Bows!

So I've been addicted to getting Peyton those little boutique bows. I just love them, they're SO cute! When I first started picking them up I recall them being pretty inexpensive- a buck or two here and there. Since they've become more popular though they've gotten quite expensive... I'm talking $5 for one clip!
I decided I'd try to make some on my own. I got some ribbon at the craft store for 60¢ a spool, I already had a glue gun so I just had to find the alligator clips. Those would prove to be the most expensive. I know in the states you can get them really cheap at beauty supply stores, I was able to find some at the yen($1) store... they're weren't as cheap though. I got a 4 pack for ¥105 after conversion that's about $1.33.
Anyway there are some pictures of the few I've made so far, like I said I've only got 4 clips to work with, LOL. I have a friend visiting the states that is supposed to pick me up a box of clips.
Ready to go to the park!

I had get this clip when I saw it from a boutique on base it was too adorable!

Enjoying some chalk, lol

I didn't make this headband I picked it up from a boutique selling at the BX
I didn't make this bow either, from what I've read online they're easy to make I just don't have any dowel rods to curl the ribbon.

Love this graffiti down at the seawall

Typhoon lego tower!

Lately Peyton has been SO particular about what she wants! In this video I'd taken her Elmo doll off the coffee table where she put him and she couldn't stand it! She had to get him from me and put it back!

Smarty-Pants!

Peyton is really mastering her ABC's! She started to recognize almost all the lower case letters too! Here are a couple videos from today where she's showing off her smarts!
