Did someone order the Mariachi

Our favorite Mexican food place has a band on Thursday nights. We went with friends this past week and it was Molly's first trip to the restaurant. I think she really liked the band because right before this she was smiling and swayin' around. Of course as soon as I turned on the video she stopped but I thought it was cute anyway. Enjoy!

Pinterest Passtimes

I promise I'm still here. I've just been working on quite a few pinterest projects during nap time and I can either blog or finish one of the dozen projects I've started. Here's a few that I've pulled from my boards

I made Molly some foaming baby wash using the lavender wash. It's made bath time much easier. Have to admit I didn't think it'd work but its awesome!

Made this "Cowboy Casserole" one night when I forgot to thaw out dinner. It was REALLY yummy. Even Rustin thought so.

Made my own version of this with cropped pics of Miss Molly. I uploaded to Wal-Mart and had them print it on one of their collage prints. It was less than $2 and looks so cute. Grandparents Day Gift...I think so :)
Had the opportunity to take this photo with my Nanny, Mom, myself, and Molly. Can't wait to see our version once it's printed.

These are still in the works. Waiting for gameday!

Bought all the ingredients this week. Can't wait to try 'em.

Excited to see if this really makes a difference. Is it the camera or the operator :)

I've been collecting books for several different holidays. Almost finished with Halloween and Christmas. Working on Easter, Thanksgiving, and Valentines day.

Can always use a "cream of something soup" substitute. Just need a container and then I'll get started so I can try it out.

Good lord my pots and pan cupboard is overflowing. Can't wait to try this out.

Waiting for my metal stamp set from Harbor Freight. Come on UPS!!!

Ready to try this now that I have some more modge podge.

Will have this (Baylor version) done before next game!!

Just need to print the pages for Molly's custom board book!!

Here's what I accomplished during Molly's most recent nap

Here's the body wash and the photo set up which I dont think worked very well but that may be my fault.


Here are the SUPER easy homemade granola bars & "cream of something soup". Below are the nicely stacked pots and pans because the little rack thing was crap less than ideal.

playtime

One of our shower gifts was a Flip video camera from my dad. It's the easiest thing in the world to use (there are only 6 buttons on the camera and that includes "power" and "record") and it's compact so I can carry it around in the diaper bag. Plus the software for editing is click and drag and you can share your videos/movies with the whole family in one click (literally) Anyway this week (week 5) Molly has started "playing" more so the videos are at least of a moving object now. Enjoy!

Needles, and Bobbins and Pins...Oh My

So thanks to Molly & Pinterest (more the latter really) I'm in need of learning to sew. My mom was always the mom that made creative halloween costumes for us (I didn't realize you could buy costumes until I was probably 12) and baked and decorated elaborate birthday cakes etc. While I'm sure she'd be more than happy to do the same for Molly, I want to be the one to do those things. Thus my latest purchase:



I picked this one because the majority reviews said it was SUPER easy for a beginner. I get the basics of sewing (I can figure out most patterns etc.) but my mom's machine is WAAY to complicated (I can usually only get as far as plugging it in) Anyway I can't wait for it to arrive so that I can start a few fabulous projects

Gettin' ready to fling our green and gold afar

Baylor football season starts Friday and Molly is all ready to go!!!

(I'm gonna toot my own horn here and let you know I made her onesie and her tu-tu)

We're planning on having people over for the game and thanks to Pinterest I've got some fun menu ideas!


A "burger bar"


A little twist on our normal jalapeno poppers

A Day in the Life...

After waking up, getting a quick diaper change and eating this is how Molly spends most of her day.

Chillin' with the dogs after tummy time




Hangin' out after a bath
