She is a very special friend. She is the one who took care of and loved my son before he was mine. She ran the baby house in Africa that he lived at. I have not seen her since mid-April last year when I was in Uganda adopting my son. But she was in the area visiting a friend so we met for lunch today. It was soooo nice to see her!! I wanted to do something special for her, so I ended up staying up until 3am making her a little album with pictures of "J" to give to her at lunch. I just used some thin cardboard like off the back of a notepad and cut it in circles, covered them with scrapbook paper and then added pictures and embellies :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqjwe2yJfwmXbW2SpECtzO_WGSywypqu4VIImfGoiVH3N-E35duMHJVhD8WUGieLrzvs44wWyJ2fC8VmkVxeQNShpOucWkEYO7eMd2Dw5FVXge6NSTImDBMWDTKzNHWcPS36R4wHUvhxU/s1600/IMG_1515.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqjwe2yJfwmXbW2SpECtzO_WGSywypqu4VIImfGoiVH3N-E35duMHJVhD8WUGieLrzvs44wWyJ2fC8VmkVxeQNShpOucWkEYO7eMd2Dw5FVXge6NSTImDBMWDTKzNHWcPS36R4wHUvhxU/s320/IMG_1515.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The cover.

I was up at 6am (way early for me!!) and ready to go. My bags were all packed full of diapers and formula and tiny clothes for a tiny 5.5 month old boy halfway around the world that I had never met. My son. In the months of waiting occasionally news about him would filter through my email or over my facebook. January 28th: I opened my email account to see the most amazing email I had ever received. Inside were our first 4 pictures of him after months of waiting! I sat in front of the computer crying silent tears at the beauty of seeing my son's face for the first time. He was such a gorgeous and TINY baby. February 5th: Jeremiah laughed out loud for the first time! came through my facebook. March 5th: "Jeremiah ate his first baby food today. Lamb dinner and peaches. He loved it!" in an email. March 10th: 9 more pictures of our son came in an email from a young lady who had been in Uganda in February. They were beautiful and full size, so I could print them. The first ones were so pixelated I couldn't, so this was truly a gift! Within 3 hours I had them uploaded to costco.com, picked them up and had them framed all over the house! I only had 4.5 days left at home, but I wanted to see his face as much as I could! :)<br />
<br />
By 11am exactly a year ago I was at the airport. Mike walked in the long security line with me. I was holding back my tears as we held hands in line and then I hugged and kissed him goodbye. He would join me in Uganda 3 weeks later. I cried like a baby after I had to go through the security checkpoint by myself. I knew I was going to miss Mike like crazy. I am sure the guy in line behind me thought I was just plain crazy! He kept giving me worried sideways looks because I was crying. Then after 24 exhausting hours of traveling I was there. The airplane touched down around 11pm Ugandan time in the darkest city I had ever seen. It seemed like there was hardly enough runway light for the plane to land. But it did. As soon as I stepped out of the airplane hot wet air enveloped me. I followed everyone on my plane to the visa line. I was the last person in line because I had to wait for my stroller to come up to the jetway from the plane's belly. It wouldn't have mattered though. I was in Africa and it was time to wait. My first experience with "African time." After two hours of waiting in line the man took my passport, gave it a cursory glance, asked me a couple of questions, and in less than a minute my visa was stamped! Finally I was able to get my luggage and find my ride. Brian and David had been waiting on me for a long time. Brian told me about the landscape and what we were passing on the way "home" but it was too dark to see much. People had candles and oil lamps outside because they had no electricity. Even though the traffic was very light considering the late hour they drove like crazy people! We traveled on dirt roads that were more rut than road and finally we were there. We talked for a while and then I found my room and unpacked. I stayed up late writing in my journal. I was too excited to sleep. I was meeting my son in the morning!! I slept with my light on all night because I was scared of the bugs and finally it was morning.<br />
<br />
At 9am Rennie brought my son in. I handed Brenda my camera and walked over. It was like slow motion. I dissolved into tears as I stared at the beautiful baby. It took a long time before I could even pick him up and take him from Rennie. First I held his small hands and feet and stroked his soft cheeks. With tears on my cheeks I inspected every inch of him, this soft brown baby of mine. Finally I lifted him into my arms and held him against me for the first time. I snuggled him and told him that I had been waiting my whole life for him. I held him up and looked into his eyes. He just stared at me with wide eyes taking everything in. Rennie said he was looking at me as if he knew I was his Mama. As if he had been waiting for me. They brought him to me in time for a feeding so I sat down and rocked my baby, feeding him for the first time. He had such a sweet and happy spirit and watched me the whole time as he sucked away at his bottle. He seemed very content to belong to me. To be someone's baby. To be mine.

