Teeth n Totes

Esme Angler Fish

This was a tough day: Miss Esme is sprouting her very last baby tooth and letting everyone within screaming vicinity know that it hurts. And I hurt for her. But between the howls and monkey clings and throw-herself-on-the-floor tantrums, I couldn’t stop kissing both my babies’ sweet heads today. Because I have them to kiss and I’m here to kiss them and I’m so appreciative of that.

Party Bags

I made up these drawstring favor bags for a little friend’s 4th birthday party this coming weekend. They’re based on the farmer’s market totes that I made this spring, which my kids never wear but that I now use myself and find handy dandy for stuff like cell phones and lip balm in the diaper bag. Cuz you know, someone’s gotta use em. But I digress…

I’ll be living vicariously through the farm party this weekend: hay rides, u-pick flowers, late season berries, SUN!! Impossibilities for mid-february birthday celebrations such as ours. So this last little jaunt in the farm-y fields will be ever so appreciated.

Happy weekend everyone, and hopes and prayers to our Texan friends that Ike simmers his bad self down.

Those are so cute! How nice of you to make those. I have a friend who son has a winter b.day and they just waited until summer to have the party so it could be outside. Something to think about it!

The bags look amazing! You are the most awesomest friend ever--just let us know when you want to cash in on the childcare trade!

I feel your pain! Samuel is working on his first tooth right now, and he's letting everyone know about it also! But, we must remember, this too shall pass...

The bags are great! I need to pare down my bag - I handed it to Ella yesterday. . . "Mom, it's so heavy - what do you keep in there!?" Too much - is what's in there!

I'm looking forward to your package - Thank you.

Those bags look great! I hope Esme's tooth is in now and feeling much better. If I were heading to a farm party this weekend, I'd be living vicariously right with you!
