Welcome to my first Tutorial Tuesday! I’ve been thinking about how I want to proceed with this. I could completely rehash the tutorial and show you step-by-step. I could just show you the finished product. …or I could do a little bit of both and a little bit of neither. That’s what I will do. [...]

I am one hot mama.
Ha! I wish I looked in the mirror and felt that way! Honestly, though, I have discovered that I am learning to be happy with my body. I’ve never been smaller than a size 10, and that’s while playing softball and cheerleading. My entire life I’ve moaned and begrudged the fact that I wasn’t “tiny.” [...]

Snow Day Project – Birthday Banner!
I’ll admit– I’m both sad and excited for my little Bluebelle to turn one. I’ll also admit that I feel a little like a bad mama. I don’t write her monthly letters or anything like that. I don’t plan on making a huge production for her first birthday. I’m sometimes afraid that she got a [...]

The Motherhood Club

Mommy-Blog post: The C-Section Debate
Yesterday, we welcomed a sweet little addition to the family — my cousin gave birth to a 7 lb, 20.25 in long baby boy. I can’t wait to love on him! Three babies in 2010 – yay! My cousin did beautifully. She was able to convince her doctor (same as mine) to induce ON her [...]

I am a neurotic mess! Seriously, I’m crazy.
I am laughing at myself this morning while I am panicking. Yes, I am excited that there will be 20 people here TOMORROW. I am excited to play hostess. I have been cleaning for 2 weeks. I am going to move Christmas decorations in the spare room today while it’s warm so I can put [...]

A fun & easy craft – Baby Legwarmers!
I’ve decided to share a SUPER easy craft I’ve been into lately: Leg Warmers!! I love and adore leg warmers. 1. They are super cute. 2. They keep little legs warm. 3. They can be layered under summery clothes to get more use out of them. 4. They make diaper changes SO much easier. I’m [...]

Friday Five
This is a sleep-deprived Friday five. So, I’ll be brief. 1. My little turkey had her first day at the fair! She was SO good! On that note, can I brag a bit on how good she’s been this last week? (Yes, I’m knocking on wood now.) 2. We traveled to the Longview/Nacogdoches area last [...]
