where have you been all my life????

Well, not that I have a huge following but for my ONE follower...SORRY!  So many things have been going on its hard to remember to write about it, or even remember to brush my teeth JK.  SO my creative juices are back...which make me ooooooo so happy.  I have been working on our little bundle of joys room for awhile now.  Found a cheap crib and painted it (not me) remade some BAD handmade bumper pads, found some other cute ones at a garage sale, got an old dresser from a family member (NOT free :(....).  Working on making some curtains for her room, which will be SO cute once I'm done...pictures are always nice but we will see how far I get on that one.  maybe if I had a good camera and knew HOW to take them....I mean, yeah I know how to take a picture, you push the button...I'm talking making the said picture look good..not just a blurry mess.  Back on track, found some cute old framed floral pictures at some flea markets around town for her room as well.  Trying to have a girly room without doing it all in pink too.  Its crazy how color coded things are for boys and girls.  When you start looking for something for a girls room its always in pink, I like pink but really?  Pink?  Pink this, pink that, pink whatever the heck that is....enough!  So we have of course PINK, yellow, white, blues, orange, and whatever else matches in there. 

On other parts of the house we have done some rearranging and ripping out of useless counter top space.  Now I have a little nook for a table and chairs IN the kitchen!!!!  Wahoo for being a pest!  My poor hubby had enough of listening to me ask "so have you thought about my idea?"  Hey a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do, ya know?  Found a cute little oak drop leaf table for $25 and 3 chairs for $7 each!  Now that was a find!  My house looks totally different now, living room has been moved around, no dinning room any more, made that into a sitting area.  SO FUN!  My sewing room is now in the laundry room, Jeremiahs room is moved around and taking on a big boy feel.  Pretty soon we are going to have to start thinking about potty training and big boy beds....YIKES!  I mean yippee for growing big and strong but yikes for mama and potty training, um, how do you do that again?  I had a hard enough time with my dang dog...this is a kiddo!  Lots of prayer...and starting now just to make sure He gets the hint that I need help. 

Got a fantastic looking garden...I say fantastic because I love it, and the walkers seem to love stopping and looking at it daily.  I even yell thru the window at them to come in and see it.  (no one has yet to take me up on it, they must think I'm nuts yelling at them thru the window)  So far the only thing I have eaten out of it has been a cherry tomato...BUT that is one tomato more than the squirrels...ha ha...boobie trapped the tomatoes and you can't get em (sing the "nah nah naboo boo" song as you read that, makes more sense).  Guess thats all for now....hope to not take so long between posts!
