The End of 2010


Around 3:30 last night, the dreaded THING happened. You know the one, in which the precious little one throws up all over everything and you have to do laundry in the middle of the night?

Strip the bed of sheets, pillowcases, mattress cover.

Take off the PJs and wipe the little guy down. All while trying not to dry heave all over yourself from the smell of spoiled milk and what is that...macaroni and cheese? from dinner.

And pray you catch it before it happens one more time because you don't have another set of sheets for the bed.

Even better, you manage to throw the TV remote for the bedroom right into the washer with everything else. Good stuff.

Happy end of 2010. Here's to getting it out of the way for the new year.

  1. Oh dear. I am sorry to hear this. I hope your son is better soon and that the rest of your family doesn't get it.

  2. Funny thing, my husband could handle all kinds od emergencies when he was with the volunteer fire dept. But he could not handle the THING you just described. It was mommy duty all the way!

  5. RIGHT there with 'ya {except for the TV remote part}. And every.single.time. the child pukes in front of me I simply freeze for the first 10 seconds or so, not quite sure if I should help, run, cry, laugh, plug my nose...or what. So I just stand there with my mouth hanging open. God bless you all - and I hope you are 100% soon.

  6. I'm sorry for both of you. Hope no one else gets the bug. Brings back memories that do not give warm fuzzies.

Star Wars Gift Bag Tags

Two years ago, for Walker's Star Wars birthday, I created Yoda tags to attach to the gift bags for the party. Little did I know these bag tags would become so popular on Pinterest! To date, these tags have been repinned almost 500 times!!! So I thought since there's so much interest, I'd add them to my Etsy shop . So now, for just $8.00 - you can receive the file electronically and print them for yourself! I jazzed them up a bit with some sliver glitter puff paint on the light saber and some silver ribbon to attach to the dollar store bags. Print as many or as few as you want! So, if you are planning a Star Wars party, check them out ! And may the force be with you!

Baby Shower Inspiration Boards

I got all excited about the baby shower inspiration board contest over at Sippycups Are for Chardonnay , but only ended up submitting this first one on time. I managed to pull the second together this weekend just for kicks and loved the colors, so thought I'd share here. The first board is call "Nesting Instincts" and the second is "Over the Rainbow". I think I could get addicted to creating these things.
