Friday Mish-Mash Post

Hi Bloggy Readers! Better late than never, right?? I got a wild hair to clean up around here and as that happens far too infrequently lately, I went with it!!! So I'm going to post this hodge podge of stuff and then I'm heading upstairs to make up some new cards and stuff!
*********************************************
This came from Kim!! Thank you Kim!!!
She bragged about finding a case of them...
so I asked for one, lol!
Nothing ventured....right???
*******************************************
Last Friday Thomas and I had a Date Day. Part of it was spent at one of my favorite non-crafting stores....Target!!! Love it!! I especially love their $1 section because you can usually find the coolest stuff there! Like these:
Tons of cool, cool stuff for The Bella's Easter basket!!

And this too! Because Mommy Bella loves, loves, loves Fancy Nancy!
********************************************
We also went ahead and bought Bella's birthday presents. I'm pretty sure we are going to just send them to Alex, so they will be there when her birthday rolls around. We probably won't have our household goods by then. Even if we do, who wants to dig, dig, dig for the one box that will have them in it?? (not me!)
Italian Barbie and new Tiana barbie
The I-can't-remember-her-name Barbie
These go with the new movie that she just earned for good daily behavior reports from school! Yay Bella!!
Yes, this is a mermaid costume!
And THOMAS picked it out, lol!
We actually found something she didn't already have for her Loving Family dollhouse!
She had a carriage already, but this one is bigger, has TWO horses, and the Godmother and mice too! Had to get it!!
This is just really cool.
We'd been talking about getting her this for about a year now and this seemed a good time to go ahead and get it. She might just get this early when we're busy getting packed up, going on appts, etc to keep her quiet happy.
4 games to go with it
*************************************************
My new camera!! I soooo needed a new one and now my videos won't be all blurry and dark anymore! LOVE IT!! And yes, it's pink. I did NOT buy it because it was pink. That was just a bonus! *wink*

********************************************************
First picture with my camera and Bella couldn't look at me, lol!
This was on my previous post, entered in that contest!
Thursday morning before school. Her new dress on!
And there you have it folks!!

Tonight we will be decorating our eggs! YAY! Love doing that! In looking for the plastic eggs for Sunday's egg hunt, I found two more decorating kits and TONS of Easter decorations I bought last year and didn't use. So fun pictures tomorrow with the LOL Caturday as well!!

Love all the barbie stuff for Bella - I used to LOVE barbie as a kid. I know I should capitalize those "b's" but I don't feel like it. :)

So cool that you found Italian Barbie too!!! :)

I'm looking forward to the egg decorating pictures! I love to see what everyone does!

What a great idea to send the gifts over early. That's brilliant! And wow, will she ever score on her birthday! She gets to be in Europe AND receive wonderful thoughtful gifts! Lucky girl!

Tammy said...

Somebody is getting a little spoiled mom! :) She is going to love all that stuff!

Happy Easter!

Goodness... Bella has an "in" with Peter Cottontail!

I hope you enjoy your new camera! It looks really slick!

Lots of nice birthday gifts for Bella. I'm sure she'll be in Barbie heaven on her birthday. :)

Looks like you have a nice camera there. (and pink, too) I hope you have fun taking lots of pictures for us to see. :) I need a camera with a viewfinder. It's a lot easier for me to use than ones with just the LCD monitor on the back. (bifocals....it's not fun getting old...LOL)

Looking forward to your Caturday post....as I usually do. :)

Annie said...

awww, Bella is such a little darling!!! And oh my goodness, she'll be soooo happy on her birthday with all these goodies :)

I love the LeapFrog stuff. It's some of my most favorite kids stuff in the toy section.

How are you liking your new camera? I was taking photos of my bunnies a couple days ago and dropped mine, it is history! I need a new one that I can afford. I am loving the pink : )
Hugs,
