i have a really bad habit.  does anyone else do this?  buy lots of crafty things with no project in mind?  i have so much fabric, trim, thread, ect…. and neraly none of it coordinates, even .  i just got these ribbons on etsy the other day.  aren’t they adorable?  but what am i going to do with them?!  any ideas?  i was thinking of it trimming a matilda jane-ish dress?  or toy holder thing like this?  or putting it on a new camera strap …. decisions!

and i thought this was sweet.  still can’t leave the big one alone with the little one, though.  we’ve never had a mobile before.  partially because our kids have never slept in the crib.  it’s just bunked up against our bed to make sure no one falls out of our bed & give us a little more room to spread out.  better view of that HERE, (before norah moved in with kayleigh & we got stuff up on the walls, lol).  but my aunt sent gift card for all the kids for christmas, so i picked this up on clearance for her.  charlotte really likes it.  it keeps her attention long enough for me to get dressed & brush my teeth even some days, lol!

oh.  by the way, i’m giving up on the 52 week project.  that lasted long, huh?  i just have too much going on with four kids, and a baby who doesn’t like to be put down.  ever.  so i am still going to do some sp’s that i have in mind, but without the pressure of doing it every week i think i can actually have quality over quantity.  hoping to do another 365 next year … but this baby is a lot of work!

    I do the same thing with craft supplies.

    That picture is so sweet!!!! Makes me want to make my girls big sisters. But I guess there has to be a “baby” of the family. ; )

    Cute pics….Aidan is 1 month older then Charlotte, and he is the same way. He likes to be held all day long, Really tiring. I wish I was even half as crafty as you are.

    Oh my goodness! How precious! I want my daughter to have a sister so bad. Those mobile pics are so sweet.

    Those ribbons would be cute as trim on a knot dress/halter.
