Spring swap and other stuff....

I joined a Surprise Spring Swap thru http://dutch-blue.blogspot.com/

I was partnered with Paule from England!

This is what I made for her... I did post these already...

And this is what she made for me!!

I have been going to sewing groups a bit lately so this will come in very handy!

Thanks Paule!!

LOOK!!!! The house is clean! =-)

Aubrey read herself to sleep during "quiet time"...

Aubrey being silly...

I told Carson to stand behind me and make faces at Aubrey..to get her to smile or laugh... Instead she made faces back! =-)

Cute boy!

Aubrey wasn't being very photographable that day.. But wanted to get pictures of the dress I made her. It is the lily top from pink fig.

It went together fast. I'll be doing that again.. and again!!

A better shot of the dress... why does she always have soemthing in her mouth?!?!

Daffys from Daffidil days for the Cancer Foundation... and Aubrey's boots..

Aubrey having a study with her baby... and Carson's Bible and hymn book..

Classic pout... And another dress I made her awhile back... I LOVE bright colors... can you tell?

Puffy braid crown...

For April fools I made a special dinner... we had dessert first.. meatloaf "cake" "frosted" with mashed tatos... and "jello" lemonade.

And a hamberger for dessert...

Must be spring... there are bare feet everywhere!!!

All my bulbs are coming up as the snow melts off them, nothing blooming yet. SOON!!!


Carson can write his name...I haven't hardly worked with him...we both get frustrated when I do...so when I leave him be, he figures it out! You can't hardly see, but he signed his name at the bottom...

Hard to believe he will be 5 in Sept. He misses the cut off, so will be in Preschool a couple days a week this year. It will ease both of us into it. Growing up is a gradual process of letting go... sigh!

Aubrey is doing pretty good with Potty training.. Today was probably the first day with NO accidents. If I remember to take her, she'll go. but doesn't tell me she needs to go very often. The poo thing is still hit and miss. Mostly miss... in the last 2 weeks we've probably had 5 hits... Oh well, it IS getting better!

Juneau Convention is coming up the end of May.. that will make it interesting. =-) I'll also be in the dorm with Aubrey and Carson will be with Daddy this year... a bit different than being in the nursery!

I guess that is it... all the updates I can think of! Thanks for joining me!
