Spring has finally arrived in Lake Tahoe. We usually don’t get 4 seasons. It’s usually Winter and Summer/Construction. This year, we are getting a little taste of spring. 
The man was out raking the dead grass and pine needles last night and Mack found our first couple of flowers of the year. They might even be flowers from a weed. None the less, it’s a FLOWER!
I love the smell of spring, the longer days and being able to be outside without beanies and gloves.
Happy Spring!

I’m a working mom, so I love my Starbucks. I don’t go everyday by any means. (hidden message: I wish I did and could). But, let’s be real $4.85 a cup adds up real quick and I already have spending issues. I don’t need another.
My kid on the other hand… Love’s Starbucks. She feels like a queen in there. She so innocently tells the person what she wants. Tells me.. “Mom, it’s your turn!” She grabs, no joke, my visa card hands it to the cashier, says no receipt, thank you. Put’s it back in my wallet hands it back to me and then persists on me telling her “Thank you Mackenna”
WTF! I not only pay for it, but then I need to thank my daughter for buying my drink my visa card. I swear kids think they are so stinkin cute and witty.
But all in all, when you see this face at the end, it was all worth it.

Last night I buckled down and got my layout done for week #12. I’m a wee bit behind. I plan on finishing week #13 done tonight and getting the photos ordered for week #14.
I’ve found that ordering my photos and prints online through snapfish was the best for me. Then when I get the photos I do the layout. It’s been the easiest for me. Enjoy, sorry for the lame photos, took them with my phone this morning.

Everyone has there style when it comes to printing their photos for project life. I personally like the following three but mostly use one, snapfish. You have to see what best for you and which is easier for you.
Postal Pix
This app is great if you like 4X4 instagram prints and you can order them straight from your phone. There are cropping issues, where the top or bottom of the instagram photo is cut off when increasing the size to 4X6. I only print 4X4 prints with this app.
Persnickety Prints.com
Have you been searching and searching for that perfect place that prints that 3X4 size for the project life journaling slots? Well, this company prints 3X4!!! Also, they have 3X3 and 2X2 instagram size prints. Which is perfect to fit a little photo on your journal cards. I like 2X2 size the best for the journal cards.
SnapFish.com
I order most of my prints from snap fish. I love the quality, the white border, and the ease of shipping. Plus, they deals all the time on shipping and penny prints. I print most my instagram photos with this site. You can put 4 on a 4X6 collage print and they are perfect 2X2 instagram print sizes.
Hope this gives you ideas on how to print photos for project life.

Today marks 23 weeks… only molly does the second pregnancy fly by. I haven’t done a thing to prepare, except I did my registry on Saturday.
Current Weight Gain – 5lbs
Current Cravings – Spicy and Salads
In case you missed it, we found out at the beginning of the month we are having a boy!
Anyone know of any good names? I feel like boy names are so much harder then girl names.
Hope you have a great week!

I’m super late on this post. However, my poor blog has been experiencing some issues as well. Not sure what the deal is. Ever since I moved from Blogger I realized that I’m really dumb when it comes to blog techy stuff and well anyway…
This is happy Project Life post.
Here is my layout for the week. Sorry for the crummy photos. Next week I promise they will be better.
This week was the first week I had my Instagram photos printed from postal pix, and well so less stressful and for a couple dollars I’m super excited with them. You can also order them in any size you want. I started with some 4X4 and 4X6. Love, Love them.
The app is free on your iPhone. Download it!

Mackenna started swim lessons the beginning of January. Let me tell you, the kid loves the water. Almost too much!
Her first lesson went great. She was a great listener and really grasped all the swim techniques she was shown.
Last night was like any other night. Swim class right after preschool. We arrive a few minutes early. I make her use the bathroom before every swim class. I was reading my book and watching the class for about 20 minutes. I notice all of the kids are out of the pool.
Mack comes over to me with poo in her swim suit. Freaking Sweet! ugh not.
I rush her to the bathroom get her all cleaned up and dressed in her clean clothes. All of the lessons were cancelled for the night and the next day. So embarrassing.
I doubt she is the first kid to ever do it, and she won’t be the last. But, I hope its the last time for Mackenna.
BTW, there was no poop in the actual pool, it was only in her swim suit.
I really don’t want to take her back tomorrow….
