This is a moth. We thought it was cool how it looked like a cross on the back of it.

I am drawing early this week because of Friday being a holiday. We will be busy and I figured early is better than late.

A Day at the Park

Saturday we went to a new park. It is called River Heritage park. There is a play ground, pavilion, and a water feature to play in. We played in the water fountain. It was a lot more fun than it looked. It was hot and the water was the perfect way to cool off.

It has been a day…

Man why are Mondays so unpleasant? Andrew didn’t fall asleep until 2am. We watched quite a bit of HGTV. This seems to be the norm. Atleast I got to watch Design Star at 12am. I usually miss it Sunday evening. He slept okay after that. Got up every 2 1/2 hours. Which is good for him. Saturday evening he was up every 1 to 1 1/2 hours. That extra hour makes the world of a difference.

Joshua is showing his butt today. He doesn’t want to listen. So he got sent to his room. Then he ended up getting grounded for throwing things and screaming at me. He came out to go to the bathroom. A few minutes later he comes out and tells me that the toilet is messed up. He unrolled the roll of toilet paper into the bowl and tried to flush it. Thanks Josh. Now I have an over flowing toilet. It took almost every towel in the house to dry up the floor. Thank God he didn’t go #2. Ugh.

So what else, may I ask is going to happen today?

Here are three blocks I have managed to make in the last two days. They are for swaps.

Another picture..

dsc03629copy.JPG

Doesn’t he look happy? LOL. Today we went to the park. We met a lady that is a photographer there. She took pictures of the kids. It was so much fun. She has a little girl a month older than Andrew. I’m not sure they knew what to think of each other. It was the first baby he has seen since he left the hospital. It was cute watching them check each other out.

Yesterday I bought some blue fabric for the sashing of the T-shirt quilt I am working on.  Hopefully I can get the sashing on that tomorrow.

Another Finish

dsc03645copy.JPG

Here is my latest finish. I received it in the mail today from my wonderful mother in-law. She long arm quilts.  They were her right after Andrew was born. I sent it home with her. This is the second quilt I have actually made for myself. It is just a little small for my queen size bed but it will be great to cuddle under. LOL. The nine patches are from swaps from 2 online quilting groups that I belong to.

Andrew is 2 months old today. He is getting so big. He loves to sit up and check life out around him. He is starting to droll and chew on his fist. He is a cutie.
