here's lookin' at you kid!

day 24, "something you are grateful for"...
scrapbooking...
don't get to do it on a daily basis...
even not on a weekly basis lately...
baby busy life has taken over...
but when i do get a chance...
i'm really grateful for it...

some of my fave punches...

day 25, "looking down"...
and she loves to get into things...
like kitchen drawers...
to scatter towel love..
lol...

today....

• took a nap...wow!
• bbq-ing some chicken in the slow cooker...
• marinading some other chicken to bake for dinner tonight...
• gonna pick up maiya from school...
• then do a small grocery run...
• maybe mop a little...
• cook dinner, make some real mashed potatoes (not from the box, thank you very much!)...
• maybe cook the taco meat for later on this week...

trying to multi-task cook...
we'll see how it goes.

wish me luck.

special thanks to all

i was totally overwhelmed and so grateful for all the comments during the ScrapTiffany Blog Hop from nov 8-9.

so here is to all of you who left me your kind and sweetest comments...

THANK YOU!

1st blog post on ScrapTiffany

head on over to ScrapTiffany for my 1st ever blog post for this Wednesday Hijack.  i talk about keeping a gratitude journal.

i think it's so important to remind yourself of what you are grateful for on a daily basis.  write it down...on a piece of scrap paper and stash it away in a nice container, on a sticky note and stick on your computer, your mirror or anywhere you can see it.  you can also blog about it in a private or public blog.... any way is great as long as you have it in writing and you can look back on it and say "so grateful i did this and that."

here's a few sneakz of what's in store at today's ScrapTiffany's Wednesday Hijack (<-----click here!!!):

and a journal i bought a couple of weeks ago from walmart for my future next entries:

don't you think the owl is oh soooo cute!  can hardly wait to start using this. no need to deck out the outside of this one.

what are you grateful for?  today...me...i'm grateful for being on a great design team. 

so go on over to ScrapTiffany and show off the creative side of you on what you're grateful for.  and feel free to leave me a comment and a link...i would love to see what you do!  yey-yah!
