Lifes Happenings

Well I was hoping to post our ultra sound pictures today but we got a call this morning saying they had to cancel and we could go in next Friday. We are still undecided if we want to find out. I think it would be kind of fun not to know but it's so hard, we will see next week what we decide.

As for life, we have all been sick for the last two weeks and are finally feeling better. I took Maddie in on Monday to the doctor, she had ear aches in both ears. the doctor asked if she was allergic to anything, I said I don't know she has never had anything. I realized then how blessed we have been none of my kids have had ear aches until now and they have never needed a prescription medicine.

Other than that I got an itch to start some sewing projects so yesterday I made Hadley and Madelyn a pair of jammies for next winter (they already have enough for now and I had material). I went to go look at Easter dresses at JcPenny's and Wal Mart yesterday for Madelyn they were kind of spendy and none of them had sleeves. I don't like her to wear sleeveless things, I figure if I start now we will never have the issue later, but besides that it will still be freezing cold here so I don't think she would appreciate it anyways. I came home and looked through my materiel that I already have and found some cute pink and off white twill stuff and a cute pattern for a skirt and jacket and a little bara(is that how you spell that?, you know a little hat). I think I will go pick out some nice pastel material for the boys and make vests and ties.

That's about as exciting as things get around here. Oh yeah to add to our list of broken appliances in the last year (oven, microwave, dryer, lawn mower) our washer went out, good thing we don't have a dishwasher:). I knew Jeremy would have no time to fix it so I called the repair man and for as much as it would almost cost to get a new one ours should be fixed on Friday. The sad thing is that it is only 3 years old. After going to laundry mat yesterday to get some essentials done I concluded that it is definitely something I can not live with out, especially when you have to take three kids with you!!!

Your sewing projects sound really cute! I am excited to see the finished products. Good luck with the ultrasound. I have enjoyed not knowing for both of the kids. Landon not so much but luckily up here they won't tell you so we've never had to debate the issue. :) Good luck!

I always toy with not finding out too, but I always do. I am feeling a spring itch to make things too. I am starting a few projects that will become birthday presents, mostly doll clothes. I'm still scared to make people clothes that would actually be worn in public.

Speaking of sewing projects... my friend called today to ask if I knew how much you charge for the card table play house thingy. We had it set up when they came to play one day and her kids really liked it. She would like to buy one from you for their bdays that are coming up. If I don't call you tomorrow, will you give me a call? I don't want to forget to get back to her, but I've been very forgetful lately about almost everything.
