Dont worry people..it's not as serious as it sounds! You see, Jacob is a Mama's boy (as was Jordan), and he has gotten to the point that he doesn't want to sleep unless I'm holding him (or feeding him..ouch!) And it's just time for me to put a stop to it. Which means putting him down in his crib, and walking away. It kills me, I hate it, makes me feel like a mean mama. I did this with Jordan too. The first night, he screamed for 3 hours straight! The second night, for probly 2 hours. The third night, about 30 minutes. And from then on, he was just fine all by himself. So, I know it's gonna be ok eventually. Right now it just sucks. Sorry Jake.<img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5714285415137716738" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6UZwy-nO_zw/T004Tzp6qgI/AAAAAAAAAMQ/Ogu1R2B4j70/s320/DSC04284.JPG" /></div></div>Linzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06329711504105390093noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4963416344484823393.post-39794862777854317602012-02-14T13:48:00.017-08:002012-02-21T12:21:23.723-08:00Love Bugs<div><div align="center"><br />I know it was like a week ago,</div><div align="center">But I'm a slacker.</div><div align="center">And I totally flaked on posting my Valentines Project.</div><div align="center">So, regardless of it's tardiness.</div><div align="center">Here it is....</div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">I knew I wanted to get the kids goodie bags for their Valentines Day loot.</div><div align="center">And I found some super-cute ones at Wal-mart...but they were $10 a piece! </div><div align="center">UM...no.</div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">So, I made these treat bags for my little love bugs!</div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center"> <img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5711679414422361714" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zeZifxC4GG4/T0P2KmeOVnI/AAAAAAAAAI4/OQmP-ph6Gjk/s320/DSC01084.JPG" /></div><div align="center"> Jordan's "Woo-woo"</div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">he began his life as 2 hearts cut from felt (the dog, not Jordan) hehe</div><div align="center"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5711680724119351538" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-23sME4UT-X0/T0P3W1eUcPI/AAAAAAAAAJ0/Q6Tu3qdO5K0/s320/DSC01073.JPG" /><br />and then the rest was just cut from felt and hot-glued</div><div align="center"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5711680010221609218" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-JcMAyr9azK0/T0P2tR_1YQI/AAAAAAAAAJQ/0AyObSSCOb4/s320/DSC01075.JPG" />And a ribbon handle to top it all off</div><div align="center"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5711683068636272018" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-iOjq0TuMyew/T0P5fTetlZI/AAAAAAAAAKk/oZU-BejMhEs/s320/DSC01082.JPG" /></div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">And Hannah's lady Bug:</div><div align="center"><br /> </div><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5711683371249853746" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-WsyU2XxdFUk/T0P5w6zaZTI/AAAAAAAAAKw/DwGEvSEENMg/s320/DSC01089.JPG" /><div align="center"><br /><br />Same basic concept, 2 felt heart hearts, felt shapes for features, ribbon for buggy legs,</div><div align="center">and the good "ol glue gun</div><div align="center"> <img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5711683706504509282" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xdMDGqSmi94/T0P6EbuWd2I/AAAAAAAAAK8/TKaO_d321SY/s320/DSC01087.JPG" /></div><div align="center"><br />Then I added their names with fabric paint</div><div align="center"><br /> <img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5711684346063302162" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-qBjUCHwmgcg/T0P6pqRDLhI/AAAAAAAAALI/UsUCO9_2GcE/s320/DSC01090.JPG" /></div><div align="center"><br />and the goodies!</div><div align="center"><br /></div><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5711684723473454914" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-28u9Z6EA41I/T0P6_oOpF0I/AAAAAAAAALU/TC6Aw-4fVOo/s320/DSC01091.JPG" /><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5711685109171257810" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ek4Ilvpd0_A/T0P7WFEKgdI/AAAAAAAAALg/COWkqWPBgEM/s320/DSC01092.JPG" /><p align="center">And then I hid them in the breadbox!</p><div><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 320px; height: 240px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5711685748378140642" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-rZtxXOlvYYk/T0P77SS9f-I/AAAAAAAAAL4/-PWz7PXkSo8/s320/DSC01093.JPG" /></div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">They loved their little bags.
