First days of Day Care

Tonight I learned that I can feed my baby and make my daughter dinner at the same time!

So yesterday was Jaiden's first day and it seemed to go well. Today was Jaiden and Ethan went together and Odessa seemed happy as a clam to have my screaming, but adorable little man with her.

We came home and I fed Ethan while I made dinner for Jaiden. Then off to the baths for them both and story time and kisses.

My hubby brought me ice cream for dinner so that was very nice :) Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday. I gave up on soccer so Saturday is free, free, free! I will ignore the house as much as possible.

Back to work

Bibs are the bomb! Don't tell my mother I said that though! I never used them with Jaiden and have finally found out how great they are.

I am back to work and Ethan is growing so fast. Today I did the laundry, cleaned some gutters - which was not fun with my fear of heights, played with Ethan and Jaiden, worked in the yard some and made a gourmet dinner of eggs, applesauce and toast!

Phew, now I am watching a cheesy movie and writing these few sentences.

There, that is the last few weeks in a nutshell!

Step by step


Ok, I know normal people would only post the final picture. But since you never know when I might turn the sewing machine on again, I am not normal and will share each step.


The top part is all done and I am ready to put this thing together and quilt it. Now it will be interesting to see how long that takes to get me motivated enough to finish!


I love spending time with my sister (missed you mom!) outside sewing the day away. Well sewing in between feedings, tantrums, meltdowns and throwups at least.

I did it again


I did it again! I actually used the sewing machine. Ethan laid on his new play mat and listened to classical music (which I personally can not stand) and I sewed my blocks together!
He then slept all night until 4 am. That boy is getting good.
Today I might try to venture out for Backing and Batting for my new wallhanging, but that might be too much effort and I will wait for another day.
