Wooly bully...

These cute little devils are woolie booties.... I LOVE them! SOOO cute! Gender neutral... Love them... did I say that already? LOL anyways.....  I used some Briggs&Little Heritage to whip them up.. should be good and durable.. as well as cute as all Hell!! The pattern I used was Crochet wrap around button infant boots- girls and boys by Ashlee Prisbrey, Just in case you care... I love them though.. and love making them they whip up so nice and quick!  I want to try some in cotton for all those spring babies.... eventually... LOL

I also started a pair of socks today... but see I made this time management mistake and posted a pic of those adorable devils up top there on FB and now I have a few requests... which.. I LOVE too.. so socks will get squeezed in here and there... they will be ugly boot socks.. hopefully with jeans at the lake socks for the recepiant... ah well we shall see.. any who.. nuff rambling on for me...

Talk to you all later!!

Need of some serious... organization!

Living room playspace... note the green wipe containers. They hold sets of small toys.

Pile upon pile of TOYS!
 The solution? Toy bins. and some other crafty ideas. Still stuck on the stuffed animal issue.. but thinking a nice tall hamper should fix that issue. :) Thanks for that one mom...

All those sets are in bins, now she can see them to play with them!!!
 She sets her table and makes soup! and Sandwiches! She can get out her cars have a good play toss them back in the bin and done! LOVE IT!
This was an accident. LOL I started hanging stuffed animals.. Missy didn't like animals hanging.. so I hung her dress up dresses. Then I though.. well.. what the heck, why not hang her seasonal dresses there too! Then if she wants to wear one, she can!!! I wish she had more wall, I would hang a lot more of her wardrobe like that! Might encourage her to pick it out herself!!!

Toys in the shelves. Mommy's stuff above the plastic dresser.

Gwyn and I like the cloths line for her artwork. I like to see her works up!
A LONG way to go yet.. but it is coming along... (mommy needs to clean up her bookshelf above the bed too... aparently!!)

We survived Christmas....




















Wow, yup, we survived. Was busy and quiet all at the same time... Crazy! Everything seems to be on fast forward since then... so.. I look at the calender and go.. holy banana beans where did that time go!!  I suppose I should share some pics with you.. hang on while I go see if there is anything worth sharing! LOL


We wrote to Santa very late this year. But he was quick with his response!



She wanted a ball, a puppy and Grandma and Grandpa. LOL We told her Santa couldn't bring pets, they scare the reindeer!

This was the best Santa pic we could get. She wasn't sittin' on his knee... forget that funny business.

Happy girl on the couch with a puppy, or two. (auntie's and gramma's)

We had mini Christmas at home after the big Christmas in the city with the family. Save hauling all that we got for her to the city and back.... And breaks it up some for her... I think bouncy ball and Hot wheels win the big win this year!
And that's it for now...hopefully I will have something more exciting to tell you later... but life as usual has returned... School 4 afternoons a week with Gymnastics in there on Mondays... keeps us busy. All good though... Catchya later!
