life....under construction

5 assignments due Monday, husband away and 3 birthdays to attend (2 of which I am hosting on Sunday) and a toddler I have to draaag out of puddles all weekend.
Deep breath......BIG slurp of tea!
Only 2.5 assignments left as of Saturday at 7pm, I can do 2 partial reports and make supper for 14 in 36 hours right? Sure I can!The Sprout and I took time to visit with his little buddy Owen and friends at his 2nd birthday party today. It was a great time, I love chatting with other Mommies, especially ones with sweet little Baby Dolls named Lucy and are blog buddies!
I attempted to find a suitable wrapping paper or bag for boy, tricky tricky. Above was my creative attempt to disguise TONKA trucks.....ideally pulling the bow would have unravelled the gift like a ball of yarn but the tape was too sticky for its own good. Thanks goodness for a few fellow unwrapper-helpers aged 4 and 6 who had a great time ripping off the tape bit by bit! Note to self-keep eye out for boyish wrapping paper and ditch the tape idea unless using it to accent.

...life....parties.....school......under construction!

What is under construction in your world right now?

For Halloween, I also like to grab up that spooky style caution tape from Dollarama, it's great for wrapping Halloween treats!! (And even pumpkins!)
