Some watercolors on coffee filters… Homemade Maple Scones. The recipe is from the most recent Edible Green Mountains magazine. I’d never made scones before but had recently had one that I loved so I thought I’d give them a try. They’re delicious! They’re not at all healthy but they are super yummy! These two guys got their [...]

I saved these two dresses for quite a while. They’ve been too short for Estella for over a year but I couldn’t bring myself to give them away just yet… I decided to make them into skirts to get a little more life out of them. I added a simple fold over yoga waist to [...]

I’m not feeling awesome today…I think I’m fighting a cold or something and I’m exhausted. So, in the hopes of getting a few kid free moments to get some housework done I created an elaborate tent in the living room. Though you can’t exactly tell from the picture, they were having lots of fun. I [...]
Estella turned 5 years old on Sunday. I can’t believe it’s been five years since she was born. In a way I feel like I’ve been through ten years in the last five but in another way I feel like my baby couldn’t possibly be five already… We had a chill day at home with [...]
Once again I uploaded pictures and it’s taken me about a week to actually get them up but once again I’m going to go with the whole “better late than never” thing. We did a little milk coloring. It really is very cool and I highly recommend trying it. Look at her face…see? It really [...]
I’ve had these photos on the computer, waiting to be blogged, for days. I have a migraine today and the medication is making me feel terrible so I’m going to keep it quick. Making Valentine’s for her class. Building an airport. Playing with the airplane. A Valentine’s Day freezer paper stencil. The shirt all done [...]

Kyler was a huge help while I laid out the blocks for the Cross Quilt. He tore it down as fast as I could get it up… I’m on my last block and I hope to finish it today while Kyler naps. I like the funkiness of it but I’m frustrated with myself because I [...]
My little girl started school today…crazy times. January isn’t the most convenient time to take a bunch of back to school type pictures outside so this one will have to do for this year. She had fun and is looking forward to tomorrow. I’ fairly sure that most of the excitement about tomorrow is that [...]

A mandatory day at home today. Walter’s car wouldn’t start again this morning so he took mine…unfortunately we may have to think about a new car soon. With all of our own financial stress, the stress of the rental house being empty soon, and the possibility of needing a new car, I’m feeling a little [...]

I’ve been spending my alone time sewing 1/2 inch lines in a stack of fabric. I’m attempting to make this chenille baby blanket. I’ve sewn lines for about two hours and I’d say I’m about half way through. Some friends of ours are due with their first baby in March…actually on Estella’s birthday…so I’m trying [...]
