Crafty Carla

Ive been pretty crafty lately, well not really CRAFTY, but crafty for me! ( i dont do crafts) anywho.. i went to a little shop in brea the other day and got some great ideas!

Wipe Case! I saw this in the store adn they were charging like 20 bucks! And i thought to myself, "Self, you have a wipey case, and CUTE fabric, you could EASILY do that" So me and myself went home and did it! It didnt turn out SO well, but it was my practice run! Ill perfect it soon enough and maybe ill see you one for $30!
I painted Emmas room green, before i even knew who Emma was! But the crafty bug bite me again, and i decided to add more PINK to her room. HEr closet was already this color, and she needed more pink!
Saw this in that shop, and they were charging 25 for it... and i had the same discussion with myself.. and came home and made it! The flower and ribbon are from my diaper cake my sister made me for my shower ages ago, ok like 2 years ago, but it seems forever ago!!
And yes she has THAT many bows, and no she doenst leave them in, and hardly lets me BRUSH her hair let alone put something cute in it!

Have i mentioned...

I MISS THIS MAN TERRIBLY!!!

EARRINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was going to get Emmas ears pierced when she was 2 months old, but i watched my niece do it first, and it broke my heart.. so ive been putting it off. Well the other day we went to the mall and i felt brave, and Emma was in a good mood, so why not ruin it right? Anywho.. Heres the end result!!!

I know i know, not the greatest picture, but i cant get this girl to hold still! I cant believe i waited so long to do it! she looks SO darn cute with them!!! She was actually quite tough about it, and we havent had any problems with them so far (*knocks on wood*)

because i keep getting crap from my brother...

So just a bunch of random pics, so you can see how Emmas doing and leave me alone (you know who you are)
Emma has been loving sitting in her crib playing with all of her stuffed animals


We went to disneyland, and acted like tourists and took pics with minnie mouse. Emma was SO excited to see her, until we were inces away... then she was terrified! (yes i know, im huge, ive already lost 10 pounds, ive got about 20 more to go, and this picture is my motivation)


Kelly has been out of town since Sunday, and we miss him TERRIBLY!!! This is Emmas reaction everytime kelly said, "Hi babygirl!" on speaker phone! haha

Independence

Whenever we go anywhere now, this one HAS to walk! Shes getting better and better at these stairs! Herres a little video to show you how awesome she is!!



I had to stop the video recording quickly, becasue as soon as she got to the top she booked it to the stairs that go DOWN and she cant do.. it was scary, but im super mom and i saved the day once again

whos the little person now!

Emma got quite the doll house for her birthday a couple months ago, and loves it! However, she has now decided to conquer the house and thinks/wants to fit through the front door....







She got stuck a couple times! Crazy baby!!






Sidenote: how cute is this?! Kelly got it for me for my birthday!!!! i LOVE love love it! Ive been picking it up and putting it back at Target for a couple weeks now! haha! And so he, being the amazing husband got it for me!!! thanks hunny!!! love yoU!!!

Im pretty sure i define the word "random"

First things first, my amazingly wonderful sister got me THE bestest birthday gift ever!!!!!!!!! Thank you tiffany!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




Anywho, another new trick of emmas! She has been forever wanting to get on our couches, but due to her short stature she has yet to succeed! Until this week!!! I got pictures, she didnt think i was watching... sily baby, im ALWAYS watching

So proud!!
And then, like the good mother i am, made her do it again so i could get a lil video action!!!!








And a random cute picture of Emma enjoying her pool. No, she wont put more than just her feet in, even in the regular pool!! Hopefully next summer will be more pool-friendly fun!!!
