Off to a good start

Happy New Year guys! So far the year is off to a good start. I've had quite a productive day. Okay, so I didn't make it to midnight, but the fireworks did wake me up right after midnight. How boring am I! But this morning I did have some Bunuelos that my mom made. They're a Mexican thing and they're oh so yummy.

Here are some burp cloths I made... well, I actually made them a few days ago. They're felt and cotton and I just love the monkey print.

And guess what I found at Target. My most favorite chap stick by Burt's Bee's for... get this... .75 cents a piece! These are regular 2.99, but since I found them in the Christmas clearance isle, they were so super cheap. I was greedy and I bought 5... I can't help it, I love the stuff!

I did lots of sewing today. I sewed bags for all of the girls, Lauren, Mikey, and Leah. I cut everything out last night and today I sewed it all together.

But I didn't just sew and take pictures today. Jackson has really been into coloring lately and that's all he wants to do all day long. Most of the time he does well by himself, but sometimes he likes some company. So we colored lots of pictures today. My boy is a little artist! He's also been doing monkey ears. Stephanie taught him, it's really cute... except when he's eating spaghetti. Who am I kidding, it's still cute even then.

We made the long trip out to Sea Isle to visit Denise and the girls... and Fisher of course. We snacked and stuff and ate some black eyed peas and cabbage. The girls liked their bags, And I'm glad. So that was my day. A good one I think. I hope this new year has many more to come.

Things I'm looking forward to in 2009:

• More days of Jack Jack
  
  
  
• Our new baby
  

• Creating things
  

• Getting my old body back (I know it will never be the same though)
  

• Did I mention Jackson?
  

• Just living life =)
