Strawberry Pancakes

This inspired me.

Ever have those moments that

something pops in your head!

Ding!

Chocolate chip pancakes...what can I do with

that to make them

hmmm

interesting.

Ding!

This morning I tried my hand at some

free art. Whoa. What I had

invisioned took a while

to materialize.

But after a few tries I got it.

Granted they are not

perfect, but what

strawberry is.

Next time though

I will do it a little different.

Hubby thought when I said I was gonna make strawberry pancakes

that they were going to be strawberry flavored.

He appreciated it so much that he came up

with something a little different.

We didnt take a picture of it because he

too thought it would be really easy to

do.

I had used a baking mix for the pancakes. I added a few things to my

batter to make it 'mine'. 

Vanilla malt and almond flavoring. Sorry, but

I use a dump method.

 Divided it up and added

food coloring. When I divided it I had more batter for the red

then I did for the green.

Once I poured the red batter on I added chocolate chips

to it before it set up.

Strawberries in winter.

Snow!

Again!!

We have had a total of 90" this winter.

That is more than we have

had in the past.

And yes, we are total foodies!

 I should

weigh like 5,000 lbs.

Baby Days to Remember

I gotta say it..

She is so cute! This is an

older picture, but she is still

so dang cute!

She has a little more hair now than she

did in this picture.

She still sucks those two fingers.

She is learning to sleep though

the night (Thank you baby!)

Stood all by herself Friday.

Soon will be

walking on

her own.

Today I decided to take her with me while I got my hair cut.

When the second one comes along you just don't get

the time with them that your oldest got.

When I went to have Miss J I felt guilty. Almost like

I was cheating on little G.

It has been the greatest thing to watch

their relationship blossom.

Next month Miss J will turn 1. When I had her she cried and cried.

The poor girl was not happy. Well, in less I held her. The nurse

had said that she "has spirit". I loved the way

she had put that and told her that was

exactly it.

Over the past few weeks I have looked back at

how she was verses now. She has

had a tremendous amount

of growth in every

aspect. It has

been the most

amazing transformation.

The most wonderful transformation.

Today after getting my haircut, shopping was next.

Poor girl was wore out. The sweetest thing

to see a little baby all peacefully

asleep in their carseat.

These are the days to remember!

If you are anything

like me you have this

massive to do

list of

crafty things

you want to get done.

This morning I got one crossed off.

I went to Picnik and

began playing around with it

to see what I

could come up with.

So many things you can do with it.

I love all these programs

that allow you to explore your creativity.
