Tomorrow I will be on Studio 5 @ 11am.
I'm so excited and a little nervous!!! I'm so honored that Brooke would ask me to show my bags & purses. I hope you watch and share in my excitement....

Bailey and Cole are now roomies! It has gone better than I expected! they love sharing, thank goodness... I needed my sewing room back.... I now have more opportunity to sew which was really needed.

Hot off the sewing machine! New diaper bag!!




For more information about this beautiful diaper bag visit my website.

I loved Easter, Bailey and Cole had a great time! It was so much fun to watch them.

My dad is really good at finding comic strips that apply to us kids, this is the second one that has really summed up me and Jason!


It's kinda hard to read here is was "Jason is thinking".
"Tomorrow someone will ask me, "how was your evening?" and I'll say, "Oh, same old, same old."!
This is so true at our home!!!!!!!!!!

Bailey always has fun playing!

What a cute family I have!!!

Here are a few more bags that will be featured on Studio 5.

Jason's sweet win!

Tonight Jason, Sherry (Jason's mom), and I went to the Standard Examiners "free" Pinching your pennies coupon class. It was very informative and we learned tons of cool savings and got on the "coupon Savings Plan", which is 5 sunday papers and 1 paper everyday during the week for only $18.99 a month which is a great deal when you can use all those coupons to save you even more money!!!! So we singed up. Also at the beginning of the class they had a bunch of name brand food and hygiene items set out for you to guess how much Misti from PYP paid.....The total with out coupons was $71.00....I guessed $13.00 and Jason guessed $6.10....she only paid $5.73 for all this stuff.



There was only 2 other guys who have ever guessed right....I'm so proud of him for winning and I probably wont live it down either! I think everyone should take this class is was great and I hope I will be able to save like she does!

I wanted to let everyone know that my wonderful brother in-law Scott surprised me with my very own Website to sell my bags. He designed and created it all! I love it and am so happy and touched that he would do that for me. Check out my new store by clicking my blinkie on the right side of the screen. If you want to put a blinkie on your blog let me know and I will send you the codes. Thank you for supporting me!

This is one of my bags that will be featured on Studio 5....I love the material, It can be used for more than just a girl diaper bag! Hope you like it!!!!

I can't believe what happened to me today!!!! Brooke Walker personally called me and asked if I wanted to show case my custom made purses on Studio 5!!!!! I'm so excited, thrilled and scared at the same time!!!! April 22nd @ 11am I will be on T.V live.....holy cow I need to go shopping!

Favorite things!

I wanted to share a few of my favorite things again. I recently went to Clinique to replenish a few makeup items and found some great new products that I love!

This is there new cream blush I love it!!!! You look like you have a natural glow and it lasts a long time. The color I bought is Glow Blush....

Next I found the new cream eyeshadow...I love love it! its so easy to apply and again its long lasting. I bought Rock Violet.

I love to have my hair soft and silky, so I tried the Paul Mitchell Gloss Drops and loved it, you still have great 2nd day hair!!!!

This is my newest craft project! I had so much making this sign for Spring. I still need to glue it all down, but I cant wait to hang it up.....I look forward to making one for summer.....

Bailey was out helping Jason in the yard this weekend, I couldn't resist this cute photo-op moment!


Baliey needed to fix her lawn mower!

OK I think I fixed it!!!!

Diapers off!!!

So its official Bailey is now potty training! She has been wearing big girl panties for 2 days now and is doing really good! the first day we had 3 accidents and yesterday only 1. I'm so proud of her, I got a really good idea from my friend Maurie, she said to put a pull up over the panties when you are in town then she still knows she has them on and you don't have to worry about the accident if it happens. Bailey was dry all day in town and got her first experience of going potty in public.....mom was frazzled by the time she was done! Cole was very curious about what was happening so he wanted to inspect....I had to pull him away from the toilet and hold bailey up at the same time, I'm sure I looked like a fool and the whole bathroom could hear me yelling at Cole and congratulating Bailey at the same time!!!!! I cant believe we are already at this stage....its amazing how fast they grow up!

I just finished A new Diaper bag & Scripture bag! Click on my blinkie for more info.

Funny gas station moments.....

I was at the Chevron round the corner from our home last week, of course I was getting a Coke and Bailey wanted a fountain drink to. so I proceeded to fill her cup with water and she said "NO I WANT COKE"....I said honey Coke is a mommy drink. Well she would not stop saying it, so I told her she could have CLEAR COKE! it was great she thought I was really giving her Coke, little did she know it was WATER! Its amazing how kids pick up on what your habits are!

Bailey with her beautiful smile!

Cole 1 years old!

Loving brother and sister....

After

Before

Cole's Birthday cake! I know the writing looks messy, but i was using a crappy frosting bag. Aren't boys messy anyway!

My sweet birthday boy.

HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY COLE! WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!

Bailey was a big helper this morning!

I have to have it!

It's amazing what you learn about yourself during times of economics cut backs. In our Home we have really tried to take a step back and see what we really need and what is unnecessary. Well with that said, I personally have learned that I CANT live without certain facial items!!!!! I love clinique facial products. I have tried to do without a few of them but my face has rebelled! big time...... So off to the store I go to drop a small fortune of my face, well worth it I would say! These are the two things I tried to live without and failed! I would recommend them to anyone.

WII!!!!!!!!

As of today we are the proud new owners of a Wii! Jason and I have wanted one for awhile and thrilled to have found a killer deal on KSL! So its our Valentines Day gift to each other! Now Jason needs to come home from work so we can play!!!!!!!
