Baby Lily

Today Wyatt and I got to go over to my best friends Brittney's house and take pictures of her 4 month old baby girl Lily. It is always such a joy to see her, and I look forward to taking pictures of her every month. I could take pictures of her all day, she is such a doll. Thanks Britt and Josh for letting me have fun taking pictures of your sweet little Lily.
She is so flexible! She can put her foot in her mouth!

Baby Briggs

My sister had her baby "Briggs Mack Hunter" on Monday evening, March 21, 2011.
He weighed 6 lbs 14 oz, and is 20 inches long. Kendyl is going to be such a little mother and a big help to Tiffany. Ryker is going to be a great big brother showing Briggs all the things boy do (hopefully not the notty things). I can't wait to meet this little guy, he is my 4th nephew born in the last 4 months. Until I can see Briggs I made these blocks with his name on it for him for when my mom gets up there to see him. Great job Tiff and Chet, he is just beautiful.

Easter Crafts

So here are few of my latest. The bunny was pretty tricky cutting out. I love my Easter eggs tree thanks to dollar tree and the dollar bins at Target. I know I have already posted picture of the eggs, I love the way they are displayed.

St. Patrick's Day

We had our traditional St. Patrick's Day dinner at my mom's house with a few guests. Joining us for the green dinner was Grandpa John, Grandpa Ken, Aunt Cassandra and her cute little baby cousin Carlisle. My mom was the fabulous cook this year making green rolls, green jello, cabbage, corned beef  and per Tysons request we did not make the potato's green (he couldn't eat them last year, being that they were green).
Isn't he so cute!!!

Picking Dandelions

Wyatt was having fun the other day running around in the yard and picking dandelions and blowing them as hard as he could.

Carrot

I forgot to add a picture of the carrot onto the last post. So here it is. To make this you need to dig out some old Christmas garland for the stem of the carrot.


Easter & Spring Crafts

I am having so much fun cutting out my own wood to make my own crafts. The Easter word was a little challenging being that it is all one piece, and is skinny, but it is made with the thickest MDF so it is still sturdy. I not quite done with the chick yet, I think. I want to find some fluffy yellow feather to stick on the top of their heads. I loved making the set of 3 bunnies! They turned out better than I thought they would. I am starting to enjoy working with the wire with crafts. The eggs were really simple to make, cut, paint, glue and glitter! I love the butterflies too (wire again!yeah!) scrapbook paper, paint, glue (modge podge) & glitter the crafting essentials.

Calender Frame

I love the way this calender looks with a frame. I finally found a 12x12 frame at Michaels, and best of all is was 50% off. Now I need to start making the April calender.

Last St. Patrick's Day Craft

I saw this saying on a baby shirt at Target and just had to make this. I thought it was too cute. Now onto Spring and Easter crafts.

Grandma Cookie

Wyatt has a special bond with his Grandma Cookie, he gets to see her often and loves it when she and Papa John come for a visit. They take naps together, walks together, movies together, books together, games together and many more. We are sure blessed to have her and Papa John in our lives. We love you Grandma Cookie!

The Park with Molly, Dani & Baby Jack

Today Dani, Molly, and baby Jack met us at the park for lunch and fun. Molly and Wyatt were running all over the place climbing on the jungle gyms like naturals (even though they were on the 5 to 12 year old one). I just love watching these two play together, they sure love one another (look at the last picture). Baby Jack is just adorable! It was a great day at the park.

Hunter's Craft

Hunter has been watching me do my crafts and told me that he wanted to do a craft too. So this is what we came up with. Hunter painted the 2x4's white and then he sprinkled glitter on them (that was his favorite part), and then using the cricut we cut out some shamrocks and he glued them on with the hot glue gun (and a little help). Then we add some ribbon and sparkly green wired garland. He is very proud of what he made. He is going to give these to his 2 favorite teachers.
