I spent part of my weekend with 10 lovely ladies….most from the midwest, but Colorado, South Carolina & Canada were represented this time too! It still blows my mind that three of the ladies made such a huge trek. The weather wasn’t blazing hot like it had been for the summer SnapShops, so that was…

My chubby came when I was married for 5 years. Doctors said the same to me 
I prayed prayed, cried, and God gave her to me.
Congratulations Beth !!!
I needed to read that tonight! Congrats! (To you and your friends!)
Yes, that is a true story. They really were taking turns sticking their fingers in the box fan to stop it. I have wanted one of these since I first saw them. Oh the ideas swirling around in my head for ways to use it. I would like to predict that these will be the…

Mine would probably say ZZZZZZzzzzzz about right now…I don’t think I got enough sleep!
(took me a minute on the before & after-hilarious! or should I say hilarous)
Must have more sleep! Says the mom of a 3 & 2 year old!
“I wish I had one of those for the Halloween Party photo booth I’m doing.” :- )
“No one better be sick today.”
roflol! This is great!
oh how much fun one of these bubble chalkboards would be with my nieces & nephew.
“how long till i can go back to bed?”
“Bring me caffeine…..STAT!”
Haha, that is hilarious. I had to look at it twice to find out the difference. Very cute, I hope I win, I would love that in my photo-shoots!
what a great giveaway! I was going to make one soon, so this would be pretty handy
mine would have a countdown til next weekend. This one went by way too quick!
great! i love you pictures!!
“why did it take me 5 minutes to spot the difference between the before and after pics ”
“Is it time for lunch yet?”
Would be mine right this moment! 45 mins to go…..
“Need coffee STAT”
I was just thinking I’d like one of those yesterday. We were taking photos of my son for birthday party invitations, and I was thinking how perfect it would be for him to hold one saying, “You’re invited…”!
i luuuuv you, baby.
too cute!!!
mine would say “is it bedtime yet?”.
Oh man, I commented before I saw the giveaway. Mine would probably say “what are you eating?!” because I have a couple little ones that eat EVERYTHING!
I’d post a picture of my tired self with this line: “Too much Fall TV.”
I’m tired. Got to go to bed earlier.
I would write “Need. More. Sleep.” For sure!
“We’re late for school…again!”
who’s bringing the starbucks?
LOL! Too funy!
Mine would say, “Mom’s out for the day, leave a message after the…”
hehe!

Did they do it??? seriously???? oh my God! “it’s friday afternoon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“it’s 5:00 somewhere”
mine would say “is it friday yet?”!
What’s for dinner? (I hate that question.)
“i can’t believe these crazies are mine”
So cute.
Boo homework. Hooray sleep!
Happy Monday!
Those are awesome – mine would say-
“Should have gone to bed before 1 = Coffee”
“it’s a pajama day!”
“rise and shine and give God the glory!”
“I need a nap.”
More coffee please!!!!!!!!
“Are you ready for a nap yet because I am!”
“When will this baby make his appearance?” due in a week!!!
“Do I have to do the dishes?”
Pick Me! Pick Me! and I would have an arrow pointing to my face 
It’s Fall!!! and i NEED a pumpkin spice lattte! I LOVE the thought bubble~
I would have an arrow pointed at me saying “she should be sleeping”
“its finally fall!! pumpkin spice latte please” love the thought bubble~
“seriously” (my comment on many situations!)
Oh, I am sad to learn that my idea for chalkboard Christmas cards was not original. I’m happy to learn that I’m cool w/o even knowing it And that I’m not the only person who can’t spell. Anyway, I’d write, “Yep, it’s Monday again.”
“Must. Get. More. Coffee. {And Ellie off of the toybox.}” And I’m with you – Christmas cards this year… Brillant! 
{I love PS and spell check too.}
“Seriously, baby boy? You subsist on 20 minute naps?”
REMEMBER TO BUY EGGS AND MILK
Where did my weekend go?!
i should probably start looking at this pile of paperwork on my desk…
Mine would say… “Why can’t you all sleep in?” It seems the sleep theme is a biggy today!
MIne would say “Why can’t you all sleep in- just one time?” The sleep theme seems popular today!
“Who wants to do the dishes?” hehee. Gosh i love your blog!
Hmm, what would I write? “Need coffee”. Have a brilliant day…those boys are so sweet. Did you set up the background in your house or is that a wall or curtain? I was taking some pictures for a friend and I wanted a fun background but I didn’t have enough fabric to make one…
“Meet me in the Pumpkin Patch”
Mine would say, “Another day, another mess”
i have no idea what ours would say…..
probably something from the office.
This is hilarious!! my sister is using these for her spring wedding, so I would love to give it to her. my thought bubble would say, “roots grow deep when the winds are strong”
I need to brush my teeth.
I’ve seen these all over! so clever! mine would be pointed at my 18mo and say ‘i’m a monster’. quoted from a 4 year old from over the weekend! thanks for the giveaway!
“It’s 6 a.m. and it’s dark outside?”
“i miss summer”
Ahhh i love these… and yes, I shall have to have one for the photo business!
As for what mine would say right now: Coffee…please?
Love, love, LOVE this idea! This would be so great to have for our family pictures soon. Fingers crossed!
*Never commented before, but am addicted to your blog and all of your creative ideas.
Adorable! Mine would say “Monday – UGH.”
I need a nap!
“Rise and Shine”!!! (funny how this saying used to annoy me as a child when my dad would wake us for school but it’s now a favorite!) (oh…my kids are annoyed by it too!)
Mine would say, “One more day until wammy’s house!!!!”
“One round of puking doesn’t automatically mean an entire day of puking, right?”
I would write a great many things on it, but I would like to use mine in a photo shoot for my sidebar headers on my blog…with pictures of me holding it…I think that’d be fun! =) Thanks for the chance!
