crafty!!!

Okay so one of Zachs friends is having a baby so here is my creativity at work and a fun baby gift for all of you to try!!!
First head over to the paper factory in pasco and pick out a great box!!!

Then I typed up and picked out 6 things I couldnt live without and preceded to fill the box!

Here are the items:1-tummy drops, 2-aveeno lotion, 3-gap socks, 4-JJ cole diaper cady, 5-memory book and 6 a hand me down comfy blanket!



And here they all go into the box













For a first time mom I think this is a great gift!!

This is hilarious! I didn't take photos, but my girlfriend is having her first baby and I made her an "emergency kit"... bought a clear bin from Target and filled it with diapers, wipes, cream, garbage bags, spare outfits, blankets, clorox wipes, purell and a dreft stain treater pen~ everything I've ever wished I had when I've been out with the boys away from home. Great "favorite things" box!
I wish I had more time to be crafty for me, too.

When it rains.....it pores:)

So here I am visiting the great town of wenatchee- great friends good family and two children! A two year old and a 6 week old. Never have I traveled this far ( 2 1/2 hours) by myself with them and the trip there- fantastic!! Well on the way home I was stopped by a road crew blowing up rocks- 20 minute delay- okay, so we wait the twenty minutes. We pass the flagger and of course it has been 2 hours since I fed the newborn so its time to eat she screams- we make it to the rest stop and POW its closed, so we pull over! Then in the middle of feeding my two year old yells POTTY MOMMY, POTTY MOMMY- great- I say. So I give her the option to go outside- NO WAY so I say " lets put on your sisters diaper and just this one time you can go in a diaper" NO WAY aaaaaaaaaaaa- what do I do...well, there is a fruit stand up the road! So we hop in the car, get to the fruit stand and I plead my case- YES they say, you can use the toilet!!!
okay, I think we are good to go...but of course we get behind three truckers!!!
So long story short our 2 1/2 hour trip ends up taking us almost four and we make it home to a loving husband and father and a batch of peanut butter cookies from the neighbor!
I guess there is always a rainbow at the end of a rainstorm- HUH?
