This week my feature is the Spring Bento lunchbox! I remember how special I thought it was when my mom would stick a little note in my lunch bag when I went off to school. Granted my kids aren't old enough for lunchboxes yet, but I can imagine how special this would be for them!

2. Randi's Pick - Tissue Paper Butterfly
3. Ashley's Pick - Cardboard Cat House

Annie's Homegrown Freezer Meals

Thanks to the wonderful people over at Influenster, I was recently given the opportunity to try one of Annie's Homegrown freezer meals for free!

Now I know what you are thinking, freezer meals. Blah! Those are terrible! But it's simply not the truth in this case! Some days, I just don't have time to cook from scratch (mainly on work nights, when I sometimes get home too tired to even consider cooking), so we turn to convenience foods in these instances! This one did not disappoint! And since Annie's is known for using real ingredients, I felt a little better about feeding it to my youngins. 

We went to our local Target store, and we chose the Lasagna With Meat Sauce family size meal. Simple cooking directions, and we had dinner! Took very little time, and not only myself, but my toddler and husband, agreed that it was delicious! (And let me tell you, those two are TOUGH critics. 

I'd like to share a $2 off any Annie's Family Size Frozen Meal coupon with my readers!

Disclosure : I was provided a coupon from Influenster for a free product. All opinions noted are my own.

St Patrick's Day Ink Pad Fun!

Getting a toddler and a 6 month old (what?!?!?) to listen and cooperate is definitely not the easiest thing in the world to do. Thanks to fun times at daycare, Piper absolutely LOVES making hand prints. So I figured, why not take advantage of that fact, and do a project that she will easily cooperate with?

I started off by making a header in photo shop, and printing it on a thick linen cardstock.

 I kept it pretty basic here. Next step, is to find a lovely assistant!

Miss P fits the bill!

Getting all ink covered is some HARD work!

We did both hands on the bottom, and then we used thumbprints to make the smaller 4 leaf clovers in the center.

Next step was to find some adorable chubby baby feet! Mr I fit the bill here!

Filled in the blank space with Ian's footprints, and ta-dahhhhhh! Personalized artwork! I think I want to make a field of thumbprint clovers now....