“5 minutes of peace please..just 5″
“Time to dance!”
We’ve noticed a definite lack in dancing these days.
“come Lord Jesus come”
Pick me!!!
“Please tell me you are kidding…”
I love it!
“Who made coffee?”
“hahahaha!” I love that they were willing to take the chance that you may have been telling the truth and that it may ACTUALLY cut their fingers off. Funny, risky, boys!
“Monday. It’s always Monday.”
It would say “I wanna go back to bed!”
Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts??
That is fun! This morning mine would say “Bring on the coffee!”
So funny! I told my kids the same ‘lie’…wonder when they will test the theory?! My bubble would say, “Find your joy!”
this is seriously brilliant (spelled correctly). i swear, that our brains are like 1 in the same…rachel was one of the first people i contacted for my fundraiser—i knew the bundle NEEDED a thought chalkboard bubble!
can we be best friends, please? i mean, i know we live far from each other, but the least we could be is internet best friends. ha
that’s what i would write…”be my IBF–internet best friend”.
Lovely weather!
hahaha! that is huullarious! ya’ll are cute! I’d say “I can do it!” (starting my weight loss plan!)
Lovely%20weather!
I would write “Is it really only 55 degrees this morning?!”
hahaha! Ya’ll are cute! and i’d say “I can do it!” (yes, the weight loss plan is starting!)
Life is so much fun to live!
Mine would say in the great words of Homer Simpson, “DOH”… Love the picture story!! It is fantastic!!! Great giveaway!! Love Rachel!!!
mine would say “its bed time for me.. gnight world!”
love that i could see the remnants of party of four.. glad yall are enjoying your new thought bubble. and it def took a few sec to notice the brilliant ‘chalk’o..
i want to use one of these in a save the date/engagement announcement.. im sure its been done alot recently but i just loved the idea too much. Happy Monday!!
a whining 4 year old. a spastic 18 mo old. laundry piled up. dishes piled up. husband’s pager going off WHILE he’s on the phone with the hospital. my dress is dishevled. i have one knee high on and one boot on – the other foot, naked. my hair a mess. half my make up is on. and my chalk board would say “mama needs a vacation…”
xoxo
me
“Is it Friday yet?!”
I LOVE this post!!!!
My board would say: “rain, rain go away!” Tired of the rain already.. the temp is still warm & I want to enjoy what’s left of summer outside!
“Clean clothes are overrated.” (It’s laundry day in our house, and I’m sooooo not up to it.)
It’s a BOY!
I would write “i’m asleep !!!”
Which way to the beach??
Love your blog. )
“I love mornings and good coffee” Awesome giveaway!
YAY! Love these!!!!
Which way to the beach??
Love your blog. )
I would write…”Do I have to take her to daycare?” Tomorrow will be my first day back to work after having our daughter… and It is going to be terribly hard!
Love this post, so funny
My board would say “don’t forget to give me a kiss”
If I had a bubble chalkboard right now, I would write: Thank you Jesus!
I would write whatever silly thing my 3 year old daughter says each day. She has quite the imagination and it makes her Dada and I smile.
Late again, gotta stop reading this blog.
I can’t believe its Monday and I am back at work already so mine would say: “Where did my weekend go?”
Oh how I love these thought bubble chalkboards! Mine would say…”FALL!!” I’m really excited about the weather!
Love these! Today I would write, “Woot! 10K!” (Run yesterday)
LOVE IT! Mine would say….”Shhhh, Naptime”
“It’s your turn to get the baby.”
“i never thought i would be thankful to see in til 6am.”
“I’d rather be at home cleaning than at work today.”
“calvin, take me away!!!!”
Whose idea was it to get a puppy?
I’m so glad it’s raining!
I hate Mondays!
“We’re Pregnant!” (We just found out two days ago.) I would use it to take a photo and then put it as my Facebook profile photo (when we actually make it FB public…lol)
I need a vacation!
“Zzzzzzz” Because I really need some right now. It would be wishful thinking for sure!
“Achoooo!” would probably bew the most realistic.The fall ragweed is getting me down!
“Rainy Days & Mondays…..go hand in hand”
So many blogs….so little time!
Too cute. Mine would have to be the usual Monday chant: “just keep swimming, just keep swimming”
I would set it up to use it in the photo booth at our wedding…I think I would paint on the beginning of a sentence like “Love is…” or “I love…” so people could fill it in and take awesome pictures with it. This would be so perfect!
Is it nap time?
“…if I were to go really fast, could I make it to Starbucks and back with a pumpkin latte without my children noticing? hmmmm?”
*disclaimer: I, if course, would not leave my children. Although, this is where my superwoman powers should kick in…too bad I don’t have any. But shhh..don’t tell my boys that!
love this post- totally made me laugh out loud!
“Is it too early for a nap?” SO cute, I love them (and your adorable family!)
So, something I would do with the misspelling haha! My board would say “coffee…now please!” If you saw what I look like, it would clarify the phrase even more! haha!
“2 months!!” (the countdown from today until my wedding-where this would be perfect to use in our DIY photo booth!)
I have been coveting these since I saw one on somebody’s blog. Awesome. Right now it would say “mmmm….. coffee”
I think the he did it would be perfect for our house. Perfect photo op for our twin boys….and their big sis.
i need a diet coke!!!
“I am getting married this Saturday!”
Ha, getting a little excited
My chalkboard would say, ” Life size Barbie is my second child”. (My 3 year old WILL NOT put her down!!
“More coffee NOW!”
Mine would say “Help”
Not enough time in the day!
Haha! I think I like the facial expressions just as much as the thoughts My bubble would say “I love fall mornings!”
Love, love, love it!!!
“Coffee is evidence that God loves me!!”
“why does my coffee get cool down faster and faster each day?”
