Major Party Foul

Sweet T had a MAJOR party foul last night while out to dinner with some friends. I got her a virgin strawberry daquari and they did it up cute with fruit and umbrellas. Well, I had her and Tristan both sitting in my lap when she turns the drink over, in our laps! Tristan was screaming because it a frozen drink thrown on him, it's all in my crotch, down my legs, and Sweet T got this tiny little spot on her knee. Talk about sticky. We have all recovered and unstickied (is that a word?) ourselves.


We also had a garage sale yesterday at our house. My mom came out and helped, and not just with the sale. She was so wonderful and helped me with the inside of my house! I've been neglecting my floors and then trying to get ready for the garage sale, my house was a disaster. Thank you Mom, I love you!

Oh, Tristan has a lot of lessons to learn from his Mommy. Our friends (my best friend of 16 years) has a precious little girl named Olivia that is just a couple of months older than Tristan. Well, he has the hots for her, he has ever since he met her, and he took her a flower last night. Well, he tried to EAT the flower. My son is a brute and will eat ANYTHING! So, he has to learn to not destroy his dates flowers and to not be a piggy when out to dinner with them!

well,

there were more than just Marvin and his brother Melvin. There are babies and they are in the the hot water heater insulation. Plus they have chewed a hole in the baseboard in the closet in the garage. I am just thankful that they are staying outside. With all the rain we have had lately, they have decided to run for shelter, at my expense. So, there are a ton of traps and D-Con hanging out in the garage. And I am waiting for a call back from the exterminator. I wish I knew of some sort of Mouse Dance to make them go away. Maybe I can learn the KingFisher dance from one of Tobbie's Angelina Ballerina (a mouse character in case you didn't know) books. Maybe that would make them surry away. AGGGGGHHHH!!!! Ok, that was me screaming.

TA-DAAAAA

Sweetie McSweets is set up on Etsy!!! I currently only have two items up, I need to put a few finishing touches on some other items and they will be up as well.

So, all you need to do is go to etsy.com and look up Sweetie McSweets (that is my shopname). Here is a sneak peak to what is already listed:


and here are a few bibs that I made for someone. I still need to add some finishing touches. These aren't for sale, but I would be more than happy to make one for you with your child's initial on it!

HAHAHA...

Not only did I get Marving the Mouse, but I also got his twin broder, Melvin! But, they are sneaky little things. After an hour, I went out to check to see if I had "caught" anything and there was one little mouse on one of the sticky pads and we was just eating away at the peanut butter. I went out a little while later adn he was GONE! WTF??? How could that be? Well, I had put out a second trap as well, and I gots me two of 'em! They are currently eating peanut butter while stuck. They are going to die eating. But the gross part is, they are out there trying to wiggle themselves off. Heebeegeebees, shudder! I might have to start drinking early today to dispose of the nasty little rodents. I am just thankful they didn't make their way into the house. HAHAHA (insert EVIL laugh)!!!!

Oh, I couldn't bring myself to exploit the wiggling rodents, just use your imagination.

And I promise to not speak of rodents anymore, well, at least until another shows up. That's what I get for living in an old pecan grove.

I'm gonna...

get you sucka! That's right Marvin the Mouse (Sweet T loves Mickey, so I can't call him that), you are going to be a dead mouse tomorrow! Well, you had better be a dead mouse tomorrow. The mean looking kitty on the front of the mouse sticky pad box is scary!!! Just scary I tell you! I am trying to lure him in with some peanut butter, maybe he will fall for it again and get stuck this time on the sticky pad. I just hope and pray I don't go out there and find him alive trying to get himself unstuck. Don't worry, I won't be able to take a photo of the dead mouse because I probably won't be able to look at him. I will probably have to take a beer to my new neighbor and bribe him to come pick it up. Hmmm, I can't wait to report my findings in the morning. Stay tuned!

Update: To Sell or Not To Sell

Ok, it has been decided that I will start selling my handmade baby goods. I set up an Etsy account last night and have been working hard on some items. I currenty don't have anything up on Etsy just yet, the site is down for maintence and I am working on a cute logo with my PSE7. I have decided on a name: Sweetie McSweets. I was trying to think of something cute and sweet and that is what I came up with. Ok, when I have some photos to publish, I will! Thank you for all the encouragement!

Mouse Update

Ok, that little mouse is a smart one! Not only did he eat the cheese that I put on the traps, but he also ate the peanut butter that my step-dad put on there! I am gonna get that damn mouse! I am headed to Wal-Marts (in the south we like to add an S on the end of anything that ends in MART) today and going to get some sticky traps. If that little guy survives that, he'd better watch out, because he will become target practice with my purdy new pistol!
