bain at Pickleberrypop. Halloween ABC's WordArt by Elegant WordArt by Bethany at Scrap Orchard.

Halloween 2008



We had a blast trick-or-treating this year with Hayden and Lexie. Lexie was dressed as a baby bee, and Hayden was Mickey Mouse. It was funny that Hayden was too scared to trick-or-treat from the ghosts and goblins who were handing out candy, but had no problems with all the pretty blonde princesses who were handing out candy. For the former, he'd tell me, "I'm too scared! I don't want to go in there." For the pretty girls, he'd march right up to them, and said, "Trick-or-Treat."

This is a two-page LO I made using Tangie Baxter's Midnight in the Parlor and Charming Fright Night. I also used Jodie McNally's Halloween Word Art.

Tales of My Childhood by Mimilou Designs


This is a picture of me and the kids reading at a library. If we have time, we stop by on our walks and I'll read to Hayden and Lexie while Anthony reads his car magazines!

The quote is from Einstein, and it says, "If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales." --Albert Einstein



If you like my Word Art, then you can download it here. The tag and kit used to design this page is from Mimilou Designs Tales of my Childhood available at www.digital-crea.fr

I'd really appreciate it if you left some love!

Boys


Here's one of Hayden having tons of fun at the park. He had a blast playing on the slides and then pushing the button on the water fountain just to see the water run! Kit used is Ethan's Backyard by Ziggle Designs at scraporchard, and WordArt by Elegant WordArt by Bethany also at scraporchard.

Mimilou Designs



Here are two more LO's using Mimilou Designs the World of Color (Word Art by Jodie McNally) and Greedy Pleasure (to be released on 10/26/08). The first LO is of Hayden and Lexie being cute together, and the second one is of Lexie at exactly 6 months old. She's able to smile, eat solids, and yell when she's frustrated at you. She's only waking once or twice at night, and is such a sweet little baby!

Halloween


We went to a Halloween store with lots of scary looking products, and Hayden actually got scared! He said, "I want to leave!" Here's a picture of me and Hayden. Look at his terrified expression! The poor kid.

Twilight


Well, you can say I'm hooked on this series. I was number 38 on the waiting list at the library for this book, so I actually went out and BOUGHT it. Not only did I buy the first book, I bought all four of them! Highly recommended for an escapist romance novel. Swoon.