Every time I would find someone doing an adoption fundraiser with silk screened shirts with Africa on them they were sold out in toddler sizes. So I finally decided to make one. I went to JoAnns to pick up some cute fabric and some heat and bond and went to work. I had this sweatshirt that Jeremiah just grew into and since it is March my little Ugandan American boy is cold, so it was perfect:<br />

I decided to make a little leprechaun shirt for him for St. Patrick's day. I had read on another blog that you can cut a shape out of freezer paper and then iron the outline onto a onsie. Then you would have a stencil to use fabric paint and paint an image on the shirt. Sadly my freezer paper would not stick. I made sure it was shiny side down and everything. Maybe it was old, I don't know, but it didn't work for me. So, I held it down REALLY carefully and painted the shamrock on the shirt careful not to get any paint under the freezer paper.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJf24eBzwvjhmvGK3NtXufmgvoQ_yG-Lb7V5ut8YUvh_ICpIUmizM1fTTEW3xbqxWjZNBg2PFCuMwRw-pA8yZLaSZR4tqzMDAFs-PQduJaRXqqGGXRPPMRE4rYCQsz2fVWh3rLvnPgZwE/s1600/IMG_1358.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJf24eBzwvjhmvGK3NtXufmgvoQ_yG-Lb7V5ut8YUvh_ICpIUmizM1fTTEW3xbqxWjZNBg2PFCuMwRw-pA8yZLaSZR4tqzMDAFs-PQduJaRXqqGGXRPPMRE4rYCQsz2fVWh3rLvnPgZwE/s400/IMG_1358.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Sorry, I forgot to take a picture before I got the onsie wet to put in the dye bath.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUGMeZ3tsWWsmrL3BJoPBrxo5UeAqUf2XJYUp4B_6b_AhDQW6JfngiZdkp8pYezj28KSCFxTLuOsHmUgHIJTuqMeJJxvY1dSR-k4aPd3Q2XI2uzwJPPYNkKzT_ZqEghJ41aDfDCz7V_Pc/s1600/IMG_1361.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUGMeZ3tsWWsmrL3BJoPBrxo5UeAqUf2XJYUp4B_6b_AhDQW6JfngiZdkp8pYezj28KSCFxTLuOsHmUgHIJTuqMeJJxvY1dSR-k4aPd3Q2XI2uzwJPPYNkKzT_ZqEghJ41aDfDCz7V_Pc/s320/IMG_1361.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Waiting, waiting, waiting.....</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtUV0Fwh1XYqg1rKJbGr_WX4cFftU8VFfRMLYEqOrT_Z8NC-a5Q3tNLh4CaasMNA9KbusoGmcUkrIjtZlRsG84vTXFoTPCFZ37kT0BiE-sOiTALCF6hMhl4Qs916u4hXlwXMX3x1rju34/s1600/IMG_1366.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtUV0Fwh1XYqg1rKJbGr_WX4cFftU8VFfRMLYEqOrT_Z8NC-a5Q3tNLh4CaasMNA9KbusoGmcUkrIjtZlRsG84vTXFoTPCFZ37kT0BiE-sOiTALCF6hMhl4Qs916u4hXlwXMX3x1rju34/s400/IMG_1366.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">TADA!!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJUA_Ho9hnMwdrB6aAH3WUgkevBFghtYWwObWFq6OKD0LJKy5RDJVQEkyOTE6l6OZCTpZVs1wm9jranIqcJPj6wde8NAZrDusdQEdIHq6uH8FYHW6yBaC5emcd5ZZ_b7540jrMSDlkfd0/s1600/IMG_1365.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJUA_Ho9hnMwdrB6aAH3WUgkevBFghtYWwObWFq6OKD0LJKy5RDJVQEkyOTE6l6OZCTpZVs1wm9jranIqcJPj6wde8NAZrDusdQEdIHq6uH8FYHW6yBaC5emcd5ZZ_b7540jrMSDlkfd0/s400/IMG_1365.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">My little leprechaun :-)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcF3xK-fZrEQkQinu3_qqY6BRoMpHNYc7bPxodPEZse-dhJnw7-DFVRxBFqTWXp9eqWEUztrgjSulZDr_PrHqcVhmBTYabSmMzEDGAjIMgmU8TKlS8-qFhFplui1euwEqCDd9ID5OQBb4/s1600/IMG_1382.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcF3xK-fZrEQkQinu3_qqY6BRoMpHNYc7bPxodPEZse-dhJnw7-DFVRxBFqTWXp9eqWEUztrgjSulZDr_PrHqcVhmBTYabSmMzEDGAjIMgmU8TKlS8-qFhFplui1euwEqCDd9ID5OQBb4/s400/IMG_1382.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">I had also made a smaller shamrock stencil for his booty.

