Dr. Seuss....in bibs

Made these for my cousin, who is expecting a baby in September and is going with a Dr. Seuss theme.

Happy Memorial Day

Snickers sundae

Kenny got a Snickers sundae today, and the Snickers melted together in the bottom of the cup. Major sundae fail.

laundry help

Chloe isn't great at helping fold laundry.

Great Smoky Mountains

is this why they're called the Smoky Mountains?

slippery fall

I managed to fall near the overhang. It was pretty epic.

lazy river

the lazy river I'll be taking advantage of.

new outfit

new outfit for the new baby :)

completed project (a diaper bag)

Finally finished!

The diaper bag I made for our little one, due late this summer.

a sewing mess

This was how I left the table Sunday night (in my sewing frenzy.)

ottoman love

Chloe LOVES the new ottoman!

bright lights

taken at the Tourists game.

new (birdhouse) tenants

New birdhouse in the yard means we have some new tenants this year

green!

The lettuce really needs to be thinned out. I planted too much.

rose buds

new hydrangeas

My grandmother received hydrangeas from my in-laws after my grandfather passed away. My grandma gave me one of the plants for my yard. I'm hoping I don't kill it....

new ottoman

I made this ottoman and it's Chloe-approved.

return of the daisies

the daisies returned! (I thought they were gone for good after being killed a month ago.)

the next sewing project

These are the two fabrics I'm using in my next sewing project - a diaper bag.

I love them. (The left fabric will be the outside fabric.)

goats

our evening walk ended early since the goats weren't on leashes.

patch job

the beginning of my patch job after I put two holes in the wall.

a little bit of Christmas in May

my latest ceramics project

laziness

She's too lazy to even try to fit on the chair.

Mother's Day

I technically didn't take this photo (my mom took it of me.)

Mother's Day gift

I received this for my first Mother's Day gift.

new (handmade) curtains

I made these curtains this week and I'm in love with the lighting as I leave for work now.

crib arrival

the crib arrived this week looking a little beat up

ripe!

At least the first ones in my yard.

Autumn Bear

Autumn Bear (aka Libby) has been missing since our big move in 2008. I found her this morning.

a stretch

Chloe likes to stretch out these days, since the floor is cooler than the furniture. Smart cat.

waiting for the strawberries to ripen

almost ready! (the one on the left was attacked by birds or squirrels.)
