  • DIY Christmas Cards

    -In my latest blog I had posted some really cute Christmas cards which you could purchase from several invitation websites. If you are more of a do-it-yourself kind of gal you might want to check out some of the cards I’ve put together. I went to TwoPeasinabucket.com and found tons of creative digital scrapbook downloads. All you have to do is insert a picture into the photo card, print and you’re ready to send them out to the family! The prices are also very reasonable. Click on the link below to get to their website and under shopping search for Christmas in the Digital Kits category. Good-luck 🙂  Here are some of the cards I’ve put together from some of my old pictures.

  • Working Moms

    – It’s been a while since I’ve last posted anything and I want to apologize to all of my subscribers. Not only have I been extremely busy with family issues but I have also gone back to work. I feel very blessed that I was able to spend the first two years of my daughters life with her at home. Although we are still getting use to this huge change in our lives , I feel like she is really starting to enjoy daycare. Now don’t get me wrong, the first week or so was heart wrenching. There were many tears shed on both of our parts. It seems to get easier and easier as the days go on. Now I just have to figure out how to pack our weekends full of fun activities and this new time change doesn’t make it very easy. With Thanksgiving and Christmas around the corner our days seem to become more and more busy. There is shopping for presents, baking for your child’s class and planning your own holiday dinners! It never seems to end. Yet with all of the stress of trying to maintain a balance between work and family, the best part of my day is the second I see my daughter when I pick her up from daycare. That smile makes it all worth while! Please feel free to offer advice on how to cope with going back to work (No matter the age of your child).
