This is my dog, Sparky.
Well, actually, he wanted me to call him, “Sparkle”. But, no boy should have a name like that! It took me a long time to convince him that pink should not be his favorite color. Now he wants to be a dog named Sparkle! Ugh! And his teacher thinks he should take ballet lessons! Ackkkkkk~!!!! I already have a cute daughter who looks like a boy (Thank goodness for her long hair though!) I don’t need my boy to be girly.

I made him make his own dog tag. He wanted to sparkle up his collar with A Muse Twinkle Stickers. I usually cut up the gems one by one with an exacto knife, but he just ripped it up from the sticker backing.
He IS a BOY!



Stamps: Animal Wishes, Tractor from A Muse
Clear Tag: Tim Holtz Idea-ology Fragments: Clear Charms
Stamped with Staz-on ink and colored with Copic.

And here is my tag. Created for A Muse Lounge Challenge #10: Tag, You’re It!!
Tag card was inspired by Jennie’s card.

See the tag on the gift box?

Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving. Mine was crazy. 27 people in my small house! I was so tired, I didn’t even go out for shopping on Black Friday (GASP!!!!!!!!!!!!). Instead, I baked some cookies.
I wanted chocolate cookies, but didn’t have any chocolate morsels, so baked snickerdoodle instead. Found the recipe from Martha Stwart cookie magazine/book that I bought 3 years ago, but never baked anything from it till now.

Here’s my very first attempt at baking cookies from scratch (with my son’s help). Heeheehee. I thought I smelled something burning in the oven. Well, at least some came out okie, and it was yum. Maybe I’ll get btter at baking if I practice more.
THANKS~~~

Your little dog is very cute!
Did you have to convince him that a truck should go on his necklace? If not, he’s a BOY! 
I love his smile on the last photo. And I also like your little (double) tag.

Your posts are always so funny! Your son is not only adorable, he’s got a cute sense of humor! And that necklace is so fun! I especially loved his smile!
And that tag is fab! Love the index card and the liquid “snow.”

Oh how our boys will love us when they look back and see the photos we took of them when they were little. Kyle’s personality jumps out from the photo. I love it!
