Someone Stop Me

I went to the fabric store today, I had a big list of things I needed and found a bunch of cute fabric for new bags!!! I sooo should not go to that store without someone to stop me;) Maybe I need to set up a phone line and call someone when I am about to buy more fabric!!! You all know it will not be most of you because you guys might get me to buy more instead of less;) Anyway I think I got some cute stuff, wait until you see the cute bags I am going to make out of them.

I also got a bunch of notions. You know cause I needed them to. Well maybe need is not the right word.




Here are the 2 cuties that helped me shop.

Yet Another Crafting Day

Yesterday we (Elijah and I) went to a friends house. She has 2 kids and the 3 kids played all day while my friend and I crafted. I got 13 new bags cut out and ready to sew!!! I can hardly wait to sew them. Does it seem crazy to try and have a crafting day with 3 kids under 6? Yes you say. I would of agreed, but it went well. Her house was a little crazy when we where done, but we got it fixed up.

Toy Shopping

When Elijah was little and we had no toys, I spent a lot of time in the toy stores buying lots of toys (looking back I now know we did not need most of them). When I would go to someones house and Elijah liked a toy I would think about the toy until I went out and got it for him. I did sometimes refrain from getting toys, but when kids are little they out grow stuff fast and "need" new developmental toys to help them grow and learn (because they would not grow and learn without them...right;) With Ada Liz it has been different. She just seems to be growing and learning without new toys all the time (image that!). But sometimes she really likes a toy at someones house and I think... I have one of those in the basement somewhere I should get that out. Well today I went "shopping" in my basement (one of the cheapest toy stores around... and no that is not invitation for anyone to brake into my basement and take toys;) So long story short here are some of the new to her/old to Elijah toys that I got for Ada Liz today. She loves them and so does Elijah.

And here is Elijah walking on his foot for the first time in 4 weeks!! He still needs to where the cast when he is playing, but it is nice that he can have it off sometimes.

Crafty Thursday

Yesterday I had a friend from Church stop by and we worked on the quilt that we are doing for the Church's crying room. It is moving along, slowly, but moving. It will look way cute when it is done.

Big Girl Overalls

Today Mark took Elijah to school so that Ada Liz and I could have some home time. She and I got to play and laugh and give kisses (her new thing, very cute). Right now she is in her crib taking a nap (one of the first naps in her crib this week, we have been busy). Lots going on, but not much to blog about. Just wanted to check in and say hi and share these photos. My Mom and I bought these overalls for her last year and the thought that she would ever fit into them made us laugh, but here she is all big. I know that she will be growing so fast in the next couple of years and soon I will be saying " Can you believe she used to fit in these overalls!"

Where Have You Been?

A friend of ours got this shirt for Elijah and he loves it. He wears it often. The other day he had it on and a mom in the playgroup asked if he had ever been there (Goddard Space Center) and Elijah looked at her like she was crazy "No I have never been to outer space!!" She just smiled and let it go.

News Flash

This just in:

Elijah is watching Super Why (on PBS) and they just asked him his name. He answered like "Elijah and this is my baby sister Ada."

So nice of him to include her;)
