Randomness

Here are some of the things we've been doing over the last 2 weeks or so: Self Inflicted Bangs: This is actually round 2, round 1 was in September. I was bored with my hair and couldn't get to the salon (and I was inspired by samstermommy) so I cut my own bangs and then trimmed them again recently. They actually look decent, when I can get them to cooperate! My Crafty Daughter: This was a pair of jeans that The Monkey used to have; we cut off the legs, sewed them together and added a strap, a snap and a monkey patch (go figure!). Monkey did most of the sewing and picked out the strap fabric and patch. She reallly enjoyed it, and did a good job for 8 years old! Birthday Cupcakes:

The Bear had a birthday and wanted these Daisy cupcakes she saw in a cook book I had. I cut marshmallows in 4ths for the petals and put an M&M in the middle. They may not be the Martha Stewart cupcakes my mom makes for birthdays but they are still cute!


New Park:There is a new park near our house so while the girls were in school I took The Baby (I have a REALLY big Baby!!) to check it out. There are lots of things to climb - which he loved - as well as a large sandplay area and a few swings.


So, that's our story...

Doggy First Aid

My poor Bear, he has cracks in his paw pads and he wasn't walking very well, so I busted out the Neosporin, gauze and tape and fixed him right up.



Too bad it didn't last very long...but he's doing better now so it was worth it.