Our family photo session for our christmas cards is coming up soon, this would be fantastic for it!
Haha, that’s hilarious! Reminds me of how I told my little girls not to stick their fingers in the bird’s cage because it bites. Now they do it all the time because they like how it feels.
My thought bubble: “7 am is the new noon.”
ohhh…. too funny!!
I’d write “mama needs a time out” on mine.
COFFEE PLEASE!!!!!
“Seriously…I know I am wearing spit up.” – I seem to be repeating this line on a daily basis.
These are awesome! Mine would say “Vacation, please!”
How the heck would I choose what it would say? I’ve been wanting to do a photo session with my 3 (teenage) foster neices, so it would probably include some of their favorite sayings like “Whoa!” or “You’re such a creeper”
I’d love to have one with their entire brood (my sis-in-law and bro-in-law, and bio neice and nephew) that says “family.”
Thanks for the chance to win!
So hilarious! At this exact moment, mine would say “Walk away from the cube. Just walk away.” I’m at work and it’s been that kind of morning.
Mine would say “is it naptime yet?” Cute!
“It’s way TOO early to be awake – YAWN”
“is it time for school yet?”
My thought bubble would say, “Is it bed time, yet?”
We’re adjusting to a new household schedule due to my husband’s new work hours. Thank you for the giveaway.
wow, I guess I need to read the entire blog post before I start commenting. Mine would say “where my doilies at?” lol
WOW, are we really about to do this??
Is it nap time yet?
These are great! To quote my 2 year old mine would say “cause why”
“Is it Friday yet?”
I have a great photo of my 2 year old son puckered up and ready for a smooch. My chalkboard would say “kisses 5 cents each”!!
“be nice”. I think I said that the most this morning!
Total happy dance! Mine would probably say “singing in the rain!” – I can just see the pic in my head with a bright umbrella – it is raining for the first time in weeks, i am so thrilled.
“I love fall!!”
Only 1 1/2 hours until kindergarten pickup! I have A LOT to do yet!!
“Monday…you came too soon…”
Darling, we’re pregnant!
“I’ll only let them watch cartoons for a little while…”
Bahah! I just had a flashback of me (age 5-6) telling my little brothers, “It doesn’t hurt, just try it!” I was too wimpy to try it myself so they did. I ran off and then 5 minutes later I hear, “ANDREW! How are your fingers all bloody?” Eeek. It wasn’t as terrible as it sounds, but more like a bunch of little paper cuts. Too, too funny!
-Also, LOVE Rachel and RVA stuff! Those chalkboards are brilliant!
♥ Ashley C.
the sad thing for me is that i probably wouldn’t have noticed that i spelled brilliant wrong!
i’ve been dying for one of those cute bubble signs…i’m thinking the christmas card idea would be cute…especially since I don’t have kids, just dogs. I’m thinking my dogs need to be saying “Merry Christmas!”
Seriously, eHarmony? Are you kidding?
just keep swimming…
Mine would say “I miss you weekend.”
I would give it to my budding photographer 13 year old for her upcoming birthday. She would probably write, “Jeeez mom, so embarassing!”
“i wish that water pipe would burst again so i could stay home and cuddle with my babies”
–great idea–especially for my bother’s wedding photo booth…and i’ve already crossed off a few xmas gifts! THX
“hooray” while doing a happy dance because it would mean i had that chalkboard in my hands!
“I hate Mondays”
“Where’s the beach”?
love it! H
Mine would definitely say, “Too sick to really communicate, talk to my bubble.”
Didn’t I just clean that????
Mine would probably say “My Hope is the Peace Child.”
Then, I would take a picture of me smiling and holding it.
I just got done re-reading Don Richardson’s book “Peace Child” about the Richardson family’s ministry to a cannibalistic tribe who adored treachery and deceit. If you haven’t read it, I highly recommend it!
Love it! My chalkboard would say, “Hooray for weather that’s not in the 90s!”.
Hello Fall! Now where is my scarf?
“coffee…..STRONG coffee!”
too funny! love it.
I am sewing curtains for a deer blind?!??
Gah! Flew home from Snap Shot (up at 4am to make 6:20 flight) and then had company. Now back at work in the NICU and it’s BUSY today! I want to go back to your house and take more pictures…much more fun than my day today. My thought bubble at the moment: “Please stop paging me.”
AHHH! I LOVE this! It would be perfect for the photo club at my school-what a great way to promote reading and writing.
I would probably do something fun with it at my son’s 3rd birthday party. It’s pirate themed so there will be a lot of “Arrgs”!
LOL … at your spelling mistake! I would take a picture of my 3 year old this morning with “Naturally Curly Hair Rocks”. She looks like Medusa!
“Is your father home yet?”
I need a vacation!
What’s for LUNCH!
“Go away snot.”
“Mommy’s taking a break” ha! I love this post, so cute!
I need a nap!
Wow! I have never seen one of these before and now I just have to have one!!
“Sweet baby, go to sleep!”
My thought bubble would say…. allergies, take a hike!
Go ask dad
I need more sleep!
“Baby sleeping…What to craft?”
I love these things!!!! I just realized that I need to buy one! I’m going to be setting up a photo booth at an upcoming halloween party for some extra fun, and this chalk board is a MUST HAVE! Hope I win!
hmm mine would say I hate mondays!! Just getting back in the office from vacation yuck!!
“Because I said so”
my kids did the same thing with the box fan- i told them it would cut their fingers off and they put my threat to the test…
ooh I think mine would say I’m with stupid!!
“I love sunny, Monday mornings in the fall.”
Love it! Mine would say “how do I make the whining stop?!?!”
My bubble would say, “Please don’t poop in your pants again…”
(We’re potty training…it’s not going well)!
I’d put a verse or quote to help me keep my head on straight. You know, so I’m not a jerk to my family!
