What could be better

than watching a 1 year old and 3 year old on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning? What a treat. I hope everyone's holiday was as Merry as ours!

Trouble with a capital T

Lucy has been nicknamed the Christmas Destroyer around here. We now have more ornaments off the tree than on courtesy of Lucy :). She is the happiest kid around right now - who knew it was ever possible!! She already has a tendency to smirk at me when she's naughty, ignore me when I'm telling her not to do something and make the funniest faces I've ever seen. She is just a JOY right now. And of course, some pics to prove it...

She just keeps 'em comin...

Right before bath time, with her Princess cell phone in hand, Bridget stated, "Oops, I just texted Lucy!" Seriously, how does she even know what texting is?!?!?!?

She's Crafty - felted sweater jumper

Althought most of my crafting time has been spent sewing for the bridgt&lucy line lately, I have snuck in some other things. This jumper was made with wool sweaters I bought at a thrift store, which I then felted and then cut up to make this jumper. The pattern is from Warm Fuzzies. Bridget is thrilled with it because since it's wool, and therefore very toasty, she can wear it even now with below zero temps all week.

Bridget quote

"We have a dilemma - and it's on the table!"

Bridget has been learning about dilemma's at school and how to solve them. This quote was priceless. She fixed her dilemma with wipes. Wipes do solve almost anything :).

Christmas Card

Not to spoil the card for everyone, but here's the front!!! Is Amy good or what ?!

The Right Track

I really feel like mom and I are on the right track with bridget&lucy the clothing line. Last night when I had to start tagging our product for the show today I really just wanted to go to bed. Then I actually sat down and started tagging and I got giddy. Here's to staying giddy !!!

Ahhhh

"When Santa sees this tree I bet his smile will look beautiful" - Bridget

Bridget helped me decorate this table top tree today. I had to write down the quote because it was so cute! Notice the close-up shot were there is a huddle of ornaments perfectly placed at Bridget's height. :)

Back on!

After a week of stomach flu, that fell right over Thanksgiving - I'm back! With a lot of domesticity to catch up on; I was on it yesterday. Bridget and I made strawberry muffins for her preschool snack, I made vegetable beef stew to eat and freeze and I put together skirts and aprons for sale on etsy starting tomorrow night or probably Friday morning! WHOA! It's like I'm back from the dead - which it actually kind of felt like while I was sick. I'm back!
