My first Give Away!



So my friend Katie posted this on her blog and I responded so that means I need to have a give away. This will be first give away ever. I am so excited. Now just like Katie:
1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make.
2. What I create will be specially made just for you
3. It will be sometime this year (probably sooner)
4. It will probably be something crafty, but it could be something else

Here is the catch. You have to offer the same to the first five people that respond on your blog. Also once I send you your fabulous handmade present by me please post a picture of yourself with the present. This is meant to be fun so please go with it. 

I am a little nervous because I don’t really think anyone reads my blog. Which is my own fault because between this pregnancy, my two kids, my husband, MOPS, work, etc. I really don’t have much time to do much with it.  I hope to change that really soon. Help inspire me to get crafty and bloggy by responding to this post with a give away of your own.

Menu Plan for the week of February 7-14


Menu Plan
This week I am still trying to figure out as far as a menu goes. We will see how things go. For those of you who read my blog and don't know me; I am 15 weeks pregnant with my third child and my other two children are not quite three and 18 months old. It will be a little chaotic around here to say the least. We are excited about the baby, but I am not a very good pregnant person. I just haven't felt like me since I was pregnant with Big A over three years ago. :( Pregnancy also makes meal planning a little more difficult since I am usually not in the mood for what I plan to cook. :)

I hope you have a great week.

Meal Plan
Sunday: Grilled fish, chicken rice and artichokes
Monday: MIL cooking SURPRISE
Tuesday: Leftovers from Monday night (Yeah! Two nights of no cooking)
Wednesday: Soup and Salad
Thursday: Mexican either enchiladas or quesadillas with a veggie
Friday: Homemade salmon pizza and salad
Saturday: Valentine's Day supposed to go out. :)

Itty Bitty Dots Papertrey Inc. Ribbon Challenge


This is a card I did for the Papertrey Inc challenge. I had fun doing it, but didn't have much light in my craft space due to three blown light bulbs. I need to replace those tomorrow ASAP. It is a simple card that uses scraps from my collection. I tried to tie in the dot part with the pink Brazil Basics cardstock strip and then the blue ribbon actually has polka dots on it. I didn't realize I had so little time for this challenge, but I am glad that even in my pregnancy state I was able to do it. :)
