My Little Monkeys

These are my little monkeys ... in these shots they are being DIY "helpers".

Here a wrestling match broke out on our bed ... looks like the baby won!

At the same time my boys are wrestling, Brooklyn is showing off for the camera with her webkinz animals. She loves to glam it up for the camera and I love to catch her doing it!!!

My little man in all his beautiful glory!!! He is so adorable and the hubby is teaching him early about the love we have for the Yankees. Both my children are named after the New York Yankees ... Brooklyn for Brooklyn, New York and Jeter after Derek Jeter. Our dog's name is Yankee also. Let's just say the hubby and now the entire family is all about the Yankees!!!!

My Weekend

I haven't posted anything for a bit because we are having computer virus problems on our computer. Hopefully the hubby will be able to get it cleared up soon. After much trial and error and practice I was able to get these pictures uploaded.

This is what I did this past weekend ... restained our upstairs bathroom cabinet and painted the walls in our kitchen. I think both look way better ... however it makes the other projects we have on our list stick out like sore thumbs. All we need is time ...

Kitchen before Boooo

Kitchen After Yaaaaa!

Bathroom cabinet before (boo)

Bathroom Cabinet After (WOW)

I am happy with the results! Time well spent!

Next project ... not sure ... but I definitely need a new bathroom counter top and floor, not to mention those kitchen cabinets need some work!

New Quote

I found a new quote;

"The mind and the body are like parallel universes. Anything that happens in the mental universe, must leave tracks in the physical one."
Deepak Chopra

New Feature Artist Coming Soon

I am going to have my very first feature artist very soon and I am so excited about it. For those of you who do not know of her this will be a special treat. Not only is she an amazing artist but she is also an incredible blogger who searches through etsy to find new and exciting talent. When I first started on etsy she was one of the handful of etsians who took the time to give me serious feedback on my shop and ideas on how to improve it. During that time she made sure to not only encourage me but all those asking for help. Where she finds the time I do not know but her blog features new artists constantly with incredible well written stories about each of them.
I am very excited and honoured to have her as my very first feature ... so stay tuned it will be worth your while.
