What could it be?

They tell us... it's a GIRL! 



I am good :)

Expect the unexpected!

Well the truth is that I am expecting ...

We are very excited and eager to know who this little being is  and what it is so...I am going against all that I have ever done and I am having an utrasound to find out the sex of this child.  With three girls and one boy already apart of our family it is too hard for me to wait.  We will welcome a daughter or a son with happiness and love.  :)

Favorite things...

One of my favorite things...

There is just somethings that I love about hanging out my laundry in my backyard.  Maybe it is because  I love not using my electric dryer, (saving money and energy is a biggy) or is it the smell of fresh clean clothes coming off the line.  Well, whatever it is--Its one of my favorite things and laundry really is one of my least favorite things to do.  It just is never-ending.  :)

Birthday Invites!

Madi and Syd were invited to a b-day spa party.  They went to a salon with cute tutus that were made just for them, had their nails, hair and makeup done.  It was so much fun.

Thys was also invited to a friend's b-day party.  It was all about Butterflies and Bugs.  I decided to make her an applique t-shirt and matching skirt.  She likes flowers and butterflies so I added a little butterfly to the flower.  The wings move.  It was really fun designing this.  :)

And Ellie stayed home with me...

A little chlorine never hurt anyone...

Over the past 3 1/2 months we have enjoyed swimming at various loved one's pools.  It has been most refreshing to jump into a  pool and instantly be cooled down.  However, Madi and her blond hair have suffered a lot this summer because of the Chlorine.  Her hair has really changed from a beautiful, shinny blond to a dull, dry, distinct shade of green.

Madi with her cousin Derek at Newport.  She's a cutie but notice her dry hair :( and the green ends.

We never looked into it but last week a friend (Megan P) gave us a great tip and we wanted to share it with all of you.  All you need is a can of tomato paste.  It is so simple!  Wet your hair, cover your hair with the tomato paste and let sit for 5 minutes.  Rinse, wash and condition.  And Voilia.  C'est fini!

We did it in the kitchen.  It is rather messy.  But we are very happy with the result.

She has beautiful hair once again.  Thanks Megan :)
