you are so cute i can hardly stand it!
now let me go grab a homemade bow tie
and your baby gap onesies
and we can go play baby dress up!

tomorrow is always fresh

last week was hard notwithstanding the amazing snow
and the nights were even harder
today i was able to get out and run some much needed errands for myself
i have decided that i can't do it all by myself
and sometimes i need a break
it also helped that i watched the most lovely movie-
anne of green gables
it had been too long
i was comforted by the amazing scenery and fashion and quotes
with that said here are some patterns and images
i am crushing on lately

tomorrow is always fresh with no mistakes in it.

snow day

yesterday we got snow
lots and lots of fluffy whimsical snowflakes
brock was very enchanted by them
it was the perfect day to stay inside all cozy, drinking cocoa, taking care of children, and
dreaming up warm crochet goodies
the 2 cowl scarves are from ravelry
i am making the 2nd one in deep red
the crocheted edging on the coat is from the book, crochet adorned

january lovelies

i am in need of some loveliness to counter the dirty diapers
and late night feedings
i need that hairstyle
i love the color combinations of the paper rosettes
i also love the lollies on the walls with doilies in the centers
cuckoo clocks from anthro
very whimsical

blessed is my word for 2011
