Once again I found some time to participate in one of my favorite bloggy carnivals. This is like no other that I have found yet because it really gets you to focus on what is important in life...those that we love.
This past week was a tough one....baby crying lots, kids fighting, marriage issues and busy busy busy. I got through it and am one day closer to having a much slower life in a week and a half...not too mention seeing my husband graduate and we are all so flippin excited about that.
Back to my YGMTM.....
I have a couple moments.....like this one this morning........
This is my monkey from when I was little, he was and still is precious to me jsut like the monkey that put him here. This is Sammy's idea of putting away the toys I guess. I left him up there because I kind of like the company and the idea that it was Sam who put it there...he is a strange child but we love him anyway!I also will miss seeing this in my living room.........
I of course love to construct them I just dislike the criticism I receive from my 6 year old!Last night I helped out at our Mom's Morning Out used clothing and toy sale...OH THE DEALS I got!!! It was another successful sale and I wanted to take pictures to post and totally forgot...you all would be amazed at what a well oiled machine (wink wink April) this sale is. It's a whole lot of work by many people and it usually goes amazingly well. I love being part of it and I love when I get home and my kids think the stuff they got (all used) is cool. Here is my Princess Sasha with an outfit (jeans, top and shoes) with Ariel the Little Mermaid on them (her favorite princess).

And I did purchase 4 toys..got of rid of much more. Sasha wanted this stroller and diaper bag. Did I mention her outfit (not the sweater) cost $10.00...including shoes!
I will miss this because right now they don't care if it's brand name, where it came from or how much it cost. All she cares about is that it's pink and has Ariel on it. I hope I do a good enough job parenting that they will never care about brand name stuff, but I know first hand how much peer pressure can be hard to veer away from.And I will REALLY MISS THIS, because I am 99.5% sure this is my last baby and he is growing up waaayyyyy to fast.
