More Busy Summer Photos

We've been getting in as much fun time this summer as we can... I haven't had much time for pattern designing, but I have been working on projects like crazy to try and get everything finished before Baby arrives (in approximately 5 weeks or less).

Playtime Ideas

My little girl likes to sit with me and pretend she's putting on make-up when I do, so I saved some old compacts, scraped out the makeup, and put a coat of acrylic paint on the inside.
 
I thought she'd feel like she has the fancy stuff.  Too bad she noticed I scraped all the old crusty make-up out. Apparently she liked that part...

Busy Summer


We've been enjoying a busy June and beginning of July. Busy - not like the swamped feeling of too much to do, but the feeling of trying to get the most out of the time that one possibly can.  We've been taking lots of trips to parks, lakes, the wading pool... and the craft store.  There happen to be a lot of babies on the way this year - how exciting! - and that means a lot of knitting and crocheting for me.  I love it.
