A little busy...

Hi! :)
I don't really have much to say, I've been soooo busy lately but it doesn't seem like I've done anything very exciting. :) Hmmm...that's a little depressing.
Anyway! :)
Because tomorrow is Monday and I am all about making plans to get things done and trying to keep myself motivated I am going to post a couple of my goals on here. :)
I want to stop living out of my clean laundry basket (note to self, put clothes up!) take some fun pictures this week/weekend, clean my messy scrap desk and pay bills/balance checkbooks. Not too hard, huh? Surely I can find time to get that stuff done. We'll see. :)
Oh yeah, and I got a new haircut this weekend (I have bangs and got about 4 inches cut off!) but I don't have any makeup on and look like a dead mommy right now so I don't want to take a picture. But I will share soon. :)
Have a great Monday!

Playing scrapjack :)

I love the challenge that the girls have up this week at Scrapjacked! :) So much fun.

I kinda like doing a page without pictures once in awhile, just for something different.
So here's my version...

I hope you all had a good weekend. I've been running 102 temp since Friday morning, no fun at all! I really don't even know what I have, I just feel gross. I guess I should go to a doctor, huh? :)

Hi :)

I think I have the prettiest little baby in the world. :) She was in such a happy mood when I was taking these pictures, I love her lots. :)
And my cat Shanga is cracking me up, she's sitting on top of my computer desk staring down at me while I'm typing this, so I had to snap a picture of her. I'm afraid she's getting a little tired of me not having time to devote to her like I used to, she used to be the baby in the house. :) But she's really good with Katie even though Kevin and I had *lots* of people warn us that she wouldn't be.
I can't belive that the weekend is over already! We have been so so so busy lately. I kinda wish that time would just freeze for about a week so I could catch up. :)
I'll post again soon, I'm going to try to do a little bit of cleaning before I go to bed. :)

I'm a happy girl :)

Because my sweet husband bought me a Canon Rebel and Adobe Photoshop today!!!! :) :)
I am sooo excited! I have a ton to learn about both of these, it's quite a step up from my Kodak EasyShare. :)
I've been pretty giddy about it all afternoon, I've actually taken 90 something pictures already! Some family is up from Florida, so I had a good reason to. :)
Here's a few pictures of us from today, I haven't played with Photoshop too much yet but wanted to share.

My husband is the sweetest husband in the world. :) Kevin, thank you soooo much for this wonderful anniversary/birthday present!

I would hang out in my kitchen more...

If I had cutie aprons and towels like these! :) Check out this site...http://www.bunnymaxwell.com/kiac.html

Randomness :)

Hi! :) It's been awhile since I've posted on here! I just wanted to share some random things...the first pictures are from Katie's first time sitting in her high chair :) I love the 2nd one, it looks like she's amazed to be sitting so high up! And the other 2 pictures are from her very first time eating any solids other than cereal in her bottle. She did *so* good, I was a proud mama! :) We fed her sweet potatoes, I read that it's better to start her on veggies rather than fruits so that she would tolerate veggies. So I made a compromise, I figured that the sweet potatoes wouldn't be too bitter for her. And here's a page I made using my new Love, Elsie goodies! :) I had a lot of fun with it, the colors ROCK! :) : )
Oh, and I am so proud of myself, Kevin and I made a decision to start working out to Billy Blanks Bootcamp and so far I've actually done it every time!! (OK, so it's only been a week, but that's a *huge* improvement for me!! Lol!) It's pretty intense, he's a really good instructor, even when I feel like hitting him through the TV when he tells us to do one more set when I feel like my lungs are going to collapse. :) Just kidding.

I'm excited, my Mamaw, Aunt and Uncle and two of my little cousins are coming up from Florida tomorrow! It's been 4 years since I've seen my Mamaw! I miss her. It'll be fun.

Have a great weekend!
