Brusha Brusha Brusha

My baby has toofies.
2 teeth, that is.

Her daddy snapped some pictures of her first toothbrushing experience.

Yea it's pretty horrifying.
Not my baby of course-- ME.
I had a combination of mushy puffs, bath water, drool, and only God knows what else on my shirt.
Plus I just look disgusting.

Time for an intervention, self.
That means I should part with ice cream, consider make up, an occasionally brush my hair.
Yea I'm going to work on that.

But my baby--she needs nothing because she's PERFECT!
I actually bought 12 month sleepers for her.
12 MONTH
That's like a 1 year old size.
I have a baby. Not a one year old.
But soon I'll have a one year old.
Scary, it's all very scary.
I just had her yesterday, you know.

Well I had so much fun making her blocks I made another set.
I actually like these better than her distressed ones.
I like a little color, ya think?


I have some more pictures of this set on my etsy account.
I'm new to etsy, but I'm planning/hoping to have some success with it.

If nothing else, I have some super great gifts with a whole lot of love put into 'um.
We'll seee!

Homemade Wooden Antiqued Blocks


I've been begging Philip to cut Adeline's blocks for months now, and he finally did! [the only powertool I am allowed to touch is the electric sander].

So between learning to knit, entertaining a demanding baby, cooking, and cleaning; I managed to get these done.

I wanted them to look old, worn, and antique.
I think I accomplished that.

Although making them took many coats of modpodge and a lot of patience, I actually enjoyed the process. These will make great gifts!!
I have a letter of the alphabet on each block. Each block has 3 capitol letters and 3 lower case.

My next set I'll have to throw numbers in there.
My Squiggles loved them--
I think:
It was hard to tell since this guy was on.
