Feeding the Ducks

louducks7
We had some old hamburger buns that I was going to throw out the other day and Dave gave me a great idea of taking London to feed the ducks.  She loved it!  She thought it was so funny, all of the ducks swimming over to us.  I just wish Dave could have been there with us!  It was really hard to try and snap a good picture of London, while also trying to keep her from going in the water!

So my mom and Dave’s mom both have an iPad.  Since we live with Dave’s parents right now (only 1 more week!!) and since my mom watches Lou when I work, London is very familiar with the iPad and LOVES it!!  I try not to let her play with it as much as
I can help it, but it really is a lifesaver while I am cooking and she wants me to hold her the whole time.  I can usually give her the iPad and she is content.  The question now is….what am I going to do now that we moved and there is no more iPad??

Messy Face

London is a serious eater!  I just don’t know where she puts it all!  These pictures were from Golden Corral with some of Dave’s family.  Just had to share them!

Dance!

I have a little dancer on my hands!!  I love to watch her!  I wish I could have gotten a better video, but of course everytime I go to record, she stops.

Onesies

My sewing “business” (I don’t know how to refer to it), has definitely been keeping me busy.  I just wanted to post a few of my recent creations.  I have been doing a lot of vest/ties lately, but others as well.  I have loved some of the things people have come up with for me to make!  All of the stuff I make are custom to what my customers want!

Liebster Blog award

I have been awarded the Liebster blog award from my sister, Kristin.   Liebster is German for up and coming. I was flattered to see that she had picked me.  I am glad to know that someone is still reading my blog after my long hiatus.

Rules:
1. Choose five up and coming blogs to give the award to. Must have less than 200 followers.
2. Show your thanks to the blogger who gave you the award by linking back to them.
3. Post the award on your blog.
4. List the blogs you gave the award to with links to their sites. Leave a comment on their blog to let them know they have received the award.
5. Share five random facts about yourself.

My list of 5 bloggers who deserve this award also are:

  1. My high school friend Tanshyle.  I love reading her blog.  It is all about the life of a stay at home mom.  And it is hilarious.  She does not sugar coat anything, but tells it how it is, and that’s why I love this blog!
  2. Stephanie has been one of my best friends since high school.  I love reading her blog too.  She is also a stay at home mom to two cute boys!  She lives in CA and I love seeing all the fun things she does with her kiddos.
  3. The next blog belongs to Mike and Sarah.  Mike is Dave’s younger brother and Sarah is his wife.  They are more recent to the blogging world, but I love staying caught up on their cute little Maddie and their fun adventures.
  4. I went to Snow College with Brittany.  I love Brittany’s style.  Even though her blog is about her life and her family, she includes her fashion tips and her fun finds.  Brittany has always been miss fashion to me.  She is so cute and her blog is very vintage.
  5. The last blog I want to give this award to is my cousin Elise.  Her and her husband recently welcomed their second (a very special and much awaited Angel!)  I love to read about this sweet little boy and his journey here.
My 5 random facts (this was harder than it should have been):  
  1. I can talk with my mouth closed.  In high school, we used to play jokes on people and call out their name only to watch them look around and see who’s looking for them!
  2. I hate the feel of concrete on my barefeet, it freaks me out.  I think I get this from my dad.  I makes me cringe to watch London play and run around on our sidewalk without shoes on.
  3. I secretly wish I actually had a good singing voice.  I use to think I could sing, but I think I might be one of those people who gets laughed at on American Idol for trying out and actually thinking they can sing.  Oh well, I still belt it out in the car, and I enjoy it!!
  4. Dave and I would love to take a food roadtrip.  By that I mean, visiting all those yummy places they tempt you with on all the food shows.  Like the best thing I ever ate, or diners, drive ins, and dives, etc. 
  5. I am a HUGE list maker.  I think it relieves stress when things are physically written down, and I can cross them off when they are finished.  I have lists about lists, lol.

Shoes

The other day we went into Foot Locker so Dave could try on some new shoes.  London was in heaven wandering around, trying to pull on the shoes off display.

When Dave was brought out a pair to try on, London had to join in!

We love this girl!

Entertainment

London’s stroller (or anything with buckles) can keep her entertained for quite awhile.  She loves to do up the buckles.  The only problem is she can’t undo them by herself.  This was the other morning when we got home from our walk.  She likes to open and close the arm as well, and then climb under it to get in.

And for your entertainment.  London has starting to “hide” in some funny places.  Can you see her?  LOL.
