Christmas Photos

So the little boy I baby-sit for is such a doll and growing up sooooo fast!!! For Christmas, I thought it would be nice to give his parents photos of him at 10 1/2 months. So we put on a studly little man outfit and took a few shots. I created a collage of the photos to show because its so hard to just choose one :O)

After it was all said and done, we wrapped it up and gave it to his parents from him for Christmas.... because of course, he sat there and gave his cutest smiles for me ;o)

Week 27

Baby Project #1

Baby projects had kept me busy for a while as I stressed about the details of the baby's room. I didn't want to buy new items so I decided to 'refurnish' items that we had or ones found at the dollar store.



#1 Taking a cd/dvd shelve and change into book/cd shelf for the baby's room..

Before being painted with the sliding doors off.


Sliding Doors being primed.

TA-DA!!!!! Finished Shelving.



It's supposed to look snowboardish for a boy....
I decided not to go babyish in the room b/c they grow so fast so our 'little man' will not be seeing baby blues and pastely colors.

Pumpkin Candle Holders

The homeschooling group that I've been leading this fall got together and made Pumpkin candleholders. By rubbing some spices on the bottom of the 'lid' it was supposed to smell like baking pumpkin pie when lighting a candle in it. I hope that they got to experience it with their take-home pumpkins. I thought mine would last a few days while I was gone but Matthew came home to only half a pumpkin and a bunch of goo on material. He quickly discarded. Maybe it's the weather difference from back home but we know for next year!!!
