Holidays and Birthdays Galore

Ahh, being a mom of two young ones.  Nothing is the same these days.  I used to tackle spring cleaning in one week.  After the first born it turned into one month.  It's going a little longer these days.  This is the first year that I don't exactly have a plan in place.  I do what I can when I can.  So far I have organized a few cabinets, dusted a few baseboards, and even cleaned the bathroom!  Spring cleaning has been put on hold this past week, though.  It was finally time to decorate some Easter eggs this past weekend.  We also celebrated my husband's grandmother's 83rd birthday.  This of course led to some Pinterest love where I finally got to use some of the children's crafts projects!

Here is the cutest art project to keep some amazing memories of your little one's hands and feet.  Who would ever want to forget how tiny they once were?  Of course, my three year old's feet are beginning to look like grown man's feet and I think we may need to stop this soon!

And who could resist, I had to post some pictures of the little ones on Easter!

My Journey With Photo Editing

About a year ago I found a great photo editing site named Picnik.  Many of you have heard of it and surely fell in love with it as well.  Unfortunately, Picnik is closing it's doors.  The creator is going to be putting his time working more with Google Plus and Picassa.  I am sure I will fall equally in love with Picassa...but I sure will miss the ease of Picnik.  I am especially getting spoiled now with having FREE access to all premium features.  Be sure to check Picnik out.  It is closing on April 19th...but until then you will have free access to all premium features.  Needless to say I have had a blast the past few days editing some of my favorite pictures.  Here are just a few.




Photography is one of my passions, and being able to take two things I already love (photography and my kids) and mix them together...nothing is better!

My New Fascination: H & M Kids

I don't know what it was that kept me away from checking out this store recently.  Before they got a kids section I was a little hesitant of their women's clothing because sometimes to me, cheap prices = cheap clothes.  I have to say though I have been presently surprised.  I have still steered away from the women's clothing because I feel the clothes are a little too snug fitting...but this does inspire me to get more toned.  The kid's clothes....too die for.  You can't beat the prices and some of the designs are so original.  So although N hasn't outgrown his summer clothes from last year, L could use a few outfits that aren't hand me downs.  So, out shopping I went.  Here are some of the finds on my trip.


 This top reminds me of a top I saw at Mini Boden for 24.99.  This one here, 6.95!
