16 Days

Hoping to finish this one up after the holidays.

Can You................

Stand on your head?

Dean has been teaching the girls how to do this for months now. Aris has it down to a fine science. Zoe & Sloan not so much. Still scares the heck out of me. I always worry about their little necks. 

17 Days

Ahoy Mateys!!!!

Kinda hard to believe there are only 17 more days until Christmas.

Good thing I started making the gifts early this year.

It feels good to accomplish something from beginning.......

 to end.

(I goofed in the upper right hand corner, opps! I'll be fixing it today)

I think it turned out okay for a cheater quilt. I know what NOT to do next time. Note to self:: Don't cut yourself short on the fabric for the back or you'll be fixing a mistake in the corner again ;)

 This is for my little Oblio. Every little boy should have a pirate blanket.

Where it's At

If you need me I'll be working here. At this table. For the next few days. Weeks, or however long it takes me to finish up two illustrations, a couple blankets and whatever else is on my long list of "Things to do". The point is I have a usable space. The downside is all the crafty junk that was piled on top of my work spaces is now in 3 BIG containers out in the garage. Did I mention I just finished watching all the episodes of hoarders that I have missed. Because of this I felt the need to clean my kitchen, finish some laundry & write a to do list before I go to bed. Not to mention the pile of trash I threw out from our computer desk & I threw away that weird little thing I kept finding on the floor that belonged to Aris car seat but I couldn't figure out how to get it back on. It's finally in the trash. I think I can sleep now. However I will probably have nightmares about piles of rotten food, dead cats & disgusting trash. Hopefully not.

I'll be back tomorrow with a couple pics of the projects that I'm working on.

5 Months

It's like I've blinked & 5 months have flown by. 

5 of the happiest months with this little guy. 

His smile lights up my days. 

& Those cheeks..... 

Seriously, I could nibble on them all day long!

Forgettaboutit mom! 

I think this is one of my favorites. 

 I always know we are done taking pictures when the finger comes out, lol!
