This is a cool and fun thing to try! My mind is blue!
Your Mind is Blue |
 Of all the mind types, yours is the most mellow. You tend to be in a meditative state most of the time. You don’t try to think away your troubles. Your thoughts are realistic, fresh, and honest. You truly see things as how they are. You tend to spend a lot of time thinking about your friends, your surroundings, and your life. |

Beautiful Butterflies!

So I have decided to go and photograph some butterflies at the conservatory this weekend. Did I mention that I love my camera and taking photographs?? Anywho, they are having an exhibit and I decided to get my camera and practice some of my closeups! It should be a fun opportunity to get a look at some of the butterflies you don’t normally see! Just something fun to do! I will be back to share some of my pictures!
What if you could remember everything?

Over the weekend my husband had recorded a story about a woman who remembers every day of her life. Could you imagine remembering everything? I guess that could be a blessing and a curse. Being a Mom I find myself trying to remember all the little things the boys did when they were very little but often have a hard time even remembering all the details about that. In case you haven’t heard about this lady….here is the link to the story. It is really quite impressive if you think about it!
Being a Mom

What Being A Mom Means
Being a mom means that everything you eat tastes better even if your child has the same thing!
You can never pee alone again
When you get up to do chores the kids leave ya alone, but if you dare sit they become attached like glue!
The bathtub will never be the same, I guess I can learn to love playing with squirty toys!
If you’re tired the kids dont sleep, if you aren’t tired they will sleep when you need them up.
If you have two of something, they will still fight over what the other one has.
Poop always happens after you put on a clean diaper!
You must have good running shoes, cause the lil boogers are fast!, especially when they have something they aren’t supposed too.
Most of all being a Mom means, I am loved by two special little boys and I couldn’t want anything more.
A rose by any other leaf?

Filed under Just for fun!
I am by nature a crafty person and before I had my twins, I was always finding new things to do whether it was a new concept in scrapbooking or an adventure in oragami (which is frustrating as hell lol!). One day while I was combing the internet I ran across a nifty site where it shows you how to make a rose from a maple leaf. I have never tried to do it yet and at the moment I am fresh out of maple leaves, but will be trying my creativity in fall. I will have to take a picture of either a beautiful maple leaf rose or a picture of a flaming pile of leave if I don’t succeed! LOL! Here’s the Maple Leaf Rose, if you’re up for the challenge. Let me know how it goes!
Who’s Lying?

Ever wonder if someone is lying to you? Some people lie better than others but there are definitely subtle clues to pick up on those little white lies! I ran across a cool page that discusses body language and ways in which you can become your own lie detector. Check it out!
Want that Ebay item?

I have only bid on ebay a handful of times for various little things. The one frustrating thing is being outbid in the last remaining seconds of an auction grrr! Nothing like getting your hopes up for that thingamajig that you really wanted to brighten up your button collection or whatever it may be. I ran across a site that allows you to type in what you are looking for and then looks it up with all the common misspellings on Ebay. These items have fewer bids or no bids because the person who put it up for auction spelled something wrong. This increases your chances of getting those buttons! Kind of cool!
Short legs

It’s amazing how fast my boys are growing but they don’t seem to be growing into their pants lol. Their shirts are measuring 2T but they are only in 18 month and some 24 moth pants if you roll them up. Its cute to watch them run…they are awfully fast for having such short legs! Maybe they will be soccer players?
