Lollipop Love

Oh the sweeeet taste of your very first lollipop!

Skyler spent a very quiet half an hour sucking on this lollipop like we'd take it away at any moment.  She had so much drool we had to put a receiving blanket under her chin.

What's your fave candy?

peek-a-BOO!!

We spend tons of time at the park and the kids always find a new way to play with the same equipment.  On this day, the rock climbing wall became a great place to play peek-a-boo!

I used some more of the mesh that came covering my hot dogs again!  Loving the texture and dimension it adds to a page.

What items are you reusing on your pages?

Captain Adorable

This picture is adorable, but Snuffy still wishes to remain anonymous so you only get to see part of it.  How sweet is my little boy in his Daddy's arms?.....................THE SWEETEST!

I have been reading a series of books about Superheros so this page just naturally fell together in that light.  Lucius's hat says "Captain Adorable" on it.

Who is your fave superhero?  I think Wonder Woman rocks!

I'm Gonna Kill Auntie Linda

Yup, only Aunties get away with buying your kids colored bubbles!Check out the MESS!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaa!

Tentative at first... 

looks like blood..... 

 bloody fingers....

 one perfect purple bubble.....

 quiet contemplation before pulling out all the grass.......

 messssssss (note: Rayna, is not messy - she cried when the first bloody bubble hit her and ran inside to get cleaned off)

 Yup, letting her pour it out if she wants, then only ONE day of mess..... no repeat performances of this mess.....

 now she's painting her face with it ....ACK!!!

 look at the bloody murder on the wall behind the very proud and STANDING Lucius....

 soooo soooo funny that mommy is freaking out....

Serenity has to get every last drop of the mess out!  Who is messing up your life today?

Skyler's Party

Skyler recently had her 2 1/2 year birthday party!  Poor December baby, it's just easier to have parties on her 1/2 birthday.  That way everyone can attend and it's just about her and not about Christmas too.

The decorator at DQ did this Strawberry Shortcake free hand.  Awesome!

 I created a strawberry patch with balloons.

 Skyler had a choice between party hats and these glasses - she made the right choice.

See how much she loves her "Bye".  I think that's baby talk for berry. 

 Nana reads her a story and Lucius reads to himself in the background.

 Skyler used her chalk to draw and to kill bugs. LOL!

 Look how happy her new ballet shoes make her.

 This is how old she thinks she is.

A woman after my own heart - she loves shoes AND she wants to keep them organized!  Notice the "AQueen" backpack in the background.  She wears it Everywhere now.  Do you love shoes?  How many pairs do you have?

Bullseye

I actually scrapbooked!!!!! 

How cute is this picture? It's the first day of summer vaca for us and everyone is sick except Serenity.  What are your summer plans?  Vaca or stayca?

Paint like Pollock

Sparks to an art studio called 4Cats for their year end activity and it was a blast! We got a Starbucks (Serenity had Caramel Apple Spice and I had Passionfruit Lemonade).

The girls started off tame with a bit of spinner art - they were a bit afraid they'd get paint spattered! LOL

Then they got some paint and it was ON!

The girls went mental, flinging paint all in the air, all over the walls and floors and all over themselves! There was laughing and screaming and such awesome mayhem!

This is what my painted lady looked like when it was done!

Love her grin - even with paint in her mouth!

Here is her back, her hair and her feet!

And this interesting shot is the shot I got when my sweet angel decided to squirt paint across the room right at me! And YES, she did hit me! All up my body, on my face, hair and in my mouth!

She is the one on the left - my little mischeif maker!

This is her finished canvas - How cool is that?  Do you paint on canvas? Do you like Pollock?
