Effects of a Child
A child will make
love stronger,
days shorter,
nights longer,
the home happier,
the past forgotten,
and the future
worth living for.

Effects of a Child
My new favorite cookies!
Well, the secret is out. I have a sweet tooth. I made these cookies the other day and they are to DIE FOR! They are called Oatmeal Butterscotch Chip Cookies. I actually just found them on the back of the bag of butterscotch chips. They are super yummy! They have become my favorite cookies by far! Try 'em!
Collaboration
So, I need your help. Here are a few of the animals that I will using to make my Luvi Blankets out of. These are new and different from the other animals I used to use. These animals are more colorful and vibrant than the other animals I used to use.
The dilemma you ask?
Which minkee fabric do I use for the "blanket part"? Do I use more vibrant colors that match the animals? (Like bright green, orange, blue, etc.) Or do I still stick with the more mellow colors? To maybe offset the vibrancy of color in the animals?
Think about it in terms of what you want your child to be carrying around...which one you would be more inclined to purchase.

Thanks so much for your feedback!
This is a picture of one my old Luvi Blankets, just so you can see the difference in color, and also for those of you who don't know what a Luvi Blanket is: this is it! :) It is the head on one end of the blanket and the feet on the other, with the blanket in between. :) This way the child gets their favorite stuffed animal and blanket all in one! (The blanket roughly measures about 18"x18" without the animal attached.)
Here are just a few of the new animals I will be using for the Luvi Blankets:
Treasure the Time
Do you see her cell phone in her purse...she is only 16 months old!
Where has the time gone? What has happened to my baby girl? They grow up to fast. Treasure those special moments...they go by quickly.
One of those days
Scented Play dough
I found this on new website that I just love! It is called http://mom.lifetips.com/. They have great tips for new moms and also great tips for very experienced moms too!
I think I will try this recipe with my daughter, she loves to play with anything that she can stick her fingers in. lol! ( i.e. olives, mashed potatoes, flour, corn flakes...) Don't know where she got it from! But maybe she will like this play dough.
homemade scented play dough
Make homemade scented play dough with your children. Mix 2 1/2 cups of flour with 1/2 cup of salt. Add 2 envelopes of kool-aid (any flavor except lemonade). Meanwhile, bring 2 cups of water to the boil. Add the boiling water and 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil to the dry ingredients. Mix together. Be careful, it will be hot for a little while. Let the kids play with the scented dough. Dough can be stored in plastic bags for a few days.
