I know it’s ONLY preschool and many kids don’t even go … but it just means we are about to enter the next BIG chapter in our lives. Our boys are starting school. He’s not “all mine” anymore. Goodness.. . So bittersweet!

I made this FUN Lo with one of my CT Designer’s latest kit (so YES, I got it free)—Simply.Scraps and Spinky Dink Scraps "turn the tassel" collab at ES

A fellow blogger (and friend from way back in my wedding message board days) posted about doing the Jean/huggies/diaper runway with her sweet Baby Max but I didnt ever click on any links because .. well… I’m busy….and doing a slide show for Preschool and wanna edit pictures for the week in my life thing I did last week ……. and I can keep running this on and on but I’ll stop…..
Anyways …. The diaper Jean runways is just that … Diapers that look like blue jeans
How (rootin’ tootin’) cute is that?
Anyways, it wasnt until today when I was at wal-mart that I saw them and put it all together……….I was already checking out so I didn’t get them, but how fun!!!
The plan is to go back tomorrow
.
P.S. Here is my friend’s blog (Not finding the post …. so maybe she just tweeted about it?!!)

(still don’t have picture uploadingfixed … pics coming soon)
YEs. I got roses for mother’s day … but I also have them permanently in my kitchen now. How you may be wondering?! Well………. That’s what color my walls are!!!! I picked Behr’s Dozen Roses! They made me fall in love with my kitchen. REally. I’ve always like my kitchen but it was just plain. Not anymore. It’s stunning. The red beautifully cooridinates with my baby pink appliances too!
It’s hard to do it justice but you get the idea! One million THANK YOUs to my friend Maryanne for doing all the work for me!

When I had Lucas I had a placental abruption and almost had a uterine rupture. They repaired it and then I was advised not to get pregnant again. Ever. It wasn’t safe.
I was devastated. It felt like my heart was ripped out of my chest. I had 2 healthy boys but I didn’t want my family to be finished. Yes, I was blessed and had more than most women but that didn’t change that I wanted my family to keep growing.
We decided to go see a high risk specialist. That’s why I was so nervous and scared. I was afraid he was going to agree with my doctor and that would be that.
Well. That is not what he said. He said – yes it there were several little things we had to watch for but non of them were things we couldn’t catch early, control or do something about. So. YAY!
I am so happy to know that I can have one more baby. That will be enough. I can decide now, that 3 is enough. There is just something about being told you can’t or shouldn’t do something that drives me up the wall.
My paralysis is enough. I can’t walk. That can’t be changed. This is something I can control. I can decide when I want to be done and when I don’t! That is a good feeling.
Now we decide WHEN to try. Not yet.

My Mother’s Day was wonderful. The boys woke up as usual and we all snuggled in bed for a while; then Daddy took them out so I could sleep in. Around 10 he brought be coffee and a bacon and cheese omelette. It was so yummy. I got a card from the boys and hubby. Will have me the most wonderful bracelet ever! He made it in school just for me. It’s incredible how the little things mean the most?! Isn’t it? He kept saying he wanted to go to the store to get me something else and I had to keep telling him that what he gave me was wonderful enough!
I have another possible gift coming but we’ll talk about that later. It may not be a gift at all, but instead something horrible. . . so I won’t say anything just yet.

My baby is really, truly 2. Wow! Can you believe that? He got lots of fun goodies (including Spike Red, a Leap Frog texting thing and Tag Reader Jr. ) Thank you to EVERYONE that came and gave my baby a gift.

You can buy that Hot Diggity Dogg kit at SSD. (yes I got it for free, because I create pages for Melissa to use in her advertising!)
Stitiching I bought from Traci Reed also at SSD.
