Cookie Crazy!

This weekend, and every year before Christmas, my mom and I get together and bake several kinds of cookies to give as gifts for the families I work for and to take to our family Christmas gatherings. This is such a fun time to spend with just me and my mom. A memory I'll never forget and one I'll cherish forever. This year we made probably 10 different kinds and it took us 8 hours to make them all. I was so tired afterwards lol. 

Here are some pics of our day!

My sweet little friends!

I've mentioned before I watch children out of my home. I just love it so much and have such a sweet group of kids. I truly grow so attached and hate when they grow up and don't get to come anymore. Here are the cuties I get to spend my days with and the playmates Mason gets to enjoy his days with!

And so it begins!

The holiday season is here and we are off to a slow start. I'm such a last minute shopper and on black Friday we purchased the boys big gifts and that's all I've gotten so far :/ But we got a good deal on both things so I'm happy about that!

For Mason we got him a power wheel that he is going to love!

                                                                               
As for Landon, well a few months ago he dropped his most favorite toy in the toilet (dont ask why he had it in the bathroom) his nintendo 3DS. So he's getting a new one!

So even though this is all I've bought I think I'll have two very happy boys!

Tis the season!

I've been crafty this week and made myself, my mom and my sister a Christmas wreath and a table runner! They turned out adorable.

Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice!

I'm so excited to be getting a niece and to be shopping for a girl. They are so much more fun to shop for :) But even more fun is to sew for a little girl, and I've already been at work! Here are some adorable burp clothes I've made for her! They are made of flannel and are so soft and will make great and fashionable puke catchers lol!

Happy Halloween!

Hope everyone has a great time trick or treating! Stay safe!

Pumpkin Patch!

This weekend we went to the pumpkin patch with my mom, sister and my nephew Jackson! We had great Fall weather and had a really fun time. We fed goats, road a roller coaster, train and barrels. We also climbed bails of hay, played in a huge box of corn and went down a huge slide! Then after the pumpkin patch we went back to my Mom and Dad's to let the boys paint pumpkins and have chicken noodle soup! It was a great day!

Sam's Super Man Birthday Party

This weekend was my nephew's 1st Birthday Party and I was asked to make his smash cake and cupcakes. The theme was Superman cause his daddy is a fanatic! Sam loved his cake and didn't hesitate to dig in!

Masons 2 year stats!

He is 22lbs 4oz which is the 5th percentile and he was 32 1/4 inches tall which is the 25 percentile. Such a little guy! Dr did ask us to pump him full of calories to help him gain some weight. He is developing fine and right where he needs to be on fine motor skills! Poor guy had to get two shots but as soon as it was over he was fine! So glad he's healthy!

Mason's Pirate Party

Masons 2nd birthday party was sooo fun! The pirate theme was a hit and the kids had a great time! I always make my kids cakes and this one was so fun and turned out so cute! Here are some pics from his party!
