My Funny Monkey

Time to link up with PMM and talk about my kiddos.  Yeah, like I need an excuse.

First off - no Baby Girl yet.  I was really thinking yesterday that I might be headed to the hospital by the end of the night.  But then - nothin'.  Which is totally okay, because guess what I haven't done?  I haven't made this baby girl a single hairbow!  That's what I'll be doing today.

But today I'm telling you about my OTHER baby girl.  My Monkey.  Seriously, this girl cracks me up.  The stuff she comes up with is just too much sometimes.

A few weeks back she climbed into the car after school and was just beside herself.  "I lost my tooth today," she said.  And then bursting into tears she added, "and then I REALLY lost it!".  When I asked her what she meant she told me that she had taken it out to recess to show her friends, and she lost it.

Later that night, Hubby came in to show me what he had found in place of her tooth:
Side one

Side 2

We were dying.  And how could the tooth fairy deny that?  So she was still compensated, even though she lost her lost tooth!

A couple of Sundays ago the girls brought home a spotlight paper to fill out from Primary.  Monkey took it upon herself to fill hers out on her own, without waiting for us to help her:


Seriously?  The girl has never had Sushi.  And I guess it is a sad reflection on Hubby's and my parenting that the most exciting thing that has ever happened to her is turning six.  I guess we'll have to work on that.

She never ceases to make us laugh.  And that is such a good thing because on those days when you just want to cry - a funny six year old girl can turn it all around.  We are so blessed to have her as part of our family.

Hand Made for Fall - A party and a Giveaway!

I've been a busy girl! I have been wanting to do a giveaway for Fall, and when my fab friend Heidi revealed that her Monthly Craft Challenge for October would be Fall-themed crafts, I thought "YES! I will do a giveaway of Fall items - handmade by me!" So today I'm linking up with Heidi , and introducing my Handmade For Fall Giveaway as I show you what I've made for Heidi's party ! Sound good? First, a while back I showed you some coasters that I made, but it was clear back when I first started blogging, so I'm going to show you again with this new seasonal set! This idea has been floating around blog land, and I've seen several different variations. Here's how I do it. You will need: paper napkins, 4x4 ceramic tiles, 4x4 cork squares, MOD PODGE (what else?), sponge brushes (not shown), and polyurethane (not shown). Start by cutting your napkin down to a manageable size, slightly bigger than your tile. Next spread a layer of mod podg onto the t...

Called To Serve

Detroit, Michigan.  That's where my boy will be serving for the next 2 years.  Perhaps he won't be right in the city the whole time. Perhaps he won't spend any time in the city at all.  But the Michigan, Detroit mission is where he has been called to serve. I don't think it has completely hit me yet.  It's not really possible to comprehend the reality of Kaden being 1,600 miles away for 2 solid years with only written contact except for the 2 times a year he will be able to call/skype home.  Like, I literally can't imagine what it will be like or how it will feel.  I'm sure it's going to be hard at times, that I'll miss him like crazy and just want to hear his voice.  We've always had a close relationship and we talk about anything and everything.  It's hard to imagine only speaking in person 4 times over the next two years. But there is absolutely no place I'd rather have him be, and nothing else I'd rather have him doing than ...