I need some place to hold my make up and perfume bottles and jewelry and such since the dresser with the hutch that held such things before is now in the baby's room. We found this cabinet/shelf for $10 the week before I left for Africa and it SCreaMed potential at me. Please Paint me white and distress my edges I heard it say. Put your pretty perfume bottles and your Grandma's pitcher on my shelf. Well I listened and I am super excited! This is going to be beautiful!!!

Almost a year ago. But I got it the week before I went to Africa, and the whole week before I left it rained. And rained. And rained! So we couldn't paint it. Then I was gone for 4 months and when I got home I had a new baby, so it took me a while to get back to this one :) But it was worth the wait!! I have been wanting to post pictures for a while, but hubby's paint sprayer malfunctioned while he was doing the doors and he had to sand them down and re-do them. He hasn't gotten around to putting the last coat on, so I haven't posted pictures yet. But he is super busy with a work project right now, so if I keep waiting on the doors it might be a while :)</div><div style="text-align: center;">Drumroll please................................</div><div style="text-align: center;">TADA!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2TOY92Yb1PCwV3IYxKxTwPrMuzg_93BbKsI2QVN2x5v3MQeHuGpGI-SweAIdr9MMUkTMeoTQAzEHu7nGfccPr-JJdNFwIOF2Oym9zDIUdYnERUEXfuxICDQ_4BiunjYBKU-lTMc6-YQI/s1600/IMG_1062.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2TOY92Yb1PCwV3IYxKxTwPrMuzg_93BbKsI2QVN2x5v3MQeHuGpGI-SweAIdr9MMUkTMeoTQAzEHu7nGfccPr-JJdNFwIOF2Oym9zDIUdYnERUEXfuxICDQ_4BiunjYBKU-lTMc6-YQI/s640/IMG_1062.jpg" width="425" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">With the mirror Mike added and the shelf space for my make-up it is the perfect place to get ready in the morning.</div><br />

I don’t know what I was thinking size wise, but when I started making it it was clear that it was going to be WAY too big! Sooo, I set it aside and had plans to turn it into a wreath later. I sized down my model and ended up with this topper:<br />

I am all about vintage and it looked vintage to me with the antique sheet music. </div><div style="text-align: center;">After all of the work of inking the edges of the music and turning the sheets into cones and then hot gluing them all together I was kind of over it. I also finished around 2am so that might have killed some of my enthusiasm right there. Anyway, I decided to wait a few days to do the wreath. With the busyness of the Christmas season I never did get around to finishing it. It has been taking the majority of my scrapbook work surface since then, so today I decided it was time to finish the thing! It was only about a quarter of the way done and since it is such a HUGE wreath it actually took several hours to finish with inking the edges and everything from start to finish. It was sooooo worth it though! And, bonus, now I have my scrap area back!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTQiLhBSIqJdXxhH6puaOvozmC-V4546Hh7TGQB2PnK9Bvr6xViD58wdoERJmOOfnomrDqa9dl9oDcM-YBC3vnT6vGmnlDXYthJMGAn_qdEVu0VqGjAYlTmLIzQWEU0L_bUqfDEv_tDTk/s1600/IMG_0939.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTQiLhBSIqJdXxhH6puaOvozmC-V4546Hh7TGQB2PnK9Bvr6xViD58wdoERJmOOfnomrDqa9dl9oDcM-YBC3vnT6vGmnlDXYthJMGAn_qdEVu0VqGjAYlTmLIzQWEU0L_bUqfDEv_tDTk/s320/IMG_0939.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Coming together. I had to make LOT of cones!!! </div><div style="text-align: center;">Once I had enough cones made to complete the wreath I hot glued some cardboard strips into ring and then glued the cones the that.

