The pinwheel quilt is coming along...it's so fun making the squares! Very repetitive and calming. It's nice to sit down when I have 20 minutes and make a few squares. (And for hours while she's napping, let's be real here.)I still need a lot more though, and I will need some more red and yellow fabrics, I don't have a lot of that kind of fabric in … [Read more...]

I will try my hardest to not say it goes so fast---IT GOES SO FAST!I could not hold it … [Read more...]

Sadie got her first taste of swimming today! (er, floating around with mommy's arms wrapped around her in a tight grip is more like it!) She was a little wary at first, plus it was kind of cold in the beginning, but she had so much fun splashing and kicking once she got used to it.All the kiddos went in! What a bunch of cuties. Cassy was taking the … [Read more...]

Girls night out

Last night we partied hard. Boys left around 5 and we went crazy! Well, not really. We still had fun...we went to OD's for dinner, and took up the whole back room. They weren't that busy, I was surprised, but they haven't been doing dinner for awhile, so I guess that's why? We had quite the group! Joanna, Janae, Robyn (My uncle Shawn's cute new … [Read more...]

I feel like I should have a separate craft/sewing blog because of how much I post about that here. (lately) But then again...nope. Too lazy. So this has been my obsession of the past 18 hours. I wanted to make a patch-work type bib late last night, so I went and made one. (and four more this morning/afternoon...I adore nap time) It was AFTER I said … [Read more...]

Am I boring you? By sewing too much? Cause if I am...oh well.
