D-day has come and gone!



Well, Gma and Gpa arrived safely...all the boxes have been moved in to the house, unpacking...that's a different story! My brother-in-law was kind enough to help Gma and Gpa move here AND refinish our hardwood floor in the Dining Room. It looks AWESOME!!! We still have lots to do, but the chaos has somewhat subsided. Super Girl has decided that 2 teeth on the bottom are just not enough and is attempting to cut 2 more on the top, however, both of them are on her left side...here comes SNAGGLETOOTH!!! But you know she will still be ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE! Super Boy has been in 7th heaven with Gma and Gpa, and all the other family that has been here. He is always wanting to play games, and for the past couple of days he's had so many people to play them with! Well, I should get going...I'll try to keep you all updated...thanks for reading!

Super Girl!





My daughter is so much fun! She is generally happy, but she doesn't like being without her mommy. She LOVES her brother and loves it when he plays with her. She also loves being thrown in the air and being tickled. She is always looking to explore and sometimes that gets her in trouble! But her cute, little smile and her personality make it easy to forgive her. I can't wait to see how much more fun she will be when she is older. She loves bath time and splashing in the water. She will love it when Gma and Gpa move in and can play with her anytime they want (except when she's sleeping of course!) She loves to eat and is now feeding herself well. She too likes to help with the construction upstairs. She is fascinated my tools, cords, remotes and phones! Don't worry, we unplugged the drill!

Super Boy!





My son is my Super Boy! He is so great! He is really nice, sweet, fun and cute too! He can't wait to start Kindergarten and is already reading! He is also very excited to have Gma and Gpa come live with us. He is a wonderful big brother and is always looking out for his little sister. He loves playing games and just having fun in general. He loves to help around the house and especially with all of the construction we have been doing. He is a great hugger and a wonderful blessing to our family.

Introducing Scrap Happy Mommy!


Hello World! I have been informed that proper blogging etiquette and safety suggests that no real names be used. So I am introducing you to me and my family! I am Scrap Happy Mommy! I LOVE to scrapbook, but I don't always get the time to do any scrapbooking...you see, I have 2 great kids, Super Boy and Super Girl. They keep me VERY busy. And if it isn't them, than it's a home improvement project or a "Honey Do" list from Tall Boy! So, please sit back and enjoy my crazy life!

Construction vs. DESTRUCTION!!!





For those of you who are new to my life, we are in the last leg of remodeling the main floor of our home. We are preparing for my in-laws to move in. It has been insane! We have been ripping up everything and replacing it. We just got some BEAUTIFUL new carpet today and I am so excited to be finishing soon! Here are some fun pictures (fun to me, boring to some) of our progress! As you can see in the 1st photo, the kitchen is probably the worst off. The 2nd photo is of the yellow room, 3rd is our carpet, and 4th is my favorite...the blue room! The whole house is off-white with white trim except the yellow and blue rooms (per Tall Boy's demands). I have been painting for so long...I am ready to be done, but there is one room left, the dining room...so I'd better get back to it!
