Best Darn Toy Ever!!!

Hands Down the Fisher Price Step n Play Piano is the best toy ever. Croix got if for Christmas last year and it has been a life saver. There are music keys on the top and bottom of the play station. The swivel chair helped Croix play with both sides of the toy and helped him be nosey all at the same time, lol. When they start to get more mobile the seat pops off and they can stand and play. Here's a few stages of Croix and his favorite toy.




BREAKING NEWS!!!!!!!!!

Fun at the Park


Croix had some fun time at the park this past weekend. Rockin his little fro he inherited from mommy :). He really loves the park and I can already tell he is going to be one of those little boys that I have to keep a supply of band aids, lol! He likes to go down the slide then try to climb back up the slide. And its funny because he doesn't get anywhere, but he just insists, lol! I thought about getting on the slide with him but then I looked at the slide and they don't make them like they use to. I don't think my hips would fit, HAHA! Plus back in my day we had metal slides, and those slides you needed brake pads for because I remember FLYING down. These new aged slides are all plastic. My butt and a plastic slide is not going to work out. However, what I did realize is that I'm going to need some knee pads because climbing thru tubes and little jungle gym things is not going to work. So based of this outing I have begun hitting the gym again. Wish me luck :) Here are a few pictures of Croix's fun.

My Lollipop Bouquet



My first featured crafting project :) I made this lollipop bouquet for Croix's daycare provider. She is the absolute best and she is so great with Croix. I really wanted to do something nice and fun at the same time. What do you think :) ?


The mess before the finale. I get all my supplies and things from Dollar Tree most times or if I come across the dollar section at Target I ALWAYS load up on things I think I might use for a project.


I placed one of those floral fillers in the bottom of the tin bucket and started filling in the suckers. I used brown paper strips to fill in between the suckers for a fun way of mimicing dirt.


annnnnnd BAM!! All filled in.


I bought the Happy Birthday balloon from the dollar store as well, and made two paper balloons to write my message on them. Add some ribbon and..........

FINISHED PROJECT :) Getting Old SUCKS......Get it???? Sucks......Suckers???? LOL! Wrote her name on the chalk board part of the bucket and packaged it all up in a little brown bag I decorated. She loved it :) So my project was a success :)
