Whoo Hoo!!!

Cam wears a pull up to bed at night. He wakes up soaked. Not just a little - but have a bath do the laundry soaked. He's asked a few times to wear underwear to bed, but I think you understand why I think this is too risky. Two nights ago he asked again and I let him. No bedtime drink, and then I took him potty when I went to bed. The next morning...DRY!!! WHOO HOO!!! Again last night...Success!! I hope pull ups are a thing of the past! (anyone need a bag of size 5 pullups?)

Country Living Christmas


Hi everyone!
This is a take on a card in the catty that I love! There is a scallop under the olive olive paper that you can't really see, but is super cute!
Here are the deets. This uses the new Country Living Holiday Collection Stampin' Kit. (scroll down to see details)

How'd you like to wake up to this?




2 for Cam

All right, I have to admit that my 5 year makes me laugh. Not just smile, but laugh out loud. He is too funny!

I have always been noncommittal on the big debate on whether or not day light savings is a good thing or not. I really don't even know if there is a big debate. It's just always been there. When one of my boys asked hubby why Saskatchewan didn't do the time change, he got "Because it would mess up the chickens." I was impressed someone knew Sask. didn't do the time change.

However, now that I have boys who bus it to school, I'll admit I like the time change. Before it was still dark outside when they left the house, and now it's not! Good enough for me.

My two youngest are out of bed a little earlier in the morning since we turned back the clocks. I don't mind. Back to my five year old...

This morning Cam and Kai came walking into my room at 7 am. My alarm had gone off, and I was getting up, so no worries. I asked Cam if he opened the door for Kai, and got that "Are you dense? Of Course." look that children seem to learn quickly. Last week Kai climbed out of his crib; I was just checking to see if he added opening doors to his arsenal. Cam helped Kai up onto the bed the turned and said to me..."Are you ok if I leave him here with you?" I told him I thought we'd handle it.

After lunch Cam and I were playing this game that he does with his brothers...it's all hand claps and slaps said to a tune and ends with someone getting punched. I just mumble along. About half way through you play a game of rock, paper, scissors. Cam came out with a gun - you know, thumb and forefinger- instead of scissors and sent me another look before he started laughing and said "Where did that come from? "

I tell you, nothing like a 5 year old to keep you young! Love him!

Happy Halloween!




Kai has a hat, mitts and socks as well, but wouldn't keep them on. He was the cutest turtle!
Somehow I didn't get a picture of Cam the Caterpillar. We'll have to take a picture tomorrow.
Noah was dead superman. Why not just regular superman, I don't know. He was happy though.
Ryan pulled the gangster outfit off quite well, don't you think? The glasses were the finishing touch!
~Happy Haunting!

Just give him a box...


You know on birthdays when the child opens their presents and then only plays with the box it came in? Kai reminded me of that when he kept climbing into the freezer bag. He had a great time getting in and out, and eventually Cam even joined him. Funny boys!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Yah! I love holidays! My boys are home and we get to stay in our pj's longer and eat yummy food. I love the smells in my house when a turkey is cooking! What more could you ask for to have a great day?


My wonderful SIL come to visit this weekend and we got some quality time in the stamping room. It was so fun!

Aren't these adorable? The medallion made with the scallop punch is so fun! I love it! The tutorial is on splitcoast right now.
I can't wait to get my Big Shot! So sad they are on backorder, but soon! The top note die is so elegant - quick, easy and so striking. Love it!
I think Baja Breeze, Kiwi Kiss and Pink Pirouette are my favorite in colors. Who am I kidding? I like 'em all!
All I can say is love it, love it, love it!
Bye Leanne, and thanks for visiting!!! Love ya!
