This and That

I wanted to do a little update.. since I know I've been neglecting my blogging duties! I missed WILW, and SUYL this week.. geesh!

Anyways.. I guess I was busy because it was so nice outside, and I was getting ready for our annual block sale?.. Sure that sounds good.. haha..

We've been making many many trips to the park lately. Samantha loves it, and she asks to go everyday.. rain or shine. I cant even walk in the direction of the park without going anymore.. she knows which direction its in!

I did FINALLY get her to keep her sunglasses on! UGH... Not only does SJ look so cute, but she wasnt understanding till now that she could be in the sun, and not have to rub her eyes/look away...

Then today.. she let me keep a headband on her ALL DAY...May seem small to some, but .. the girl hates anything on her head.. she barely lets me put her hair in pig tails so I was really excited.


Our garage sale was a semi-success.. I sold some bar stools we bought for our condo in NC.. and here we dont have a "bar/breakfast table".. I sold a few cookbooks, odds and ends, clothes, and SJ's baby bouncy seat.. It had been in our basement, and it just seemed if I could get a good deal, I'll buy another one when I have to...


We went to BJ's tonight for our usual diapes, wipes, toilet paper stock up, and then we grilled chicken on the grill, corn on the cob, and portobello mushrooms.. mmmmm....


After bath, SJ and I headed up to the third floor.. she was playing and reading so I started cutting some fabric.. and I actually finished my very first Burp Cloth!!!!!!! I was so excited!!

A few weeks back, my Aunt came over and helped me get my sewing machine started,and taught me a few of the basics, but I havent really made anything until tonight.

Now I want to do MORE!! Im heading over to etsy, and ebay right now to see if I can snag some good deals on a few fabrics!


TA DA!!!!!!!

Hope everyone is having a good weekend!
Our baby is 23 months tomorrow.. and Im working on that post too.
