Also I am going to be a part of the Girls Day Out boutique. For more information on that please check out their blog at http://www.girlsdayoutboutique.blogspot.com/. It will be November 8th from 9am to 5pm.

I will be debuting several new ideas for boys at these shows too so bring your transformer loving little guys for some great items!

New items in my store

I have been trying to come up with some fun ways to expand my stores offerings and I have come up with these. My kids loved the fifty cent wands I got from West Fest this year, but they were trashed in a matter of days. These have been tested by my wonderful army of 3 and 4 year olds for the last week and they are still going strong.

Let me know what you think! You can purchase on from my congo at www.hyenacart.com/mainstreet on Monday the 15th!

Just another day

It is just another day right? Thought I would add a bit to my blog about how the day has been. Saturday I was able to get a little sewing done, so excited! I finished up an outfit I was making (http://hyenacart.com/prod_details.php?id=95996&vid=2001) and then on Sunday I was able to get a few more things finished and listed on my website (http://www.embellishedbaby.com/) John was a great help on sunday. He was able to keep the kids entertained enough that I got three shirts appliqued and several bows finished.

I am busy getting my stock up for the craft fair season. I am planning on doing the craft fair at West Fest(http://www.westfest.org/) this year and I am thinking I might do some other small ones around town. I am going to be busy busy making stuff for this event and so I have my babysitter coming over after school to take the kids to the park a few times so that I have some time to get bows and tutu's made.

Personal Triumph

I am now under 200 lbs! I haven't been that "light" since high school or shortly there after!

Yay for me.

Worked out!

Ok I walked on the treadmill today. I got up around 8am which for me was sleeping in. Emma or Rachel is usually up and ready to go by 7 or 7:30 every morning. I get the baby and start to nurse her. I usually watch Fox 13 news in the morning and today was no different. Not much on the news but murder and Tae Kwan Do. The two big kids got up and were downstairs by 8:30 so that means Dora the Explorer. I don't care to watch this show myself, but the kids love it!

I had 30 minutes before the little boy I babysit was going to be here, so I put Rach under the arch 'o toys and started up the treadmill. I am impresseed with myself, I walked for 25 minutes, at 2-3 incline and 3-4mph for most of it. Go me! I have started to concentrate on my wellbeing, both physical and spritual, this year. I am getting flabby in all the ways a person can get flabby!

Ok, Rach is not going down for her nap so I need to cut it short. Back soon!
