~teething never happens at a convenient time, and as soon as you think a tooth through the gums means a break in teething- its time for another tooth to start the process all over again
~expect the unexpected... no matter how simple the plans for a birthday celebration may be, you can trust that something/someone/or circumstance can affect your best planning efforts to simply celebrate a loved one's birth
~a new dishwasher is surprisingly a life changing kinda thing
~the messier and more colorful the snack/food... the more a child enjoys it (especially red stainy type foods- i.e licorice and strawberry fruit freezes)
~my child has more clothes than both her daddy and mommy combined (blessed meets overwhelmed)
~sprout is a sanity saver when
~my version of organized-chaos-craft-catchall-area was not as organized as i thought until hubby encouraged a michaels trip for "crafty organization things"
things i accomplished this week:
~surviving (a mentor teacher/colleague once told me, "all you can do is take each day as it comes and survive it") teething, sleep deprivation, and hormonal mood swings were enough for me to tackle this week
~birthday invites
~shower invites
~homemade decorations for shower and birthday
~oreo truffles (who knew i could "no-bake" something tasty?!)

awe adorable pics lady!! I especially love the craft dining room ones - too funny! I used to be like that too! And i never thought of giving Nick a popsicle. Duh!! He is teething too, and it's bad this time.
btw, did you change your blog address? i noticed that i didn't have it on my reader... weird.
teething is no joke! my sis (who is a nanny for a baby Jayme & Nick's age) gave me the fruit chillers idea, cut them in half and you got double the icey goodness!
same blog address :)
i long for the day i have a legit craft room!
