A certain little monster was high maintenance today, so instead of a real post, this will gave to do. When I decided to do NaBloPoMo, Laura suggested I post a cute baby picture on days when I had nothing else. Today was one of those days! Continue reading

Time well spent
I am not a patient person. I knit because without knitting, I have a hard time sitting still. I sometimes find it hard to relax because I feel I should be doing something. This busy nature of mine can make it hard to spend the necessary time feeding and snuggling a baby. I just try … Continue reading
Turkey
Oops I didn’t post yesterday but this is what I was going to post. We went to the kid’s school for his fall festival. They had this turkey on the wall of what kids are thankful for. Most kids said their family or something significant. My kid, he’s thankful for Cars 2. Continue reading
Ode to my label maker
While I was pregnant, I fit the entire contents of my craft room into a wire shelving unit in the baby’s closet. At the time I just shoved everything in there but I recently took it all out and organized it. It was great to be reminded of the supplies that I have and to … Continue reading
Monday
Mondays tend to be crazy for a lot of people and we’re no exception. School for the kiddo and work for us followed by the kid’s swim lessons makes for a pretty busy day. Add the time change and by the end of today, I was pretty done. So, I don’t feel like I have … Continue reading
WIP: Cam’s Big Guy Quilt

Compost Cookies
This weekend, thanks to Cirilia and that magic of Twitter, we made compost cookies. It was really fun! The basic premise is to make a cookie dough, take a cup and a half of sweet stuff and a cup and a half of salty stuff, mix it in and voila, cookies! For our sweet stuff, … Continue reading
New beginnings
I love new beginnings. For me, the new school year was always a time for new beginnings, even more of a “new year” sort of feeling for me. I remember as a kid being so excited for the new school year and the shopping for new clothes and school supplies made it even more exciting. … Continue reading
Finish Line
This took me forever, why are we not surprised! But, I have the results of my bloggy contest! First off, thank you SO much for your support! We were able to raise $400 for the MS Society. It may not seem like a ton (and I hope to do a better job with it next … Continue reading
