Sticky Stuff

Carrie really likes stickers. I usually stick to my rule (no pun intended) that she can only get 3 off the page at a time, so she won't use them all up at once. Well yesterday I wasn't looking and she did this.
Stickers all over her foot and leg. I thought it kind of looked like she had a cast. :) She was so proud of herself and her "art project".

I know I always write about how much of a girly girl she is, but on the other end of the spectrum, she LOVES playing with cars! She has several little toy cars that she drives all over the house. Up and down the legs of the kitchen table is her favorite spot to go cruising. Soon after the sticker project, she told me that Lightning McQueen wanted to have his picture taken..... OK......

While she was playing cars, I was busy making cupcakes for my friend's baby shower. And just in case you were wondering, one box of cake mix makes 64 mini cupcakes. Sixty..... Four..... Holy moly, I didn't know what I was going to do with so many cupcakes!!! We were only expecting about 20 people at the baby shower! I decorated 40 of them as cute little lions.

And decorated the leftover 24 as little "shirt 'n' tie" combos. Yesterday and today Justin and his coworkers had to wear ties to work rather than just the usual polo and slacks. So I decided to give them a little chocolate treat for having to dress up on casual Friday.

It was fun to do, but very tedious! I know they're not perfect, but seriously, look at the detail! And keep in mind these are mini cupcakes. Very small.....

Cute cupcakes!!! And seriously less than an hour ago my kids had hundreds of stickers up and down both their arms. I think Carrie and my girls would be fast friends!!!

Wow, those tie cupcakes are adorable. Did everyone at Justin's work like them? Great idea. The lion cupcakes are so cute and every post about Carrie's little antics is just adorable, I laugh as I am reading each of them. She is tooooooo much and so smart, watch out who knows what she is going to think up next. Love you guys.
