She loves these pants. I held her up by the mirror so she could see the kitty on her butt.

Cutting out fabric for aprons. I have really enjoyed making these, but I think I'm ready for a new project. I want a pattern for a girl's-sized purse.

Waiting at the gate in the family room for Daddy. Sometimes we put extra clothes on her because it's been cold and drafty here. (-20 cold)

I like schedules. I like to know what the plan is. Ha.

Cutting out fabric for making preschooler-sized aprons. Why are sock monkeys so funny-looking?

So, she wants to feed herself. Of course, this had to happen at some point. She's actually pretty good, but she really likes stirring the food, and overloading the spoon.

Still enjoying Valentine's roses, and of course, the sunshine.

She loves reading this book I made with family photos. She calls it "hi-da" because her favourite photos are Daddy. She almost cried when I took off her tutu.

This is probably the only thing that looks like Spring around these parts. We're still under at least a foot of snow (though it melts on the roads).

She loves scrambled eggs with cheese and spinach. I wonder when I'll have to hide veggies in her food.

Now that she can chew (mostly, but she'd prefer to just swallow) she can eat fun snacks like these tiny penguin crackers. Now I bring snacks with me everywhere.

I'm really enjoying these long winter shadows on our walls. It sort of makes up for so much snow and more snow.

He brought me the best looking roses. I love the part where they curl in tight. xoxo

I went to the lake to take pictures. It was utterly quiet. Could have seemed extra quiet because I didn't bring the 15-month old Little Banshee with me.

My mom came to visit and baked. :) We even managed to share some with neighbours.

Happy pre-Valentine's Day. I tried this photo shoot idea a couple years ago but it turned out too dark (I didn't know how to shoot manually).

She has current favourite books. We are required to read them several times before we can move on to other books.

It's been cold and crisp and the dry cough still lingers.

Our little snow bunny. She can walk on her own but the snow is pretty slippery so she wants to hold our hands.

She loves to "model" random pieces of clothing she finds. Then she does the loop. It's like a mini parade or fashion show.

I got sick, then she got sick. Trying to catch up.

My cards arrived today; it was very exciting. The pearl paper and coated finish is worth the extra cost - better than the recycled paper. Ordering more today.

We made fettuccine alfredo, a favourite. She's starting to feel better, showing more spunk than yesterday.

She woke up coughing. We went to the emergency room to her medicine. She cried a lot. I wish I could be sick instead of her.

I love water.

A new box of a new favourite tea. It helps with my dry cough. It's the last day of his set of shifts. Today is our Friday.

Making twice-baked potatoes. Hoping Naomi's not getting a cold.

Making children's aprons in my spare time. I like these relatively quick projects. Well, quick if I don't make too many mistakes. She loves playing with my fabric pieces.
