Happy New Year!

I am not one for New Year resolutions. I know I'm not going to stick to them that way. I tend to pick things all the time through-out the year and gradually work on them. I start with small steps and end up making big changes. Usually I like to change anything that is negative. I don't do negative very well. It stresses me out and I get sick, not to mention it takes days to get rid of the feeling. Anything from relationships to the way I think to situations that will turn negative. So I will continue to work on all of that. :)

I have a few more pictures from Christmas.
So this is a very rare shot, Mikhail sitting....and sitting still!!! He totally knows how to work his sister's DS's just from watching them. I could not believe that he can totally play the games on his own, just from watching. The girls and I were busy baking when we saw him doing this. We have a maid. Just wish it was more talented than just floors. But, at least we can do the rest while it does floors, and it totally saves my hip and back. :) Actually, that was a joke for a couple of days...-bends to push the button-....oh, my back, doing the floors is hard work, lol.

We torture our kids every year at Christmas and make them eat breakfast in the morning before opening the gifts. I was making Monkey Muffins, this is two of them waiting. Emma was off getting a large container to keep her unwrapped gifts separate from everyone else's, lol

Emma and her lip gloss :)

Mikhail opens the gift Emma bought him for Christmas...

Chastity opening her gift, Emma got a camera too. :)

Here's my layout for Lotus Paperie using journaling stamps multiple times on your page.

Thanks for peeking :)
