Okay and then some SCRAPPIN!
Harper was very happy this morning to be with her granny. Granny was late getting back from the pool this morning, so Harper and Mama sat outside for a while and talked to Daddy on the phone.
Gavin's friend is coming over tonight, so I'm going to keep Harper away from the house, so G can have his 'man' time. I hope that he enjoys it.
Thumbs up to a GREAT weekend ahead. I want to paint my scrap room or pick up a table this weekend! Eek!
I'm sleepy.
Happy Christmas in July!
We are halfway there to the MOST wonderful time of the year!
Harper is happily staying home with her Daddy today. I will see her around lunchtime, and I just can't wait! The last few nights I've been going to bed pretty early. I always start out in my scrapping room for a few minutes, and then Harper wakes up to feed, so I feed her inevitably falling asleep, and when Gavin takes her from my arms, we all go to bed pretty much. That is every night for the last week. I'm zonked and I just don't know why. I have no energy nowadays.
I look forward to staying up late and scrapping this weekend. I never have time to really sit for a long period of time, but I'm going to make time this weekend. I need my scrap haven.
Still looking for a cheap table to make my masterpieces on. Waiting on some stuff to come in the mail or ups... yay! Can't wait.
Tonight before I go home I think I'll stop at the store and pick somethign up before my coupons expire.
Did I mention that I'm zonked? Yeah.

Hump Day Post...
Tomorrow Harper is staying home with her sweet Daddy while Granny gets a check up done.
Harper's 2 month old stats: 10.13 lbs / 22 1/2 ins - My how you've grown in a month an 2 weeks.
Harper's 2 week old stats: 7 lbs / 20 ins - She was just a tiny bit bigger than when she was born.
Harper's 2 day old stats: 6.3 lbs / 19 1/4 ins - Did you shrink Harper?
Harper's Birthday stats: 6.9 lbs / 19 3/4 ins - Sweet angel baby...
I knew that she had grown up since her last appointment, but even I was surprise by how much!? Harper is currently wearing her 0-3 / 3-6 months clothes, and she is in size 1 diapers. She is in the 50th percentile (right in the middle) for both height and weight. She starts daycare this coming Monday, and I'm not looking forward to it. I know she will be great, but I'm concerned that she won't get the kind of one on one attention and nurturing that she gets with her family right now. I hope she flourishes though in spite of that. This week we are going to switch her over to powdered formula. This will be easier to maintain while she's at daycare, and I'm still breastfeeding, but I don't see myself continuing that for much longer. I feel like I produce less and less each day.
I recently saw old pictures of myself from Christmas 2005. I was about a size 3/4 at this time in my life, and I look great! I feel kind of depressed about my weight. I'm at my prepregnancy weight right now, but my body is still weird looking. I hate my loose skin. I need to loose about 20 lbs to fit in 3/4s again. When I'm not breastfeeding I'll be able to diet a little, and that will help. Right now I'm watching my intake, and I'm eating small portions. I'm drinking tons of water, and I'm not snacking. Also I'm eating 3 healthy meals a day. I don't have time to work out right now, and school starts on Monday, so what extra time I would have will be eaten up by school work. I'm stressed about finances right now with Harper's daycare eating up half of my paycheck. We are making cutbacks, but I'm still concerned.
Scrapping for me right now is a creative outlet. It's keeping me relatively stress free. Honestly I would like to drop my class this summer and not take it, but it would deter me from taking my fall class that I've already signed up for. Why can't I just stay home with Harper?! School is seriously going to stress me out, and this whole daycare thing is expensive (even for the cheapest daycare in town)!!
I'm exhausted all the time now. I really don't sleep well even when I do get sleep. Sometimes I feel like I'm so far from where I want to be.
- I want to be done with my degree.
- I want to be in shape.
- I want to be in a career that I love and enjoy / or just staying home.
- I want to make more money.
- I want to pay off my credit cards and put more money in savings a month.
- I want a bigger car.
- I want Gavin to have a new car that is reliable and requires less maintenance.
- I want Gavin to be finished with his degree.
- I want Gavin to be in shape with me.
- I want to have more hours in the day to spend with my family.
- I want to be a better cook.
- I want to have time to read a book.
- I want to sleep well everynight.
- I want to be healthy, wealthy and wise.
Haha. I want, I want, I want! Marsha, Marsha, Marsha!
I'm done with my rant.
Here are some cute pics of my cutie patootie.
BTW, I have some awesome coupons for Michael's and Hobby Lobby 40-50% off. Yay. I'm going to get a white opaque pen, fiskars crafting knife and maybe something else, when I find time of course.
Lookin' at her Grandpa!
Happy 4th of July
Whatcha lookin' at there?
Tiny feet, tiny toes...
Sleepy girl...
What Mama does best!

