we are currently in our hotel room & let me tell you…a jacuzzi tub is a big hit with the under 3 set. good times.

so far chloe hasn’t been too horrible. she had a few melt downs & i ended up wedged between the carseats for about the last hour. a couple tense moments.

i hear “this tub is perfect for me” & “tubbies are fun mommy” noah is impressed.

“2 days until we leave for the beach!”

noah & chloe are driving me mad as i try to prepare for our trip.

i came to the realization that if i didn’t completely gut the laundry room i wouldn’t find everything we are going to need. that’s what i’ve been doing & it’s been taking days. now the rest of the house has suffered from the lack of attention. seriously losing it today. need some time to get things done & they aren’t giving it up.

tonight we are going shopping for some of the stuff we need. snacks…fun stuff for them to do in the car. i’m not feeling optimistic about the car ride but they have surprised me before & i’m praying that they do well. even reasonably well would be good at this point.

little crazies.

beach vacation

our countdown says “7 days until we leave for the BEACH!”
i didn’t see an ocean until i was in college & i’m so excited to be taking noah & chloe. noah talks about it everyday. i anticipate lots of craziness but lots of fun too. loads/heaps/an absolutely obnoxious amount of pictures.

scales

Charlie — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 00:54:44 +0000

Sometimes it’s not enough that something is functional. I like the things I buy to be functional but also fashionable and affordable. Take for example a bathroom scale. I find it hard enough to look at one but it would definitely help if it was this Escali bathroom scale. It fits right in with all the modern touches that so many of us enjoy in our bathrooms.
The new line of Escali digital scales appeal not only to a person’s need for scales,
but to their sense of style as well. In the kitchen you can match your scales to the color of your room. With all the work that goes into designing a kitchen why throw it off with one mismatched item?

Cheap Car Insurance

We all pay bills and often times it seems we pay far more than we should. It’s nice to see Cost-U-Less Insurance Center expanding their reach all over the State of California and opening new locations like this one offeringcheap car insurance in Madera.
Everyone needs car insurance. Why pay more than you have to? If you live in California I guess you won’t- you can get a quote fast and get on the road with the coverage you need.

glass tile necklaces

someone approached me with the idea of making my glass necklaces with images that they would provide. i was thinking i might branch out & start taking requests for custom pieces. i’m not really sure how it would work out but they 2 i’ve done so far (baby photos)are nice & maybe other people would like the thought of wearing their own photos/artwork. i might list that option on my etsy.
well, i’m thinking about it anyway.

old window art

Charlie — Tue, 27 May 2008 12:29:02 +0000

i have a couple old windows that i picked up recently & i’ve been trying to figure out what exactly i want to do with them. i’m not even sure what type of thing to do after looking at different ideas like these.
maybe a little table for the backyard…i was originally thinking of using them for some kind of art piece/painting/something but who knows. i’ll post a photo when i do get something underway.

this is really cute:
