With the holidays officially over, I am now able to take some time to blog and blog stalk. I don't go back to work until Monday so I still have a few days to relax and wake up late :) Such joy! The holidays were pretty busy this year but we had lots of fun and got to hang with family so it was great. I hope you all had a great time!
I was lucky enough to get an iPad from my parents! (thanks mom and dad!) Obviously the first app I wanted to try was the iFont Maker. It is so easy to use! I love it! I've made a few fonts but only one is ready. I still need to tweak the others. I ordered a stylus online which I am hoping will arrive soon and which I am hoping will help me make even prettier fonts! So today, I give to you: Miss Handwriting, which is basically my handwriting.
Simply click on the image to download the font. I give it to you for free because I LOVE free fonts and I'm sure you do too :) I simply ask that you link back to my blog if you do use it. And also, a little comment love would be nice ;) Enjoy!
Also, I am linking up with Farley for the first Currently of the year!
Font from A Cupcake for the Teacher
1. My boyfriend was sweet enough to start a little fire this morning before breakfast. I love the sound it makes and also the smell :) and mostly.... the warmth! It's been pretty cold up here in Canada the last few days, so I'm enjoying the heat!
2. We worked on Sophia/Sofia's baby room over the holidays. I LOVE it! It is not quite finished yet but the walls are painted, the crib and changing table are there, the crib bedding set is in the crib, the curtains, the hamper... we still need to put up frames and wall decalls but mostly, the room is done. It is so adorable and girly! I am really happy with it! And no, we still haven't decided how we are going to spell her name... I am really having a hard time deciding! I keep thinking I will get a sign or I will suddenly fall in love with the ph or the f.... but no! Oh well, we still have 3 months to figure it out :)
3. I bought a bunch of papers to grade over the holidays thinking I would be super productive... but that has not happened yet. I only have 4 days left before we go back and I really want to do all the work I'd planned on doing but.... I think I might procrastinate for another day or two!
4. I am really loving wedge sneakers. Like this pair:
I wish I didn't because I really do NOT need to be spending right now but they look so pretty! And comfortable too! And with all the after Christmas sales I might be able to snag a cute pair for a pretty good price! :)
5. We already bought a stroller... but it's a pretty huge one! It's mostly made for strolling around, not for outings. We need a smaller one that it more compact. I went stroller shopping over the holidays but I was alone. I need to go back with my boyfriend so that he can try them and figure out what we both like! Stroller shopping can be very overwhleming for first time parents! I had absolutely NO idea what to look for and how to tell if a stroller was a good choice or not. I was lucky enough to find a really nice salesperson who gave me the 411 on strollers and I feel quite informed now. Yay!
6. My OLW is quite simple but it is so important: SMILE! Everything is better when you smile and we often forget to do so. And when you smile, it makes others smile too! So in 2013 I will remember to smile, smile and smile... even when times get tough!
Well that's it for me today! I have to go take down my Christmas decorations. Decorating for Christmas is so much fun... taking the stuff down, not so much... but we have to do it! And I'm not a big fan of decorations that stay there forever once the holidays are over!
Until next time,

I agree with you everything is better when you smile!
I also love the wedge sneakers trend.

Good to know that I am not the only teacher who brought home work and completely avoided it!
I also love your free font, thinking I might finally dive into this free fun font craze.

I have an iPad...I need to go look for that app. I downloaded the font. Your handwriting looks really cute!

That font is great. It's so clean and easy to read! And I just saw several pairs of wedge sneakers in Target today! Maybe look there... usually their prices are pretty decent! :)
