LIttle GIRL gift!

My niece Mercede turned two today!!! We had a fun little birthday party over 

at my in laws house:) Mercade is so darling.... She is the definition of sour and sweet..

One minute she is sticking her tongue out at you and the next giving you a big kiss!!

I love her so much!!! 

I wanted to make her something...and I have been collecting Tys baby food

jars because I knew I could use them for SOMETHING!!!

So anyhow... I got some ribbon/mod podge/paper and made the 

baby food jar a cute gift holder!! 

that I hope can work for holding her little rubber bands/ or whatever 

she wishes!!

Then I needed something to put in the jar...so I got out some of my beads 

and made her some bracelets! I think they turned out darling!!!

They are pink and purple//typical girl right!!

I also made one that is pink with stars...but it seems i forgot to take a picture of it..

:( sad face..it is really so cute!

anyway...she got lots of fun things and her party was a great success!!

I think she loved her bracelets!

she kept taking them off/ looking at them, then putting them back on:)

 such a fun gift! and I really think the baby food jars have endless 

possibilities for gifts!!

ALSO I have been experimenting with a (water mark)???

Tys BOOK continued

 

I seriously start to tear up a bit when I look at Tys first bath picture.

When did he get so big??? I know he is only six months now and when he is like

18 or 30 I probably really will bawl my eyes out when I look at these pictures....

but time really does fly by so fast. I cherish every precious moment of ours together....

my little Tyger man is growing up so fast...

Tys scrapbook in the making

I am in no way a scrapbooker..but here is what I have of Ty's baby book so far..

It has a lot of work left to be done. I need to make a cover...I want to 

put ribbon on the rings...and obviously a lot more pages to do.

I haven't been doing them entirely in order, like I still need to do the 

family at the hospital...grandmas/grandpas.... BUT

As for now here is what I got. You know ill post more as I get errr done!!

:)

xoxoxoxo

PINTEREST...how did i live with out you?

 I seriously don't know how to express my love for pinterest.

I hated bookmarking...No pictures, no organization.

I also don't think Jayson liked me having a million things on the list....

making it hard for him to find his stuff.

No worries now...

I am able to pin all my favorites..

organize them into boards..

see what friends are pinning...

get even more inspiration ...

anyway....can you tell I am on a diet???

obviously all my favorites this week are food!

but they are all so colorful......look yummy....... and fun for summer.

The rice krispy strawberry delight TOTALLY caught my eye,

the frosting looks so pretty and im a sucker for all things strawberry.

SERIOUSLY when I look at the sandwich cookies I cant help but smile.

They are so colorful...also seem pretty easy to make.

The raspberry lemonade slushy...REALLY...need I say more.

Three ingredients..makes life so easy:)

The frozen strawberry squares make my mouth water..

again with the strawberries...gotta love em!

ok so normally I'm not a fan of peeps, but how could you not 

love these colorful smores. They look so fun..

great way to brighten up a camping trip.

last but not least Chocolate-Chocolate Chip Cookies. Holy yummy.

Everything about these look and sounds amazing.
