In case you were wondering if I had totally switched gears and stopped sewing altogether, I didn't. When I cleaned up my room with my mom we made a list of things I should accomplish before I started any new sewing projects. The last thing on my list is to finish Sarah and Rachel's scrapbook of their first year. I have put my sewing machine aside and covered my sewing table with scrap paper, scissors, tape, stickers and various other scrapping tools. So far, I have scrapped 6 pages in the last two days. Today I'll start on 11 months for Sarah. What a relief it will be to have these finished. Then I can start on Lily's and try to not be behind.
I already have a list of sewing I want to do when this is over and it's a big motivation for me to finish the scrapbooks so I can satisfy the sewing itch. I have a skirt to sew for my mom, and one for me, a pair of pajama bottoms for each of the girls and some things I've been mulling over in my head that I might be able to sell in my etsy shop.

Yeah! I bet you feel such an amazing sense of accomplishment when that is finished!
I was wondering about your etsy shop just yesterday and wondering if you had done anything more with it. Cannot wait to see your creations - you are the most amazing seamstress around!
well, we'll see how all this goes now that LILY HAS THE CHICKEN POX! we just got back from the doctor and it's been confirmed, lily is carrying a higly contagious disease. big sigh...what a long month.
Oh, no! Is is dangerous for her to have it at such a young age? I bet she's just miserable...my heart oes out to you, Jo!
apparently the younger you are the milder the case, except if you're two months or younger. so far she's chipper but del was, too the first couple of days and then he was as miserable as it gets. hopefully it'll be mild. but the doc said she'll still have to get the vaccination because they don't develop antibodies this early; they start building antibodies at 12 months. sad, eh? i'll take some pictures.
