Welcome Baby

Afternoon everyone.  What a beautiful day we are having here.  nice bright warm sunshine.  I even ventured out for a walk down the road.

Here is my card to go with the final baby sweater.  I sponged the background with a stencil and distress ink. Stamped the little froggie and colored him with pencil crayons.

CHALLENGE
Case this Sketch - #120

I'm sorry I can't get the sketch to show up.  It's 11:30 when I've gotten back to my post to finish this.  After picking up my daughter from school and taking her to dentist.  And picking my son up because he hurt himself on the way to the skate park after school.  Only to have to take him to the hospital after dinner because he couldn't put any weight on his knee.  After two and half hours they were sending us home with a strained knee.  With orders to not do anything that hurts it.  So I ask, "how do I get him to walk when he can't put any weight on his knee?" So the doctor asks "Would crutches help?" Do you think?

Oh the Sweet Sounds of Nature

Morning all. What a great day this turning out to be. So far I have lurked around in some blogs, gone for a walk, and sat on the back patio and read my book. So peaceful to hear all the birds in the trees. The squirrels scurrying up and down the trees. And in the background the sound of the cars on the highway. Next on my list a baby card to go with this beautiful sweater I crocheted. I'm a knitter and don't do much crocheting. They always look so lacy, I finally got up the nerve to try one. I'm very happy how it turned out.

Happy Sweet 16

Good evening everyone.  I'm a little late to post my card.  It's been a busy work week, with only one day off.  Tuesday was my daughters 16th birthday.  I can't believe it.  Where has the time gone?  It seems like yesterday we were the nervous parents bringing home our first little bundle of joy.  Through all the ups and downs of growing she is becoming a fine young lady. She makes me very proud. Now comes the driving lessons.  She's already asked dad about it.  No mention to mom though.

happy birthday sweet girl

Another Wee One

Afternoon everyone. Quick post before off to work. We are finally seeing an end to winter. Nice warm sunny days, finally melting all the snow.  The winter slump is starting to leave.



Here is the second baby sweater. I'm really  loving the color of this one. The pink with cream. The third sweat is different. Decided to try crocheting. Almost finished it, just have the bonnet to finish.
