Yay! Baby Tea Pics

My sweet Rae. Isn't she lovely! She got so many gifts that she had to open some when it was over! This is what happens when you hold a baby around here. I was laughing at how I drew the little girls in! If you hold the baby they will come. Haha! My precious lil angels.
Did you notice my favorite couch, from my bedroom, made an appearance at the tea. Love it!

Hi Samantha,
Your TEA looks wonderful!!! You really did a beautiful job. I love the photo of you with the baby and all the little girls standing around you in dresses and bows. And your 2 wee ones are sooooo sweet. Must get that from their mom.

I think your idea of printing out your posts is a great idea. I've heard a lot of other people talk about that they blog to keep a record of family history.

PS Your magazine is in a mailer and addressed but haven't gotten to the post office yet. Will try to get their Monday morning. Sorry!

Oh memories!!! I have identical twin girls that were born via C-section at 37 weeks. They were so small then and now they will be 3 in only a couple of weeks.

Tell your sister Rae that it is a challenge in the beginning but to hang in there. After they start eating some whole foods (I bought myself one of those baby food blenders and made my own), the load will lighten a little. Plus, they will always have a built in playmate!!!

Best Wishes,

The Handmade Dress Infomercial: Do you suffer from scrached DVD's?

Do your children cry when they can't watch their favorite movie because of irritating scratches? Are you sick of paying good money for movies that are scratched minutes after you take them from the case? Do you often wish that we could just go back to VHS because you could leave them out in the rain, bring them in and use them for a coaster, and then let the baby throw it for fun and it would STILL WORK!? ME TOO ! . We have struggled for years with scratched movies that were no longer watchable, but not anymore! We have finally found the secret formula to rid you of this nasty little problem forever! . Crest Kids Toothpaste! YES, that's what I said! Kids toothpaste! . A few months back I heard some place that toothpaste would take of scratches and I tried it and it didn't work, then the other day out of pure desperation I tried it my way. IT WORKED! So I decided this kind of news could not be kept secret, I have to tell the world! So I

New triple bunks.

Ben designed new bunk beds for the "girl's dorm" and "boy's dorm" in our house. We LOVE them!! We are almost done with all of the work, just a few loose ends left to tie up, but I couldn't wait to show off his handy-work. This is the girl set. We stained them with colored stain and we really like how that turned out. It's almost the color of cranberries. I still need to paint the boards that are attached to the wall. I'm going to paint them the color of the wall so that it looks like the beds are floating. :)  This is the boy set while still under construction. We ordered new bunk mattresses, but they haven't come in yet. I will show you guys pictures when they are completely finished. We stained these green, it looks like the color of bamboo. The kids LOVE these beds! And oh the space we have now! I'll be back soon with finished pictures! xo, Sam If any of you make beds using these plans could you send us a picture? We
