Tomorrow my little munchkin will be 10 months old. 10 months! Where, oh where, has the time gone? She is scootin’ and crawlin’ all over the place, and trying her hardest to stand up. She really puts all of her little heart into. One day soon she will finally succeed. It’s been a busy week. Seen some old friends, had a couple of play dates, spent some time in out backyard wonderland. I always enjoy my time with my kids, every second. But I know I will enjoy the time that much more when we can play outside and actually be able to breathe. It is unbearably hot these days, and it hits 100+ everyday. I often think, if we lived in a cooler climate, my little Emma would be outside 24/7. 

I come across all sorts of great ideas all of the time. Ideas for decorating my home, alot of DIY projects for both decor and children’s activities. I saw this today and would love to make it for Emma, if I only had the room for it…

Emma would love this little store. And it sure does beat the plastic junk sold in stores…

On my to-do list (it’s actually been on my list for a long time now)… make homemade marshmallows. I’ve heard they’re pretty easy to make. Maybe if I tried I would know.
