The designers here seriously just blow me away every week and this week they exploded with awesomeness!!! If you haven&#8217;t checked out the forum yet, there are some awesome challenges by the SugarBabes to help you earn some points toward your portfolio this month&#8230; there are 10 great challenges and I had a blast playing along with some of them. You can find them <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetshoppecommunity.com\/forum\/forumdisplay.php?f=164\">HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Today I am celebrating my sweet little boy who entered my life 3 years ago. After 4 miscarriages, we did IVF in February of 2008 and then welcomed our sweet, super active Isaac, nicknamed &#8220;Bruiser&#8221;, in November. Every day I&#8217;m so thankful for my sweet little miracle who constantly keeps me on my toes. He brings a smile to my face every day along with constant heart attacks LOL. I&#8217;m not sure how this boy is still alive sometimes. I love that he loves construction vehicles and trains and cars and handyman tools. He is definitely &#8220;all boy&#8221; and I&#8217;ve learned so much from being his mama.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">So&#8230; I love gifts, it&#8217;s my love language. I love receiving them and even more-so I love giving them. So, in celebration of DSD and Isaac&#8217;s birthday I decided to give you all a cookie! It&#8217;s based of this layout I created this week with La&#8217;s Go Go Go.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.box.net\/shared\/4t5e40825svqqv6mgl46\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sweetshoppecommunity.com\/gallery\/data\/516\/Isaac-3-600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.box.net\/shared\/4t5e40825svqqv6mgl46\"><strong>DOWNLOAD HERE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>So, how are we celebrating? Well, he really wants a hot dog for his birthday so we&#8217;re taking to a place that has the best hot dogs. We&#8217;re heading to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.portillos.com\/\">Portillos<\/a> and then I&#8217;m going to make him a &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/allrecipes.com\/recipe\/dirt-cake-ii\/\">dirt cake<\/a>&#8221; and put that in the back of his toy dump truck and will use pretzels for sticks instead of gummy worms&#8230; We&#8217;ve already given him his gift from us&#8230; We got him a balance bike and he LOVES it! We totally couldn&#8217;t keep it a secret from him so he got it early LOL. He even sleeps with the little wrench that came in the box for putting it together! He is already becoming a pro at balancing and I&#8217;m thinking next year we&#8217;ll have to actually get a bicycle&#8230; maybe even for Christmas LOL.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetshoppecommunity.com\/gallery\/showphoto.php?photo=204122&amp;title=coooool-rider&amp;cat=500\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sweetshoppecommunity.com\/gallery\/data\/516\/cooool-rider600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I hope you&#8217;re having a wonderful DSD weekend&#8230; I can&#8217;t wait to see all the lovely layouts you all create with all the yummy new goodies!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Heather here, wondering how you&#8217;ve been enjoying the DSD weekend&#8230; I must admit I was a little overwhelmed with all the amazing new goodies this week, I wanted to scrap with everything.
