Always Homemade: October 2013
http://lisasalwayshomemade.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 30, 2013. Gender Neutral Baby Shower Gift. I used Grant's old bibs as a template for these. I give these burp cloths. At the last minute I realized I didn't have a card, which happens to me a lot. I tend to forget to include one and have the guest of honor who the gift is from, to which I have to shout over every one "that ones from me". So I got out my Cricut and my Boys Will Be Boys Cricut Lite cartridge and made this:. Tuesday, October 29, 2013. Mama Ramblings: Quiet Time. Even if m...

Always Homemade: August 2013
http://lisasalwayshomemade.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 29, 2013. There are a few things I ALWAYS try to keep in my freezer and I look for these items on sale or on manager special marked down. Having these things always helps when trying to get by on spending less at the grocery store. It makes it easy to throw meals together on the fly and makes it possible for me to have a tiny grocery budget. Meat In an ideal world I would have smoked sausage, chicken breast, ground beef, pork loin, pork chops, and beef roast in my freezer at all times...

Always Homemade: Flubber Fun
http://lisasalwayshomemade.blogspot.com/2014/06/flubber-fun.html
Friday, June 13, 2014. Since I started watching my 10 year old cousin this summer I've been scouring the internet and trying my best to come up with some activities that will both occupy a 10 year old and 3 year old and will keep their attention for more than 37 seconds. 3/4 cup cold water. 1 cup Elmer’s glue. 1/2 cup hot water. 1 teaspoon borax (you can find this in a box in the laundry aisle). Step 1: in bowl 1 – mix together the cold water, glue, and food coloring. set aside. Disclaimer: if your child...

Always Homemade: Hulk and Iron Man Freezer Paper Stencil Shirt
http://lisasalwayshomemade.blogspot.com/2014/07/hulk-and-iron-man-freezer-paper-stencil.html
Friday, July 18, 2014. Hulk and Iron Man Freezer Paper Stencil Shirt. That's what my 3 year old runs around our house saying.over, and over and over. He loves the Avengers. He loves superheroes. He always notices the shirts in all the stores with these characters on them but lets face it, I'm not made of money, he has plenty of other shirts, and they are always upwards of $15 each. She makes it herself of course. Of course the wording immediately came to me, it had to be, Hulk Smash! Another trip to Hobb...

Always Homemade: Peekaboo Bonnet for Eva
http://lisasalwayshomemade.blogspot.com/2014/07/peekaboo-bonnet-for-eva.html
Monday, July 21, 2014. Peekaboo Bonnet for Eva. I saw the Peekaboo Bonnet pattern. Over at Made By Rae. While I was pregnant with Eva and fell in love with it. I told my husband if we had a girl I was buying that pattern and I would make her a dozen of those cute little bonnets. I kept reading reviews for the pattern and of course everyone said how easy and quick the pattern was but I still didn't believe them so I let the pattern sit.stupid me. Is this not the cutest little bonnet EVER! Boo-Boo Bear ice...

Always Homemade: Smore's Trail Mix
http://lisasalwayshomemade.blogspot.com/2014/07/smores-trail-mix.html
Thursday, July 17, 2014. Enter in trail mix, not just any trail mix.s'mores trail mix. Does trail mix get any better than that, and who doesn't love s'mores? If you answered, "me" to that question you are either lying to yourself, or haven't tried one made to perfection. Either way you will love this and so will your kids. It's as simple as pouring some Golden Grahams cereal, mini marshmallows, and chocolate chips in a bowl, giving it a stir, and separating it into those cute little snack baggies. Relay ...

Always Homemade: July 2013
http://lisasalwayshomemade.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 30, 2013. Week #8- The Over Budget Grocery Shopping. That's where I'm at today. I'm in a mood, and not a great one. No worries because I know me and I know this coming week will be back to normal with the usual hours spent clipping, organizing, and making lists to stick to my $30. I guess maybe everyone needs a break sometimes. Maybe every one needs to get out of the norm for a day or so to get rejuvenated. If not this is what I'm going to tell myself to make me feel better. 2 blue bonnet m...

Always Homemade: Shaving Cream Bathtub Paint
http://lisasalwayshomemade.blogspot.com/2014/06/shaving-cream-bathtub-paint.html
Wednesday, June 11, 2014. Shaving Cream Bathtub Paint. I think the "recipe" on the original website used food coloring instead of washable paint but after cleaning up the cool whip we played with and seeing the food coloring stain Grant's entire arm, I was afraid it may also stain the walls of the tub. The last thing I wanted was to have to scrub the tub walls any more than I do already. Labels: bath tub paint. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. About to POP baby shower.

Always Homemade: Cool Whip Sensory Play
http://lisasalwayshomemade.blogspot.com/2014/06/cool-whip-sensory-play.html
Monday, June 9, 2014. Cool Whip Sensory Play. Summer is in full swing and while we spend most mornings, starting between 8:30 and 9am at one of our local parks, the afternoons I'm left to figure out something that will entertain a 3 year old, a 10 year old, and 1 day a week a 2 year old. That can be really difficult, especially in a small space like ours. I used some food coloring for extra fun and Grants whole arm was stained a nice shade of grayish blue. I think next time I will use a smidge of his...
