You *ROCK* Valentines!

On last weeks Dr. Visit ( since i visit Bi-weekly), i found THIS valentines Craft and figured i would steal it! I H-A-T-E all the ugly Valentines they have.. and this is super super easy, so folks this is what we're doing.. do you think it will be a HIT?! ( I just bought my Necco boxed hearts at the Dollar tree in a set of 4 for 1.00- at WAl*mart, they sell them individually for 33 cents each.. so.. more for your $ at the dolla tree of course!!)

(This idea is from Familyfun.com)
CRAFT MATERIALS:
Tape
2 (14-inch) pieces of string
2 mini peanut butter cups
1 (1-ounce) box of conversation hearts
2 (4-inch) circles of aluminum foil
4- by 7-inch strip of pink paper
Glue stick
Sheet of white printer paper or
printable scroll wheel and playlist
Time needed: Under 1 Hour
1. Tape each end of a piece of string to a peanut butter cup. Tie on the other piece of string as shown, then tape the loose end to the candy box. 2. Wrap each peanut butter cup in a circle of aluminum foil. 3. Wrap the pink paper strip around the candy box and secure it with a glue stick. 4. Cut paper shapes and write text for the scroll wheel and playlist (or
download and print ours), and use a glue stick to attach them to the box. Write a valentine message on the back of the box.

When Saturdays Are "Boring"


Saturday's are our only GUARANTEED time with daddy for the week, so we usually stick around the house or close to home. This particular Saturday, we did nothing but stay inside all day and Mini me made the most of it.
She is like a little mom, to Muffin- you can always hear her coming up with things for muffin to do. On this day, she dressed her up so that they matched each other- so cute. Both ready to go "shopping" and i think the hair on them both is the funniest part, aside from the sunglasses!!! These days are what make life long memories!!

Sound. it. out

I try so hard to not be an over- bearing mom. I want mini me to do well in school- when it comes to homework, i work with her on it, but i will also let her do it on her own and then check it for mistakes- tonight, she had to do a small report- type thing on someone that was an inspiration to her and make a postage stamp. she wrote a little description below that said:
" The President of the NeWningtid States"- too. freaking. funny!! i *COULD* not stop laughing. Of course, i corrected her, but these are the things that make me love her- she sounded it out and thats ALL that matters!

*--Sweet Treats--*

Mini Me *LOVES* baking so much lately! For the past few months she talks about how she wants to open her own restaurant some day. So, she jumps at ANY opportunity to cook- and does it OH SO WELL! i have trained her so well, she doesnt lick her fingers when she cooks cause she knows those nasty lil germs will get all over the food- do YOU know a 6 year old that's so conscious?! Gosh, i could just eat her she's so cauuuuuuuute!






And Yes, oh yess.. they were SUPER delish- and gone in 2 days!



Random Catch- up

This Little Muffin loves ANYTHING of sissies!!! BUT- one thing in particular- - her undies! Check it out, she has 4 pairs on, and one in the hand. she KILLS me! At church a few weeks ago, the theme was Pirates- So, we dressed
this little princess up. I *KNOW* MAC cosmetics would be proud of my over.the.top girl who loves posing for a picture- notice her right hand is a hook?! ;)


Last, but NOT least- i took my lil muffin on a Sushi lunch date last week.
she REALLY wanted to use her chop sticks, but gave up and started using her hands-
little side note, wont go to THIS place again- it cost me $35 dollars for the 2 of us! That's so not budget friendly!










(notice the blackberry next to her?! Ah, a girl of the times)
