Ava was a little perturbed that Lena was sharing her stroller for this pic, apparently. hehe! I got to hold Lena for a little while at lunch, man she is a cutie pie!
I just love when my girls choose to wear mama-made. It warms the cockles of my heart. What is a cockle? Never mind I don’t wanna know.
This little miss sassy pants turns three today! Here she is, passed out on the chair after an exhausting day of stepping on her sister’s head and getting put on time out.
We got to take a trip down to the Monterey Bay Aquarium with Rory’s family and see all the fun stuff there! The girls always love it. I found out we were there the same day as Sasha Romeo, from Piccoli Piselli, but we missed each other! Darn!
Man. This kid. She’s a trooper. Never fusses and always has a grin for you. Love her soo much.
We also got to hit up the beach and it wasn’t too freezing. (as most NorCal beaches tend to be) The girls always build intense sand villages, this time with amphitheaters, shoe factories, and a football stadium. Sahweet.
Also! woohoo! I was featured in Sew Mag-a sewing magazine in the UK-just clicking over to their site is so inspiring! I am so honored. 😀 It’s in the July issue of Sew which is on sale in the UK starting Friday June 14th. UK readers, go get your copy! And the rest of you, if you want to subscribe, just contact them for more info!
So that’s a little bit of what we’ve been up to lately! I’ve got some more fun stuff in the works and a great giveaway planned for Friday!
Love the dresser!`
Where in Nor Cal are you? I’m always pleasantly surprised when a favorite blogger is closer than I think. We just moved to the SF peninsula, and I’ve been wanting to make my way down to Monterey Bay…
A cockle is a sea thing, a small edible clam. You can buy them here in the local market or supermarket, cockles and mussels. Only in the UK, right? 😛
Congratulations on the article! Looks like you’ve had you hands full lately…in a fun sort of way. Can’t wait to see what else you’ve been working on. It’s bound to be adorable !
Mail it to me and I can machine quilt it for you!
Love the Monterey bay aquarium. I love the dresser and the rug – great combo of colors.
Newsies 🙂
Congrats on being featured, Jess! You’re truly party planner! Sometimes I wonder how did you manage your time to do all crafty things with 3 lil girls! 🙂
Congrats on the feature Jess! And you crack me up–regarding your daughter passed out in the chair. That is one reason I check in every day–love your personality (ps. I sew, but not a darned piece of clothing! When I am a grandma for my grandkids…)
Those dahlias on your wall are swoon worthy!
XOXO/Lena @ RootandBlossom
Newsies!
Love the dresser, love that you all went fabric shopping (what a great group!), love the magazine feature! 🙂
Oh my gosh just realized you were in norcal. I am in the east bay, would love to know what the name of the fabric shop you were at in Berkeley wss!
What!? I was thinking “Space Balls” all the way! No?
Anyways, so fun meeting you and your little. Congrats on the magazine feature. SO AWESOME!!
What a super write up…but then again you could publish an entire magazine with all your lovely work.
I saw that jellyfish picture and it looked very familiar! I have almost the same pic from the same aquarium. lol. I love jellyfish. Great pictures-looks like a fun time!
