Crafting Along With needle and thREAD

Not much here, folks. I have been spending some time cleaning out and organizing pockets of resistance in my home. I boxed up the maternity clothes to put away unitl next time. I did a good decluttering on the playroom.  I even cleaned out and organized the craft closet.

I did do some mending.  I realized that while it is so much more fun to create new things, I also need to take care of what we already have.

But I made some repurposed wool shorties for my one year old niece, Bee.




Yep. That's it. That's all I got for this week. :)


The reading part..... more and more and more of Mama & Bunny reading time!  Here are a few of her very favorites this week-- 


A funny little thing she does now, on any book containing animals of any kind... she wants to know if they have "nursies" and then she remembers this little fact.  So if a monkey is in the book, she will say "Monkey have nursies." Or in the owl book, she will say "Owls don't have nursies"! It is too cute!
