Stockings all hung in a row...


I got this idea from my friend Kathy last year on her blog lucky to live the good life. Super cute homemade stocking idea! I didn't get my craft on as much as she did (aka I bought my stockings last year after Christmas for super cheap) but the kids and their daddy and I had a really fun time deciding what to put on them and then cutting the felt to make cute creations!

Roman wanted a rocket (big surprise there).

I actually hot glued all of the pieces together and then thought that we could potentially change these every year so I just used glue dots to hold the creations on the stockings. If I had more time I would sew them, but glue dots are fabulous for now!

Titus wanted his signature monster "qwuck." The monster truck was made by daddy.



I just made something cute for Natalya. I'm loving the sparkly felt! Way to go Hobby Lobby! And thanks Kathy for the great idea!

Super Hero Capes


I saw this tutorial on Pinterest a while back and decided that this would be the perfect thing for my boys. Sure enough, these super easy peasy super hero capes provided lots of entertainment. I didn't even make them as fancy as the tutorial suggests. I simply took 2 of daddy's old t-shirts and cut the front and the sleeves off and then after I put them on the boys I tied the neck in a knot since it was way too big for their tiny little necks. Viola! Instant Super Hero capes! We even got a little creative and drew a bat symbol on the back of the gray one.

Super heros don't need shirts.



Or pants. Make one for your little guy and watch him fly around the house! :)

Day 11 - December Photo Project



Tonight this little turkey was downstairs playing with his brother while I was feeding the baby girl some food upstairs. Usually they are playing trains or videogames or legos while they are downstairs and generally stay out of trouble. This evening I think Roman had to go potty and Titus followed him into the downstairs bathroom. Unfortunately, daddy was charging the buzzer (that's what I call it anyway!) that he uses to shave his neck so it was sitting right there on the sink charging. So our curious little boy decided to give himself a haircut! Thankfully I could hear that thing the second it turned on and I ran down the stairs quick as lightening and caught him after only one pass on his head. :) So he got a chunk out but it could have been much worse!

December Photo Project


Last year I attempted the December Photo Project and only posted maybe 3 pictures? So I don't have far to go this year to see a vast improvement. I'm excited to do this again! It's always fun to think of new ways to capture the holidays.

Here's my little boy Titus' feet as he was sleeping tonight. We put lights up in the kids' rooms...they love it. Sweet dreams little buddy.
