Smug Cat
When I drew this pattern, it was supposed to be a bear. Once it was finished though, I realized that it is definitely a cat. He wanted a scarf so he could be more hip, but I think it makes him look smug. What a jerk.

Supermangirl
Superman got tender today, and decided to embrace his feminine side. We made him give back the dress, but we let him keep the flower.
I made Peanut a matching diaper cover for this dress today. I just happened to have bought a big sheet with matching orange and pink flowers on it a few weeks ago, and then last night my MIL showed up with this dress which did not come with a diaper cover. It was perfect in a very nerdy way for me. Superman would be wearing it in the photo if his hips were a little bigger, but then that would just totally ruin his image.

Firsties!
I laid out my first quilt yesterday. On paper, of course. This one's going to be a gift, and the lettered areas are going to be quilt blocks with photos printed on to them. I'm really hoping I did this right, because my quilting experience is nonexistent except for a tiny patchwork practice quilt I made for no other reason except to get the basic quilting skills down. Now comes the part where I pick out fabrics that will hopefully coordinate with the pictures. Also, making my own quilt binding by hand. Should be interesting!

Shamrock Shake
My husband brought me one tonight. I ate all the whipped cream, and the cherry of course, but I was too full to fully enjoy the delicious green part. I may have to go get another one before they're gone.

Magazines
She has recently taken as interest in them. She reads a bit differently than I do though. She tends to use her mouth. Maybe chewing on the words is more satisfying than reading them?

Momma Made...
...A birdy shirt for the little lady a few days ago. And a matching headband. She just learned how to pull headbands off her head though, and apparently how to stretch them out so far that they can't go back down to their original size. Also, she dribbled food on the shirt a short while later, and the stain decided not to come out in the wash. So, they were fun and cute while they lasted! Thank God I took pictures when I did.

Thumper
In honor of our purchase of Bambi on DVD, we got her her very own Thumper yesterday. Well actually, she picked him out. We held up this Thumper and a Minnie Mouse doll, and she grabbed Thumper. Good choice. We watched Bambi today.

Holy Icicle, Batman!
If I had to guess, I'd say it's about 5 feet long. Deadly? I would say probably yes.

Jessie & Anthony are getting engaged!
And they very kindly asked me to shoot their engagement photos! I was so happy to do it! We had a lot of fun, and it snowed the whole day. It was the perfect light snow for some lovely winter shots. I can't wait to shoot their wedding!

Posing?
No, just trying to remodel by pulling down the vertical blinds. Also, trying to get to the plant.
Taken a few weeks ago.

Love
I love getting home from a car ride at night, getting out of the car, and looking in the back seat to see this.

Enchiladas
Yes, I made them and yes, they were incredible. By the way, if you don't use Cholula you're insane.

Holy Baby Food, Batman!
Some friends of ours gave us all their extra baby food today. I think we'll be ok for a very, very long time.

Memories on V-Day
The other night I opened up one of these. I started drinking it, and my husband told me that this is the beer I was drinking the first night we ever met. I didn't remember that detail, but I remember the night.
My friend Mike invited me over to his house to hang out, and he also invited Josh (now my husband). Mike offered me a beer and I told him I didn't really like beer. He said I would like this kind. I didn't. I opened it and pretended to enjoy it while we all sat and hung out. Josh told me he also remembered that I was drinking it but he knew I didn't really want it.
I don't know why, but I was surprised that he remembered something like that, especially since we didn't actually start dating until several months later. It made me smile, though.

Scrabble
We decided to bust out the Scrabble board. The husband beat me, 256-221 with words like "hidery" and "turds." See that bottom-right photo? Yeah that's a pretty good summary of the kinds of letters I kept getting. We'll have a rematch soon. He's going down.

It's Devouring Our Furniture.
The laundry monster has somehow moved from our bedroom to our living room chair. I think it's as tall as me. Scary.