Ohhh I’m on board! I think we’d try it for our Christmas cards!!
Mine would say “What? ::blink::blink:: Brillant actually has TWO i-s?”
thanks for a chance. those are fun!
I would have one of my son saying “I’m 4.” For his announcements.
Ha, my thought would say “Is there something in my teeth?” because somehow, there ALWAYS is!
What a fun giveaway!
LOVE those chalkboards!! I would write “when does daddy get home i need a break!”
Yum!
LOVE those chalkboards!! I would write: when does daddy get home i need a break!
“Is it Friday yet?!”
I’M the boss!
Mine would say “Take a chill pill” to my 3 year old boy. Is it possible to be OCD at such a young age?
Mmmm…donuts.
“It wasnt me” coming from my daughters. That all I hear, all day long.
Ashley, your boys are so funny! Mine would say “Dear Fall, I love you!”
Unoriginal….but…is it Friday yet?
I love the post! The boys are so much bigger already!
Unoriginal, but..is it Friday yet? It’s where I’m at today.
I love the post, Ashley…the boys are already so much bigger!
I love this! My chalkboard would read, “I love you today.” I asked Rooke what his would say: “Can you make me a new potty chart?” Awesome.
Ugh. I’m a double-poster! I got an error the first time – I swear! Sorry ’bout that!
“Monday again…here we go!”
Seems like everyone I know is finding out they are pregnant so mine would say, “Must be something in the water.”
If I had a chalk bubble right now I would write on it: “I Hate Mondays” LOL I am a stay at home mom and they still get me every week!
Hahaha!! Love it! Thanks for the laugh this morning
Mine would say “good morning, sunshine!”
I’d write: “Where did the weekend go?”
I would write “Hi, Mommy!” and hold it up to baby in belly.
Is it Friday yet?
Love the pics! Mine would say “you cannot go outside in your underwear” because I’m tired of saying it all week long. really.
… i wish i was as clever as u …
great idea!
…%20i%20wish%20i%20was%20as%20clever%20as%20u%20…
great%20idea!
I would take my daughter’s picture holding it with the caption “I’m back!” and then take our picture holding it with the caption “SHE’S BACK!” for this year’s Christmas card. What a great idea…thanks Ashley!
PS…love what you did with it…those pictures are so cute…thanks for the free smile!
i wish he’d go to sleep
How about the punchline to this joke: HOW did the chicken cross the road?
In a grocery sack, of course!
HaHaHaHaHa…I crack myself up!
Have a great week, Ashley!
I LOVE this!!! Right now, I would write, “The 60 degree weather is AMAZING in Houston today! Please stay!”
Oh how I love this! If I had a thought bubble I would write on it “Oh Laundry! How I <3"
You’re adorable!
My chalkboard might be for my husband:
“I don’t know WHERE you left your fake tooth!”
Seriously.

Monday, coffee now. Need I say more??
I love the before and after! That is awesome.
My kids aren’t adjusting their voices to being stuck inside the house when the weather’s lousy. My bubble would say “Shh!”. That’s the word of the week.
i love this idea!
How CUTE!! Today, I would write: “I need a vacation”. I would love to have one to include in our christmas pictures!!
love this! mine would say “let’s do this” based on the number of things on my to do list this fine monday morning.
“i wonder how long it would take the kids to destroy that?”
Please Help: Sleep Needed
Mine would be a folding photo card and on the front it would say “We Moved!” and have myself & my husband in front of our new house and details with our new address on the inside
Mine would say, “I’m Pregnant!!!!”
Mine would say: “Did you really just put your father’s tie in the toilet?”.
To which my 1.5 yo daughter’s would reply: “Yes!”.
Don’t read blogs and parent.
I wish I knew how to use my photoshop cs5!
Too Funny! I would put “I don’t like Mondays!”
I LOVE THIS! It would be PERFECT on the end of my brand new scrapbook desk! Perfect place for me to keep track of the projects that I need to start and finish…along with supplies that I need!!!!! I HOPE I WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!
“I need coffee!” Such a cool prop.
“huh?”
I would write “I love you” and send a picture to my newphew in GA!
I have been dreaming about getting one of these! If I don’t win, I think I am going to make one. Wish me luck!
That is SO neat! Mine would definitely say “I’m going to Disney World in 113 days!”
Housecleaner needed!
ahhh these are sooo cute!!!!! i would write, “i’m hungry!”
my thought bubble would say ” does starbucks deliver??”
I would save it for when my husband is on a business trip, and I’d have my girls holding it saying “we love you daddy.” Then we could send him the picture on email. I’m sure it would make his day!
“UGH!!!!!” or “SIGH”
Cute! Mine would say “What’s for dinner?!”
craft time!
Mine would say
I love you
Who are these kids and why are they calling me mom?
“What was he thinking.”
Thanks this is a fantastic idea!
I’m hungry.
the board would say “these are the best days of my life” holding with my 2 year old and 3 month old.
<—-I love this Farmer
“Nothing is safe anymore!” next to a pic of my squirmy rolly-polly 6 month old who wiggles her way to anything she can put in her mouth.
“He who laughs last didn’t get it.”
Mine would say “Really, there is football on Monday?”
Mine would say, “This job is for the birds”
“is it bedtime yet?!?!”
Just eat and be quiet!
i’m sorry… i thought i just heard elmo offer me free babysitting.
I would write what is on our (boring) whiteboard right now. “PLAY NICE WITH OTHERS!”

Mine would say “Please don’t leave me!” My husband is leaving for a 2 week business trip on Thursday and I’m not too happy about being left behind 
Tate, Please pee in the potty not your underwear! (after a week of potty training!)
TOO cute! I’d write “happy” on my thought bubble.
When I get pregnant mine would say “Can’t wait to see my Gram!” (Holding it as if my tummy were talking) and show it to my mom to tell her we are pregnant
“No I’m not on Ashley’s blog again.
I am working! Seriously I am working! Ok, just 5 more minutes!”

“Just another day in a week of crazy.”
Seriously. This week has been ridiculous.

Must. have. coffee. now!
Love that chalkboard! Mine would say…MUST.HAVE.COFFEE! Thanks for the chance to win.
Got Sanity?
I love this! I’ve always wanted one too. I would probably write something silly and put it over the mirror… Thanks for the giveaway!
I would write, “rain!”
“How in the world am I going to parent TWO of these little guys.” I’m expecting Baby #2 any day now, and my spitfire 2 year-old has my hands tied. *Sigh*
oh the photo ops with one of these! fun giveaway …
Mine would say …. “Is that a bug in your mouth?”
i am seriously lacking in creativity today.
Amazing!! Mine would probably say….lovely park weather wonder if my son will notice a target detour first..
I love Fall!!!
How cute! I would write “Just breathe. You’re young.”
“How long has that been there?”
“What’s for dinner?”
ACK, they are out of stock at RVA and I would love to win one. Mine would say, “What in the world did I get myself into?” (we just moved to a new city)
Stop talking!!! Can you tell I am a teacher?
I guess right now mine would say ‘are we there yet?!” but I could have a gazzilion things Id want to say! This would be sooo much fun with my boys and babby girl! Awesome giveaway!
Mine would say: You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you! Isaiah 26:3.
Where’s my Cherry Coke?
I would use it for our big extended family photo shoot coming up in a few weeks. I can picture it now…everyone is making goofy/dorky faces and I would hold the bubble with an arrow pointing towards them saying…”I’m not related.” Fun giveaway!
Where’s my Nonfat Pumpkin Spice Latte??
“Is it summer yet?” OR “all kids are artists”-Picasso
Arrow pointing to large pregnant belly “Baby please come out, you are LATE”. And this Mama is impatient.
“Gosh, Man” as quoted by one of my freshman students in an essay no less. Super. I’m going to use it all the time now.
I’m trying my hardest to think about what my teenage daughter says all the time but for the life of me I can’t think of anything. I do think that we could have a lot of fun with one of those.
oooh this would be so much fun!
I cannot wear nor pronounce “jeggings”.
“We don’t say that.”
(quoted frequently at my house by my resident 3 year old word corrector)
Thanks!!
I think i would take a picture of it with my children and it would say “don’t blink”. they grow up sooo fast and mine are only 8 & 10!
rain rain go away..my toddler wants to go out and play!
what to do? what to do?
That is fantastic! Right now I would probably use my Bubble to say “GO TO BED ALREADY!!!!!!”
mine would say “joining us in april: baby #1!”
“Case of the Monday’s!”
mine would say (of my 2yr old)…”people will recognize she dressed herself today, right?” Love your picture story!
we’re out of tissue. **sniff**
Nap…is it my turn for a nap?
That is such a brilant(= idea!! Thanks for the giveaway!
“why didn’t I wait until I was 45 to get married?”
I did not know that it was even possible but I think I’m loving your blog more and more every day… Thanks for sharing your thought, great pics and adorable family!
“I love you!” to my husband.
I love the photos! Mine would say “rain, rain go away.” All this rain is making me lazy today!
I’m ready for winter!
“are we there yet?”
“It’s NOT FUNNY!!!” I’m a klutz and my husband enjoys my mishaps. Luckily, I’m a good sport and unless I hit my head really hard, I can laugh along too.
I’d write, “I want that Lego!” because that’s all I hear from my two boys all day.
And I don’t know if I’m the first to point this out – I’m not going to go through all the comments – but you’re holding the board on the wrong side of your body in all the pictures…
“did that really just happen?”
it seems to be a highly used saying around my house! it’d be great to have it actually showing in a photograph.
Disneyland in 3 days!
“is that yogurt or snot on my pants?” I seem to always find a surprise substance on my pants right about mid-thigh…aka right about where my daughter’s mouth is. Although, i never do notice it until i’m in public sitting next to a stranger. One day i will have clean pants, I hope my girl still gives me as many hugs then as she does now.
“How did he get poo THERE?”
Our 5 month old has been pulling some creative poos recently. I’ll just end it there.
What did you just say?
“Nap needed” Thanks for the chance to win!
The story cracked me up and now, seeing it on chalkboard quotes – maybe even funnier!
this is too cool!
Too cute! I would take one of my daughter saying “I’m a cutie cutie as she seems to greet people that way instead of saying hello lately.
“Calgon, take me away!”
“Thankful for the sunshine” – beautiful fall day today!
“what’s for dinner?”
Need caffeine!
‘I can’t believe I won this!’ … that’s what I’d write!
If I had a thought bubble chalkboard, I would write “I need ice cream!!”
Just discovered your website, and I’m basically head over heels. If I had one of those chalkboards, I would probably have it say, “Good hair days own my life.” Because who doesn’t love a good hair day and kind of want to announce it to the world?
should i nap or make some brownies…
Mine would say, “No, I haven’t had this baby yet, but thanks for reminding me.”
“Hellooo Autumn!”
OMGOSH you made me laugh so hard after I read your blog!!! Thanks for the fabulous funny. Loved it!!!
PS: I had to really look for the mistake in the last picture.lol
I LOVE THIS! HA! mine would say who are these kids?
“where did my ankles go?”
(i’m 7 months pregnant and it’s currently 100+ degrees here in cali!)
gjasfhg;sdgnskdgohjas;kfaieg!!
“Is it 4:00 yet?”
“Is it 4:00 yet?”
i never win these things…
In my thought bubble would be this:
gone crazy… be back soon!
Happy Monday!
Mine would say:
Gone crazy… be back soon!
