Wow, thank you so much for the quilt love! Something tells me I wouldn't get the same response for a black and orange quilt, but I won't take that personally 🙂 I'm sewing up something else now, but it's for a moving human being and it turns out that is much MUCH harder for me, …

Elimination Communication
I read a bunch of blogs. Probably way to many (I’m working on cutting down my list to favorites right now!). One I read is called Ohdeedoh, an out post of Apartment Therapy. I was looking on there last spring and read a comment from a reader that said in Europe where she is from …
When sleep won’t come…
photo from yesterday’s nap taken on iPhone I just got done putting Tuesday to sleep. It took me three hours. Bj is working late so I got to hear her sing out, “bobbobbobbobbobbob bobbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb bob bob?” This is Tuesday for, “Where are you Bob bob?” I knew she was tired like four hours ago, did …
Design Wall – mini
I have been sewing and generally playing with fabric downstairs. It's great fun until Tuesday decides to mix up my design to suit her tastes! I took an extra piece of foam core board and some flannel I had and whipped up this: Tuesday squeals and runs over to it when she gets downstairs. …
Flippin
I'm sure there is some clever title that is just out of my reach with this one, maybe "straight flippin' yo"? Tuesday has a few new skills. One is carting things all over the house and redistributing them. I find it quite funny to discover old receipts in mixing bowls and clean socks in between …

Doing
Playing games at parties Seeing friends Swinging with friends Learning to get a bit messy from friends Showing off teeth Exploring Carrying around a point and shoot I have no idea how to use, which necessitated major editing and black and white conversion.
Well Tuesday, that’s snow…
Bj and I decided a quick day trip up to the mountain would be fun… We did not decide to stay up super late, get up again in a couple of hours and stay up for over THREE hours in the middle of the night however (that was Miss Sparkle Pants’ idea), so our tiredness …
Exploring
Tuesday didn’t want to go to sleep early today, she didn’t want to go to sleep late either… she wanted to go to sleep much, MUCH later. So I cranked up the ISO and snapped a few pictures of my little explorer. Love those very slight curls in the back. Oh I didn’t know that …
A walk in the park
My toddler oh how I love her.
