  • What we’ve been up to

    Re-organizing (it has to get worse before it gets better): Getting Bennet out of the hammock meant moving the crib into our room (since she still wakes up so many times at night): She does sleep in there, and I think she’s finally starting to not miss the hammock so much.

But we sent out four invitations in the shape of cars and we were on our way! I used a basic car shape on my Silhouette, and then welded it…
