Girls are fun!

Having a girl is proving to be way too much fun! Especially in the shopping department. Don't get me wrong, I always loved getting clothes for Jem...but boys clothing doesn't quite have the same sparkle and shine that little girls clothes do! Take for example a recent trip to the mall, to buy some shirts for Brandon. We bought some shirts for him. But not before I plonked down $80 on two cute outfits for Finley LOL. Now that's something I would never have done when shopping for Jem. But the call of baby gap and the cute little pink things and denim things and co-ordinating things...well...it was too much for me to bear. I HAD to make some purchases! Look for yourself...I got this cute little shirt...




...to go with this adorable denim skirt!





And then I fell in LOVE with this cowgirl style dress, matched with this versatile cardigan (don't you love how these words are just spewing out of my mouth LOL). I couldn't pass it up!





Finley has basically been in sleepers for the past 7 weeks...but look at how much older she looks when she's in an outfit! Here's a denim dress given to her by Jane O'Hagen (a fellow crafter friend of mine)...we dressed her up for church and I have to say, I loved her all gussied up!





I can't wait to put her in some of the new outfits I have bought (and yes, unfortunately for Brandon they have multiplied since our previous mall outing).

Pioneer Woman In Town!!!

Ok, so I'm slightly obsessed with the Pioneer Woman , not like a stalker obesessed....but still....kinda obsessed :). I check her blog at LEAST once a day, sometimes more.... because let's face it, she's a rock star! For those of you that DON'T know who she is, let me explain. Pioneer Woman is a lady named Ree, who lives in Oklahoma. The beginning of her 'pioneering' started when this city girl met and fell in love with a real life cowboy. She is now a married to this man (who she affectionately calls Marlboro Man) and they live on a working cattle ranch with their 4 children. So how do I know about her? Well, a few years ago she decided to start up her own blog - you know, like I have - to share information about her little family with friends and family. Again, like I did :). Except for one minor difference - in 3 short years, she happens to have MILLIONS of visitors a month. That's right, MILLIONS of people follow her! Why? Because she's a rock sta...

Day 13: Their Routines...document what it is they do on a regular basis... Jem has a routine that he always follows when he gets home from school. We call it doing his "Jobs". He unpacks his backpack and gives me his daily folder, then unloads his lunchbox. He goes upstairs and gets into his PJ's and puts his clothes away, and then....well then he practices his Piano lesson for the week. Jem has been taking piano since September, and he really loves it. It's not really a chore to have him practice - he does it willingly and happily. I love listening to him play - and he quite likes having an audience ;) At the moment he is practicing 2 songs - the Star Wars Theme Song (his favorite) & This Is Your Land.

Day 11: Dreams... Today I was supposed to photograph something that represented the dreams of my loved one... and while I was prepared to get my camera out later in the day and do just that - something surprising happened :) So let's just say that this post is now no longer about dreams. Sorry. I decided to just go with the flow, and document my 'surprise' instead. What is it, you ask? Hmmm.... well, let's start at the beginning. My husband is away on a business trip. Gone for what, 7 days already? And he'll be gone a while more. He won't be here on Valentine's day, which makes me sadder than sad. Don't ask me why. It's not like we ever celebrate "valentine's day" anyway. But the fact that I CAN'T even if I decided I WANTED TO makes me feel bad. Boy, I really miss my Brandon. This week has gone by very slowly for us. Thank goodness I've been busy, because I imagine it would have been much worse. I'm thankful for my great fam...
