While I was in the magnet making mood I decided to make a magnet out of this pretty ladybug paperweight my MIL gave me. I can use it more as a magnet than a paperweight. So I cut out a piece of paper and glued it to the underside of the marble. Then glued a…

We had our office visit on Monday. It was required for our licensing. During the visit we learned something that is kind of a bummer. We have to be chosen by the child(ren)’s social worker. Which makes sense. I guess my brain just never made the connection. So basically once our home study is complete…

CSP’s parents recently made a trip back to Minnesota where CSP grew up. They brought him back some of his favorite home town beer. Old Style by Heileman’s. He’s only drinking one every now and then to make them last. He was looking sad about them disappearing so I thought I’d make magnets out…

I’ve been looking for a good, wide brimmed straw hat to take on our cruise. I burn like paper to a flame the moment I walk outside no matter the level of SPF on my skin so a big hat is necessary when going to the beach. I wasn’t happy with last summer’s hat (not…

We’ve been having a problem lately with those ginormous mosquitoes getting into the house and dive bombing us. That leads to me having horrible dreams of them crawling into my mouth and ears. So CSP has been waging his own personal war against them. The other night I heard him fighting with one then came…

One of my MIL’s coworkers made her these origami pugs. 2 black ones and a fawn just like her grandpugs Kiki, Molly & Zoe! So cute!
