my poopy week (literally)....

ok...my boys have had fun with me the last few days.......

Wednesday Hudson decided to share his stinky diaper with his little brother (see posting below). Last night while giving them their bath, Griffin decided to poop in the tub. Oh yay! I guess he wanted to share a little with Hudson this time. Then..this morning....we woke up to little tiny feet pattering around on the tile. I walked into the kitchen and saw Hudson walking out in the backyard NAKED. He crawled out the doggie door. So fun. He was obviously having a blast. Well, we brought him back in the house, walked in their bedroom, and found his diaper (stinky diaper) in Griffin's crib. At least this time it wasn't smeared all over the place and Griff only had it on his feet & ankles (he spared his face and hands this time).

Sooo...now we're contemplating duct-taping his diaper on him (at least that's what my hubby wants to do). Doesn't that sound fun? Maybe I'll just have to try some pull-ups at night. He takes his pj's off and then his diaper...then who knows how long he's having fun naked before he lets us know he's raring to go for the day. We also can't leave the doggie door locked so our dog can go outside anytime. Oh..what boys we have.

Since it's time for another blog freebie....I thought it was only fitting to offer up an add-on to my Manic Martians kit. I have two patterned papers and a funtabulous Alpha for you.

my lovely morning.....

Hudson decided to have some fun....AGAIN....with Griffin. He acted like he wanted an early nap this morning, so I put both of them in their room. Wellll, about 30 minutes later Hudson started roaming around the house. I walked the boys room and smelled one BEAUTIFUL aroma, found a naked little Hudson, and then went into their room to a scene that I expected. A stinky diaper was shared with Griffin and it appeared like Griff thought it was a great toy to play with. After 1.5 hours of giving them a bath and cleaning their room, it was their regular naptime. Yippee! During their nap, I just HAD to work on this LO. (I, of course, had to snap some pics before any of the clean-up began.)

poor neglected Griffin.....

I just went through all of my postings looking for a LO of Griffin, my 1 yr old, and I just realized that I never posted a single one of him. If I did, somehow I missed them. I'm so bad. He is definitely up at some galleries.

It's show & tell time for him now.

In October my DSC challenge freebie is this fun little kit that I designed, "Team Sparky". I was given these colors to work with and they just happened to fit so perfectly into an ASU inspired one. Something that my husband definitely adores. I hope you all will too. You'll just have to participate in an October Descriptive Word Challenge at DSC to grab it.

Life....live it the best you can!

ok....non-scrappy stuff for me right now......

I happened to read a blog earlier today...one from a "Momma" named Gina. She couldn't sleep last night because she just lost her oldest son to a "horrific skateboarding accident". About an hour and a half later I found out about Jon Moss. Jon finally lost his huge battle with Cancer. He had a beautiful spirit and I'm sure he is finally at peace now. We walked in the Climb to Conquer Cancer every year on Team Moss (except this year since we had two boys under 18 months at that time). Anyway, all day I have been at home with my two youngest sons, but my oldest one, Cooper, is 16 and he lives with his dad full-time in St. Louis. Since I can't call him when he's in school, I texted him that I love him. I know it caught him off guard and he called me as soon as he got off of his schoolbus. He does that most any day anyways, but I just wanted him to get a little virtual hug from me earlier today. Only two more weeks until he's back here again for his next long weekend from school. I can't wait!

Ugh....my little ones are napping right now...I feel like we need to go out and do something ...not just sit here & do something "tomorrow". Sometimes it's a bit difficult to remember to live for the moment because you never really know what is around the corner in your life.

I have a beautiful kit I'm working on. The papers are so smudged and so beautiful, but I wasn't really sure about the direction to take this kit. Now I know. It will be called "Luminous Life". Here's one quote that I will be including as talk (a/k/a word art): Difficult times have helped me to understand better than before, how infinitely rich and beautiful life is in every way, and that so many things that one goes worrying about are of no importance whatsoever...-- Isak Dinesen

Smiles everyone...and PLEASE have a beautiful day!

Two Ta-Da freebies...from me to you...

I decided to make a couple of Ta-Da's ...or as you might recognize them as QPs, quickpages, ploppers...but, to me, they are Ta-Da's...as in 1 or 2 little steps and "Ta-Da" it's done ...just like little kids like to throw their little arms up in the air and say "Ta-Da" when they are so proud of something they've accomplished

both of these are add-ons for my "Hudson & his Airplanes" kit, that is available at DigiScrap Central's Scrap Shop

A Brand Spankin' New Challenge...

Time for a new type of challenge, a Descriptive Word Challenge. I will be hosting a new word challenge every couple weeks at DSC.

Our first descriptive word - SPIRIT

What kind of spirit would you like to celebrate? A child's free spirit? your favorite sport's team? pride in your country? a horse named Spirit? your daughter's cheerleading squad?

Let's see how many interpretations there are.

Please upload your LO in DSC's challenge gallery & then post the link in DSC's Descriptive Word Challenge thread so you can get your prize kit when the challenge is over.

my LO, Sundevil Spirit

update time!!!

wow!!!!!! my "Spunky Stars" sure are popular! thank you soooo much for loving them! Let's see how fast the next 100 links fly away. I updated the link below (it's below the stars preview, you can't miss it).

For all of you new fans, I wanted to share my other available goodies with you. I have 3 freebie kits available at SBB (find them here) and 2 kits for sale at DSC (find them here).

You can also scroll down a bit to find my freebie "Susie Sorority" kit. I think it's still available for a couple more days (unless the 100 downloads disappear faster).

And...... Hudson is back to his usual goofy self now. Yay! It was so scary for all of us (especially him) whenever he threw up. I'm so glad we're through that terrible rough week.

Hudson's 2nd birthday ...freebie for you

My son, Hudson, turned 2 on the 14th so I want to celebrate with all of you. Unfortunately he has been sick for a week now (not a fun b-day week) with Strep. If you don't already know, little kid strep wreaks havoc with the whole body. Today was the first time in a week that he didn't throw up. So, yay to that.

Anyway...back to your freebie ...."Spunky Stars"....I have 30 patterned or smudgy stars in this package, including 16 textured ones....oh, they are all so fun ...as you can tell, half of them are star shaped frames so there is so much you can do with these goodies.

it's FREEBIE time again...

I'm so sorry! I just realized that I don't have a freebie available anymore since my last one just expired. I just cna't have that happen, can I? hmmmmmmm, nope! Sooooo, I'm offering up my "Susie Sorority" kit. It hasn't been seen anywhere before yet. You get it before anyone else. Don't you feel special??? It's the kit that I used to make my blog header. Isn't it a little obvious? "Susie Sorority" has 12 papers (my favorite is the plaid), a Greek Alpha+, lots of tags, & a few other great embellishments. Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

wow....I actually completed a couple LOs

This is the first time that I have made an LO in a couple months.
This first one is with my husband and son, Hudson, sitting in my hubby's old high school Camaro from the early 80s. Right now it sits over at his dads house with a tarp over it and it hasn't been able to run in several years. Jeff can't wait for the day when he can bring it back to life with our two little guys. As for now, every time we are over at their house, Hudson is obsessed with "driving" it with his Daaaa.
