Comes with a little music edition

Accidental Photograph

I know that not everyone is into this type of music but my husband's band just released their new ep last week. The Husband had a hand in writing two the songs and is currently hitting the road to help promote it. Take a listen and if you know someone who is into good old fashioned party rock pass it on.

A Thousand Words: I'm losing my voice edition

I'm fighting off Mastitis and Laryngitis but I wanted to share this:

On the giveaway front: I was wondering if I could ask a favour of my readers. The page views on the giveaway review post are up but entries are at a big zero.

I've checked out the post on my computer, on my iphone and on the husband's laptop and the rafflecopter widget seems to be working fine from these devices but your input would help. Usually a giveaway here has at least some entries made on the first day of the post but no entries after three days makes me wonder if there's something more going on. The software up for grabs really is fantastic and I'd love to be able to give one of my readers a copy for them to get creative with. If there's a technical glitch I'd love to know so that I can restart the giveaway without the widget and gather entries the old fashioned way. If you've got time and can hop over to the post and let me know if there are any glitches that I haven't been able to see?

It feels like a long time coming and going outside without a warm coat and a hat is still a risk here but spring is arriving, better late than never...

If you ask me, the light cast through new leaves is
the epitome of spring time heraldry

And of course nothing says, "I love you Mommy"
as much as fist full of dandelions

In other news; the Peanut, the Husband and I have managed between the three of us to make a pretty Mothers Day gift for the Grandma's and Great Grandma for next month. In the process I've learned that working around the Bean is going to require lots of Teamwork and patience.

A Thousand Words: a little more than that edition

My time is totally taken up by the ever tasty combination of the Peanut Butter Pie and the Jelly Bean. Tuesday and Wednesday of this week we had whole day excursions that orbited around seeing the Doctor.

Tuesday was the Peanut's 4-5 year shot. Needed to get her into school next year. Yesterday was the comb post partum and 6 week baby visit; our last at the maternity clinic. The Peanut was awesome with her needle, a small yelp and then happy to pick a sticker. The Bean is up to 12lb 12 oz from her birth weight of 9lb 2.5oz. I am back to wearing pre-pregnancy pants since yesterday's trip involved me yanking my pants up every few feet. If you look at this week's thousand word image you can see that it's all totally worth it.

she has us completely wrapped around her little fist (since her
hands stay in fisticuffs most of the time and fingers are
somewhat rare these days) with that smile

One of my favourite things about snuggling is

What? It isn't common place to dress up like a dragon and play
dinosaurs in front of the tree anymore?

I'm very behind on a lot of things. In addition to a lot of surprise laundry I'll be writing up tomorrows 5 question feature today and hopefully starting to fill out holiday cards.

To all my American readers, Happy Thanksgiving, I hope your turkey coma's are satisfying and followed by pumpkin pie overdose.

One of the advantages of building a snowman with your Daddy
is that said snowman will be about your height.

Oh, yeah, the Black Friday sale at PeanutButterPie starts at 6:00pm tonight. Some items may be on sale before this time as I'm using the Etsy On Sale App which can take up to an hour to adjust prices. I hope to see you there!