I have been to Hawaii several times and I had never seen any like this. I loved the Olivine and after thinking about it for a day I decided to go back to the street fair to get them and the matching necklace the morning we flew to Oahu. I loved them!! Sadly, a few nights later on a long walk one of my Olivine earrings fell off of the hook. We had done a ton of walking after dinner. I knew they had to be at the restaurant we went to for dinner, or somewhere we walked afterward because I had put them in right before we went out to eat and Mike said they were on during dinner. So, we spent 2 hours re-tracing our steps that night but never found it. I could have cried! And I never found any on Oahu to replace them. I did find a pair of olivine earrings with smaller stones and bought them hoping I could combine them with the larger stones from the earring I had left and create a new pair. Today during nap time I decided it was time to try to make them.<br />

We always buy a Noble Fir, but this year we decided to try a Frasier Fir because it cost considerably less but has a very similar look. I LOVE it! It is really pretty and the branches have almost a silvery look in some light. I was excited to make a new tree topper for it, so last night when we decorated I left the topper off.<br />

I was somewhat leery about it, but ended up LOVING IT!!!! And everyone who got one of my hand made gifts loved them too!! This year I am making more gifts than ever, scaling down and spending less. I am ready to simplify and celebrate Advent and the true meaning of Christmas!! I am ready to get more creative and make more gifts. I recently posted a good stocking stuffer idea about making lip balm. Another idea I heard this week was to buy a favorite children's book for your grandchild, neice, nephew, etc and record yourself reading the story so they can listen and follow along whenever they want!</div><div style="text-align: center;">Here is something I made for my son. He is only 14 months and still too young for it, but I couldn't resist making if for him! I will save it for his second birthday, but if you have toddler in your life who is the right age, this would make a great and inexpensive, adorable Christmas gift!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFdR6iDIMjs8_JGxnYfMAVoY_4uz8hBtxbp14kptV3Xa2efB4JPPAnLOcptdsGI-mDujY_IHbkmNaJkGPEho4vLhr5mWv1EAx_PG2q-HSCzmjkPJJzhu_y-cdhtyrqqTyRuzsTEJsTGb4/s1600/IMG_0362.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFdR6iDIMjs8_JGxnYfMAVoY_4uz8hBtxbp14kptV3Xa2efB4JPPAnLOcptdsGI-mDujY_IHbkmNaJkGPEho4vLhr5mWv1EAx_PG2q-HSCzmjkPJJzhu_y-cdhtyrqqTyRuzsTEJsTGb4/s400/IMG_0362.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">A hand made matching game!

I bought these metal re-usable drinking bottles at Wal-Mart for $1 each. Then I grabbed my cricut vinyl and got to work cutting out words!! On this one I wrote my little brother's name at an angle in a circle around the bottle and put a star at the end. The one for my teenage brother is already wrapped, so sadly I can not show you, but I wrote his name in a straight line with Class of 2011 under it. I used a silver water bottle and black vinyl. I LOVE how it turned out and I think he will like it. Great $1 gift!!!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_H1jJl2FPuXU/TPd7vmwNl_I/AAAAAAAAC64/pA7TPFFBfQ4/s1600/IMG_0380.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_H1jJl2FPuXU/TPd7vmwNl_I/AAAAAAAAC64/pA7TPFFBfQ4/s400/IMG_0380.JPG" width="266" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Linking up to:<br />

