Early morning

Today was the first morning since day light savings time that my child has woke up earlier then 8am and its killing me! I know most children wake up at 7am or earlier but I am truly blessed, Cody on average sleeps in until 8:30-9am. I should re-think having another child someday because I know the next one is going to be a little terror because I had it so easy the first time :)


Life has been very busy these last couple weeks. It seems like i always have something going on! I really love having the free schedule though, so much less stress and I'm getting so much more done now :) One thing I'm finally getting used to is that no matter how much I clean my house will always be messy, not dirty, but messy. Even if I walked behind cody with a trash can and vaccum cleaner he would still leave my house messy.

Recently Circuit City went out of business and I snatched up an awesome Nikon s52C digital camera. I needed a little portable camera that took really good pictures so I didn't have to worry about ruining my SLR. I am becoming more and more amazed with the awesome pictures it is taking. I will leave you guys with a photo of Cody at the zoo. I hope the weather is great where you are.

Enjoying my time off...

So it has been 3 weeks now that i have been done working and I must say its very odd. I thought I would totally love having the free time, but honestly I don't feel like I have free time. In the 3 weeks that I have been off I have had 2 honest "ME" days where I just enjoyed my day. The rest of my days have been consumed with errands, cleaning the house and spending time with Cody and my mom. I can't really complain though because I really love that I get to enjoy my life. I miss all the wonderfull ladies I worked with though :(

Ok on to something a little bit more fun.... I created two really cute cards tonight. I used the new stampendous rubber cling stamps for the sentiment and The older laundry line by My Minds Eye. They turned out super cute. I didn't embelish them too much because I wanted a crisp clean look.

Now I'm off to bed good night everyone!




Easter and Tigger











As you can tell I have been very busy crafting.... Did I mention that I love Easter? In the past we haven't really celebrated holidays to their full potential but now that Cody is here it seems like my family has a reason to celebrate the holidays and I love it.
I decided to use my favorite Tigger diecut on the pooh cricut cartridge to create a Hershey nuggets pouch and a cirle tin. I used fun spring/Easter colors and some glitter paper for the eggs.
Besides crafting I have been cleaning my house like crazy! Ricky and I have decided to move into a place that is much less expensive now that I am not working full time so that means we will be showing the townhome. The only thing I don't like about that is that I have to clean!!! I am now completely aware of how messy my family is, not to mention there is not enough space for all the stuff we have! I really don't know what we are going to do when we have to down size. Oh well I am so much happier now that I am job free and getting things in my life done that I needed to. Plus when we move the community we are moving to has a pool so I plan on being super tan this summer/ or should I say looking like a lobster???
Well kids I really need to finish up burning cody's pictures to cd's and get a quick work out in. I really should have worked out earlier but this is my punishment for being bad today. Could there be a worse punishment besides cleaning???
