Lazy Saturday Morning

The sun is supposed to make an appearance here today which will be nice because we've had a string of gray, wet, and very cold days; however, at the moment the house is quiet, gray, and lazy and I'm enjoying it quite a bit. Unmade beds, a baby in her favorite spot in front of the fire, a new knitting project to work on, a hot cup of coffee, chocolate, a sleepy toddler snuggling up under my arm....this is a nice way to start a Saturday. :)

Lovely. Would love to hear how your adoption is going. I can't seem to figure out if you are going domestic or international. I think I read something about Bulgaria a few years back. My two oldest (I have 5) were adopted. One from Kazakhstan and one from Ethiopia. Love. Such fun. I would be interested to know why it is taking you so long. It really shouldn't Both our adoptions, from home visit to bringing them home, were well under a year. Yours seem to be taking years and years. I'm being totally nosy, I know. But still interested.

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 ...
