My kid just called me a scallywag. I'm not sure whether to aw that up and high five him, or to give him a time out.

You and Mila are both adorable! I love your outfit.

I finished my last freelance project today before the baby! I'm going to take a 2 month break after she's born too and then see if I'm ready to jump back in.

I made silhouettes of my students today! I love how they turned out! I am going to mount them on cute paper and frame them for Mother's Day.

[irishsara]

[kdrake8]

Thanks! They were so easy!

I took photos and made sure their head was at the top of the frame and it went down to just below their shoulders. I printed 5x7s of them on card stock and cut around the features very carefully. I painted the backs of them (so I could easily turn them over and figure out which kid it was) with black tempera paint and a foam brush. I did two coats today and will see if I need to add another coat on Monday. I am going to cut scrapbooking paper and have the kids pick which print they want their silhouette mounted on, and then frame them!

PS...I had so much fun trying to guess who each kid was! Some of them were super easy and others were tough. It was a fun game!

Caleb's birthday cake!



Quite the improvement from Abby's third birthday cake, the first time I tried to make a character cake. I used melted frosting:

I made two almost perfect loaves of bread today. High altitude baking is no joke, and for months my bread has ended up with holes in the middle or flying crust issues or a list of other problems. I FINALLY seem to have gotten the issues solved! Happy dance!

We went to the mall today. Natalie made her first Build a Bear (she named it Baby) and Nolan had his first ride on the merry go round.

[TrudyCampbell]

I love those steph196!

I am so proud of Ruby, guys. She is saying mama/mommy, dada, bubbles, go, hi, bye, mwah! (like for a kiss), yum and a few others. I could cry with relief. She also will try to pronounce a lot of words after you say them. Yay!

She's also a full time walker now and I should say a full time RUNNER. oh my gosh.

Omg @tambcat e is a genius! I tried to get william to stack rings and he did try to get one on, failed then threw it away In a rage lol

Luke has been smiling and I love it so much! Lily was the first person to make him smile and it was on her birthday. Also I think his reflux medicine is really helping him, I don't want to jinx it but he's doing a lot better.

Yay! Good job, H! Though, I've got to say, holding her hand on the beach and her squealing "Oh my dosh!" at the waves was absolutely adorable.
