More crafting.

I got some more supplies for crafting, so you will be seeing some more pop up in my shop.  Some more socks, bigger sizes, and some different scrunchies - soft fuzzy ones.  These fuzzy ones are my favorite, I just wish I could find alot more colors.  I will keep looking.  So, keep checking my shop to be the first to get these great new items.

We have adopted another pet.

The newest addition to our pet family arrive about 1 week ago.  My 9 year old along with the neighbor boy caught a horny toad and it came to our house to live.  I don't really mind, as it just overjoys to boy to have a cool little pet like that.  It was rather shy in the beginning and would his and snap at him when he tried to pick it up, but after a while, he figured out that if he just rubbed behind the little horns on the top of it's head, it calmed down.  Great, now we get to chase the little guys around and make them scream.  
So, a place was made to keep the lil' toad thingy safe from the cats.  They really wanted to eat it!  So for a few days in lived in a barrel type home will plenty of red ants for snacks.  Now it has been moved to an empty fish tank filled with sand and rocks to enjoy a safer life.  We are still looking for names, so any suggestions would be great.

What do little people think?

The other morning I was combing my 2 year old girl's hair.  She was just jabbering along and through the course of the conversation, she let me know that the neighbor boy, about the same age, said she was ugly.  Then she stops, looks up at me and says "Kick him?"  I say no, we want to be friends.  She hangs her head for a moment then looks up again and says "Bite?"  It just made my day.  Makes me wonder what her idea of a friend was.

QuickRewards

Here is another great site I have found for taking survey and earning cashback while shopping online.  QuickRewards is a great place.  I have cash out so many times.  The great thing is, they don't require a minimum to cash out.  This is one place that I use alot, they have a pretty quick turnaround time in paying  as well.  They also pay through Paypal, which I used alot.  Here is the link so you can try it out.

Got a bunch more scrunchies in my shop.  A few different colors.  I am currently working a barely small ones for those who have thinner hair, like myself.  Hope they turn out to be good sellers, I am starting to get discouraged. NO!  I will not, I will be patient and things will start selling.  Here are a few pics of the ones that are done and up for sale.

Got my baby gift set completed finally.  I spent so much time trying to find the right ribbons for it (which I never did find so I gave up).  I just added my own decorations and it turned out super cute.  It is now available in my Etsy shop. I would have kept it myself, but I don't think I baby BOY would appreciate GIRLIE things on him.  They are going to be a great hit at baby showers and if it ends up selling quick, I will probably be making more.  Meanwhile, I am going to be stocking up on ribbons, buttons, and bows, etc. to keep on hand so my next set won't take quite so long.  Check it out and let me know what you think.

I miss the beach.  Last time I went to the beach was about 15 years ago.  Got to spend a week at Capistrano beach.  I see all these beautiful pictures all over the net and makes me think I should start saving up.  Disneyland, Universal Studios, and Seaworld all in one week, man, I could definately do that again.

Just about finished up with my baby gift set.  It consists of 2 darling crocheted baby hats, 1 darling headband with a flower, and 1 baby washcloth.  It will fit a 3+ month old baby.  I am looking forward to putting it in my shop.  It turned out so cute.
