Carnival Night

We took the children to our local firemen's carnival last night. A good time was had by all.







At the end of the night Mason lost his first tooth. He was very excited to have the tooth fairy visit last night.

And, speaking of the tooth fairy, a few weeks ago we noticed that Taylor (our eldest) had lost a few teeth without telling us. He decided to put each one under his pillow to see what would happen. Well ... you can guess what happened. Nothing.

Poor Taylor! Does he know the truth about the tooth fairy now then?

The second photo with the thing which goes round and round, that scares me. I still remember being on one of those and then being sick in the car after that.

Perhaps you ned to invent a tooth fairy bag/pouch for teeth to be put in over a certain age? Rapidly trying to think of Tooth fairy excuses. :-)

Love all the thrifted fabrics. Can't wait to see what you make from them.

Looks like a great time! That is too funny - Taylor not telling you about the teeth. How does he feel about it?

Looks like they had a wonderful time! I hope your son wasn't too disappointed about not getting anything for his teeth.

Reusable Swiffer WetJet Cloths

Image
I promised myself that, when I bought a box of Swiffer WetJet refills at the wholesale club, it would be the last box I bought. Something had to be done. Now, to be honest, part of the reason was to help the environment, but the other part was because I was tired of running out of those darn things. I took some towels, folded them in half cut them into 5" widths. (The towel was just about 25" or so from side to side when flat.) Then I cut two 5" pieces of elastic and serged it all together. Two layers of toweling and two elastic strips. That's it. (The finished piece was approximately 4.75" x 12.") Within minutes I had a stack of eight. Slide them on and mop away. You will have a clean floor and have saved one more thing from ending up in the landfill. Now, if I can just do something about the cleaning liquid ... Something environmentally-friendly, economical, and won't cause further pain to my arthritic back.

39

It's that time of year again. The one that seems to come faster and closer every year. Yes, today I am 39. (That means I'm almost 40! Aaaahh!) To keep in tradition with years' past , I decided to do a list of things you might not know about me . (My best friend loves these posts, so this is in honor of her. You know who you are.) I ran 1 3/4 miles this morning. I gained 3-4 pounds after Sawyer weaned himself this year. Since starting to run, Joe has said that my thighs are "as tight as when we were first married." I didn't realize my thighs weren't tight. Hmmm. I guess six kids can do that to you. I need a new mattress. We bought our last mattress when I was in labor with Carter . That was ten years ago. We also bought a set of bunk beds that day. I want a new sofa. Actually two new sofas. I'm waiting until Sawyer is potty-trained. I'm planning on training him as soon as school lets out in June. Sometimes I plan ahead. Sometimes I procrasti
