Practice makes perfect....or does it?

So a couple weeks ago I thought I would try these new cupcake pops that looked delicious and they were just the right size for a quick little treat. I went out, picked up all my ingredients including this new food coloring that makes your food NEON colors! I got home and started my new and exciting task of making these pops. Three days later I finally finished up this treacherously long "fun" recipe, even after pleading with my husband to help my shove all these silly things into this tiny mold to get its shape. As I'm getting ready to turn my chocolate into cool colors I quickly learn that you can't add water based food coloring to almond bark!!!!! Urgh! And this is how they turned out???? WTFreak? I thought I would include a picture of how they were supposed to look. :(

My sweet baby is "wigged" out

This last week I had some fun with Miss K. At my sisters house my nieces decided to try out the curly grayish colored wig and then after I had lunch with my in-laws we decided to see what she would look like in another one of nieces "Miley Cyrus" build a bear wig. I think this one was my favorite.

And she said "I do"

Last weekend my friend Rashelle went with me to my best friend from high schools wedding in Portland. We had so much fun but unfortunately we forgot to take pictures of anything but the wedding. It was so nice to see so many old friends. It really made me wish I was able to visit more often. Since I was a bridesmaid Rashelle stayed plenty busy snapping photos.

My new best friend is blue and kinda squishy

Whoever invented the bumbo is a genius. A friend of mine let me borrow hers to see if Karli liked it and she absolutely LOVES it. She sits in it and thinks she's the coolest thing because she can see everything that's going on. This will have to be my next purchase! LOOOOVE IT!




Karli and I spent a couple days at the pool last week and to my surprise she actually enjoyed the water! Next year will be so fun!

Jumping on the bandwagon

With the recent release of the 4th book to this saga I have finally given in to the peer pressure of reading this series. I remember when it first came out and people told me it was about a vampire I immediately lost interest and couldn't stay tuned to whatever else they were adding to try to convince me to read it. I admit it is a fun read so far and can't wait to finish all 4. My goal is to read them all before the "Twilight" movie comes out in December. Ya know... because I have so much free time with a newborn and all. :) I was in a book club with some gals in the neighborhood but I think they unanimously kicked me out since I haven't been there lately so now I will dedicate however long it takes to read about this dreamy Edward guy. Wish me luck!
