my sweet mother sent me a package full of goodies and i received it on thursday. she is so thoughtful because not only did she send me some baby things but also sent stuff for the girls as well. here are a few things she sent.
she made two of these little guys out of socks and gloves! my girls love them!! of course lyla wants whichever one lucy has. mom also sent me a beautiful blanket from the dwellstudio line from target, a matching onesie, blanket and hat, and two willowtree figures. my mom is wonderful and i am so blessed to have her.
i have also been busy working on a different kind of goody. when we started thinking about adoption we also discussed different ways to raise money. we are currently working on an idea for a t shirt so be watching out for that. until then, i figured i could do something for the ladies at work. i have been making yummie rice krispie treats, packaging them all pretty and selling them for a dollar. i think i may be the most popular girl at work! these women really are a blessing to us and i am so thankful for them. one has even asked me to make some for her daughter’s class valentine party. since i will be busy with those this week, i decided to try something new. i stumbled onto bakerella and really want to try the cupcake pops. so i started last night and now am about to go make them pretty. i hope they look like this later tonight!

When Hannah was younger, she was always successful in selling anything.
In fact, when her brother was suppose to sell tickets for one of his highschool fundraisers, it was his little sister Hannah who sold all of them!
On a further note, she DID NOT learn how to cook from her Mama. All that talent comes from her daddy and his side of the family. Who knew this girl who hated anything to do with the kitchen (cleaning or cooking) would grow up to be this awesome cook. My grandbabies will be the envy of all their school mates at lunch time!!

I can’t wait to see the tshirt. Congrats on the adoption processes we are currently waiting on an angel from Korea. Keeping you in my prayers.

OMG I just love those cupcake thingies! That is the one thing I miss about working at my old office. Everyone would bring yummies that you would never make yourself at home! Keep taking them….I’m SURE you’re a blessing to many taste buds.(hope you charge good for ‘em). Ok the sockie dolls? Maybe a gift for your pet that people would be willing to pay for!
