2 years in the family!

We adopted this little cutie two years ago! 

When we adopted her she was tiny!

And now we're going to go back to get a sibling!  Crazy!  A few short years ago we had no idea how or if we would have children.  Embryo adoption is such a blessing!

Good weather for quilting!

Igot a lot done this weekend!  

I pieced my MILs Christmas present (that she requested from a magazine)

Not quilted yet, but it will happen soon enough. 

And I finally got the binding sewn onto the piano runner.

Above is a pre-binding shot... Below with binding.

I'm so excited about all the stitches my new Janome MC 6500 can do!  Fun!

Daughter's first homeschool day at the library!

We went to meet some other homeschoolers in the area, but the librarian set out some crayons so that Daughter and the other toddler there could participate. 

It was great!  They made dream catchers. Daughter colored... And wandered... And colored some more. It's nice that they have a homeschool day program at the library. 

There was only one other family there, with 5 kids. The mom was very nice and said that more families are usually there. I'm looking forward to next month!

No thanks

I went to get Daugter out of her crib this morning. She was standing, smiled, and said quite clearly "no thanks".

She really did want to be picked up.  But it was just totally cute :)

She loves to read :)

It begins!

I start my Estrace tomorrow!  

Our mock transfer and consult is only a month away :)

Nieces birthday!

My nieces birthday was on Saturday. I've been waiting for some pics to post about it.

It was a blast!  Minnie Mouse themed and everything was so cute. My sister went above and beyond with the decorations and Nieces outfit.  So cute!

It's always so much fun to see Daughter and Niece play together.  They're best friends!  Only 3 months apart I think they'll be close for life :)

This is the pillow quilt that I made for Niece for her birthday.  She loves it!  It makes the perfect mattress pad for toddlers.  Just the right size for crib or pack n play. 

Here's a pic of Daughter on hers 

So they're cousin quilts!  What fun :)

My mom bought the fabric for each of the quilts and I made them both for their respective birthdays.  They're minky, so not easy to sew on, but they look awesome and they're well loved :)

Play date with other NEDC babes

This Saturday we got to visit with some friends with twins from NEDC. It was a blast!  Daughter had fun playing with the twins and Mat and I visited with their parents.

We are so lucky that we met each other!  The mom and I have met a couple times before, once with Daughter. This is the first time the whole families got together. 

I'm looking forward to Daughter growing up with EA friends :)
