A little love... or "what I would have done if..."



I wanted to make these in chocolate chip!
I've been dreaming up Valentine's Day plans for weeks now... and I've been using my new Pinterest account to help me!  I knew I wouldn't get to everything, but I thought that maybe if I could do just one or two, it would make the day special for my littles. 

Step one was going to be spending time talking about love... God's love, how we are to love one another, etc.  Now, we did do some "heart" activities early in the month and we've been memorizing Matthew 22:37-40, so I'm not a total failure, but as for the things below to make today special... not so much. 

But, I comfort myself with the reminder that it's been a bit hectic around here lately and I'm feeling pretty good to have gotten dinner on the table most nights.  :)

You see, all three of my children have been working through high fevers at their own paces over the last week and a half.  :(  Poor kids!  My 18 month old has it now.  Couple that with seemingly constant contractions and reduced (even more than normal) sleep for me... and an OB appointment this morning early, and it's no wonder things didn't happen!

So here are some of my favs from my V-Day board on Pinterest.  Click over to see the rest and link through to the originals!


Love the recycling happening here... if only I hadn't eaten all the candy canes!



Was totally going to make these with the kids for grandparents and single ladies at church!

Maybe someday...




I want to make this long one for another season too... maybe with changeable covers!



I ground the flour for these yesterday... do I get partial credit???



Love these!!  Maybe for Sweet Pea's birthday instead... in pink!

So there you have it... Woulda coulda shoulda... maybe next time! :)  Instead of beating myself up though, I'm moving on to what I may be able to accomplish before tonight gets here... dinner maybe???  And a candle?

In the mean time, we're working to keep that fever lower than 103.8... yep.  Poor baby! :(

December Giveaway ~ Free Pampered Chef Recipe Book!

Ok faithful readers (and guests)... it's time for December's giveaway! In honor of the season for celebrating Christ's birth and all the fun gatherings we have, I am giving away Pampered Chef's Celebrate! cookbook. I've looked and it doesn't look like it is available anymore... so this could be your one chance to add it to your library! I just flipped through it and I'm almost ready to change my mind... everything looks so yummy! It is a gently used book that I just haven't used since being married... so I want one of you to get some use out of it!

Ok... so this is how we are going to do things (thanks to Molly-Coddled for the idea in her giveaway last month). If you want to be entered for the Pampered Chef cookbook (full of all the wonderful Pampered Chef recipes!), leave a comment on this post AND make a post of your own about this giveaway on your blog linking back here! This way lots of people can have a chance! What if you don't have a blog??? That is fine too... please just send an email out to a few people you know might be interested and let me know you did that in your comment! :) I trust you!

Friday night (December 7th) I will close the contest and sometime Saturday I will post the winner! :) I hope you can all have fun with this!

Blessings!

Fall Y'all Giveaway!

This Contest is now Closed! See Above post for the winner!
Wow, my first giveaway. I never expected it to come so soon. I talked to my DH this morning about the possibility of participating in Fall Y'all this time. I told him I would just think about whether there were anything we could give. He said that was fine. After he left for work I sat down to check on some of the blogs I have been checking recently and I went over to see who won the giveaway last week on Molly-Coddled. I never would have expected it to be ME! I had to check a couple times to make sure. Sure enough, I won that fun Taste of Home Cookbook and Magazine Subscription! I almost feel bad. I never (well, rarely anyway) win anything and am so excited!


So, with the coming addition of that super fun cookbook, I feel as though I want to give back. We live in a very small space and in order to make room for my new cookbook, I want to pass on something from my cookbook shelf.
For several years before DH and I were married I sold Pampered Chef. During that time I collected a number of Pampered Chef tools and cookbooks, including 8 Season's Best Recipe Cookbooks. Unfortunately, I have barely used these over the years and think it is time to bless someone who will get use out of them. This giveaway includes those 8 Season's Best Recipe Cookbooks, a Season's Best Case, and a bonus Classic's Cookbook. Pampered Chef recipes are some of the easiest to follow and produce excellent meals! I often said during my Pampered Chef Shows that it is "impossible to mess up a Pampered Chef recipe... I've tried!"

To enter in our giveaway, please leave a comment (make sure to leave your name if you check off anonymous). Let me know if this is your first time to visit Stay at Home Mommy, or if you have visited before. This won't affect your chances (I will pick at random), I'm just curious to know who has been here. And to really get me excited (more so than winning that cookbook), comeback and visit again!

I will announce the winner sometime Saturday, November 3rd, so check back in with us!

Sorry, but I can only afford to ship to those in the US or Canada (but I'd still love to know you visit!).
