Little Feet

Shoes. I bought shoes today. Little bitty boy shoes. The first ones. Levi has graduated to toddlerhood. He walks. He runs. But mostly, he toddles. Somehow, without me even realizing it was happening, we went from being the parents of a baby and a toddler to being the parents of a (different) toddler and a preschooler. (Yes, G started SCHOOL this week, but more on that later.) It feels so strange to me to not have a baby in the house. They were the tiniest of toes.

Crafty Atrophy

I've been feeling the itch to do something, anything creative for a while now. I've always been crafty by nature but have never had the time or space to really stretch those muscles. Now that summer is winding down and things are settling here at home, the urge is getting unbearable. Maybe it's the knowledge that fall and winter and the holiday season are right around the corner. Maybe it's the fact that we have an extra room in the house that we currently refer to as "the craft room" (despite the fact that not one thing has been made in there, it is simply where I house all my junk with high hopes that one day soon I will set up shop). Pinterest is not helping, of course. Where all these ladies find the time and money to create all these amazing things is beyond me. All I know is that things must change soon.
