Baby Bibs

 Oh my Janome, how I've missed thee! Finally have my sewing machine back up and running after a painful 5 weeks. After bringing my machine in to be serviced 3 times I finally sat down with the technician and we figured it out. Yay! Now I can get back to my woman-cave in the basement and finish Camron's quilt. I've also been working on these baby bibs. Some are already given away as gifts to cute little owners ready to wear them in. I'm working on an apron for Alivia and also made one for a little friend too. I guess there can be plus sides to rainy days after all... but I REALLY miss the sunshine.

Can't wait to cut into these prints from connectingthreads.com.

Any ideas on what to make...?

Stitches

Stitches!! I knew this day would come one day... just knowing the way Camron plays. He was making forts behind the couch and was running behind it and tripped and hit his head on the corner of the coffee table. Geoff came to my rescue an hour later so I could take him to the hospital to get it looked at. After 4 hours of waiting we finally decided to head over to the walk in clinic for better service and then another 30 minutes of waiting we got in and he came out with 3 stitches. Of course the next day was his birthday party with friends and that same Saturday (2 days away) we were getting our pictures taken. But I guess that is a fact of life.

Abigail's 7 months and growing so fast! I think we can almost call her in the crawling stages.

Alivias thing lately is pulling out her pigtails. I've grown tired of redoing her hair whenever we have to go out... so this week its only brets.

Birthday Cakes

I haven't been m-i-a just busy with the everyday things. Since Camrons birthday I couldn't think of much to blog about other than the little gritty things. Then Camron was mentioning to me about how much he loved his birthday cakes so I guess here's the tribute to those...

We celebrated Camrons birthday here at home before we left for Alberta to visit family and friends for the spring break. We flew there using some airmiles and getting Alivia and Abby on the plane for free yet . We had a wonderful time! It was a relaxing time with some fun in between. We even got to swim at west edmonton mall water park. What a hoot! I'm bummed that we forgot our camera that day. I guess its a great excuse to go back again.

Camron's 4!

4 years old

Our first born son has turned 4! He's growing so fast and is learning so much. I find him outsmarting me in more ways than one. I'm trying to jot down all the cute things he's said and will say. I love reminiscing his past years that we've been blessed to share with him. I love my boy!!
