Little Girls


(Lyric is a huge fan of the sling :)
We now have five little girls living under our roof, and for a girl like me...that's perfect!! Don't get me wrong, I love my boy with all of my heart, I'm just not disappointed in the ratio of boys and girls. I'm happy. One of my most favorite things about baby girls (which I have three of at the moment) is dressing them! Oh my goodness! I don't think I could ever get tired of it!
Every night before we have to go somewhere I lay out their outfits with all of the pieces so that the big kids can help me dress them. I love mixing leggings that came with one thing with tops or dresses that came with something else. I rarely ever dress them in an outfit that came together.
Then around the age of 2 1/2 - 3 I let them take the lead a little, and that makes it even more fun! To get to see their personality in what they have on is so cute! I remember Maddie once running to the hardware store on a Saturday morning wearing polka dot footie pajamas, a tu-tu skirt, and hot pink rain boots, Ben said that everyone there had a fit over how cute she was. Claire has just started this stage too and the other day told me after she got dressed in this "Now, come take my picture mommy! On the porch!" She posed exactly like this and I snapped the picture, then she demanded "Yet my see mommy!" She was one proud girl when I showed her. Oh these little girls! Ben and Timothy sure do have their hands full! xo, Sam

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 ...

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 ...

The Family Closet

It's another gray day so the pictures aren't great, but I wanted to get these posted since I have a few minutes. The family closet has changed my life people!! It has taken my most overwhelming chore from crazy to totally doable. We had to start in the laundry room because that is were most of this process starts. These storage racks went on sale for 69$ right after Christmas and we got 3. We also got several of the $3.50 Steralite clothes baskets because they fit side by side perfectly. In the laundry room I now have baskets labeled (Whites, Towels, Darks, Reds & Purples -we have a lot of those!) to separate clothes into, baskets marked "Clean" for clean clothes, a place for storage (extra dish cloths, table cloths, socks that need a mate). The laundry room is much less intimidating now, I actually like going in there! I also now have room for my drying rack in here! I painted a huge henna design on the wall to pretty it up a bit. :) The Caffee sign ...
