I love Pinterest, like a lot. I have found some seriously amazing recipes & tutorials. I somewhat enjoy crafting and I love the finished product! I'm currently working on making some tikki torches for the backyard, but having not such great luck. I did however... have some luck. I have used these on two loads of laundry. The first was on some blankets and the second load was clothes. The sponges were Scotch sponges and were the "green" sponges they offer. Overall, my only problem is when you ring the sponges, your hands are not drenched in softener. Other than that, we think they work great! I'm a coupon shopper so I have enough dryer sheets for a while, but I will use these for a while!

It's wedding season . . . I went to my first wedding of 2014 & it was short and sweet! It's always great when you know a lot of the wedding party and when you arrive late and they're already lined up walking down the isle. I'm never late to anything, but I guess things change . . .

We did something I never thought we would do. Baby M decided about 3 months ago that she would wake up in the middle of the night. The first few nights were wild. She was waking up anywhere from 2-3 times at night. We went from having the best sleeping kiddo to a kiddo that wanted to host cocktail Similac parties at 1, 3 & 5 am. Let's get something straight, I am good on little sleep, I am, but I have never mastered the art of going right back to sleep. So when I would wake with Baby M, she'd knock out after 20-30 minutes then Mercedes was up for another hour, then she'd be up again. So I was somewhat of a zombie. C is always handy & would absolutely wake up with Baby M, whenever. Well just last week, Wednesday night we put our game face on. She's almost 9 months old and she pretty much runs the show. So Cody and I decided we were going to do the let-her-cry-it-out method. Basically it was well understood that Baby M didn't need anything when she'd wake up, she basically wanted to chat, sing or just be rocked to sleep. So we knew she wasn't hungry, dirty or sick... she just wanted us. So we did it. Wednesday night we let her cry it out at 1 am.It was awful, heart breaking and both of us almost gave in to going to get Baby M, but we didn't. She has officially slept through the night for the last 4 nights. I pray we are through the nighttime parties, but if we aren't, we'll rock the half asleep looks again! Grateful for a healthy and funny baby!
It's Spring Break around these parts and I love not dealing with school traffic, but I'm giving my teacher friends the I-hate-you looks... as they are off for a whole week.
