I was tagged by Krystyn

I am supposed to post pictures of one of my favorite things or something I love in my house! There are plenty of things, but tonight as I sat here, I thought of this sweet magical thing! My baby sleeping like a rock in his bed! There is nothing I love more than to walk in there and see him sleeping!

Then of course I saw my scrapbook corner! That has to be one of my favorite things to do in the house! AS you can see, my Disney bag is sitting on the floor...I'm waiting for my prints from Kodak, and them I'm getting busy! ;)
Then I'm supposed to take a pic of the things I need when I leave the house, as in things in my purse! Ihave to say, its pretty clean b/c I switched purses yesterday! (ok, so I cheated!)

Here I have my contact solution, advil, my wallet, orbit gum, mini deodarant, some candy from the movies, my brush, and sunglasses!

my keys, allergy pills, makeup bag, phone, and the great book I'm reading right now!

Theres usually alot more crap, but this purse is a bit smaller! I've usually got goldfish, cars, and whatever else Landon has decided to stick in there!
