Green Chica Mama

My old friend Ali has come up with a great idea! She is making these awesome custom burp clothes! They are eco-friendly and made with organic materials! How cool is that? Check out her blog HERE! These would make awesome baby shower gifts!

St. George Gettaway!


Last weekend we travelled to St. George to see Chris' little brother Spencer get married. It was a beautiful wedding, and the reception was AMAZING! The kids really enjoyed playing with all their cousins, and also seeing Grandma and Grandpa again. Chris had a blast going fishing with his brothers, and also shooting, seeing movies, going out to eat, and just hanging out with all of them. I got to get ready for the wedding with my sisters-in-law by getting a pedicure. It was a great time. Congratulations to Spencer and our new sister-in-law Taylor! We can't wait to spend more time with you. Come and visit us here in AZ!

What Not to Wear


So the other day I was flipping thru channels and I came across this show called, "What Not to Wear." I'd seen it before and thought, man, these poor people have no clue what fashion means! It wasn't till this last time I watched it and I saw this girl who had the same kind of mentality as I did about clothes. I like to wear stuff that is bold, crazy, and probably a little too "young" for me. I love character shirts, and so did this chick! Well, they set her straight and told her how ridiculous she looked. Now I want more than anything for them to snatch me up and change my wardrobe! Oh well, I will just have to start taking someone besides my daughter with me when I go clothes shopping to get some more "grown-up" advice!

Motherly Insticts

I took Kaylee to the last "Summer Movie Fun" day today. It was Wallace and Grommet (cute movie). When the movie ended Kaylee and I got up (Crew was with Andrea, he's not well behaved in the movies anymore), we were walking toward the exit and a boy that was probably about 7 or 8 came running into the movie theater. Kaylee was slightly behind me, so I turned to grab her and get her out of his way, but just as I turned around, BAM! He hit Kaylee football tackle style! She went flying backwards (popcorn flying), and landed on her back! The boy paused, looked back and kept running away!! I was SHOCKED! I yelled, "Excuse ME!" (only thing I could think of), but he didn't turn around. I gathered Kaylee up, crying and all. I was so upset! I know accidents happen, but to not stop and say sorry, or help the little girl up? Who has taught this child manners? I waited outside the theater, ready to beat the living tar out of this child when he came out, I've never before felt so compelled to protect my child...but then I realized that probably wouldn't be the best example for Kaylee. So instead I just explained to her that his behavior was very rude, and that we were better than him.

Ready for School!

Kaylee and I went school shopping today. She got to pick out two outfits, a new pair of shoes, a backpack and one folder! She was sooo happy, she wanted to take a photo shoot when we got home. I kid you not, she did all of these cute poses on her own! She should be a model! Not to mention a bargain shopper! She picked out good deals(she takes after her mom).

Which One?

Ok, so I am having a little trouble deciding how to decorate my house. I first decided with the yellows and greens based with some dark brown... but Chris isn't lovin it. He would like something a little less bold, more neutral. I don't have a problem with neutral, I just don't want boreing. So I made both of these curtains, let me know which one you like better.

Memory Game

Here is a fun little game... leave a comment on my blog of a memory that you and I have had together. It doesn't matter if you've known me for a short time or a long time, anything that you remember! Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It is pretty funny to read the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you are playing and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. Come on, it'll be fun, just try it!
