Wrapping Paper Hats

A couple of people have asked me how to do the wrapping paper hats. These pics aren't the best, but it'll give you the idea.
First you get two different kinds of wrapping paper. (I just went to the dollar store). You can just use one if you want.
Then you cut out big squares of the paper, and spray some spray glue on one of the non-print sides. You glue the non print sides together, so it is printed on both the top and bottom.

Then you put it on the little person's head like so...

...and have someone else help you. You hold it on their head while someone else tapes around their head. We used masking tape, but I've seen those colored painters tapes that you could use. That would be pretty cute.

And lastly, you cut off the excess. I would take it off the head to do this, don't follow my example in the picture. Then you can decorate it with whatever you want. I got flowers from the dollar store, but you can get whatever, or just leave it as is. The kids loved them. Erin still has hers! Hope this helps.

My New Fashion Accessory

Oh yes, I know you're all jealous! look at the lines, the color, the absolute fabulosness of it all! You only WISH you had an accessory like this. I bet you all want to walk down your stairs with a load of laundry, talking on the phone and miss a step and fall down the stairs just to get this little number. Don't fight it, just let the en vogue-ness of it all wash over you! I can't wait 'till I see what it looks like with a dress!

What's in a name?

I would like you all to meet Teddy, Liam's friend for a couple of years now. Liam sleeps with this bear. We got him at Bear Lake, Liam's favorite place in the world (besides Grandma's house). Liam decided Teddy needed a friend so we got...

...this guy. After thinking about it for a while, Liam decided to name him. I thought it would be generic like Teddy, right? No, he named him...wait for it...

Line Figure.
