Summer is Almost Here!

Okay, so I guess I thought I was back to blogging...

I'm just having too much fun with my little man.

We are so happy summer is almost here!

One of Noah's favorite outdoor activities lately

has been playing with bubbles! He went through an

entire 15 oz bottle of bubbles today and still wanted more.

Here are a couple of my favorite shots of him playing today.

Embrace the Camera

I'm back!!!

I really didn't intend to take a 3 month break

from the blog, but it ended up being just what I needed.

Thanks for sticking around when it was so quiet around here!

-----------------------

Mommy & Noah being silly.

We're embracing the camera, yo!

Blog Tutorial and a Winner!

So, I'm not sure I can exactly call this a

tutorial because, really, there isn't much to it.

But, I thought I'd go ahead and post about it because:

a. It's a blog setting that is just in a weird place.

{I kept looking under the settings tab and could never find it}.

b. I love helping you all beautify your blogs by giving

you the resources you need to customize it to your liking.

c. I want to remember where I found

this setting in case I ever decide to change it. :)

Okay, so the "setting" I'm talking about

is how to customize the comments wording.

If you already know how to do this, then just skip

this first part and scroll to the bottom to see

who won the Hello, Good Gravy giveaway.

1. Click the design tab

{Your screen will look like the pic below}.

2. In the blog posts box click Edit

3. This box {pictured below} will pop up.

The green arrow is pointing to the box where

you can customize it to say whatever you'd like.

There are a bunch of different

settings in this box, so have fun with it. :)

4. Then click save.

And last but certainly not least,

we have ourselves a winner of the

Hello, Good Gravy giveaway!

Congrats to Angie of The Lingo Family.

I'll be sending you an email. :)

The Desktop Picture

This may be one of those funny stories where

you just had to be there, but I'm telling it anyway

because it was just too cute not to share.

Here is a screenshot of the

desktop background on Josh's laptop:

The other day Josh sat down at his laptop

and started laughing and then he asked me,

"Did you?? You didn't do this, did you?"

I was in the kitchen at the time, so I walked

over to the laptop and this is what I saw:

Josh and I looked at each other and

we just laughed and laughed and laughed.

Guess Mr. Noah thought Daddy needed a new

picture, so he took it upon himself to change it.

Oh, it was so funny!

So, it just goes to show, if a two year old

can work a computer, anybody can!

Whatever Works

Here are some of my favorite outtakes of Noah modeling

the hats Mary sent him for the giveaway post.

{This would not have happened without a bag of candy!}

Whatever works, right?

-----

I'm serious woman. If you don't give me the

candy you promised, this hat is coming off!

Candy... now!!

Okay. Now go ahead... snap away.

Yummmmy candy!

A ring pop and Andes mints! She hooked me up!

What? You want me to smile?

Sorry Mom. That was not part of the deal.

I Heart Faces: Cell Phone Pic

iheartfaces photo challenge this week is to post

a cell phone pic. This is definitely one of my favorites.

I was making mac & cheese one day for lunch, so

I had the cheese all cut and ready to throw in the pan.

Before I knew it, Mr. Noah was standing on his step stool

stealing all the cheese! I couldn't keep his little hands out of it.

Little stinker!

What a sweet memory. :)
