I actually have made lots of quilts in the last year so it was difficult for me to figure out exactly which one to share.  I finally decided on my quilt, ‘Owl Be Yours’ that I created for the ‘Be My Valentine’ Project QUILTING Challenge.   As I’m looking back on these post’s Amy was actually […]

Right after I had Cedi someone was on Oprah that could understand what a baby was saying with its cries.  I actually found that it really worked!  I had to just look these up to remind myself so I had some help with Pip: The basics: Neh means “I’m Hungry” Owh means “I’m Tired” Eh […]

I’ll admit – I think Pip’s a bit more time consuming than my other two babes.  Don’t get me wrong – she’s a really good baby but she doesn’t like to be put down – she either wants to be fed or held.  It’s making sewing a bit difficult to fit in.  When she is […]

I hope all the mom’s out there are having or had a fabulous day! Here’s my mom with two of my beautiful little girls – do you think she’s proud to be a Grandma again!? Here’s my favorite picture of my three beautiful girls that are how I became a mom.  And now…I have to […]
