Crazy Days and Crazy Hair

We've had Augie for a week now. She's already getting bigger! It gets insane in here during the day between the puppy, the toddler, and sir snorts a lot. I got a little overwhelmed today for a bit but I put everyone (including myself) on a five minute time out in our respective rooms.Things ran much smoother after that. These rainy days are killer. No walk for Augie and no running time for Riley = two very hyper young ones. I have my "what were we thinking" moments, but it'll all be worth it. Riley and the rest of us will have a great companion for many years to come.


My girl.





This is Augies favorite spot. She'll be disapointed when she grows out of it! The bowls, on the other hand, she'll have to grow in to :).

My Anual Post...

Well... One year later. I'm still working on Riley's quilt. It is a bit farther than in this picture. It is all basted together just waiting for the long process of quilting and binding. Perhaps this time next year I can post the finished product ;). I've been keeping myself busy with other projects. I took up knit and crochet and LOVE it. In the last few days I've also dusted off my art supplies. I didn't realize how much I missed it. I'm a bit rusty, but I'm having fun.

I saw a cool project online using watercolors and masking fluid. Doesn't Steven make an uber cool subject?

The finished product.

Today I decided to pay homage to my favorite old cowboy boots. I ran out of pencil (charcole) before I was close to finishing and my sharpener has run away from me. Guess I'll be making a trip to the store in the morning.
