Peek Upload Day

It's the 31st and that means new layouts uploaded at Peek. The theme this time around is "Tools". Scrapbooking tools that is...MM Tag Maker, BG Notch Tool, etc.


I used the MM Edge scraper on the mat for this layout. Loved using old BG, too.



BG Notch and Die tool.

MM Instant Setter

What does your heart say?

Apparently, mine and Daddy's say "boom boom, boom boom, boom boom, I love you, boom boom, boom boom". While Trenton's says, "boom boom, boom boom, boom boom, poopey, boom boom, boom boom."

See, he's going through this poopey stage. Every thing is poopey. He's five. He's a boy. What else can I say?

Finally, some pics

Here are the pictures I was trying to post the other day.

Baby Kat dressed herself that day. She picked out the flower pants and then pulled out the "Wiggle Wiggle" shirt. Then, she even put them on all by herself!!

"I did it!", she squealed in sheer delight. Here's a picture of her doing her "Super Special Tricky I Did It" dance moves, complete with her tongue sticking out.


I like this picture of Trent on the playground equipment. It's a space shuttle, if you don't recognize it. I thought it would make a great new banner for my blog, but I still really like the one of Trent waiting for the golf ball to come out of the pipe. That's what he's doing in the picture if you ever wondered.

And finally, here's Baby Kat. There's ice cream all over her face and a little booger in her nose, but I don't care. I still like the picture.

M&M Cheeseburgers and other stuff

I've been neglecting my blog AGAIN. It's kinda easy to do. I did try updating a couple of days ago with some pictures I took, but it seems this place was having issues or something.

Dinner at my house is always a battle unless we're having chicken nuggets or pb&j. Tonight we had vegi-burgers. At first, the kids were all excited that we were having "McDonalds, but the home version", but soon their excitement faded away to whines and cries. We threatened that they weren't getting dessert, but it didn't seem to matter. For some reason, a thought came into my head, "I'll put M&M's on their cheeseburgers!"

It worked. The kids ate bite after bite of their cheeseburgers with an M&M on each huge bite. I'd kinda put the M&M off the edge of their burger so they'd have to take a decent size bite to get it.

Of course, I realize I'll have to come up with something different tomorrow. Uh oh.

Darn it, I still can't get pictures on. I'll try tomorrow.

Lots of NEW STUFF

Oh, where do I start??

First DML has a brand new site! It's so purdy...go check it out. Here's a couple of my layouts from there:













You can check out the others here.

It was also upload day at Peek.

Here's my additions:













How did so many of these end up being on Ms. Katrina? I don't know exactly. Maybe it's because Mr. Trent refuses to pose for me 98% of the time.

ALL the 3 Scrappy Boys layouts are of Katrina. I picked the girly kit.














Thanks for peeking. :)

The Sponge Bob Position

Well, the kids have been driving me absolutely nuts all day today. They haven't stopped fighting, crying, arguing, whining, etc. Every time Trent has something, Katrina is all of a sudden interested in it and has to have it. Same thing with Katrina. Every time she has something, Trent is suddenly interested.

My last resort was to threaten to call Grandma. Grandma suggested that I teach the kids the Yoga Sponge Position. We decided to get the kids interested we would call it the Sponge Bob Position.

When I said to the kids, "Let's do the Sponge Bob Position", oh they were all over that.

So, imagine the three of us laying on the floor. I'm talking and trying to get them to relax and all of a sudden, in a very quiet room, somebody farts. Then there's giggles and Baby Kat says, "I toot." I tried to ignore it, but that did no good. She sits up to see Trent giggling and decides that this is a prime nursing opportunity. There was no more relaxing under the weight of the water after that.

Our Sponge Bob Position lasted about 15 seconds, but it did seem to work. They are now sitting on the couch, watching Simpsons and I've been able to type this without any interruption.

Oh, and Erik is coming home with a bottle of wine for me!

Friends

Erik made this today.
