I had fun rounding up all these ideas to share.I have two beautiful daughters (not at all biased, am I?) and I’ve enjoyed taking photos of my girls to show their changes and development over time. I thought it {…Continue Reading}
I took the girls to our local garden’s Butterfly House this morning. Hadley started out with a little snooze in the car to build her energy for the big outing. These big butterflys were more than willing to perch on the visitors. Arden wanted nothing to do with it, but Hadley didn’t seem to mind. It {…Continue Reading}

I did it! I finally finished the second fair isle sweater for big sister Arden. Here it is with the smaller version I made for Hadley. I made this one size larger than the pattern was written, which involved a lot of figuring, so I’m really happy with how it turned out. Don’tcha just love the {…Continue Reading}

I’ve had the software on my computer since before Arden was born, but every time I went to try to play around with it I just got stuck and gave up. My eyes {…Continue Reading}
Arden helped me bake Daddy’s favorite cookies for Father’s Day – gingersnaps! We didn’t get to spend very much time together on Sunday since Dave was heading to the airport for a business trip, but we had breakfast at Tim Horton’s on the way and I think he got a couple of cookies.
