Funny Things this Kid of Mine says & does

Wednesday night she was being a complete terd! I told her if she didn't straighten up she was going to be sent to her room. She says "K, I go to my room" and off she went. That threat didn't work!
Yesterday, she went to stay with Mama Carole. She was all excited cause she hadn't been there in a week due to Uncle's wedding. She told Mama yesterday, while squeezing her legs together, that she does this and kitty goes "Meow"! And she does do that every once in a while in order to keep kitty in her lap and she gets in trouble for it.
After eating last night, Aunt Emily took her outside to play so that I could clean up her mess from the day. When I went out, Uncle came home so I told Josie to run down to his house and knock on the door. So off Josie & Emily go. Course first words out of her mouth is "butthead", which is what Uncle taught her. She came running back to me to tell me that Uncle said Butthead. I told her to go wip his butt, and she did, then she herself said, butthead, and told Emily, that she would wip her butt and she did. So she knows it's wrong but won't quit saying it.
Once we got home, she got mad at me for something after her bath and came in the bathroom, yelled at me and then spit a raspberry at me. I went in the living room after her, picked her up and put her on the couch and told her she was in trouble for being hateful and she could just sit on the couch until I told her to get up. So while she was sitting on the couch, I was picking things up before bedtime and she would continuously go " Mom", me "What", her "Nothing". Then repeat it all over again. She then finally asked if she could get up and I told her yes if she came and told me she was sorry and gave me a hug. So she did and while doing so told me she was a brat.
This morning, while getting ready to leave, I told her to go give her kitty a kiss goodbye and that we would see her tonight. She picks her up and is bouncing her around like you would a baby, and says "mommy, kitty not cooperating" Don't know where she heard that one from because then she proceeds to tell the kitty as she is turning her around to face her so she could kiss her. "You wear me out!". Ha!!!! She sounds like Mommy! :-)
Like Granny says, there is only one Josie. And Mama Carole says, could you imagine if she would have had twins!
So what are you saying Grandma's?!!! Hee Hee!
Anyway, here are some photos that I hadn't posted yet. Yes Becky!, here is one of Blue too!!!
These photos were taken on the 12th @ Riley's football game.
MacKenzie's birthday party at Karst Farm Splash Pad. The kids had a blast. Allyson got Domino's pizza which I hadn't had since they changed their recipe and it was really good.
Michelle & Cindy didn't want the ice cream to be thrown away so they just ate it out of the container.
Well I think that catches me back up again! Oh No! One more note, Josie wanted to get on the scales last night and she weighed 32.8 lbs at 2 yrs, 2 months and 4 days.

Scrappin!

Well Bummer! I didn't make the CT team at Jessica Sprague. But that won't stop me from hanging out there, I learn way too much. And you're never to old to continue learning. It just would've made my wallet happier! 
Anyway, I will be starting back to making my templates and selling them on Etsy. You can check out the few templates that I have up at my shop, Love Me Some Memories. My plan now is to get back to working on them and getting more up. I laid off of it hoping I would make this team and I wasn't allowed by the regulations to be a designer. My plans are to have a free template available here on Fridays for one week and then it will be for sale at the shop. So go check me out, and support my Jessica Sprague habit.   
Here are some recent layouts that I made and hadn't posted yet.

And here are some I have not posted but did a while ago and don't have the information readily available. If there is a product you are interested in knowing where it came from, let me know and I'll see what I can find.
I'm pretty sure they were all made with Photoshop Phriday tutorials at Jessica Sprague.

Well that's it for now on the scrapbooking side of my life. Will hopefully update tomorrow with some photos of our new kitty "Blue". She took place of Josie's paci.

Wish me luck!!!

Jessica Sprague site, the site I "hang out" at all the time is running a CT call for the 2nd time this year. I have applied with the following pages. I didn't realize til I'd already posted them, they basically have the same color layouts! Bummer!!!
And then I've also been on another Scrapping roll. Check these out!



Sweet Summer & School Rules Kit by Snip & Snails

I have had these layouts that I haven't been able to post until the kit release for about a month now. These kits are awesome and so versatile.
Take this kit for instance, School Rules, I have a Two year old daughter. Therefore, she doesn't go to school yet, but i was still able to use the kit!

Then there is this kit, Sweet Summer. So vibrant. Most the elements are "popsicle,beach" type themes. However, I used it for something completely different.
Just shows not to ever judge a "kit" by it's cover!


Autumn Harvest Kit

Today is the release of the Autumn Harvest Kit over at http://www.digitalscrapink.com/. Go check it out! Very pretty, formal Autumn papers. I used them to scrap a layout of Grandma Glodyne and her siblings as young children. I love these old photos!


Crisp Layout

This kit went up for sale today over at http://www.elementalscraps.com/  created by Valarie Ostrom. It is great for some fall/halloween photos. I didn't have any yet for this year so I used it for a general layout about my feelings for Josie.
It has the cutest little owl in the kit though and I can't wait to use it! Go check it out!
