Ah, The Joy...


...of being a mother...baby puke & a laughing baby to go with it!!! He got a real kick out of this mess & I have to admit, it was pretty funny :) I should have known better than to hold a full baby above me and jiggle him but it was too fun watching him giggle, even when the puke began pouring out!!!

PlayTime



We had a fun play day inside today. Polly Pocket got married to Superman & in the temple no less! Glad to know she has such high standards :) Also, the girls wanted to play farm so they put their bonnets on & had breakfast on the farm. Michael Anne cooked up some tasty grub & Addi had a good time cleaning up while Michael Anne "picked" toy fruit from mommy's "limbs." Good Times!

Pioneer Day Bonnets

This was a fun project to make bonnets for my girls to wear at the Pioneer Day parade this coming Saturday. Michael & Addi are so stinking cute & I think they look adorable in their bonnets! I got the pattern from the website Mother Earth News. I didn't count the hours but it definitely took me longer than the "under two hours" they claim, but I think they came out pretty well considering that I'm definitely not a seamstress! In fact, this project was sort of a "bust the sewing machine out of the box & figure out how to use it" project more than a "hey, let's make bonnets" project. It was pretty fun though & now I'm not so scared of my sewing machine!!!
Ok, so I'm really proud of these little bonnets. I don't sew much at all so these were quite a project & I'm so excited about how well they turned out. To celebrate I'm going to try linking this post to my friend's Sew&Tell blog. Wish me luck!!

Happy Henry



Henry Christopher Johnson, 4 mos. old. Such a HAPPY baby!
He's a BIG BOY, wears 12mo. clothes already.









Prince Henry


The other day Michael Anne decided it was high time for her baby brother to become a PRINCE! So while Grandma Johnson held him "still" she went to town draping him with scarves, stickers, & of course a crown! He's pretty cute don't you think :)
