Yesterday was Cedi’s first day of school.  I definitely think it was hardest on Mama, Papa, and Capri more than it was on Cedi.    Here she is in her gorgeous dress from TheMeasure waiting for the bus to pick her up! I had to take side shots of how HUGE her backpack looks on her!  […]

During all the fabulous drama of last week I was in the middle of a custom order request.  One of the best selling items in my etsy shop are my matryoshka doll ornaments.  This particular customer requested a little Matryoshka Doll for a baby with a matching t-shirt for big sister.  It was a really […]

Something terrible happened to me last week.  It’s still hard for me to even think about.  I received the most horrible feedback about a quilt from a customer that I could ever imagine.  I’m sure some are wondering why I would be blogging about this publicly, but the thing is, the feedback is already public, […]

My beautiful little Persimoni was 4 months old this past Sunday!  I can’t believe how quickly she’s growing up! At the doctor last week she weighed in at 15 lbs 2 oz (Approximately 1 lb ahead of Capri and 2 lbs ahead of Cedi – just like previously) and was 25-inches long (1/2” longer than […]

In my ideal world this post would be full of live links and great photo’s of examples of what people will be bringing for the Craft-Apple-Ar…but my world is far from ideal right now and I at least want to get you all somewhat excited about all the fun goods and food that you’ll find […]

  Made Locally Onesie from Recreative Crafts I’m sure you all know by now I love buying handmade…especially for my girls.  Here’s an adorable little onesie I purchased at theGlitterWorkshop for Pip but luckily for you the creator also sells on Etsy!

One of the goals this apple season is to keep Pip happy and content while we get things done.  One of her favorite things to do is sit in her bumbo as she goes round and round on the sorting machine… awww…isn’t she cute!?

Thanks to GwydionsGarden for featuring my Chalk Board Miniature Art Hoop in her adorable back to school treasury!  It made it to etsy’s front page yesterday – always a good day when that happens!
