Hello Fall
Good morning! It’s so very peacefully quiet in the house right now. It’s 6:30 in the morning… my husband has already left for the day and the kids are still sleeping… most of them in their own beds, one of them in ours.

Conquering the Doubt
A few months ago I started crocheting a toy for Abby. She picked out an animal and a color of yarn that she liked… and then I was put to work. Since I had wanted to try my hand at designing a toy of my own, I embraced the project, but knew that it probably

Stomp, Stomp, Stomp!
Over the past few months, I haven’t been able to sew as often as I like, since I now have one child who doesn’t nap and two others who refuse to sleep at the same time.

Hello Summer
This past school year just flew by… maybe it’s because I’ve now got three kids at home… maybe it’s because I’m getting older… who knows!

Surviving the fog
It’s been a rough couple of weeks… oh who am I kidding, it’s been a rough couple of months. The newborn/infant fog still hangs heavily over our home and days like the one we had today only make it worse. Overall, I’m happy to say that Michael is (and has been) a great sleeper. He
Somebody had a birthday…
The past two weeks have just flown by. I tried sitting down to write a few times, but the words would either fail me or come out frustrated and upset… neither of which I could (our would want to) publish. So instead of worrying about my lack of blogging creativity, I sewed, crocheted, cleaned, organized
