One of those days

Remember those moments I mentioned last night

"Times are hard, fun, tiring, exciting, trying & joyful. My sweet, cute, smiling, laughing, giggling, chatty little boy is not always little mr. perfect."

Well after staying up too late night and being extremely tired this morning. I got my little guy out of bed and put him in our loft area to watch a movie while I had a couple minutes to myself to wake up and brush my teeth. As I walked around the corner to the loft I noticed, what seemed to be, a white cloud coming down the hall. When I walked into the room, this is what I saw.

This is what a bottle of baby powder looks like when in the hands on a toddler.

LOL

It was EVERYWHERE and still floating in the air

There was nothing for me to really do but laugh and take pictures.

(and of course sweep up as much as I could)

"Happy Monday Mommy"

Oh I love this ornery little boy.

Its a Media Party

Hey everyone. I am excited to be linking up with Natasha in Oz for her social media linky party.
This is a great way to share all the different ways you can get to know one another! In the summer my blogging slows down and I focus on family and my shop. So if you want to see whats going on with me, these are a great place to follow along.

Facebook- Nat's Knapsack

You can also see what I have been working on here in my shop

for example:

I just added a new African Adoption Bracelet

and I am also Celebrating Christmas in July with a 25% off coupon code

Use code "25injuly" at checkout

Another FUN way to follow is instagram. I LOVE using this app. What a great way to share cute photos and a wonderful app to edit them. I have made some great friends just by following them on instagram. Come follow along @natsknapsack . You can follow along on your computer with Followgram. I would love to follow you back and see what all you are up to this summer. (This is where you will find me most right now)

Then of course there is Pinterest. What a brilliant idea. I have way too may pins and just as many boards. It is such an amazing way for me to store ideas, how to's, and want to's.

Are you on pinterest yet? If you need an invite, just let me know!

Find me HERE

I am a little slow with Twitter but am learning :) Follow me here

I am also learning more about google + after reading Natasha's post. I have a google + account but I don't know a lot about it.

Check out more on her linky party post.

Here is one really good bit of information I learn from here:

In a nutshell, clicking that little +1 button at the bottom of each of your posts does so much to help your search ranking because Google actually indexes Google+ posts and profiles and not the profiles of its competitors like Facebook and Twitter. 

So next time you visit me (and when you visit all of your bloggy friends) why notclick that +1 button! I know that I will be forever grateful if you do that for me!

If you want to join in here is some more info from Natasha
This linky party will be an opportunity for us to to do a bit of bloggy networking!

If you would like to join in here's what you need to do:

1. Write a blog post that features all the different ways that you are social! Include all the details we would need to find you at all of your social media outlets. Provide us with links to your Twitter profile, your Facebook page, your instagram address, your pinterest boards, your Google profile, your Tumblr blog, Etsy Page..everything!

Hope you will join in (July 14th) and get to know some amazing ladies

My last couple weeks...

Sorry for my lack of posting these last weeks.

2 weeks ago my son got really sick and this passed weekend my father in law was in the hospital. So... life has been a little crazy. I have been meaning to get on here and fill everyone in and there just aren't enough hours in the day. :)

I still feel like I don't have the right words to express my days... so instead you get my life in pictures.

My beautiful family!

My poor little sick boy taking a nap with his daddy- love!

Finally when he was up and about and feeling ornery.

I had my back turned for just a bit putting in a dvd. LOL

Then this passed weekend my father in law was in the hospital.

I am so thankful that after 3 days he was able to go home and is doing much better!!

This was hilarious! We found out he could go home!

My sweet little boy finally feeling 100% and spending time with my parents

while my husband and I were at the hospital

I am in love with this picture of my dad pushing my son!

PRICELESS!!

Check out my little tree climber!!

At almost 20 months he is a dare devil!

This is heaven! My favorite pizza ever!

I never eat pepperoni but love it here

My sweet little taking a nap after falling asleep on me. ahhhh love it!

I was so excited to be able to visit my grandma aka GiGi

She just turned 73!

And here is my little man!

Here turned 20 months TODAY!

I can't believe we have a 20 month old already!

My big boy!

I would love to see what you have been up to!

Link up a post from your blog to share with me!

Its Whatever Wednesdays!

Share a bit about yourself, whats going on in your life. Maybe link up a craft, a home renovation, anything really... just as long as its from your blog.

Here are just some simple requests:

Please link back to my blog to help spread the word

Make sure you link up to a specific post and not your main blog page

Take some time and visit others in the party! Its a great way to meet new friends!
