Pay It Forward...
So Here it goes...
The first five people to comment on this post will get something in the mail from me, or at your door step (depending on how far you are). Here's the catch....If you are one of the five commenter's, you have to put a similar post on your blog. This keeps us all busy and thinking of others for a while. Serving other's is a great way for me to get my mind off of things that shouldn't be there... have fun! If you aren't local, I will ship!
***if you aren't a blogger,... send an e-mail :)

Oh, my sneaky little Archer...
My kids... I love them, but lately, I've wanted to lock them in a tower with a nanny while I sleep or scrapbook or clean my house and enjoy it being clean... Something. They've been driving me crazy. But one in particular has me pulling my hair out...
Archer is my "sneaky" child. He watches me quietly. He'll play with a train and just sort of keep an eye on me. Then when I am distracted (by the computer, a good tv show, helping Tanion with homework, changing Robyn, going to the bathroom - whatever), he gets into mischief. The kid loves messing with my things. Especially my scrapbook things. I don't know if it's the stickers, the cool scissors, the colorful paper, the ink pads, or the doublesided sticky tape, but my boy LOVES getting into my scrapbook stuff. And loves to destroy them.
Since Sunday (yeah, like the last 4 days) he has cut up 3 pictures and several pieces of paper, stamped some halloween things on his wall in his bedroom, spilled strawberry milk on a bunch of paper, colored his fingers with markers, colored on pictures, opened up 3 ink pads and squished them together, hid several pairs of craft scissors, unrolled 2 BRAND NEW rolls of craft tape, used up 3 pages of stickers and probably other things that I will discover soon enough...
HONESTLY, I watch this kid! He is sort of a loner when it comes to playing. He would rather be by himself in his room with a Thomas the Train movie on and playing trains. So I get myself distracted with my other 2 kids, the computer, whatever and then I go in to check on him and he has sneaked my things into his room and started the destruction...
So I have put in a request with my hubby to either build me something I can LOCK (and keep Archer out of) for my scrapbook stuff, or to get me a dresser and child-proof it. In the mean time, if you would like to have a partially athsmatic, totally cute, Thomas obsessed, really sneaky almost 4 year old for a few hours / days / weeks - give me a call. I'm sure I will want him back because he really is lovable and cute, but this week, I am ready to give him away.

Congrats to Angie!
"CONGRATS!" to my friend Angie and her family. They were blessed with baby #4 (first girl!) last Monday. They named her Kiah Marie and she is just beautiful! :)
