Baby’s First Portrait

I just wanted to share this because I’m in love with it. My little sister Tesha drew me this while we were visiting family in CT. I love the little dancing, happy fetus! (And apparently it’s a boy!) And I love that Juniper and I are the same size. I love my sister ?

Life is Good

It seems my life has finally started to slow down some. And I’m loving it. I feel like I’m finally get the hang of this whole stay-at-home mom thing too. (I love my Juniper) So now that I have more free time, I’m going to finally get this house in order and hopefully start creating…

Connecticut in the Fall

We spent the last week visiting my family in CT (just me and Juniper, Daddy had to stay home and be Mr. Math Teacher ?) We had so much fun! It has been YEARS since I’ve experienced fall, you know, living in FL and all. We had an impromptu trip to the ER because I…

Announcement! ?

Juniper is going to be a big sister! Yay! Ok, so her shirt is a little big… but at least it’ll fit her until the new baby comes! I cut the letters out of felt and sewed them on with embroidery thread. Then I attempted to embroider “I’m Gonna Be A” .. but it didn’t…

Sweater Frogs

This past week I’ve gone back to working “full time” to help out with a big data import project… Imagine hundreds and hundreds of lines of excel spreadsheet data and LOTS of copying and pasting… Not exactly my idea of a good time. BUT it’s Friday! And I intend to make the most of my…

Recycled Sweater Dolls – Misty

My Recycled Sweater Doll (more like recycled blouse doll actually) Misty, is now available in my new Etsy shop! I decided not to do one big shop update, instead I’ll be listing new items all week.  Save myself a little sanity that way I’ll be linking this post to the I Made It! blog party…
