Happy Saturday!!

It has been SUCH a busy Saturday today!! Well, we're probably not as busy as MOST people are on a Saturday, but for Alex and I it was. :) John has started to work Saturdays again for the past few weeks so Alex and I usually just chill at home during the day. We had to run errands today though, HOURS of them. It's my fault, I just put everything off all week. We went to the park after that, then came home. I got to sit down and watch a movie while Alex napped. It was amazing! It's been so long since that's actually happened! lol.

Here's a couple cards that I've finished so far. My LSS just got these new Anna Griffen, Crate Paper and Prima papers. They are soo bright, happy and pretty and they all go so well together! I'm having a ton of fun with them today. Today is a "card day" because I've been in a card making mood all day. :)



Here's a layout from earlier this week:


Love love love that pic of my Grandpa and Alex! :) You all knew that though!

Here are a few pics of my boys that I took at the park the other week. I love taking photos of them playing together, so cute! :) I have a TON of these park pics, I've just been lazy and haven't edited most of them yet.







OH, Alex has just recently entered his "Why?" stage. It's kinda cute, but drives me nuts at the same time! This is how many of our conversations go:

Me: Alex, take your toys to you bedroom please.

Alex: Why?

Me: Because we need to clean the living room.

Alex: Why?

Me: Because it's messy and we need to clean it.

Alex: Why?

Me: Because I'm your mom and I said so.

Alex: Why?

Me: Because I'm super smart and the best mom in the whole world!

I have to take advantage of the situation and brain wash my son a little bit. ;) Maybe it'll stick with him later on! lol. I love that Alex is to the point where I can pretty much have full conversations with him. He's so smart! :D It's so fun to just hang out with him every day, now that he's growing into more and more of an actual little person. You know what I mean? He calls me his best friend, it's so cute!

Well I hope everyone is having a great weekend! I am exhausted and going to bed before 10 PM on a Saturday, sad huh?? :D

Love,
Jill

Aww how cute is that convo! Samantha tells me Imher best friend too and thee best ever! Esteban is a little brain wash...hahaha....He is forever trying to sneak up on me and Im always telling him I see you! He gets upset and tells me "MOM, HOW DID YOU KNOW I WAS THERE?" I then told him, "WELL IM MOM AND I KNOW EVERTHING!" So now when I say I see you or come out from there too any of the kiddos, he will say "REMEMBER SHE IS MOM AND MOM KNOWS EVERYTHING!" I love it!!!!!!
