Okay, it's going to take me longer than I thought to show you that other baby shower gift. Meanwhile, I bring you:
More things that make me happy:
My calendar: I'm loving it! It is good quality and gorgeous. It is a bright spot in my house when it's grey and snowy out!
And suddenly I am a photo-calendar expert, so I have to tell you that I would recommend the Costco one over Shutterfly. I got an offer from Shutterfly for a free calendar, and I ordered one for my mom - the site is harder to work with and there weren't nearly as many color and layout options as Costco. And.. it reguarly costs twice as much. Just so you know.
Last month I found this book while thrifting. It is unused, and Aaron says he used to have it when he was little. We scanned a few pages and printed them (so as not to use them all up) and we made lots of little paper cars, trucks, and buses. So cute!
Princess got out and shoveled the driveway for me last week.
That was something on the list of things she could do to earn extra
money. She has not spent a cent of her allowance ($1/week started
about a year ago) and has earned a few extra dollars here and there.
She's been saving up for an American Girl doll and the shoveling put
her over the top. Emily should be arriving this week.
I thought she was going to have a hard time waiting until she arrives, but she says she's not because she has a lot of preparation for the Welcome Home Emily Tea Party she is planning.
Sheesh! But she is her mother's daughter! :)