“Let’s craft not work!” I’m on my break at work I love my job, I just feel like crafting right now!
“Happy Fall Y’all!”
These are too cute!
The weather outside is delightful!
“I am going to be trouble” for the one year old shoot I am doing tonight with a little girl
I love this! I am totally doing this for Christmas cards this year! Mine would say, More TIME Please!
“Give me two minutes”
oh man I’d LOVE one of those!!! And MAN this was funny
ooh pick me! pick me!
I have wanted one of these for sooo long.
You guys are hilarious! I think mine would say Help Wanted today. I’m tired of work already and there is a pile of dishes out there with my name on it. Yay for Mondays!
“i wish i hadnt eaten that half a container of cookie dough…guess the cookie dough wont be making it to the oven!”
“Is it 5 o’clock yet….????” {sigh, it is actually only 3:18}
“Is napping allowed at work?”
Cute chalkboard. And cute hair. I always wondered how you get your hair to look so cute, just enough curl without looking overdone. Anyway, mine would say: “I love naptime”
Mine would say… “Queen of Take Out” because that’s what’s for dinner… haha
Mine would say, “Queen of Take Out!” because that’s what’s for dinner, haha
I think mine would say, “A CHALKBOARD! Hopefully Jack doesn’t wake up and find me drooling over it…”
I seriously love chalkboards. LOVE! But my husband just rolls his eyes and mutters something about me being crazy.
Oooo…ahhh… I WANT one of these!! This week I would write – “I don’t want to go back.”
I would say, “who suggested this?” and it would point to my 5 kids and husband and messy house.
i’m with the others…why the heck did it take me 5min to see the difference?!?! i was about to clean my glasses to see some great contrast difference or something mine would say (on the other end of the spectrum from many other readers…) “Hey Sun! Guess What? Did you miss the memo? ITS AUTUMN NOW!” …*sigh* i hate 110deg heat UGH!
I think it would say: “Who’s in charge?” with an arrow pointing toward me (You know, since I have 4 kiddos that like to enforce the rules for everyone else.) Seriously, I love the board and all the ideas for using it.
“who’s cooking dinner?”
“I need a nap.”
Love it! Right at this exact moment mine would say “shoot, sounds like naptime is over…”
“is it nap time yet?” is what mine would say. with me or my child holding. haven’t decided????
Wish I was pregnant!
“Yup, it’s a Starbucks day”
“Mama needs a few minutes of quiet time!”
“Old dogs can learn new tricks.”
“Where is my pumpkin spice latte?” LOVE the chalkboard fad.
“Mama needs a nap. And a beer.”
They’re always like this!
“I really wish someone would make ME take a nap!”
With a three month old mine would say, “When’s naptime?”
Guess what I’m thinking?
Guess what I’ thinking?
It’s Eruption not Abruption!
(it was a long day at the office and that has been bugging me All.Day.Long!)
“Should I feel guilty for not wanting to wake Liberty up to eat because it’s so quiet right now!”
Mine would say, “Silence is golden. NAP TIME RULES!!!”
I love fall and am ready for some cooler weather
STOP SLAMMING THE DOOR!
“Thanks for this wicked chalkboard Ashley!”
oh, man that was great! LOVE rachel and elsie’s blogs!
i’ve been eyeing that board since rachel came out with them!!
i’ve been trying get people to stop using their flashes on their cameras…so my saying would have to be “stop flashing me”. haha.
“Is it nap time yet?”
oh the fun to be had with one of these babies…
“breathing through your nose is overrated!”
Am I speaking english? As I try to get 16 3 year olds to clean up
“I can’t breathe!” As I’m trying to get back into my pre-pregnancy jeans!
Mine would say, “Thank you, Lord, that I saw that the whoopie cushion was in the diaper bag during church…before the kids did!”
Since I am both starving and exhausted right now. My thought bubble would probably say, “Oh how I wish my hubby could cook dinner without setting something on fire.” “Sigh,” would work too.
fugat thailand!!
I know i should go to sleep but I will just read Ashley Ann’s blog first……
I would write “Yes, I am the one the other bloggers warned you about’
Love this chalkboard! I hope I win hehehe
Dog – PLEASE stop tearing our house apart!
That’s enough iced coffee for one day!
“I’m sorry I asked”… that’s what mine would say!
“Um… I think I’m hungry again…” and take a picture with my one month old daughter
“Wait… it’s too quiet…” Cute shoot, love it!
“Help Me!”
If I had a thought bubble chalkboard right now, I would right “I hope I win!” Thanks for the chance!
A place for my real thoughts since none of my kids can read yet!!
“I Love You”
– to my most wonderful Husband. =)
Not very original, but that’s the first thought that popped into my head.
=)
I’d rather be crafting!
Those are adorable! I’d love to win one…but I’m not lucky, so I may have to just break down and buy one! : )
“I’m Up Here.”
I teach, and I swear that today I could have been doing cartwheels and they still wouldn’t have looked at me.
sunshinesmilesphotography.blogspot.com
I would have to say my one-word quote of the day, “Really????”. Awesome post! Thanks!
can you clean the caveman off the toilet?
mine would say: coffee? please?
its school holidays here and i am in slow motion. nice to not have to do the school run!
Mine would say, “Typical!” Thanks for the opportunity!
Jessica
it would say “love you!”
the little people made me do it
Mine would say. “I promise thunder is not actually a monster trying to hurt you.”
and it would be directed at my dog currently hiding under my couch.
“Things to Do:
Get a Peppermint white mocha…
That is all”
”oh lala!’
Oi – I bought the supplies to make one myself 2 weeks ago and haven’t done it yet! I’m now further inspired to go and cut mine out and in perfect time as I have at least 4 shoots this week.
Mine would say “Who Me?” or “I’m annoyed!”
