Thought I'd post a pic of Tisha's gorgeous smile for ya! Isn't she adorable! I could just waste entire days staring at her...

Well.. it's been a busy week. Yesterday was a snowday for the kids.. thank god I have nice neighbours.. and they have a snowblower.. we'd still be digging out now if it wasn't for them.. I think I'll make them some cookies.. especially after the little jacket they brought over for Tisha the other day.. purple eeyore jacket.. made out of the same fabric as her favorite blankie! So since I had the day off of driving around like usual yesterday I spent the day painting the kids rooms. I did Tisha's in yellow and the boys wanted all the walls different colors.. so they have two yellow walls a green wall and a blue wall :) it looks pretty good but definitely needs a second coat of paint. I had no idea just how dark the paint that was up actually was.. until I put this stuff on top and saw the contrast.. their rooms look so much bigger and happier now. The boys want a mural on the one wall.. so I'm going to do the blue wall.. add some clouds, a rainbow, a tree.. grass.. gotta think what else to add in there.. I'm going to do one in Tisha's room too.. it's just too bare all yellow.. it's crying out for some art.. so I'm going to do a palm tree and some animals around where her toys are and over her change table, to match her bedding.

I was happy to find some doll clothes at please mum that fit my cpk's so I picked the kids each up a new outfit for their cpks.
Rocky looks especially cute in his little camo sweater..Just like his "dad" Andrew.. lol

I'm just burnin doing the neutron dance!

Well.. I guess it's about time I updated here.. It's been a few weeks.. but honestly.. not much has happenned.. I've been selling off a lot of my dolls and the clothes I make for them to try and save up for a new softie.. ended up deciding against a new softie as I don't want to make the ones I have less special.. I think I will just work on my soft sculpting a bit more and see what I can come up with.. I've been really improving with it.. figured out a few more things.. like really pulling the stitches a lot tighter than I was before.. and putting a stitch between the eyes to form the bridge of the nose before making the eyes and mouth.. my noses have gotten a lot better too.. so I'm pretty excited about that.. I managed to adopt out a couple softies this month... so that's nice that I'll have a bit of grocery money.. I don't understand what's been happenning lately but we are freaking broke. I don't know if all the bills just went u

ways to stretch a dollar..

someone asked this in one of my clubs.. if i knew any ways to save $$ here was my response. Shop for kids on boxing day.. buy big sizes... this saves me a bundle on my kids winter clothes.. I get everything 75% off on boxing week.. (at zellers.. in canada) Never be scared to check the clearance rack/section.. you never know what you're going to find..I got GAP shirts for my kids brand new for 2.99 each because they had found them in the back room.. old navy sometimes has good clearance too.. Stock up on the weekly meat special.. I get pork tenderloin for 1.99CA a pound.. and pork chops.. and steak.. and chicken breasts.. and just buy up a pile of what's on sale.. that way my freezer is always full of yummy meat. call up your credit card company and ask them for a lower rate.. odds are.. they have one. Always ask for a discount on big purchases like appliances.. you will probably get one. use layaway instead of credit whenever possible. check online for recipes for fast food..
