"happy halloween" was my last blog..seriously!? not that i have readers waiting with baited breath for my next entry, but that is just sad.
well, since my last post, we celebrated my dad's, brother's and husband's birthday; not to mention Thanksgiving and my sister's baby shower. okay, so maybe it's just been a busy couple of months--or maybe i just need to stop making excuses and start blogging more!
speaking of baby showers , we celebrated the upcoming birth of little Toos two weekends ago and it was a blast! taking her namesake into account and her daddy's birthplace, we partied it up mardi gras style--with beads and feathers galore! (no flashing, though. it was an all ladies shower! come on people.)
i have more photos to post from the shower, but for now i will just share one photo (taken by my sister-yes, i stole it from her blog) of a crafty creation i made for Toos. i'm relieved that this isn't a close-up photo, considering this pillow was sewn by hand and by a total amateur seamstress. i come from a family full of artistic people, who showered my and my siblings with handmade treasures when we were littles ones. i love the idea that maybe one day Toos will look at this pillow and be reminded of the many people that loved her even before she was born!
(ps- the nursery is narwhal-themed. google it if you've never heard of it; they are pretty awesome little sea creatures!)
