maybe I should be sleeping

It's NINE O'CLOCK !! CURFEW!! LIGHTS OUT! what movie? well its really 10:00 over here in UT but that quote went thru my mind and that i should really be asleep...yet I am not. I'm a lil excited for a few things down the road....so with popeye on my mind, if you didnt guess it..i thought how cute a illustration of a pig name olive would be..or perhaps another animal..just my creative mind at play...doodling & sketching away. It will be fun to see what comes out friday.

I should be asleep  but after today I want to feel like I got something done or some kind of relaxment (is that a word?). My day has been along one, my adorable almost 1 is, I believe acting like a 2 year old already. Not cool. He is not a 2 year old therefore he should not act like one, right? My son has learned "No", and told me twice NO and it made sense..does he understand the word? I believe he does.

His first birthday is a week away, he is growing so fast! I can't believe I have a one year old.

I am excited for friday..I have a few things to release for FRIDAY RELEASE DAY (i got to think of something cuter to say for friday release day) and we will see if i can wait that long :)

Well, I am going to go hit the matress but excited for the many giveaways coming up on different blogs..Once they are posted I will let you know here so you can have another chance at winning FREE stuff from moi, and possibly finding another awesome blog that you are not part of.

Enjoy your evening and thursday!

Bubble Gum Flying

Hello All, it is another friday..and just less than two weeks when My baby boy, Maximus turns one.
I don't believe how time can go by so fast. He is a darling lil ginger and such a joy...it has truly been the highlight of my life so far, him and his wonderful handsome of man whom we call daddy.

Being a new mom and all and just one year under my belt it is no easy task, some days are really hard and we all need outlets. I love having my art as an outlet and grasping new creative ideas, or doing them better.Well, so for my friday release day, it has been a project I gave to myself to bring back some of the fun in being a kid and some fun dreams or imagination play...I, for one has always wished I could fly high up in the clouds, like those squirrel suits-maybe one day I will try it. I have been skydiving and that is amazing in its own but just to dive and glide...wouldn't that be fun?   Well ok, as I get side tracked again (happens a lot) bringing myself back...so, I love bubble gum and the thought of flying..so why not combine the two ?  here you are... I may change it up but this is what I have and I am liking it a lot. Very fun!

It's Friday!!!Friday Release Day!!!

It is Friday..and we are releasing our Go Bananas Monkey party theme. This is great for Baby shower or baby birthday, especially birthday for twins. It can be girly (hence the bow detail) or just boys or both!
Go buy it on etsy!

So many cute ideas from the menu to decor.

My Lil Max's 1st Birthday

My lil boy, Max, will be one on Sept 7th. It is his FIRST! So, of course I have been getting so many ideas for his first special day..I am still trying to finalize what I want to do for it.
So, to all you mothers out there..what was your first first babys birthday theme? and what would you recommend or do differently??

These are what I have in mind so far.. DO a green color scheme with accents of blues of an alligator, turtle, and frog OR a train..Max does love choo choo trains..maybe a animal train or circus train?? hmmm so for now that is what i have been playing with. We will see if this is what i do. hehe
