Amelia says she just has to have those shoes. They are so cute! Maybe I can follow the directions...or pass the idea on to grandma who is a seasoned seamstress :)

I have that leafy fabric from the knitting needle case! I made an Amy Butler Swing bag for my husband's boss's wife last year using some coordinating brown denim-ish stuff for the contrast. I have seen that fabric in so many places online. I think everyone must have bought some. And no wonder!

I love the baby shoes! My baby has a pair from the same pattern (I think) and she and I both love them. I think I need to make some too! I know several babies who would appreciate them.

I came across your blog via the comments at All Sorts. Your name caught my eye because it's what my mom wanted to name me back in 1977. My father nixed that (guess he wasn't a fan of Bread) but I have always felt a connection with Aubreys much like the connection I feel with folks who share my actual name (Lindsey)

And now I have probably creeped you out so I'll say goodbye! Oh! Now that I am looking at your blog some more I see that we went to the same college! I left after just one year but I did really enjoy that year! I look forward to reading some more of your posts as time allows.

Blessings!

Giveaway

I've been watching in amazement for a few days as the links over here keep growing and growing with people who are hosting giveaways. The last time around I didn't participate, but now that things are slightly more settled in my somewhat crazy but wonderful job I thought I'd make an offering. The softies I make don't quite compare to amazing things you might see here or here , but I still think they are pretty cute. All those who leave comments will be entered to win the homemade softie of their choice, either an owl : (You can pick the colors you'd like, from a list of colors I have.) Or a penguin : Who will come with sunglasses, goggles, and a winter hat. (Because every good penguin should be prepared.) You can also pick (from a limited list) colors for the penguin's hat and glasses. I'll hold the drawing on Monday, since I'll be on call on Sunday, and the post the winner on Tuesday. Feel free to leave in your comment any favorite crafty blogs - ...

I am an awesome mom.

I won a new prize in the awesome mom category today. I have for some time been adding up points for all the ways that I am a good mom. Cut his tiny hand on his fourth day of life when I was cutting off the hospital band: check (He still has the scar!) Found rocks from our fireplace in his mouth: check Set down a knife on the table within his reach: check Turned around and found him holding said knife: double check Found leaves in his mouth: check, check and check Found him holding my razor, which I set down on the tub while he was in the bathroom: check Today, though, I set a new record. I locked Judah in the car. With all the windows up. See? Awesome mom, right here. It was a total fluke thing where I was tossing the keys onto the front seat as I was getting out and about to get Judah out. As I closed my door, the keys fell off the seat and into the shutting door, which closed on the lock button on our remote. And just like that, in a split second, Judah was locked in. ...

Final Picture Catch-up.

First, about 8 weeks ago, we saw this.... Then this: A little bit later there was this: And this: And Last week it was this: I'm now 13 weeks along, due in late March. We feel incredibly blessed, and of course, are very, very excited. (Working at a doctor's office and knowing how to do ultrasounds definitely comes in handy when you want to see your baby... And yes, I have been doing my own ultrasounds. It's a bit awkward, but I'm getting better.)
