BUZZMAMA

I am a official BUZZMAMA for a incredible company called Mabel Labels that I was introduced to by my sister . They are amazing labels to label almost everything you own .I love labeling everything must be something that's in my blood as my dad likes to label too I do believe there is a label on his TV remote .(mom correct me if I am wrong )So this company offers great labels that are durable and and you can customized to suit your life style too . So I received my Mabel label kit in the mail .LOVE getting mail that is not bills or junk flyer's. They gave me so much great goodies . If you have any more questions about Mabel Labels just give me a BUZZ and I will give you more info. They offer great fund raising opportunities for your clubs ,school ,etc too.


So I spent a day labeling the kids boots , coats , sippy cups ,hats and whatever else I could label . Happy Labeling !!!!

FRIENDLY REMINDER

Please remember Earth Hour tomorrow @ 8:30 pm. Lets shut off all our lights ,TV and anything that may run from electricity and get our candles out and play good ole fashion board games with our family or read a book or head out for a walk . We will be coming home from Regina tomorrow but I will not let the kids play any games or anything that may use batteries .We will shut off the radio and enjoy each others company .
Happy Earth hour tomorrow.

Just the 2 of us .





Well today Addyson and I had a MUCH needed mommy and me day .I must say should of did this a long time ago . We both enjoyed the the day to no end .Addy was unsure about leaving Isabelle with BABA she cried to the Alameda hill cause she wanted her sister to shop too. It was so nice not to have to lug a diaper bag around all over though. WE skipped every where we went ,jumped off curb sides , pretty much took the long way around every where and had a chance to answer all the "whats that ?"questions today and not just ignore them cause we were too busy . I urge all mommies to give each kid a date with you . WE had a long lunch at Addys pace and shared her 1st DQ blizzard together . Noticed today my girl is a big girl she no long needs or wants a booster seat or high chair in restaurants. WE went shopping at the dollar store .She picked up a few things like a dust pan and little broom for her kitchen , some craft stuff and paints.(before we left to go shopping she told me she "needed paints mom") We also made a stop at the Whistle Shop in Estevan never been and always wanted to check out today we did . It took awhile to find even had to stop and ask for directions ,but we found it and so glad we did . The treasures we found ! We got Addyson some new shoes and some very natural nail polish and remover .A few other things too . It was great Addyson enjoyed being in there so very much .I do not recommend taking more then one child in there at a time . You will know what i mean when you go to check it out !!We will be definitely going back ! A quick trip to Walmart to get some pictures developed and back home . THANKS BABA for watching Izzy for us today .

THE WORKS



Today I decided to began Spring Cleaning I conquer one room at a time TODAY was the bathrooms turn but I got really excited and gave the dog "THE WORKS" before I cleaned the tub.I clipped nails along with filed them ,then bathed her, brushed her teeth and sprayed some colonge on her too .Wet dog smell is not very nice . She needed to get rid of her WINTER hair and really I feel like I have neglected her since Isabelle has been born . I am so sure that tomorrow she will probaby enjoy her clean self in the mud puddles just for me to have to do it all over again

We GOT MAIL !!




Love to receive mail and the kids do too .They each received easter mail from BABA and PAPA this week . The girls also received this cozy package TODAY from our crafty friend Jenni and family .

A apple a day does NOT keep the doctor away !




Addyson has almost a apple everyday and has been know to eat the whole thing core ,seeds and all .She may get that from her PAPA . Indeed has not kept the doctor away it started with a fever,white blood cells out of whack, a few needles and lots of tylenol.Then two days later hacking smokers cough and snot from ear to ear I knew my girl needed more ,so back to DR.B for antibiotics .Now a little girl would only do right by her mama if she did what she was taught to do SHARE .So she did just that and shared with her sister .So little Miss Isabelle got it worse and had to be on the nebuliser along with antibiotics .And then good ole mama got it too .So this house got sick real quick .

Well ...welcome.


I really do not know how to begin so here it goes .This has been something I have wanted to do for quite sometime .BUT ...Where do I started .I am not good with the computer unless it means shopping online I can do that ,so was this going to be hard . What would FAMILY think would they enjoy my venture and want to be apart of it or run for cover when they see me with the camera .But really if anyone knows mean well the real me I really wouldn't care and I usually do what I want any how ,so WHY oh Why don't I just DO IT . Then just not sure where to start with a nudge from a few friends or a certain friend I did just that and started THIS . I Hope it is everything I thought it would be and more .SO WELCOME TO Keeping up with The Jones. And its going to be just that .
