The Glitter Workshop Dish

What a Wonderful Week…

The past week has been full of working and running around, but great.

Today started off with an hour long prenatal massage (I heart my massage therapist… seriously, the woman is a miracle worker…) and a stop at Whole Foods for produce (truly, the only place in town that I can consistently buy good fruit!!), which also included some lunch to take home.

We have also been busy stocking up Glitter goods for wholesale and consignment shops. I have been making tons of magnets which I have been out of since Christmas, tons of storybook coasters, barrettes, frames and bracelets, and these new glittery coasters.

The Emperor (Henri… we call him that because sometimes he acts like royalty…) has also been keeping us on our toes since he has learned to pull himself up on things pretty well. He still won’t crawl, but will be walking before you know it!

Here he is lounging, and showing his new skills.. oh, and playing with his fave toy, my measuring cups.

He also had his first overnight at Grandma and Grandpa’s on Saturday. Let’s just say that he did a lot better than Mama did… We did want to try it though because we are planning an overnight trip with the girls that would probably run a lot smoother if it could just be the big kids!

Speaking of the big kids… they are becoming really good helpers with Henri too. Well, unless they have something else they would like to be doing!

I also have to give a shout out to my favorite niece who successfully graduated the eighth grade yesterday (yes, she is my only niece, but she is still my fave!!). While she didn’t take home any of the awards for no referrals (otherwise known as good behavior..) her teacher did mention what an incredible girl she is and an amazing artist. Seriously, this girl has some mad illustration skills. Now if she could use the rest of her powers for good not evil…. no, really, she is great. I love her so much! Here she is with her mom, her dad, and some random FedEx guy… just kidding, it’s my brother in law, he had just gotten off work…

Time to work on some very neglected laundry and get a little more work done before I have to pick up the girls. Tonight is the school picnic so I’m hoping the weather keeps cooperating! Friday is the last day of school, then next week we are hopefully planning the little getaway with the girls if I can scrape up some ‘extra’ money (does that exist?…..), then on to Zoe’s summer school. Always something, but luckily, something is usually pretty darn good..