the 4th
Changed my blog up a bit. I think it's adorable now. I love Shabbyblogs.com... Cute stuff.
Ordered my Basic Grey Magnetic Mat Kit today, someone on TwoPeas was selling it for uber cheap, so I bought it up for $17 including shipping. That's a great deal. They are normally $25 + shipping on other sites.
Now all I need is a craft knife. I think I'm going to get the Fiskars brand with funny handle.
Um this weekend we're heading to Karina's house for fireworks and food, yum! And I might actually go swimming. I haven't gone swimming in 2 summers. I hope Harper has a great time.
We decided to not go to the game tonight, so we gave out tickets to my parents; they should have fun tonight! I hope everyone has a good 4th and weekend!

Just about to leave for lunch, quick post!
K, so I am trying to organize my SB room right now. It's nearly impossible! I don't have a table to scrap at. I scrap on wood floor in my guest bedroom. And I don't have shelves to put stuff on, so all of my supplies, stickers, tools, paper, embellies, and everything is spread out around me at all times. This just kills me honestly. I love to SB, but I'm afraid to go in my room to tackle everything.
Ugh, I just need a cheap table and fast! I'm going to hit up craiglist soon. I have a shelving unit to put in there, but I'm taking it out of Harper's room, so I need something to go in there. Preferrably something small, like 3 shelves to go under her window in there.
Ugh. I ordered some stuff from the Freak. It was 80% off; what a fabulous deal. Spent like $14 and got tons of paper and embellies. Love that!
I'm a bargain queen!
Ok, now it's time to see my little baby and give her lots of kisses and cuddles.
Tomorrow night, possible Rangers game with Gavin's free tickets, and SB because I CAN!
Yay!

Okay, so yesterday evening I had a great time scrap shopping with my mom. We went to Michael's so I could use my 50% off coupon before it expired that evening. My mom went in 50/50 on a pack of nursery paper; I got the Hog Heaven from Sassafrass Lass. It was on sale for $14.99 but I got it for $7.50 with my coupon. I purchase some cute clear everyday stamps, ink, a few kitschy stickers from K&Co that were on clearance, and some paper border that was on clearance as well. I try not to buy anything unless it's on sale or unless I have an awesome coupon
Then I went to Big Lots sans Mom. They had THICKERS yo! They were $2/pack. I got 2 packs of each font that they had. I got light blue poolside, lime green prancer and pink root beer float. Then I got some accents vinyl stickers. I forget which ones though in pearly green, white, yellow, black and magenta. Then I found a pack of American Crafts paper, A la Carte. They were $8/pack. That's an awesome deal, so I got those as well. When I get more scrappin' monies I will head back and see if there are new fonts. They also have the Remarks stickers by American Crafts, some funky chipboard shapes, and they had American Crafts buttons and eyelets. I love that brand.
They had some other scrappin stuff for cheap, but I only really wanted the American Crafts stuff.
I'm extremely tired today as usual, but I feel like tonight is going to be great! I have plans with my scrappin' space when Harper is done feeding and gone off to slumberland! I need to organize my 12*12 pages, and I want to start on my memorial day layout I think. That or I want to finally finish my labor pages or I might just leave them plain jane. I need to finish typing my birthing story, and I have plans with the mac tonight. I need to upload photos for everyone, and I also want to set up a collage of pics for a layout that I'm dreaming off.
I know that I'm going to have a great weekend with my family. On the fourth we have plans to visit our Aunt Karina and play with sparklers, yay! I just need to pick some up one night.
I can't wait until this evening.
Now what should I prepare for dinner?
