Oh how I have loved Tuesday’s curls. They were such a wonderful surprise from two straight haired parents! But had become a source or tears for poor Tuesday. She told me she wanted her hair SHORT. I did not really want her hair that short, and I really thought she didn’t know what she meant. She had been on a big, “I want it down to my vulva” kick. Ha! I know 🙂 But after telling me again that Nana should cut it SHORT when she visited I gave in.
So excited! Lucky girl with her personal traveling hair dresser!
Hey Tuesday, what is Bennet doing while you get your haircut?
“Bennet is sleeping like this!”
(Before)
(After) thank you Nana!
Still a little wave on her cute little head.
She loves it! And this is much easier to deal with since she does not like to put it up. I did have Nana leave it a little long so I could get it up in piggies for dance class.
In the same vein as yesterday’s post… doesn’t this make her look old?!?!

Yesterday Bennet turned one month old!
You don’t have to tell me it’s going to go fast, oh my goodness do I know!
I’m going to attempt to take pictures all year long in this cute sleep sack from Sciarrino (like this). I can’t remember who found this cute idea for me, but I love it! Here was my initial attempt (note baby is crying). Then I got the sleepy picture I posted first. Of course she decided not to sleep so I was able to get some open eye pictures too.
Speaking of her eyes.
They are going to be blue! At least that’s what the eye doctor told me. I went to my check up and took Bennet with me. At one point I had to cuddle her while figuring out my new prescription. The doctor said she had pretty eyes and I said something like, “I can’t wait to see what color they’ll be.” He asked me my husband’s eye color (green) and said, “Oh, they’ll be blue. When they are that blue they stay blue. They might turn a little blue-green.” We’ll see if he’s right. I could have a blond, blue-eyed, straight haired girl on my hands. How funny how different kids can be!
And guess what Bennet you may be one month old but your sister is 43 MONTHS OLD. Holy moly. Sciarrino texted me that fun fact 🙂
Here is something I want to ask. If you have three (or more) children does time speed up with each one? I mean Bennet’s first month definitely seemed to have gone quicker than Tuesday’s! -
I don’t know why this never made it to the blog… at least I don’t think it did. Probably because when I made it up (last summer I think), it went right into use. Here is a little bit of the fabric I used, and I also participated in a vintage sheet swap that helped make up this quilt.
Really, if you’ve never quilted you could still make this quilt. It’s so dead easy. Big blocks, stitch in the ditch, and a nice solid binding. I did take the time to do a hand stitched binding, which gives even a simple quilt a nice finished look.
It’s actually more of a blanket because the batting is flannel instead of actual batting. It makes it so soft and light. Plus easy to fold up and take along. I might do another “quilt” like this with favorite fabrics that I want to see a lot of the pattern. I know I have readers that haven’t quilted at all, but want to. Might I suggest something like this? Give it a try!
