New Toy

I took advantage of my tax refund yesterday and came home with this...


Hello lover.
I am sitting on the couch as I write this, the girls happily playing with some of the new things acquired at the recent birthday party. My floor is covered in little plastic fishes, fake food, and a cash register. Oh, and dust. We'll have to look past the dust.
I was planning on taking the kiddos to a local fave, The Snake Farm, but last night's cold front is making it pretty windy outside so there may be a change of plans. There's also this. I know big sis would dig the dinosaur and rock exhibits, but I'm not so sure the little one would enjoy it seeing as she wouldn't be allowed to touch or drool on anything! *sigh* We'll see what the day brings...
I've been sewing a lot lately, working on baby things to put in the etsy shop, and I hope to get some posted sometime soon. I've also been spending far too much time browsing blogs of quilters and wanting to pick up another new hobby. I can hear my dh groaning now. But have you seen some of the cool handiwork out there?? Amazing! Here's one of my fave new reads: Simplify by Camille Roskelley. She is incredible.
Okay - time for mama to get off the new laptop and tend to my little chickies. They're starting to destroy things... More later!

Four

Tomorrow my baby girl will turn the big 4.

Eeesh. That sounds so grown up!

Stay tuned for a Letter to my Daughter, my first on this blog. The others still remain in the archives of my first blog, knittingirl, which has been a little - um - neglected since lollipop kids came around.

I still can't believe how quickly she turned from a baby into a little girl.

Wow. I have to go get the tissues ready...