No pictures of mopping the floor or scrubbing the toilet? Weird! Nope, today I needed to get some crafty energy flowing!!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjD-qtDp3NpEvHZfeW7DPUOfsLrcnmOhtXV3-QxpZ_DcD18aZ3COeF3HVw3HJQhNgqJaeSX_sQPjcHenBrsVmZQMVFYnoZDChU5pjH5iWKLi-riYMUhVlzfKFwxOkcL54d02koCtANASD4/s1600/IMG_0990.JPG" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a>Today I needed a change and I was getting really tired of my fall decor. So I dismantled the table top fall display and was left with the pumpkins. Not wanting to toss them yet with Thanksgiving around the corner, I considered spray painting them white like I have seen others do before adding the lettering, but decided to leave them orange (for now, lol. There is always tomorrow for spray painting!). I put them on the ledge of one of my favorite DIY projects from this spring.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjD-qtDp3NpEvHZfeW7DPUOfsLrcnmOhtXV3-QxpZ_DcD18aZ3COeF3HVw3HJQhNgqJaeSX_sQPjcHenBrsVmZQMVFYnoZDChU5pjH5iWKLi-riYMUhVlzfKFwxOkcL54d02koCtANASD4/s1600/IMG_0990.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjD-qtDp3NpEvHZfeW7DPUOfsLrcnmOhtXV3-QxpZ_DcD18aZ3COeF3HVw3HJQhNgqJaeSX_sQPjcHenBrsVmZQMVFYnoZDChU5pjH5iWKLi-riYMUhVlzfKFwxOkcL54d02koCtANASD4/s400/IMG_0990.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Give Thanks up on my Dining Room chalkboard :)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEislaEJcxVCpC_-rPv0S2ncZ99jX-sbohCXvjzV74JRRVKkKeEfRi9Z7K0iov8vcdRqcc4HWVANxzsvyR7-KARofumEI1xnDMGAmn3epZ8bRB-lj3jZudYjar-sTWar0LDUtCyRRDYvXOA/s1600/IMG_0991.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEislaEJcxVCpC_-rPv0S2ncZ99jX-sbohCXvjzV74JRRVKkKeEfRi9Z7K0iov8vcdRqcc4HWVANxzsvyR7-KARofumEI1xnDMGAmn3epZ8bRB-lj3jZudYjar-sTWar0LDUtCyRRDYvXOA/s400/IMG_0991.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br />

I bought it in the spring and mentioned that I had an unconventional idea for it <a href="http://forevernewlyweds.blogspot.com/2010/03/making-things-beautiful.html">here.</a> Unfortunately having Mommy Brain and I have absolutly no idea what that fabulous idea was! But today it got a re-do as a frame again, just with a MUCH better picture!

This is one of my favorites!! I just ripped out the old picture, spray painted the frame with the very last little bit of black spray paint I had and plopped this enlargement I had inside. LOVE! Quite a transformation huh? I would say I prefer the after to the before! So worth the $2.99 price tag I bought the frame for months ago!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiO1G36VtRm3nRKMeBaVJrLsUuWIVKpcOGERdvrfz0_U88Au_ISd3JsFuEEaH566PHsBXH5XuXy6nWGegA0nchiBQhxfO3Qvko8VzR72LiWm0NOfox0RaJhVN_H6fKYbo5lJ9jnldVvqhs/s1600/IMG_0992.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiO1G36VtRm3nRKMeBaVJrLsUuWIVKpcOGERdvrfz0_U88Au_ISd3JsFuEEaH566PHsBXH5XuXy6nWGegA0nchiBQhxfO3Qvko8VzR72LiWm0NOfox0RaJhVN_H6fKYbo5lJ9jnldVvqhs/s400/IMG_0992.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> I had some suction cups with hooks, so I decided to try putting it on the fall decorated window in my living room.

It feels so good getting stuff done! Like spring cleaning, but it happens to be fall. Anywho, before I left for Africa to meet my precious son I painted this old window Mike had brought home from a job site knowing I would love to find a creative use for it. I decided I wanted to paint it black and put pictures of my precious baby in it behind the glass. Unfortunately I didn't have a ton of pictures of him at that point and all of the ones I had were in frames around the house. I decided to wait until I had more pictures to finish it. I blogged about this particular window less than two weeks before I left. You can read about it <a href="http://forevernewlyweds.blogspot.com/2010/03/transformation.html">here.</a></span><br />

Even though I had the nursery print flannel to make my own with, with all of the projects I was working on and preparing to fly to Uganda to meet my son it was low on my priority list.

I have a small spray bottle I keep with the wipes that I fill with warm water, a squirt of baby wash and 3 drops of tea tree oil. The tea tree oil is naturally anti-bacterial keeps the water fresh and smelling good and I refill the bottle every 3ish days when it runs out. It is so much easier to just spray a wipe and finish up the job than use regular wipes and have to dispose of the wipes in a separate place from the rest of the diapers in the diaper pail.</div>Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10214298600682540498noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3006696713644259799.post-33868386396463042552010-10-27T20:09:00.000-07:002010-12-27T23:53:13.507-08:00Day 10 - Hiking Diamond Head and Home<div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg84i7caLWnOy32fbG8L_T3Ps4_oCja-os4CjSF4KMXGwhCoXBkqStnlBHxKUen4jjN3qvG64R7_s3WitHtjxi1Gt4Vr2BJtSakHtSqVNfVrUiofLXrj_2dZEzeWsrI5TpOryLNTRppePA/s1600/IMG_0340.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg84i7caLWnOy32fbG8L_T3Ps4_oCja-os4CjSF4KMXGwhCoXBkqStnlBHxKUen4jjN3qvG64R7_s3WitHtjxi1Gt4Vr2BJtSakHtSqVNfVrUiofLXrj_2dZEzeWsrI5TpOryLNTRppePA/s400/IMG_0340.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">On our last day in Hawaii we got up early to hike Diamond Head.

