Go Stars!!!

Just a picture of Elouise at Uncle Rich's baseball game!
A friend of mine makes custom outfits for children so I had her make one for Rich's baseball games. On the back, it has his number! Go #16!

Valentine's Day

Yay! Valentine's Day is here! For Valentine's Day we did the following -

1. Woke up to Daddy bringing me a new espresso machine (I think he got tired of seeing Starbucks charges on the bank account if you ask me!)

2. Drank our coffee...

3. Elouise and I ran around town. We got Josh a gift certificate for a massage, got some wine (I got this...no worries, Elouise didn't), got some groceries, .......

4. We made heart shaped brownies for the neighbors. It was a beautiful day so we "strolled" down the street and delivered two to each neighbor. By the way, for the BEST brownie recipe, try The Lady's Brownies by Paula Deen. These are my absolute favorite. I always make sure that I have the ingredients for these at all times. Hey, you never know when you'll need to make a last minute thing of brownies!

5. Made dinner for Josh. Josh has been doing the Arbonne detox diet and has lost 20 lbs. However, he has been CRAVING pizza so badly. So Elouise and I decided that we'd make him a pizza for Valentine's Day. To be specific - a heart shaped pizza!! It was delicious.

I NEED A HOBBY!

All right, so before I get rolling on what's been going on in our lives, I just need to say that I NEED A HOBBY! We are just now getting "in a routine" and I'm figuring out that I spend a lot of time wondering...what can I do now??

Now before you go thinking that being a stay at home mom is a cake walk - let's get one thing straight! Keeping Miss Elouise Kathryn happy and smiling is a FULL TIME JOB. Ha! She is an extremely happy baby and we have sooo much fun, but goodness....

So every morning we wake up ... have coffee... have breakfast.. watch Kathie Lee and Hoda on the Today Show (don't judge me...guilty pleasure) and then E usually falls asleep for an hour. WORKOUT TIME!!! I have been soo proud of myself. NO MORE BABY WEIGHT!!!!!!!
Then what?!? I need a hobby.......

So I found this blog..... http://mrspriss.com. I clicked on DIYs and Tutorials and found so much to do.. As soon as I can get to a craft store, YARN WREATHS and FELT ROSETTES for EVERYONE!!!

So, if at Christmas, you get a yarn wreath, ACT SURPRISED!
