Taking life one cup at a time…
Boy! Yup! Baby number 3 is a boy. I’m excited. I would be excited if we were having a girl. I’m just really super-stoked that we’re adding another little person to our family. So. Much. Love! Here he is, the little man, just hanging out! Naturally, I’ve already been scoping out boy patterns. We have …
Can I just start by saying that I strongly dislike moving? Especially while pregnant. Unpacking is going very, very slowly… very slowly… I do have two boxes of cookbooks unpacked, though, and they’re staring at me. But…there are other boxes of cookbooks, books, fabric, clothing, etc. that all still need to be unpacked and put …
Well, it’s official. Not only have I been knocked out for the last few months by first trimester pregnancy woes, but we’ve been packing up our home and getting ready to move next month. Wining Husband has accepted a job offer that offers our family some better opportunities. There’s quite a bit of a move …
Today’s post was going to be titled “Versatile Skirt/Dress Made from Sew Cheeky Fabric’s Retro Doodle knit” or something to that effect.

It’s time to get ready to send Tiger Boy back to school. I can’t believe he’ll be a high school sophomore this year. I have a lot of things I want to get done before the new school year starts, including finishing up the robe I began making him last year (I know, I know). …
Last night, I was checking out some of my favorite blog RSS feeds, and I came across a post over at A Beautiful Mess taking up the 100 Happy Days challenge. The idea is that for 100 days, you take a picture of something that made you happy, post it on social media, and tag it with the …
I’m going to start off by saying I’m not particularly devout. I’m a Methodist, and, well to be honest, the whole organized religion thing has always been a struggle for me – I didn’t start going to church until 2011. In fact, the first time I went to my church, it as also the first …
ACK! Ehehm. Excuse me. They say that life is what happens between plans. Life is what’s happened between blog posts! This blog has been silent for FAR too long. I apologize. Here’s a recap of what’s gone on for the last six months. 1. The Frost or Fog 5K – January This was the first …
