Dance class

This week Carys got to wear her costume to dance class. Needless to say, it was pretty dang cute!

Mental Vacation

Hello Fall

Every year I want to make a fall wreath, and I never do it. Well this year is different my friends. I was able to make this baby on a small budget with my trusty glue gun. The wreath was $4, the pinecones $5, the ribbon was $2 and the little owl was maybe $2, all at Michaels. Plus I already had the burlap. Welcome Fall! Now go away 90 degree weather, I am over you.

I got this little W too but it didn't make the cut, I didn't want to over do it.


Martha Stewart is that you?! Well not really, I totally copied one of the wreath ideas here: DIY Fall Wreath Roundup

Last week we went to the pumpkin patch to buy our pumpkins...

Some were less excited about it than others.

6 Months and Solids

Charlie girl just turned 6 months old! Its such a trip how fast these little things grow isn't it? In 6 more months she'll be walking, and talking, and doing long division (almost). She just started eating solids too and is loving it. I also decided to make my own baby food and so far it is super easy. I thought it would be a pain, but it's not at all. If you have time to cook your family dinner, you have time to make your own baby food. Trust me. Plus I am saving money and its fresh. Win!


Still working on my camera's manual settings...as you can see :)


She is happy that her feet are finally touching the ground in this thing


Look! I made this. Glorious carrots.
