okay so I have finally had some time to clean my scrapbooking room...I pretty much have everything where I want it to be {again} and for once it is clean. I am going to try really hard to keep it clean and organized, yeah right! It is so hard but its usually a creative mess.
And on with the pictures! This was before I had painted and moved everything in...
and here are the close ups...

And this was on Tuesday...still a little sickling, but I had wanted to take some pictures of her in this new Carter's outfit, I got it at Ross for $4.99...yeah baby, love sweet deals! Of course she had to keep taking her ribbon off her head...so we didn't get that great of pictures!
actually just going through all these pictures...and every single one of them are of her taking off her ribbon!

This was Gulianna this past Monday...we had lunch with Claudia in Idaho Falls, I came back to use the computer at the store...and she threw up her chicken noodle soup on the floor. I had to scrub her dress in the sink...it was still wet when we left the store, so she got to ride in the car with just her leggings on! We were on our way to see Levi at the house that he has been working on...she was thirsty when we got there!

So yesterday we ended up staying late at Scrapalicious to paint some frames. I had the front door open, and once again I heard the ice cream man, and it really was him~FINALLY! So we had stopped him to get some ice cream...an OREO bar {these are the best} and an orange cream bar
we went back inside to eat our ice cream...I put the orange cream bar in the little mini freezer, and when I opened it...I found out that there was already some ice cream bars in there-strawberry creamies! What the .......??!! So I had ice cream this whole time!? I don't even remember those being in there. Anyways...so the next morning I decided to have an ice cream bar, I opened the freezer and they were all MELTED! Some how...it wasn't cold enough, I don't know, but I was pissed off, why ME!
Oh well...anyway here's some pictures of Gulianna enjoying the OREO bar!
YUMMY!

This topic of discussion came into my head the other day, when I was painting some frames. I always seem to have discussions with myself in my head. And I said in my head, not out loud, so people don't think I'm psycho or something!
I always hear:
"I'm not that creative..."
"You're so talented..."
"I wish I could do that..."
Do you learn to be creative from your parents, by watching them share their talents? Are you born into talent? Sometimes I see kids that have found their talent, and their parents think they have some sort of genius, because they aren't talented and wonder where it came from. Or the other way around. Talented or just lazy that they didn't take the time to discover themselves and all the possibilities that they can do?
Do some people have it, and others just don't? {okay maybe I'll take that one back... ;) just kidding!} {no I'm not, why do I always argue with myself. No I do not have a split personality! lol}
The thing is that I believe everyone has some sort of talent that they can share with others, some know what they are good at, and others may not have a clue, or just haven't developed there talent. You can always learn and be better at what you do, if you take the time to invest in what it is that you are good at. Mind you most of the important talents are not tangible ones, like kindness and generosity. It is what we do with what we have been given, our gratitute, service, and sharing.
So don't be lazy, get out there and go find out what you are good at, don't be selfish, and share with others. Or you could just sit there and say that you can't do anything, it's your choice.

So I was reminded yesterday by a blog lurker, that my blog hasn't been updated...WHaT? It's only been a week...lol. If I feel like it and have time then I will if not, then too bad!
So on with the randomness...

Gulianna always hangs out right by the door, but this time she finally walked around it...OUTSIDE!

It has been a cooler day today so I've had the front door open here at the store. Earlier I swear I heard an icecream truck, so I picked up Gulianna to see where he was coming from, so we could flag him down. I heard the music, but I couldn't see him.
DANG IT...we really wanted icecream!
Well now, Gulianna is taking a little nap, and all of sudden I heard the "music" again, so I walked outside looking around, only to realize no one is around...
as I thought to myself, "oh how convenient, now he's here, and Gulianna's asleep, OH WELL! more ice cream for me!
and it's a Wendy's commercial on the radio....LMAO!

more like EVERY freakin' day...
This is typically what a section of the store looks like right before a customer walks in.

So Gulianna lOvEs to try and carry the diaper bag, or purse or whatever bag is lying around. This morning was the beach bag in the bathroom, this afternoon was the diaper bag at the store. I had it sitting in the back room, and then I heard Gulianna coming through the doorway, but she let out a disgruntled squeal...I looked over and she was trying to lug the diaper bag into the front of the store! She had almost made it, but it was a lot of work for her...the camera, and a refill of wipes were in there! But she did it! She had the strap around her shoulder and was dragging it along!
this ones blurry, but still cute...

Gulianna took her first TWO steps tonight at Amanda's reception! No pictures though...I didn't even know it was coming! And on 8/08/08...that's easy to remember!