Je t’iame! Were having a Paris party for my 3 yr old. I was thinking of doing a photo shoot with using though bubbles.
this is fabulous!! i adore it!!!
Mine would say: What’s on sale at Goodwill today?
Here’s what I would write: “My lips are sealed. …But is the spectacular chalkboard speech bubble fair game for blabbing?”
LOVE these!
Mine would say, “How in the world is it already 4pm and I still haven’t brushed my teeth?!” (I have a crazy 4 month old, who will NOT nap.) Fun stuff! Love your blog! xoxox
I have three because this is how my day has been. STOP BITING!! Be nice to your brother! You pooped again??
Oooo fabulous!
Ooooooo, I LOVE Rachel’s blog, and style too! How fun! I could think of a million ways to use this!
Mine would say “pizza???…Yes PLEAsE! “
We Miss You Daddy!…. for my husband who is in Afghanistan.
I want one of these for our Christmas pictures this year! At this second mine would say
“-> This mom needs a vacation”
Mine would say… “YIKES!”
” How many days until winter break?” I’m a full time student who is also teaching full time in a fifth grade classroom. Loads of fun but boy, can they wear me out.
“TIRED”
Love it!
I would put…”Let’s add another hour to the day. Please?”
“All hail King Kong!” That is what mine would say, in honor of my youngest niece, who has the daintiest of nicknames.
“October, please get here in a hurry!”
I love this!! I would hang it by the back door with “Did you say “I love you?”
“when is the weekend getting here?”
“Whose idea was having 3 kids anyway? Oh yeah.”
“It’s only Monday?”
That’s hilarious! I’ve been wanting one of these thought bubbles for some time now. Mine would read, “If you get hurt, you’re in trouble!”
Love those!
you are hilarious ashley!!!!!
Why am doing this? Oh yeah, waiting for my sugar daddy.
I love fall!
Hi Ashley, first time comment-er on your blog and thought that now was a good as time as any to just saw how lovely your photographs are. I absolutely love this though bubble chalkboard. How brilliant. So here is my thought.
“Do I really have to explain why?”
“Sleep Please!”
I have no idea what mine would say…probably something like “it wasn’t me!” – since that’s typically what is said around this house!
“should i check on my beb that just fell asleep behind her door instead of bed? nah… i’ll wait”
I love these! I would use it to write captions for my 6-month-old!
now this is a brilliant idea! love these!
That is hilarious!! Love it!
“Is it Friday yet?”
Too funny!
I’d use the thought bubble for our dogs! I’m always trying to figure out what’s running in their little brains…ha!
I just want to be in bed!
‘let the sun shine’
Rachel and Ashley are my heroes! (A little sucking up never hurts…although it can’t help when we’re playing the random game…) But seriously, I’ve made it through approximately 9 whole months of my 365 project, and I’m pretty sure one of these would up the creativity.
Sure Happy It’s Thursday!
“it’s 5 o’clock somewhere… right?”
Thinking in progress….
It might say…”yes…they belong to me”
“sleep who needs Sleep, sleep is for whimps….”
This post is brilliant. I LOVE it!!!!!
“That’s how we roll!”
“girls just wanna have fun…not study!”
“Calgon, take me away…”
So tired!
… so tired
“Zzzzzzzzz”
“I need one!”. And you would see my tired and desperate face.
right now: “why am i awake so late?” i seriously love these.
and “don’t blog and parent” – so true!
what great comments!! haha! I would put the chalkboard in a wheat field and write “Weed it and Reap” (I saw that on a church advert today, thought it was funny)love your photos!
“umm.. YES please!”
That is too adorable, my son(s) would LOVE scribbling on that thing (: Er.. after mommy had her turn, of course (;
I would write: “Caramel appleas are good, so good.” (While eating a caramel apple of course!)
“Yay, I won!”
There are so many cute ideas I have for one of these, but, to be truthful, right now my bubble would simply say “thankful”.
My bubble would say: How do you do your hair? it’s awesome, I need a tutorial.
“Countdown till my hubby gets home: 3 days”
send coffee
Mine would say “Ouch” … after running my first 1/2 marathon on Sunday. Descending steps… ouch!
Bring me coffee and then we can talk.
“she made me do it” ….always the look on little brother’s face!
“Pumpkin Spice Latte” YUM.
Why do I have to work today?! I’d rather be playing in the sunshine!
sooo great! you guys keep me laughing
I would write our #1 house rule that I am *trying* to get across: “no pushing, bonking, drumming on, or crashing into your baby brother!!!”
Love this thought bubble! Mine would say, “I’d rather be thrifting.”
Friday, Starbucks, with fiance’ = LOVE.
sweet!
23 today.
“I NEED A NAP!!” Your boys are awesome! My sister and I used to throw koosh balls into our ceiling fan and watch them fly out. Great fun!
mine would simply say “smile ”!
I am secretly in head-over-heels love with Glee.
love these!! my 3 girlies…and the one on the way would have fun with these. :]
Mine would say – “before I was a mommy, I thought eye make up was important”
Oh the things that we let go of when we have more important jobs!
Oh, I definitely NEED this! I’ve been trying to come up with a cute Christmas card idea, and an idea just came to me! But I need this to make the card work;)
Mine would say, ” why is Blythe waking up from her nap AN HOUR EARLY???”
(And it took me waaayyyy too long to figure out the difference in the before and after shots!
“DOH” ….it took me a minute to figure out what you changed in the before and after..i am the worlds worst speller..i wouldn’t have ever noticed!
ugghhhhhh!
b/c that’s an groan that this mom of 3 silently cries out.
Mine would be in the hands of my little boy, and it would say, “I got the idea from Dad.”
i’m so sleep deprived i can’t think of a good quote but it’s just so perfect!!!
