Crafty Ladies

Momma, Baby Stella, & Millie on the new couch in the sunroom.  Mills thinks it is her personal duck-watching platform.

More artwork from MDO...they learned about rabbits last week.  Are her hand cutouts supposed to be the whiskers??  

And they learned about sheep the week before that...I really like the head tuffet (sp?).

I had plans to make a Christmas wreath out of burlap, but I never got around to it in December.  So I made this super cute (in my opinion) Valentine's Day wreath for our front door.  I've never worked with burlap before.  I don't think I ever want to again.  It smells awful and sheds like a scared cat.

When she's in the mood, you can get a really good cheese face out of her ;)

Millie slept until 7:45am this morning!  That has never happened in the history of Millie.  I was on the verge of going upstairs to make sure she was alive when she finally woke up.  It was amazing...I was able to get ready and eat breakfast and make her lunch ALL before she was up.  I kept thinking...oh, so this is what those other moms get to do in the mornings.  I thought it was an urban legend.  Millie has always been my alarm clock...usually between 6-6:30.  I don't know what happened this morning, but let's hope it is a trend.  JKK cracked me up as he was leaving for work (before she was up) when he said I should tell her he was disappointed in her decision to sleep in this morning.  He likes to see her in the mornings. :)

Yesterday, the weather was just warm enough for a playdate with Tracey and Grey at the playground.  I'm pretty sure none of them knew I was taking this pic.  We've been lucky again this winter and haven't had it too bad...maybe Phil was right and an early Spring is in the works.  Fingers crossed...
