Craft Day at the Palmers

I love that little apron, Tawnia.  Awesome use for old jeans and having the pockets is super helpful.  And I hope I'm having a girl too so you can make me a bunch of those hats!!  But if it is a boy, I'd love a hat with a brim.  (Or any of the cute tie/vest onesies here.)  And the flowers are cute too.

I did find something that I wanted to make.  Obviously my brain is in baby-prep mod, so I'd love to make a baby carrier - especially when it's just one long piece of fabric.  All we have to do is pick out fabric, cut it in half (lengthwise) and hem.  Tada!  You can find more information here. Hooray for Mom having a sewing machine!

Another idea

So another idea I have is to make a lunch bag that is washable. So I found this pattern. More sewing.... should be interesting.

And Mom, you asked how much time we'll have to complete these projects. Here's my thought on that. We'll get started and see how much we can get done in a day. Anything that doesn't get done.... well, once I'm done with grad school this summer I'm going to be looking for some things to keep me busy! So we'll have some projects lined out for the summer, yay!

the first day of Valentine's

I don't remember what the conversation was, or exactly how she said it ... the other day at dinner, Summer announced that Grandpa is her best friend.

Just thought you'd like to know!
