bippity boppity bows

As promised here's my first attemp at bow making. I know, I know, I've got a long way to go. I can't wait till things settle down after the move so I can dedicate more time to it. I'll be sending these out soon, so some of you may receive a little surprise in the mail.

our food angel

This week was our last session with Evan's OT Melissa Rhea (aka Food Angel). We were so sad to have to say goodbye to someone we've come accustom to seeing each week since November. We are leaving Kidnetics feeling so grateful for all the help, love and care that Evan received. He's no eating so much better, and enjoys things that many kids do like, mac-n-cheese, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, chicken nuggets, and spaghetti! He even dips things in sauces. We were at our wit's end, and were so frustrated with the situation. It all happened with diligence, patience, and practice


We'll miss you Ms. Melissa!

blah, blah, blah...

evan, apple, caca, and car are just an example of some of the words we've been hearing from our little joel. evan is constantly talking to him, and so joel responses to his brother. within the babble you can here the words like the ones i've listed above. yesterday while driving home in the car it was so funny to hear the banter between them. one would yell or make a noise of some sort, and the other would repeat or respond. yesterday matt had off, so after dropping off the yukon (again!) at the mechanic we took the boys to the upstate childrens museum. it has three floors, and we spent about three hours there. the water exhibit was one of their favorites, but they also really liked the construction exhibit, and racing exhibit...all things boy. today matt's back at work, and i am without transportation :( but, it's given me time to pack more. i'm still working on the kitchen. i'm about half way done. matt's co workers have planned a dinner at outback tomorrow night, and we are looking forward to some yummy food courtesy of tony & susie...thank you again! to matt's chagrin i order tickets to see both curious george live! at the bi-lo and a day out with thomas the train at tweetsie railroad before we move. gotta get it done before the $$$$ runs out...
i finally made some little girl boutique hair bows last night. i was able to make four of them ranging in different sizes and colors. i'll be sending them to some family and friends with little girls. they are fun to make, and when i get better at making them maybe i can sell them for a couple of bucks...always thinking of ways to sell something!

everything must go!

in an effort to reduce what we move, i am putting up for sale my "sample" diaper cakes.  i have a total of seven available for sale at a reduced price.  we aren't going to have much room for extra storage at the new house, so i've got to get rid of them.  if you live in the area just contact me to make the delivery arrangement, so you don't have to pay shipping.  these cakes normally sell for $40 or more, so it's an excellent deal.  they have been kept safely stored in their delivery boxes.  please see my etsy store for the "featured" cake designs.  i would greatly appreciate any referrals too.