Instead Mike ran out for fast food. When he got back he said he liked waking with Jeremiah and I in Waikiki better than by himself because 2 different guys asked him if he wanted to buy drugs and a pimp asked him if he needed any company for the night. I guess the family guy image helps stave that off. The funny thing is before J, whenever we were in Hawaii guys would ask me if I wanted to buy any weed and ignored Mike. It made me wonder if I looked like the kind of person who enjoyed weed...... </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Anyway, we stayed in with our fast food and a movie and enjoyed our last night in paradise.

She called several companies, but none of them would rent to us because there aren't rivers so they take the kayaks on the open ocean. It sounded really fun because they kayak out to this little island to explore scenic beaches and picnic. Finally one place said that they would let us rent the next day, but it was like 3 times the price of the kayaking place we rented from in Kaua'i, so we passed and booked a sailing trip for the morning instead which was cheaper than renting a kayak. Partly because we have sailed with then 5 times and they know us and give us a good deal :) After that we hit up Starbucks before going to the LOST beach camp to see if there was anything left...........</div><a name='more'></a> It was sooooo cool last year when they were still filming!!!<br />

We went on a long walk on the way home and in Waikiki there are lots of street prefomers in the evening. The oddest one was some guy with a guinnea pig on a surf board for people to take pictures of and pet for donations. Their guinnea pig brought in the bacon, lol. Sadly on this long walk one of my olivine earrings that I had just bought in Kaua'i the day before fell off of the hook. It was the only thing I had purchased and I had never seen earrings like that before. And we had done a ton of walking. I knew they and to be at the restaurant or somewhere we walked afterward because I had put them in right before we went out to eat. We spent 2 hours re-tracing our steps that night and never found it. I could have cried! And I never found any on Oahu to replace them. </div>Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10214298600682540498noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3006696713644259799.post-29821617042291402372010-10-25T13:41:00.000-07:002010-10-28T10:27:35.432-07:00Day 6 & 7 - Kayaking to Secret Falls<div style="text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTtfZcWmDyMyRxqEQ08684VqhmDK_hyphenhyphen3dKDlkGhuiyLybsB4j6iORItiEwJa5sdC7vKFWkqgiBZCMa-hSSkQxn8R38-vhqM47EdX6YDYm4bIHOzFt_HbAtF08crI_JSi5lsUQX5ZRSbjep/s1600/IMG_0171.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTtfZcWmDyMyRxqEQ08684VqhmDK_hyphenhyphen3dKDlkGhuiyLybsB4j6iORItiEwJa5sdC7vKFWkqgiBZCMa-hSSkQxn8R38-vhqM47EdX6YDYm4bIHOzFt_HbAtF08crI_JSi5lsUQX5ZRSbjep/s400/IMG_0171.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> Jeremiah in the kayak. We wanted to kayak the river up to Secret Falls. But we had a baby. But we wanted to kayak. So we decided to not let having a baby get in the way or our fun! We had to rent a kayak and go it alone because none of the guided groups allowed babies, but it worked out for the better because we got to explore much more on our own. It was quite the kayaking trip upstream while Mike did most of the paddling and I paddled sometimes and entertained the baby sometimes. Jeremiah did a GREAT job and we would totally do it again!! Once we finally got to the place where land your kayak we tumbled out and began the hike to the falls. It was actually the perfect day to be in a river and then be sprayed by a waterfall because it rained. All day. We were drenched!! Jeremiah was a really good sport about being wet........<br />

On the way back we saw several cars parked on the side of the road and decided to get out and check to see if this was the trail head. It was!! We were on this VERY narrow trail with grass and prickly bushes right up against us on either side pulling at our hair and clothes when we hear what sounds like a stampede coming toward us. We scoot as far into the bushes and these 3 locals come barreling down the trail full speed ahead. We talked to them later at the falls and apparently they snuck away from work for a long lunch to jump off the cliff into the falls and swim, so that is why they were in a hurry :) <br />
