This is why every kid needs to keep a journal (@thisismejournal) RT @brenbot: Easter artwork by me circa 1988. http://bit.ly/e1ZmZ8 #
Even better. RT @brenbot: Also circa 1988, after the Easter egg hunt. Must have eaten too many peeps. http://bit.ly/houEWx #

Praying 4 my sister's family. They have a court date in Ethiopia to finalize the adoption of their son this week. #cantwaittomeetmynephew #
My baby's 5 months old! http://instagr.am/p/Di6xG/ #
Hey, I happen to be at the computer during #crafterminds today! #
Because I keep my blog primarily for myself & not as a business, I blog about whatever I want. People still seem to enjoy it! #crafterminds #
If I were to pick my niche, it'd be a running & biking blog for moms who sew #crafterminds #
Or my niche might be a sewing & crafting blog for moms who #run #crafterminds #
That being said, my new blog (going live soon) covers a definite niche: Refashioning for kids (@weefashionistas) #crafterminds #
Refashioning for kids is a niche where I feel I have a unique experience and skills. Can't wait 2 get it finally up & running! #crafterminds #

How does one prepare a 3yo for minor surgery? #goodbyeadenoids #
I'm quite certain this infant swing was not designed for 40lb 3 year olds http://instagr.am/p/DjaVn/ #
Thank you @HitTheMarkFit. Now my arms are going to be completely useless to me today. #
Did a fitness workout for 1 hour and felt good. Top Half Tuesday with HitTheMarkFitness.com and now my arms f… http://dailymile.com/e/SJnc #

Having a "China Study" vegan friend & a "Cross Fit" paleo buddy has left me thinking no matter what I eat, it's going 2 B toxic to my body. #
I think they could both agree on this organic carrot. #vegan #paleo #
Big Brother (3yo) fed the baby(5mo) a jelly bean. Luckily, he was so proud of sharing, he let me know right away & I fished it out. #
Looking forward to taking the family to hear a quintet from the Pacific Symphony play Beethoven tonight at my daughters school. #
You know you're in Utah when…. http://ow.ly/1sH9a1 #springbreak #
I've rocked the minivan for 5 years but now it's a Swagger Wagon. http://instagr.am/p/Dln1m/ #
Hey @skylerwallace, @Toyota Sienna moms want to know where they can get a "Swagger Wagon" badge of their very own @jenimus #
It's just minor surgery 4 my little guy, but those extremely rare risks of anesthesia keep working their way up to the front of my mind. #
Just heard from @toddsonaride. Our little guy's adenoid removal is done and went well. #phewsh #
I think our adenoid surgery patient is doing well. He just plowed through a banana, 2 soft waffles, 3 pieces of string cheese, & yogurt. #
My favorite #sewing projects of the year are always the Easter dresses for my girls http://bit.ly/myZzbE #refashion #
This year's Easter Dresses are courtesy a beautiful thrifted quilt top http://bit.ly/myZzbE #thrifting #sewing #refashion #
Looks like the tooth fairy is going to have double duty at our house tonight. #
Got news that my sister's Ethopian adoption passed through court. I'll get to meet my new 13yo nephew in June! #
What relationship is my nephew's son to me? How about to my kids? It gets so complicated in big & close families. #
I kind of love 'em RT @TOMSshoes: TOMS Mother's Day Shoe is here! Gonna sell out quick – pick up special pair 4 Mom: http://toms.sh/iTjkzi #
That makes me sound incredible old and wrinkly RT @ryanschade: @thisiscarrie Great Aunt, 2nd cousin #
Recovered the patio dining set chairs. http://instagr.am/p/DnbtQ/ #
The baby woke up 2 eat at the perfect point of the night to let me catch a glimpse of the dress. The dress was all I wanted 2 see. #perfect #
And now a lost binky got me out of bed and on my way to @HitTheMarkFit! #
Was wondering the same thing! RT @according2kelly: @RunRacing @OCmarathon is there an #OCmarathon hashtag? #
I'm pretty excited about the new @orangehomegrown Old Town Orange Saturday Farmers Market. May 7th is opening day! #
Trying my hand at making @artisanbreadin5 Rosemary Flax Baguettes. #
Me too! RT @cupcakeactivist: Great day at #ocmarathon expo with @runteamsparkle. Can't wait to see the rainbow of skirts racing tomorrow! #
Love these free downloas from @30daysblog. I choose: "Given enough fabric, I could rule the world" http://bit.ly/jRefLA #
We all pulled on our sparkle skirt to cheer on our @runteamsparkle peeps @ocmarathon this morning. http://instagr.am/p/Dv9jh/ #
I love that my girls jump at the chance to go cheer on runners even when it means getting up at 5 in the morning #ocmarathon #goteamsparkle #
