So not a day goes by that Emma doesn't ask about our stolen bikes. She asks questions like, "Mom, what is that guy's name, the one who stole your bike?" Or "is the guy in jail that stole daddy's bike?" Anyway, tonight she handed me her Dora magnadoodle and said, "Mom, this is a picture of the guy who stole your bike." I burst out laughing and grabbed the camera. And here it is, the guy who stole our bike....so if you see him, let me know. :)
With the start of tax season, I have embarked on numerous projects. The first to be completed, my new scarf. I found it at
this awesome website that has me addicted.
Just some funny pics of our girls. Eating/making a mess with cookies!
One thing I HATE about our house is that the dining area is CARPETED!!! Who does that? Someone without toddlers! So my ingenious husband came up with the idea of putting down plywood and putting purgo flooring over the top. Genius! Here he is hard at work. (Did I mention that we got the purgo for free on Craigslist?-we love it out here, stay tuned for my craigslist post someday, it is a little bit out of control what we have found for cheap or free!)
Do you remember these skates? I loved them growing up. Emma is sure sportin a cute look eh?
And p.s. I am so glad it is February! I hate January. Bring on the lovin, pink, and all my holidays!
This far side made me laugh as I was looking for a good accountant pic. Kevin does not look like this, but our good news is that he passed the CPA!!!!!
This is a chore chart that my friend created. I borrowed the idea and changed it and added a little of my vinyl touch. :) It is magnetic and the girls have magnets that they move down to the solid color when they have completed their chores for the day. (Keep in mind that they are 3 and 1 so I included things like brushing teeth and getting dressed. :) They get a marble when they complete a task and when their jar is full, we get a treat!
This idea I also stole from a friend (like I am creative enough to come up with things on my own...yeah right!). I use recipe cards (or scraps of paper) for my recipes. So now they cannot move while cooking! I also made the star magnets. Aren't they cool? I thought this would be a fun and cheap Super Saturday project. (Which if you do want to do, let me know and I can do the vinyl for ya!). I should also add-Kevin routed the edges for me with his cool new router!
