Pink Saturday


Happy Pink Saturday Everybody!!! Today is Pink Saturday's First Birthday!!! Please join me in thanking Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for hosting this fabulous event every week!

Today we have a hodgepodge of everything PINK that has happened here this week......In honor of Pink Saturday's Birthday, we decided to bake a pink cake. Baby Daughter really likes to mix, but of course licking the beater is her favorite part. We did actually manage to keep her from getting it back in the bowl for more. She had just come out of the bath & was only wearing a fitted diaper & Thirsties cover.
The middle kids had fun mixing the batter too!

The kids & I had an adventure yesterday.....we got to tour the SwaddleBees/Blueberry Diaper warehouse! We were participating in a contest that I will write about in a few days and the wonderful owner offered us a tour!

Here you see one of the many boxes of Pink diapers waiting to be packaged & shipped out.

These are adorable diaper covers that are currently available at an unbelievable price from their outlet page.

This mostly empty box is all the pink Blueberry Coveralls they had in stock.....these are soooo popular they had almost NONE in the whole warehouse. Baby Daughter has one in a Cow print, but now really wants a pink one too!

Another variety of super soft Pink diapers!


Don't you just LOVE the pink Camo? This is a fuzzy soft Minky Pocket Diaper! Baby Daughter picked one of these up & almost wouldn't give it back!


Now for your sweet tooth, my oldest daughter & I found these Strawberry Milkshake limited edition Oreo cookies on a trip to Walmart this week! Yum, the inside is a creamy strawberry frosting, not too sweet, but oh so yummy!


We also found these gorgeous roses! My oldest daughter wanted to buy them ALL, but unfortunately flowers aren't in the budget right now so we opted to take pictures of them to enjoy instead.


And not to be left out, here is my middle daughter showing off her new pink flotation swimsuit

Flashback Friday

Sorry the quality of the photo is so poor, it is a picture of a picture. This is ME (& my oldest) taken in early June 1987. Hubby, my brother, two of our friends & I went to a really cool Renaissance Festival for the weekend. I'm about 6 months pregnant in this picture & wearing my favorite maternity T....it says "Under Construction" (just in case anybody looking at me has any doubts about WHY my belly has gotten so BIG)

Three Things This Thursday



1. Once a month I answer phones for the food bank our church supports. Today's the day. I enjoy feeling like I'm doing something to help, but I always come home feeling like there is so much more NEED than there are resources in our community to help.


2. The first week of Summer Vacation has gone pretty well. We had a couple days of rain, but so far the kids are getting along & enjoying the freedom that Summer brings.


3. I've been entering lots & lots of giveaways this week. In a few weeks I'll be hosting a giveaway for the first time. The kids & I are busy getting to know the product so we can give an honest opinion of it.
