So there you go! Super fun right! I would love to know about you! Pick a question or two and answer them!
Today will be fun,I am working on better pictures for the blog and super excited to improve them! I also am hoping to get some crafts done to share with you guys!! Valentines day is coming and that is a fun holiday to decorate your home for! Wish me luck, many days, I have a checklist that does not have many things checked off! But.. I am trying to remember that these days are fleeting and already Hinckley is growing and not a tiny little newborn!
Answer for the last question of the day: Our tooth fairy has forgotten to come quite a few times over the years, for many reasons! A few times the cats probably scared her, one time kids stayed up way too late, or if they did not have it in the tooth fairy pillow! :) But she always came the next day. She never missed two days in a row!
Todays Question:If you could travel anywhere, where would you go?
I will see you guys again soon! Please comment and feel free to ask any questions you have… a recipe you would like to child care questions, to what do I do, anything!! I really do love hearing from you!
SMILE BOOK:
I deep cleaned my room, first time since Hinckley was born. Felt so good!
Played games last night with the family, everyone went to bed a little late, but WORTH IT!
Mike is trying a new organizing technique. excited to see if it works!
The sun is rising earlier!! Spring is coming soon, I know it!
I am starting to get better at throwing things out. Instead of feeling like I need to save everything!
