Ruffled Scarf

My sister-in-law Tifani gave me the idea for this fun scarf. She made one...and it turned out so cute that I had to make one for myself. I love how feminine and flirty it is! It was such a fun little project. I am definitely going to have to make a few more as gifts.


Supplies Used:
Size US 4 Knitting Needles
Sensations Flounce Yarn

Today was a Good Day!

Elizabeth and I slept in until 9:00am and then headed out to our Gymboree class. We had lots of fun playing with all of the other babies. We pretending to be ducks. We arrived home, had a snack and watched the Backyardigans. Elizabeth napped...I scrapbooked.

As Elizabeth woke-up from her nap...it started to snow outside. We decided to eat our lunch sitting next to the big window that faces out the front of our house. We ate Chicken Stew with noodles...and watched the snow.

Later in the day, Elizabeth and I danced and twirled. It was great to see her smile and hear her giggles. I was able to clean our loft, wash the dishes, and complete a couple of loads of laundry. A productive day always makes me happy!

I made Orange Chicken and Potstickers for dinner. We ate it and did not die...so it turned out well!

Tonight, while Elizabeth slept, I got to scrapbook some more while belting Alanis Morrisette songs as loud as my voice would go.

...Today was a Good Day!

HaPPy BiRtHdAy MeMe!

We love you more than you will ever know. We are so blessed to have you in our lives! We hope this upcoming year is filled with happiness and good health!

Let the Countdown Begin...

Only one more month until my sweet little Elizabeth turns two years old. I just cannot believe it. Time sure does fly. Including today, there are 31 days until my baby's birthday.

Elizabeth is doing great. She is a happy and energetic little girl. She loves to dance, sing, and run around. Her Papa always asks me, "does she ever walk!". She is talking more and LOVES babies. If there is a baby anywhere near her, she yells "Baby" and tries to give them a kiss. It is the sweetest thing...but can get a little embarrassing when she runs up to perfect strangers with her lips puckered!

Elizabeth is such a blessing in my life. I love her more than words can express. She is a ray of sunshine that brightens up each and every day. I am so happy to be able to stay home with her. My world has not been the same since she entered it almost two years ago.

The Perfect 40 Minutes

I just got done snuggling with and rocking Elizabeth in the rocking chair in her nursery. She is freshly bathed and smelled yummy. The lights were off and the room was quiet.

Life does not get any better.
