We’re kicking off the Baby Time guest posts with a blogger that should be familiar to many of my readers. Dawn of Not Just a Mommy has been featured several times on my blog. She is the brains behind such inventive parties as “Trailer Park Pride Potluck” and recently an adorable airplane party. She has…
Ok. This is going to be my last post for a while, before turning things over to my talented guest bloggers, unless I have baby news to report, or unless I am bored of having no baby news to report and decide to blog to pass the time. I am happy to report that I…
I thought it would be nice to kick off this Baby Time countdown with a kid/baby giveaway! Realizing that I have my own crew of testers, the folks at Tanner’s Tasty Paste were kind enough to send me several samples of their line of very tasty kid’s toothpaste to try out. The short story is…
What did birthday parties look like in 1904? I’m not sure, but I tried to figure it out for my daughter’s 9th b-day party this weekend. Being largely pregnant, and all, I tried to simplify a little from what I would normally do (but it never quite works out that way). Several months ago, they…
I am getting some great guest posts lined up for you, but in the meantime, I received an S.O.S. from a friend looking for some inspiration for a baby shower she is hosting. In all fairness, she only asked me for invitation ideas, but my brain doesn’t really work that way. I can’t think of…
So, as you can see, I got a lot of blogging done this week (*note the sarcasm*)! It is going to be a busy couple of weeks as I put together a birthday party for my soon to be 9-year-old, and wrap up my music classes with an end of year recital. After those thing…
Here are some great ideas I’ve found around the web this year, that I am either trying or wanting to try at some point. Most of these are simple enough that you can still make them happen before Easter! I have just found the ladies over at eighteen25, and am really impressed with their fun…
I wasn’t sure between pregnancy and my music classes that I teach on Thursdays whether I would be able to pull anything off, or not. Thankfully I got my husband on board to finish preparations while I taught, and I am happy to report that we got them! Doesn’t that cake look delicious? How about…
What involves royal frosting, fondant, literature, and power tools? If you live at my house, it is a 4th grade school project! My daughter read “The Sign of the Beaver” and had chosen to create a diorama (or “diarrhea” as my 2 year old calls it) of a scene in the book as her project….
Thanks to everyone who entered the Mikarose giveaway! Random.org selected the winner of the $60 gift certificate, and that very lucky lady is April of tutu.cute & co. April said that she would definitely pick the Alexia dress in black. (Of course, she can still change her mind.) Keep us posted on your pick, April!…
