Behind, behind, behind....

Wow, I am slipping!!  My last post was in February!  I know, I know.....I should be ashamed of myself!  haha.  Well, life continues to keep busy - between Jude and doing my crafts - I rarely find myself doing nothing!  However, every now and then my body tells me to take a nap when Jude does (so sometimes I listen!)  He is quite the busy body - always doing something or getting into something should I say.  He definitely takes after his mom and dad - busy, busy, busy!  He is a big help (when he wants to be) - he helps vacuum, dust and hands me all the pillows when I make the bed in the morning.  I am amazed at the things he picks up on - things you never realized he was watching you do!  He loves the shop vac too - for those of you that have facebook, I am sure you have seen the video.  If you want to see it, I can email it to you, just let me know - it will definitely give you a laugh for the day!  It is music to his ears - that's all I will say!  We pray everyone had a blessed Easter!  Christ is Risen!  Alleluia!

caught in the act!  haha


My "hoodlum"...he likes for me to put his hood up, and then he'll go check himself out in the mirror!  

We didn't do the Easter Bunny pics this year....not a huge fan of the Easter Bunny, but I of course took my own pics.....


Everyone's favorite....priceless!

"hey mom, are we done yet?"

looks like he is up to something....


"this is my ear"  (he has gotten really good at knowing a lot of body parts...eyes, nose, ears, hair, toes, legs....for the leg he lifts his pant leg up....mouth and tongue are newer ones he has learned.  So fun to watch him!!)

No joke, he went over and grabbed an Easter book....the only one in the stack....he must have known we were taking Easter pics!


Easter Morning!!!


He got a tool set for Easter...now he can hammer like dad!




"that's a fire truck!"  (he absolutely loves cars, buses, trucks now...you know he's definitely a boy!!)

where's Jude??

Here I am!!!

Kisses for great grandpap Harrison

Aaron and I

Eating like a big boy!!
So everyone set up an Easter egg hunt for him (all in the open of course), yet, all he wanted was the phone and remotes!  haha

a cute moment with Pappy....enjoying some animal crackers in one of the eggs!!

Well, for those of you that don't get to see facebook, I recently put some of my items at the store I am working at to sell!!  In one day, I sold both of the button bracelets I had there as well as some of my vintage hairpieces.  I wanted to share with you some more things I've been working on...some for the store and some for the other property we're working on!


Some old retro canisters I picked up...

and transformed!!


The vintage style rocker I picked up at goodwill!  


This is now on sale at Ecokids (where I work).....

He works in quality control.....just testing it out!  (it might need more paint judging by his paintbrushes!)



Another Goodwill find.....folding seat/stool

For sale at Ecokids.....


Vintage button rings.....on sale at Ecokids as well

The button bracelet I sold at Ecokids.....

My first store display!  (and I am in the process of adding more!)

The other one I sold!


This is the Goodwill jewelry box  I found.....

Transformed...and this is now used as a display piece for my hairpieces...


Vintage hairpieces I did.....for sale at Ecokids



My newest creations....vintage skeleton key necklaces!  I made about three so far, so I'm hoping to put them for sale at the store as well, and hopefully make more!

My valentine (NOT for sale at Ecokids!!!)
Uncle Justin and Jude hanging out!


Our guy....he was the one that put his hat on sideways!!  Just trying to be cool I guess :)  haha


Goodbye!! Until next time....
