more Mamas,Pappas and bambinos...

More Mammas and Pappas with their bambinos...I will be updating my ETSY store later with these mixed media originals...I've had wonderful feedback...from you (thank you kindly) and from friends who have seen them...builing inventory for our Mamas and Chicks Show. I think people like originals, one of a kind...for an affordable price...what do you think?

I'm off to pick up our girls...This was little Miss J's first day at school...doesn't she look cute standing there next to her big sis! The dress is by one of our Vendor's at our Show...Tiny Modernist. Miss A was wearing another one of hers on her first day at school.

Was it tough? for me...yes,a little...for J? I think she nearly broke down, but as soon as she saw her teacher...she was fine.(BIG sigh of relief)

I hope you're enjoying your Monday!!!

HUGS to you all...

LOVE notes x2

It can be quite a tear jerking and an emotional experience saying goodbye to your little ones the first day back at school...not just for us Mums, but for the little siblings too.

As you can tell, little miss A was VERY excited(a little nervous) about going back to school.

Little miss J starts next week.

So...I'm back into drawing a little something for our girls to open in their Lunch/snack packs...now Little A can read, I can add more words and thoughts for her.

Today I drew her on an Elephant. I am still sitting here with over 200 pieces of paper filled with sketches from the last 2 years which I have to either make a book from digital picture entries or create a scrapbook for her to keep.

Next week it will be the start of 2x the sketches per day!

I think I will need some pre-planning to help alieviate the stress of forgetting the lunch notes on some mornings...

What special something do you send to school with your little ones?

Ok...back to cleaning...and laundry and sketching this afternoon.

HUGS

Lazy Sunday's...are the best!

This was our sky this morning at our local park...I can't really comprehend the red leaves yet...it's WAY too soon for Fall to be upon us...right? BUT it did make for an incredible photo *smile*
We've been enjoying a lazy weekend.
Mr.R went Scuba diving...it was quite the drive,we were up and out of our house with the girls by 5am to be at the Dive site by 9am(we hung out at the local Town-had Breakfast and went to local parks)...another hour and we could have enjoyed the weekend in Montreal.(maybe I'll plan better next year!!!)
There's always so much going on in Montreal. Lots of street Markets...and the TAM TAM is happening today up at Mount Royal...the link shows you a little movie to what it's all about.
You can find Cara Carmina there selling her wares...she makes beautiful dolls and cards.

I've been making my lists for the week ahead.(it's aLONG list...won't bore you all)

We have just one more week until school starts...
DO ANY of you have a little one starting school for the first time this year?
I think we have prepped little miss J enough...but I'm not 100% sure.
I asked her at the park if she'll be ok...and said "you won't miss Mummy too much...right J?"
Her reply was " Mummy, I won't be THAT far away from you!!!"
So...I'm hoping this is a good sign and she seems excited.

I have some sketches to show you from our day trip yesterday...Mr.R took the camera 65ft under and has it packed away right now...later I'll show you...told you it was a Lazy Sunday...

HUGS...and cups of Tea.
