Smart Bottom Kids
When I find something that I love, I feel compelled to share it with others who may love it too. While messing around the other day, I ran across an Etsy store called Smart Bottom Kids (and with a name like that you know it has to be good right?) The shop owner, Darcy, puts Finish reading this post…

Sound bites
**I have been off sugar two and a half weeks and it has been amazing. AH-Maaaaaz-inG! God is totally in this because no way would I have been able to turn down molten chocolate brownies over at a friend’s house under my own power. I can’t really say what health benefits I’m experiencing, as nothing Finish reading this post…
Raw Milk!
But first a few bits of randomness: Every time I think the phrase “raw milk” I hear Gollum saying “rrrrraw and Wrrrrrrrrigggling”.

Things I don’t really need

But lately, it’s been fun stuff!! Like this light over my table. Isn’t it super fab? I’ve been wanting to replace the old light over the Finish reading this post…

Britt of 4 Little Men and Girly Twins is having a delicious giveaway. And I don’t mean edibly delicious. I’d tell you about it, but then I might not win.

Make Your Own Paper Dolls
This was a super easy (although a bit time consuming) project. I copied and pasted doll bodies from Making Friends. Using pictures of Aviana and her friend Kaitlyn, I used Photoshop Elements and Publisher to put their heads on the doll bodies. Then I copied and pasted the specific clothes I wanted, and printed it Finish reading this post…
Improvements
We’re all doing better around here (all the delicious brownies people have been bringing are contributing to that, I’m positive). In fact, I’m nursing at the keyboard, something that would have been unthinkable a few days ago. The girls are doing better too. There are still some kinks like whinyness and disobedience to iron out, Finish reading this post…
