New shoes and DIYs

I always have fun doing creative stuff, however usually I only make one of something, and like it too much... so I don't sell it. I really need to get out of that habit!! I was feeling SUPER ornery yesterday, and realized last night that I really needed to do something creative. I get that way--it's like a weird addiction!


Anyways, I found this AWESOME lady's blog: The Glamourai, and made that DIY necklace (plus a bit of change) last night. I'm wearing it right now, and I LOVE IT. Maybe I'll make more and sell them?

I've been patiently awaiting the shoes I ordered the other day in the mail, and they came today... SO LOVE THEM!! They're from a website called Urban Originals, and they've got much more to choose from than a local store; plus their prices are decent. I'm STOKED to wear them!!



I've been adoring Rihanna's hair for a very long time, but I think I am really done with short hair. (Of course, I'll say that, and then I'll see something I really love more than long hair and chop it in the middle of the night!!) Here's to hoping I can grow it out finally!!!

Went to the midwife's place today to make sure the baby is growing well, and she's a chunk!! She's already 10 lbs 2 oz, and that is AWESOME!! This means that her frenulum clipping made a difference, and she's getting PLENTY to eat!! Yay!! She's got scarlet painted nails on, of course!!

Jason got a sizeable grant to attend SLCC, and started on Monday. He was able to pick himself up a shiny new MacBook with the extra, and that's good--he'll need it for all the classes he's taking. His eyes glaze over when using it, that must mean he likes it!! It was his birthday last Friday, and we had a really fun Birthday Weekend... Birthdays are over too quickly. So, we made mini cupcakes, made paper crowns, and just had fun being lazy and spending time with eachother before the weekend was out. I'm SO grateful for him--he's WONDERFUL!!

Hazel is doing well, too--she's currently asking me to go to the D.I. right now... "D.I.!! D.I.!!" She decided she was ready to potty train the other week. Not the best timing, but... can't possibly hold her back, just because I have a newborn! And she saw her friend using the REAL potty yesterday, so she won't use her toddler's potty... but that's fine with me!! I don't have to clean it out!!

Kaleid's sporting a fun mohawk these days, and is doing really well in school, though he has lots of free time to be bored... (WHY is it that being bored as a kid is SO HARD?? I'd give ANYTHING to have the TIME to be bored!!)

Hope this post finds everyone well!!
