Is it love?

The First Scrapbook

These are pics of a scrapbook my SIL made of our wedding day. I had never seen a scrapbook before.  This is absolutely priceless. I love it more than ever!

DIY Stuff

Folding Chair refresher…here:

Hmmm…I have four similarly sad folding chairs in my garage. I wonder?

Play house. How cool is this?

It is a converted attic. Now a game room/playroom. Love it.  As seen on ohdeeoh! This little girl reminds me of Annabelle. Original blog and more here.

Be still my heart

One year and going strong

E’s lovely brown/blue hoodie for BPD. It still fits in all directions.

Watch out, he’s got the camera!

Makeover!

This is BD Saturday night….

And here he is Sunday morning!

He lost 5 lbs and added a year to his age in the transformation.  Better pics to come (provided that the subject stops moving and trying to grab camera).

Powdered Sugar, yummm!

Ignore the ponytail. That was me trying to demonstrate that this boy has HAIR! My payback was the antics in the pantry. I should know better!!!

First School Play

Warning; this is 15+ minutes long.  Syd has two lines and they are fairly close to the beginning of the play.  She’s the apple of my eye!

Enjoy!

1 hr Itty-bitty dress

Today, Syd suggested that her happy-meal bear was *cold*.

“How about a sweater?” I said, thinking she wasn’t listening.

“How about a dress?” she countered. Baa-haa-haa. Oh?!

I snatched up Syd’s idle day-glow-neon-pink yarn (from her knitting Clover Wonder project that is now 24″ long) cast on 25 stitches on size 4 dpn, used Knitting Helps tut for button holes (aka bear arm holes), knit a bunch of rows, used Kfbf for increases at the waist, and then just kept going in the round until I thought it was long enough.  I thought it would be worn on the Stst side, but when Syd discovered she could remove it, she opted for the purl side as it made the itty-bitty bear look like a ballerina.  Really?

Not counting the 3 times I watched the Knitting Help tutorial (interruptions, PEOPLE!) I spent 65 minutes on this little number.

“Just think, now she could even have a top, pants and maybe even gloves.  Mom, I think her ears are cold too”.

This is why I never finish any of my other projects.
