The Loss Of A Good Friend

A couple of weeks ago I told Adam that I wasn't going to buy any more new binkies after he lost his last one. I swear, this kid loses binkies like it's going out of style. And then a couple of days after I told him that I wasn't buying anymore, he finally lost his last one. I stuck to my guns and didn't buy anymore new ones. Adam was pretty sad at first, those first couple of naps and going to bed at night were pretty hard for him. In fact, the first night he cried for almost an hour. But, he eventually got over it and is now completely binkie free for 1 1/2 weeks now! He's a big boy now! Now we just need to work on potty training! ;)

He looks so much more grown up without the binkie, don't you think? He's a cutie!

Ginger Blossom

Look at what I got in the mail a couple of days ago! Sandi Henderson's Ginger Blossom fabrics!! Aren't they so pretty!? I love this line, it's so refreshing and fun! I can't wait to make something with them! I'm trying to decide what I want to make with them still. I'm either thinking a tote bag for me to take to the library and places like that or maybe a wall hanging. I don't know, we'll see. Right now I'm just having fun looking at them!

If you would like some of the Ginger Blossom fabric for yourself head on over to Beth's etsy shop! She sent these to me as a birthday gift and I couldn't be more thrilled to have them! Thank you so much Beth! I really really love them!

Guess who turned one year old today?! Adam Wyatt! Yep, my baby boy is one!! I can't believe it! This year has gone by too fast! It seems like I was just in the hospital having him!

Happy Birthday Baby!

Little Cowpoke

I can't believe that my baby is going to be one this week! It definitely doesn't feel like a whole year has gone by since he was born.



With the left over fabric squares from Brandon's Cowboy quilt, I decided to make Adam his own Cowboy quilt! I started making it yesterday afternoon and this is as far as I've gotten so far. I'm thinking I'll add one more row on the bottom and then a border and the quilt top will be done! Boy, what on earth am I going to do with three quilt tops!! I seriously need my mom to come and help me figure out how to finish them! Good thing she'll be here in a couple of weeks!

Isn't he so cute!? He's such a good baby!

So far he loves his quilt!! I added leftover strips of fabric in between each section of blocks. I think it looks pretty cute and it was a good way to use up that fabric. I don't like waste!! After I'm done with this top it looks like I'll have some extra blocks still. I didn't know how big of a quilt I was going to be making for Brandon, I didn't really have a pattern, I just started sewing, so when I was cutting out my fabric I cut out 4 inch squares out of all of the fabric. So I'll probably just keep those aside to make a scrap quilt to possibly donate. We'll see.

I got a call last night from someone from church he said they are having a potluck party tonight. Now I have to figure out what to bring! When Todd got home from work last night he said that they had told him about it last Sunday at church, but he failed to tell me this!! He also said that it is a birthday party for a 10 year old boy, which they didn't tell me on the phone! So, I guess I have to make something to bring as a gift too. Plus I have to make a treat for the Primary class I have to teach tomorrow. I've got a lots to do today!
