Happy weekend everyone!!

happy.

ive realized that doing things that make other people happy, is what makes me most happy.

like...

-making a meal for new parents so they can put there time elsewhere besides cooking
-sending pictures in the mail
-giving away free stuff on my blog (which i plan to do again soon!)
-letting a neighbor have a stamp so she doesnt have to load up her 3 kids (age 2 and under) and go to the store
-writing thank you letters
-loaning my maternity clothes (a lot of which is handed down to me) so someone else can enjoy them
-having sales and specials over at MP
-playing with playdoh, coloring, drawing with chalk, and reading books.... all day long
-saying thank you for the little things (and the big things)

quick pics.

quick pics before the weekend is here.

smiles for daddy.

drawing people now!!

and the best for last...

i like to call this the 'hockey halter top' by lilly.

(if you dont know what shes wearing, you don't need to!)

if only she knew she wouldn't be wearing it.

she will love us when she's older :)

ive been tagged

jen m. tagged me along time ago...

These are the rules…. each player starts with 7 random facts about themselves on their Blog. People who are tagged need to blog 7 facts about themselves and post the rules as well. At the end of their blog list 7 people you are tagging. Let them know that they are tagged by leaving them a comment. (not sure if i'll get to that!)
