We went to #wafflehouse for brunch this morning. Leocadia enjoyed playing on her Kindle fire tablet while we waited on our order. π #coffeegoals #coffeetime #coffeeislife #brunch #wafflehouse #waffles

I would like to announce the arrival of the beautiful Addy to our home! My friend, @anniehunnam85 generously gifted her to me and I am over the moon with happiness!π¦β€π¦β€π¦ I've already put up her hair and am planning on getting/sewing her some more clothes. She'll be a bit of a time-traveller and be a friend to Leocadia's dolls, but she wholly mine and I love her! Thank you, @anniehunnam85 !!!β€β€β€ #agig #altagig #joytoeverygirl #agdollhouse #craftymama #myfirstagdoll #addydoll
No matter what project I'm working on (I have several right now, so please excuse the messπ¨), Dollar always sits near me and chews on his beef bone. My #constantcompanion , he keeps my feet warm at night when he takes up the majority of my bed, he protects Leocadia, he scares coyotes away, and is a #spoiledrottendog But as soon as my brother comes home for a visit, Dollar quickly becomes his #bigpuppy Traitor. π€£
Here are the #goodies I found during my #targetrun and my #happyplace @michaelsstores π The @scotchproducts Washi tape and Washi spools on top were from Target. I found the small tube in the #targetdollarspot. I was hoping to find more, but it was the only one. On my trip to Michael's craft store, I found they had a buy two, get one free deal going on, plus I had a 20% off my entire purchase coupon! So I picked out three packs of #washitape , a some #watercolorpencils , a #pigmamicron 0.25 pen, and a set of #aquabrushes to try out in my #bulletjournal π¦β€ ππββπππ
I found bunches of #dollgoodies at #walmart ! This particular store has oodles of new #mladolls accessories! I picked up one of the MLA doll room scenes for Leocadia. Totally worth the $7.98 for portable #dollyfunfinds #agig #altagig #joytoeverygirl #agdollhouse #craftymama #mladolls
I am totally loving this look on @chimamanda_adichie made by @kikikamanu β€β€β€ For those who don't know about her, Chimamanda Adichie is an activist for women's rights, a TEDTalk scholar, and an author whose works include Purple Hibiscus and Half of a Yellow Sun. She is a fashion icon and has started Project Wear Nigerian with her sisters. She strives to wear clothing made by Nigerians to showcase their work and bring more business to them. Follow her story, not just for her looks, but for her words. She is an inspiration and a person I want Leocadia to have as a role model as she grows upβ€
BFFs. I can't believe this photo was taken 4 years ago! π¦β€
Leocadia arrived home with a basket of goodies from her daycare's Easter party! Mommy is going to have to hide the candy before she eats it all...
Update on the Leprechaun Catcher/trap/thingy: I know a little bit about fae (fairies, elves, brownies, etc.) lore and I learned that while most fae are relatively benign, a person definitely does NOT want to irk their ire. Leprechauns being tricksters, neither good nor evil, love to have a reason to annoy humans. But they will also help those in need. At no time, ever, does a person want to catch a Leprechaun to get wishes granted! They will be twisted and work against you. And if you catch a Leprechaun in order to get gold, well... don't. Just don't. Leprechauns can and will make your life miserable and always get their gold back. However, if you are in need of new shoes/shoe repair (or small help around the house) and you leave a piece of gold, or a bowl of milk out, the leprechaun will mend your shoes or fix what's broken as payment for your kindness. So with that in mind, I filled doll's shoes with "gold", set them over the trap, but cut a door in the back and placed a letter inside telling the Leprechaun we mean him no harm and wish only the best for him/herself.π¦πβ #saintpatricksday #leprechaun #leprechauntrap #gold #thethingsidoformykid #shamrock #catholic #irish #wearingofthegreen #nosnakesplease #fairy
