I love watching my children grow–but I refuse to accept the idea that this means I’m getting any older! Happy Thursday!

Custom Monograms
What is it about Southern ladies and our monograms?
We love them on display just about anywhere
including our front porches
and especially on our children!
My custom jumpers and jon jons are my favorite items in the Personality Children’s Clothes shop. Why? Because they are monogrammed, of course!
Plus, since each garment is made to order, you can choose the colors you need. Classic tone-on-tone monograms are beautiful, but you can also match a holiday or party theme.
Another great idea: use your favorite team colors to design a jon jon or jumper for the fall.
Happy Shopping!
Are we there yet? Are we there yet?
Is it time? Is it time? Is it time?
Almost!
Football season is just around the corner! Whoo Hoo!

I’m a die-hard fan of the New Orleans Saints, so I’m counting down the hours until the preseason starts this Friday evening.
Momma and Daddy will be enjoying the game from their seats in the Superdome. I’m just hoping to listen to it on the radio and maybe catch it on satelite. Maybe with this little guy and his parents.
So…I have a really important question for you? What’s your favorite gametime food? I love chips and dip, but I’m ready for a new recipe, Have you got a great snackin’ recipe to share with me?
Treasure!
I love Etsy treasuries!
Etsy explains their treasuries as “ever-changing, member-curated shopping gallery.” I think they are a fun way to find items around a theme or group some of your favorite things.
I love to make my own treasuries, like this one:

Lots and Lots of Gingham
Pick a color.
Any color.
I probably have it.
Just ask.
There’s a piece of seersucker hiding out in there too!
Crazy Mornings!
Are mornings at your house crazy?
Mine are. Seriously crazy.
This summer I’ve scoured the internet looking for helpful tips for organizing, cleaning, etc. And what have I learned? Routines, routines, routines!
I’ve spent the past month saying the same thing every morning:
Go make your bed, get dressed, pick up any dirty laundry, put away the clothes I put on your dresser last night, and come out ready to be happy and obedient.
The kids have just about mastered that set of instructions–though we still work on the happy and obedient thing. A LOT.
With school starting in 22 days, I decided to make them a little reminder for their morning routine.
If you like these, you are welcome to print them. Clicking on the images should take you to the .pdf files. These are designed to print on regular printer paper and be trimmed down to 8 x 10 so they will fit nicely in a frame.
