impromptu party











On Family Day we threw together a party for Penny! All of the Evansons' were planning on swimming at the pool that day, so Andy and I thought, "Hey, why not just get it over with ?!" ( I know it sounds like we don't care, but this is what happens when you are on your 3rd child)
So last second plans were made and it was PARTY TIME!!!

Swimming plus pizza plus a PERFECTLY SWEET ice cream cake that seemed to be just made for Penny and waiting for us in the deep freezer of the DQ.
equals SUCCESS!
That was so easy we might even throw Penny a 2nd 1st birthday party!!

a promise is a promise



I bet you did expect a post that fast! I am just that cool I guess.
I just wanted to share some of my latest creations...
















As well as headbands, I also am dabbling into blindfolds...

ok ok ok...

Well it's been just over a month since my last post. I guess I should get my butt in gear and start doing more posts, or not, we'll see... I wish I could stay off of Facebook for more than a month, that would be an accomplishment wouldn't it!?

The past month has been a month of teething sorrow in our house, poor little Pen Pen, she is by far the WORST teether we've had. She's CAH-RANKY! earaches, snot face, diaper rash, name a teething symptom, any teething symptom, she's got it.

Fortunately, all days are not bad days. Here's the at home crew participating in one of our famous family movie nights. Penny just can't get over Will. She lights up when she sees him, Aubrey on the other hand is, well, we're working on being nice to our little sister.
Skills such as:
-Gentle patting on the back
-screaming in the baby's face, yes or no?
-Dragging baby aroung the house by the foot of her sleepers, should we or shouldn't we?
-Chokeholding baby , why it's wrong...
Needless to say, when Aubba comes around, Penny gets a little tense.
...and lastly we'll touch on my new love in life, crochet.
I've been cranking out these cute little headbands for young, old and inbetween.
I'm glad I found a little hobby that I enjoy doing. It's always fun to find a new passion and pursue it. Now all I need to learn is how to read those accursed patterns...

p.s. I promise to TRY to blog at least one more time this month.
