Lost Teeth


Monday night, Jon exercised his expertise in pulling teeth! Kate's been wiggling her bottom teeth for months without even telling us. Monday morning she showed me how far back her bottom left tooth could bend back and when I wiggled it, I also wiggled the right one and that one was just as ready. So, that night Jon pulled the left one, then the right. She got two teeth out of the way. The only hard part was getting the bleeding to stop. Her top teeth are pretty loose too, so she couldn't bite down on the gauze very hard. I wouldn't be surprised if those two on the top came out by the new year!

Yeah! Dad's are the best for pulling teeth! I got Evan to yank out his own (with his second tooth) and now he walks around passing his "knowledge" on to his little friends that have loose teeth! It's kind of cute. Yeah for Dad's though, Evan would've never lost his first tooth without his! :)

Blogiversary

Today is my blogiversary! One year ago today I switched my blog over to Blogger. To celebrate, I want to do a little drawing for all my friends and family! I haven't yet decided what the winner will get ... I think it depends on who the winner is (I don't want to send a crayon roll to someone without children, or an apron to my brother, etc.). Rest assured though, that the winner will get something homemade from me, just as a little thank you for being my friend! So, start commenting ... and I'll send the total number of comments I receive by next Wednesday at 11:59 CST through random.org, then announce the winner next Thursday.

85+ Books!

It's been almost a year since I started keeping track of all the books I've read.  When it's all in a list ... by date ... it really makes me realize how much I read!  I burned through almost a book a day in the month of January: 24 books total ... the greatest number of books in one month!  After compiling the list, I figured I may as well share it with all my friends!  I've organized them by genre/topic ... and now I realize I need to branch out more!  Books I read multiple times this year have asterisks.

Finished Project Friday: Maryanne's Blessing Dress

(I know it's not really Friday, but I just finished this today and couldn't wait to show ya'll .) I finished Maryanne's blessing dress early! Well, what you would call early for me. When I made Andrew's blessing romper I was pounding in the snaps around the legs and on the back around 9:00 the Saturday night before he was blessed. So, to have Maryanne's dress done a week before her blessing is really good for me. This pattern was a challenge for me because the directions weren't very explicit, but after I did what I was supposed to they totally made sense. And, I forgot how to make button holes, so that was an adventure. This was the first time I've ever used lace on a project, and I'm really pleased with the outcome. You can't see it, but the slip has lace along the bottom edge, and I was supposed to put lace on the collar but opted it out and like it much better that way. I also made a little jacket or " saque " for her out of fla...
