Finding both a shovel and a bucket at the same time is rare around here. I put a snap on each end of this ribbon so you can detatch while playing, or not. I thought of using fabric, but, the grosgrain ribbon has held up better in the water.

Sometimes Abigail makes the neatest things. The game pieces are rocks with faces painted on them too.

Here are some lovely goodies that I won from another crafty blog! What fun! Now the advertising: http://www.sewmamasew.com/ was hosting a bloggy giveaway, so bloggers picked out some stuff to send off to happy new homes. Then people commented on how wonderful said item was. Then a comment was chosen and voila! Along comes some beautiful yarn and other goodies! The bag is a beautiful linen type fabric has an little cute pocket inside with a nifty label and snaps at the top. I am going to find a way to knit while pushing the stroller, because the bag hangs perfectly from the handle. Those snaps are a great idea!
Holly Hobbie wants to be something fun, not just a pincushion (which is all I can think of right now).
Next time, I'm going to submit my blog.
Thank you so much Erika of http://www.inspiredmamamusings.blogspot.com/ !!!! Check out her blog!

This little cutie has velour and hemp. The velour is so so soft! Part of a diaper swap with other mamas due in April. Looks a little worn because we were using it while we waited for the camera issue to resolve. Thank you Emily!

Just when I thought we were done receiving wonderful handmade gifts! Along comes this adorable little boy diaper and a fun/funky zippy waterproof bag. The diaper is a great fit and I forsee it fitting for quite a while because of the stretchiness. Adorable brown and blues! Thank you Beth!

I started backstitching this before the baby. Just recently finished. Inspiration is coming in heaps right now, but, so are laundry and dishes. Also, time and sleep are in shorter supply.

Having a camera issue, can't wait to resume posting!
