SNAP PRESS HEAVEN!!!

Today the snap press I ordered arrived. I am soooo exstatic! I can not wait to start practicing! I have been ordering tons of malden mills fleece from the numerous co-ops that have been featuring them. I can't wait to get it all and start making covers for lil miss Emilia.

On Sunday the 16th, Emilia was baptaized. The ceremony was beautiful and we had a wonderful time with the family. I loved being back in the church that holds so many beautiful memories. From elementary school, to our marriage to the boys baptism, to my nephews baptism, other family members weddings.

It was great to be home, the place I grew up, the place that I have some very cherished childhood memories. I reminised riding my horse through the woods, fields and down the dirt roads, which now inhabit developements, a new highway and overgrown brushes. It saddened my heart to see this, but I understand that change occurs, but nonetheless, it was hard to explain to boys what it USED to be.

Emmie (as we lovingly call her) is rolling over now, blowing raspberries for attention and belly laughing. She is making a game out of blowing bubbles it and it is funny.

I have just started a cloth making playdate at my house once a week. Its a great way to get people to learn about cloth diapering and to share in the fun and obsessive qualities of it! Not to mention along with the quilting playdates once a week it gives me the perfect excuse to sew and do something I love twice a week... there is a reason for my madness :):):)!!!

I have been trying to post this for almost a week, and I keep saving it as a draft, but today, God Willing, it will be posted. I still am unable to post pics and that burns me to no end, but the savings of $25 a month sure helps! So... what's a little sacrifice?

If you're still reading my posts.... thank you.... I would love to hear any comments at all! May you stay safe and happy! Namaste'!
