Wordless Wednesday

Wordless/Wordful Wednesday

Some people call it a "broken" family when parents divorce. Mine did and remarried and I'd say that there is nothing "broken" about having these wonderful siblings. This pic is so special to me because, due to living in different states, this is the only picture I have of all of my brothers and sister and myself. I love it.

New Lollipops and Polka Dots Boutique Item

Posted by Robin Haws on Tuesday, August 25, 2009, In : Things goin on 
I get a lot of requests for items in the boutique. There are quite a few items that originated from custom orders and turned out so great that they became a staple item in the shop. One of the things I've been asked since I opened shop has been "Are you going to carry nursing covers?"

Yep! I sure am!!

Introducing the LoliCover



Breastfeed in style while remaining subtle!

These covers are one-size fits all and completely adjustable. Each cover has a 6 inch terry cloth trim on the inside for easy ...

Mommy's Organized Chaos

Mommy's Organized Chaos - A Guide to Putting Away Leftovers


When you are an Organized Chaotic Mommy you don't just go to do one task, complete it and walk away. Any OCM worth her stuff knows that there will be five million other things to do during the simple task at hand. The trick is to flow through them seamlessly, with ease, effortlessly...yeah right.

1. Go to the kitchen to get a drink.
2. See leftovers sitting on stove and think "I should put those up now. Dinner was hours ago."
3. Open the...

Not Me Monday

Posted by Robin Haws on Monday, August 17, 2009, In : Not Me Monday 

This blog carnival was created by MckMama. Check out her blog to see what everyone else has not been doing.


We had a wonderful weekend! Though the kids' birthdays are only a couple of weeks apart, we decided that this was the last year to do a joint party. TRex will be old enough next year to do something fun and on his own. So, we seized the chance, especially after having just moved, to combine the parties into one. It was a lot of fun. I did not get so busy that I forgot to take pics. My hu...

Fragrance Mood

Posted by Robin Haws on Thursday, August 13, 2009, In : Other Stuff 
I really like things that you can play with on the internet. I call them my procrastination tools. Facebook is a really good one because of all the mini procrastination tools like games and quizzes. You know you love them!

I have a new one! The Bath and Body Works "Fragrance Mood" widget is so much fun! You pick the icons and characteristics that describe you and drag them into the empty perfume bottle. Then it picks the scent for you and offers you a bunch of suggestions from their store. Yo...

Wordless and Wordful Wednesday

WORDLESS AND WORDFUL WEDNESDAY

Snappy and TRex absolutely love to slide on the kitchen floor. I remember liking that when I was a kid too. Luckily, their dad likes this game too. Equipped with pillows, they all hit the floor last night.




Superheroes sliding on the floor. Doesn't get better than that!
Love me some Spider-TRex!


What was that?

Why yes. That is my daughter that absolutely insisted on wearing her brother's IronMan pajamas.


Crazy Kids.

Not Me Monday

This blog carnival was started by MckMama. Check out her blog for more Not Me Monday fun!

So, how was our weekend? Well, it was quiet. It was uneventful. It was relaxing. It was filled with the noises of brother and sister loving each other and playing peacefully. NOT!

I certainly did not have to tell the kids one zillion times to stop fighting. I did not almost lose my mind from the constant screaming. TRex has not become quite annoyed with Snappy. Snappy has not decided that everything must ...

Photographer Spotlight

Posted by Robin Haws on Friday, August 7, 2009, In : Photographer Spotlight 
I love photography. I love taking pictures. I love photoshopping. I love looking at pictures. I love really good photography and can appreciate all of it. It's in my blood, I suppose. My parents own a very successful photography studio and my mom's been taking pics for as long as I can remember. My husband has his photography business and I love to work with him and do my part. I absolutely adore scouring the web for really cool photographers. There are some extremely talented people out ther...

We did NOT spend last week and this weekend sweating, packing, moving and unpacking. It was NOT chaotic. The old house did NOT look like this...


Snappy did NOT try to help by unpacking boxes immediately after I packed them.
She also did not "help" by doing this...




It wasn't me that bribed the children with popsicles to keep them out of the way for a few minutes!