“DO SOMETHING INTIMIDATING TODAY!” LOVE your post. I was literally laughing out loud. Isn’t it so sad when your kids figure all that stuff out? Then they call you a lier? Ha..Ha..Ha..
If I had a Thought Bubble Chalkboard right now, I’d hold it over my nine-month-old’s head with the thought, “Put down the Thought Bubble Chalkboard and give me the bottle.” I’m pretty sure that’s what he’s thinking.
Mine would say, “happy birthday to my favorite Nicole!”
I am an RA and I would LOVE to have one of those for events with my girls! I think right now it’d have to say… “Control…Know… Love” Because I know that even through the craziness of Senior year, internship, wedding photography, 21 units and a 16 hour a week job, that God is in control, he knows what’s best and he loves me!
OR it’d say “I see the world on Hs shoulders and my easy load” (lyrics of Sara Groves “When the saints” http://www.sweetslyrics.com/532182.Sara%20Groves%20-%20When%20The%20Saints.html) just to keep everything in prospective!
Mine would just say “SERIOUSLY?!?!” I feel like I’m saying this all day long. I walk into my daughter’s room, “seriously?” My son smears banana in his hair, “seriously?” It’s constant! It took me a minute to realize brillant too Haha!
Mine would say, “Buy Chalkboard Thought Bubbles for your wedding reception photobooth – STAT!”
I would love one of these! If I had one, I would use it in pics with my new baby!
This is SOOOO cute! mine would say “REALLY?!?!”
SLOW DOWN LIFE!
My son would be holding it and it would say, “Feed Me!”
___ days ’til Halloween (or Christmas, or a birthday, or…)
Niiice, well done!
Mine’d say “Baby you’re #1″
I love this!! I NEED one.
Mine right now would say, Please stop pulling the dogs tail.
Mine would say…I think I can, I think I can
Oh it would definitely say “Please! I just need an apt I can afford!” NYC prices are outrageous but this is where the work is!
My Thought board would say “HELP!” And my children would be running around me with curly ribbon wrapping me up!
I’d announce that we’re so thrilled to be expecting baby #3! Just found out. What an adorable way to announce wonderful news!
Recirculating airplane air makes me not want to breathe! EEK!
I’d put “Just keep swimming…”
I would write DON’T PICK YOUR NOSE!
Fun!
I would write.
I’M PREGNANT!
I would write something like, “Be safe cowboy.” For my friend who is leaving for Iraq soon.
I hate to copy – but I would love to write the same message as Jenna to tell our family “We’re pregnant!”
Photoshop… nice. Because I just wrote a guest post, used a challkboard, spelled raspberry wrong, didn’t notice, used a the same chalkboard the next day in my own post, spelled raspberry wrong again…
It is going to be my own personal Dan Quayle’s tomatoes, or potatoes.
Photoshop. If only I knew how to unspell my mispells.
“How did my house this dirty? Seriously!” or better yet, “really, we can’t afford a cleaning lady?”
“Is it Friday yet??!”
I need a nap!
“I’m thinking in something very clever to say….”
I loved this post so much that not only did I put it on my own blog (hope that is okay) but I emailed it to a bunch of friends. Love it and I would love this chalkboard!
Mine would say Merry Christmas, but not with a picture of me, but my Boston Terrier. I’d use it as my Christmas card.
I’d put it by our sink FULL of dirty dishes and write “Maybe someone should wash us?”
… maybe that’d provide the necessary motivation?
aaaaaah! what a cool giveaway. first i would write “sorry” and then when that was accepted (which it already has been verbally but seeing it in chalk might not hurt) then I would write “happy fall” and after Oct. 1st, “boo”. Kelly
Is it Friday yet?
How hilarious! love this! If I had one of these right now, I would dress up my kiddos in their halloween costumes and write on it, “will work for candy”
Mine would have to read – ‘who are these children and why are they calling me Mom?”
That thought bubble has to be the cutest thing ever!
I need a nap!
I love this so much! Classic…

lifeologia - Beautiful pictures as always!
It was great to read Christine’s story and she’s so right about listening to one’s body.
After the arrival of my daughter I had health problems mainly with intense fatigue as well and loss of speech, swallowing abilities and facial movement – the doctors kept insisting it was postpartum depression – for almost 2 years. I knew better that there was something else wrong with me. Finally I had more tests done and was diagnosed with a proper diagnoses of a rare muscular disease – it wasn’t great news – but at least I had some answers and a treatment plan. And I finally felt relieved that I knew I was right all along…. Yes, listening to your body is the best thing you can do to yourself – don’t just pop in pain killers or gastrointestinal medications — your body is trying to tell you something.
Christine, you are wonderful and beautiful, I wish you a happy and healthy future – yes, distraction is the best way to get better – that’s why I even started my blog
xoxo

giozi - Iff. I don’t know what to say about your friend. I would like to have her streght. I died in little troubles everyday, little and stupids things that they are only in my mind.

Is difficult to me let me explain, and more in English, I only can say thanks for sharing this testimony, we can met her a her beautiful family.

Jane - Christine, thank you so much for sharing your story and enduring all those cameras! It was a great experience. I’ll send a CD of some of my pics to Ashley to give to you. And Ashley…you’re awesome! Totally worth the trek from Canada. Thanks again!
Gina Sharp - I was shocked to come across this story, as this is the first time I’ve read Ashley’s blog. On August 31, 2010, at the age of 45, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Thank goodness my only child is seventeen, and not so young like Christine’s. I had blood come out of my left nipple on two separate occasions. Each time it was a month apart. It has not happened since, and I think God was telling me that something was wrong. There is no lump, and I had a clean mammogram ten months earlier. I will be having a double masectomy on October 28. I am so happy to see that Christine is doing well, and looks so happy and beautiful. It gives me hope to read a story like Christine’s. God be with you and your family and much health and happiness.
