Half a year. Oh I love this girl. Looks much like last month. But oh how things have changed! The biggest thing is the moving. She’s moving! I was going to say scooting all over and rocking back and forth and trying to crawl. But I can’t. Because today, at 6 months and 1 day, …

Car Party for a four year old (not “Cars”)
So Tuesday wanted a car party. A car party? Well she originally said she wanted her friends to bring over their tricycles and bikes, but I explained that would be hard to do in the winter. So we settled on smaller modes of transport, little cars! I didn’t really plan much until the week before …

And here’s to four
Oh my sweet “baby girl” is four! I can’t quite believe it! She requested a green shirt with a green four, so of course mama had to deliver. I traced a hand drawn one of fabric so it was more like the “4” she is learning. A tiny bit of interfacing on the back of …
What can I say?

Family Love
Like many of you all I want to do these days is cuddle my girls. Never have I appreciated their funny faces, Tuesday’s silly sayings, and Bennet’s middle of the night wakings as much as I do now. I can’t stop thinking about the school shooting in Connecticut. Things like this tend to stick in …
This Moment
Joining in on Amanda’s this moment project. A moment from the last week. A slice of life.
Etsy and new quilts
What a fun December we’ve had so far, it’s gone too quickly. I’ll be back with some of the projects and activities we’ve been working on, but I wanted to give you a heads up that I finally listed some quilts up on Etsy. I had to wait for daylight + no rain + no …
We’re so crafty
Sciarrino and I survived our first craft show experience! It was such a good learning experience for us. And I’m so thankful for all of you wonderful people who stopped by! It certainly made the long show (3 days!) go quickly. We had a couple versions of the booth as we moved things around and …
