So I started to check into baby wearing since I want to be able to carry the kids around with the option of being hands free, and they are handy for feedings too! After a lot of research, I decided to experiment and make my own ring sling and wrap, and had so much fun! Pictures will soon follow so if you don't know what I am talking about, they will explain a lot. :) I have already had someone ask me about making the ring slings.... thinking about it....
I think I just like creating things; whether it is music or a piece of handy material to carry your little bebe around in...
or decorating a birthday cake with obnoxiously sweet icing...
or using the hedge trimmers to tame a wild barberry bush...
(I could NOT believe how fun that was!)

It's a Birthday!
Mitchell turned 1 on August 30th, and we celebrated in style on September 1st! It was a fabulous bash and a good time was had by all.
The Party Table...(above)And the Birthday Prince (below)
His MiMi calls him "The Prince" so I just had to :)

The cake (the little guy on the cake is supposed to be a character from Baby Einstein)
YUM!!
Thanks for comin' to my party!
Catching Up- The Beach

We Crashed.
What else can I say? Thank you Ft. Walton Beach, Destin, and Panama City FL for a wonderful vacation :)

What's the Deal?
I know, I know! In the first blog I bragged about how I talk too much and that this blog could be a dangerous thing (in a wordy onslaught of random ramblings kind of way) and it has been almost 3 months since I have posted! What can I say? It was a busy but wonderful summer! :)
Our Ohio house closed the end of July after a crazy month of taking loads of stuff to IL and cramming in a roadtrip to FL by way of LA (Louisiana, not Hollywood!) for vacation. We had a wonderful time, and pictures will be here shortly- as soon as I can find my elusive USB cable so I can get the pics off of my camera! I know I can probably get another one, but I am just too lazy. And cheap. Can't forget that one.
Anyway, we are settling into IL life quite nicely and love being near family. We have traveled the 1.5 hours it takes to see Marc's parents almost weekly since we have been here, and they LOVE it! My p's are in heaven with Mitchell here at their house, and my brother and fam are just a quick trip across town away! Oh, and we are closing on our first property in late September- woohoo!
Marc starts school on Tuesday (the day after Labor Day) and me? Well, I am just Pampered Chefin' my little heart out as I debate whether or not to get music lessons going before or after baby comes?!? (due date Feb 8, and no, we don't know the sex yet- I am at week 18 and we have to wait until 20)
Mitchell, the little joy just turned 1 on Aug 30 and we had a big birthday bash for him today (technically yesterday) Again, pics to follow once I find that cable! He tries to say "clock" and today told Poppie (my dad) that the doggie says "woof woof"! They went for a pre party walk in the stroller and he was apparently communicating with our neighborhood k-9 friends. Not walking yet, but that's okay! as his MiMi (my grandma- we don't use traditional names in this family!) says "he's gonna walk the rest of his life!"
Thats all for now- hopefully if you have made it this far in the entry you feel it was worth the 3 month wait. And you will also be convinced that yes, I do talk too much. Or at least a lot.
"I Sleep Now"
(anyone think they can name the movie that quote came from? It's a tough one!!)
-The Deem 3- no 4
BTW- anyone have any suggestions for a new blog name? we aren't 3 anymore....
