today… was a Monday

Not much to report here for this Monday – thank goodness it didn’t turn out like last Monday for sure!

Wanted to post a few clips from the past few days…

New “Meredith” folded note

I need to find a way to do previews for the pens & drinkware & stuff that I don’t have time to photograph… I did a few really cute pens & memo holders today but of course, I have nothing to show for them b/c I absolutely do not have time to take pics let alone edit them, since my picture taking skills are the pits. 

So, I guess you will just have to settle for nothing on those products for now – until I spend the $15 grand I was quoted over the weekend for a previewing website… ((geez!!)) I guess that’s what I get for having too many choices :) 

I did manage to preview some of the new pillowcases that have been quite popular since their intro…

and a new note cube…

& a CUTIE PIE!!

and another precious cutie :)

and how about a cute folded note to match…

and mom wanted some stickers w/her name on them.  I started doing a 3x2 sticker that I haven’t added to the cart yet…

off to bed… :)

Quick Friday post

Headed off to carpool but had to share…

look at little chichi up there :)  ain’t she cute??

happy weekend!!!!

I am way behind on so much right now – sorry for any delays that I’ve caused… my daughter was in the ER w/a heart episode & my father in law had a heart attack – both things happened on the same day this week so we have been so exhausted w/all this going on. What I had planned on being a very productive week has turned into a flop.  :(

Spring Break coming to a close

As things wind down this week, the silence to come will be deafening for sure… but much needed!  When the two year old says to you, “Mom, I see Ms. Amy now” you know it’s time to be back in the swing of school days. 

We’ve been enjoying our wonderful Nanny’s Wii… so much that Dad now wants one.  Geez… I think I’ve convinced the kids to tap in to the “Disney jar” that we forgot to cash in for our most recent trip to buy the said Wii – what’cha think?  I think it’s fair game since the Bippity Boppity Boutique came out of my pocket this year.  As did all the junk purchases & game room (thanks to Gramma).

While the kids (older 2) enjoyed the Zephyr’s Baseball game, I stayed home to work… yeah! 

I did get a much needed email, though… thanks Jill ;)

Here’s a few new happies for your Friday night.  Have a great weekend!
