This is Willow. i named her after my friend Denas little one. Denas daughter doesnt wear alot of pink, and is very earthy, so i thought the name fit. she goes up for June 3rd on Mainstreet.

I did end up getting that order for the cupcake soaker. so i hope to make that tonight so i can ship it in the morning.

finnished this doll today. I call her Chole. she is one of my favorites. i love the sewn dress, alot more then when i woudl crochet them. you have more fun with prints.. shes going up on Mainstreet for the June 3rd stocking. i took the price down $5 to $30, because of the sewn dress. its alot quicker to make. shes about 16 inches long. my daughter was eyeing her the whole time i was making her, as i stitched on the face, Johanna kept kissing the head. i think it was a hint!

raining today. so going to mess around in the house. i might have a custom soaker order coming, so i might start that today as well!!

so i decided to have a Memorial Day sale on my two tops this weekend. im in need of Paypal, and id love to see these tops find a home. i listed them as $40 each, which cut the price down by $10. so i think thats a fair sale price. i hope they sell!!
not alot going on this weekend. no cookouts. just getting things done around the house and in my craft room. i did make a potatoe salad, hoping we'll have some turkey burgers on the grill atleast! anyway, hope you guys have a great Holiday and remeber those that serve or have served for us. and think about all those wahms that are Military wives, and try to support them this weekend!

not alot going on today. im finnishing up some brown longies. i got the cupcake longies shipped, so she should be getting those by Saturday. i need to work on a stripe alien as well...
today is catch up day. i hope to get laundry done, im working on washing diapers right now. maybe ill take line pics later......just to show off my stash a little ( or atleast part of my stash :) )
i should vaccum and wash the floors. usually cody tries to help out with washing the floor. then tonight im out to the store to get some groceries and maybe get weighed in at weight watchers. i havente been too good lately, so i really dont want to see the weigh in..summer gets to me. too many good summer salads and desserts. mayo is my favorite thing, and its everywhere in the summer!!! not to mention icecream..dont get me started on icecream. we have a farm in the next town over that makes their own icecream. its so amazing, and creamy. i can usually only do one scoop, cause its so rich. i love their chocolate with oreos in it..yummy!!!! but alas, the icecream does not love my butt, or thighs, or belly...or any part of me... why cant icecream be zero calories? the world would be a much better place!

~ added pics of some of my line drying. its like a Heartland Dreams fantasy shot!! i only have a handful of Tinas diapers...but theyre definatly worth showing off.

so my sewing machine is dead. very sad, like losing an old friend. but i must say im excited about getting a new one. maybe the new one will actuall sew fast!!lol of course it died when im in the middle of a project. im working on a shower gift for my SIL, and the shower is at the end of JUne. i figured i would make it now while i have down time..so we'll see if i get it finnished.
im working on an afghan for Nancy, she sent me the yarn months ago! but it was something to do on spare time. so im starting it. its coming out really nice, its a violet and blue stripes.
Got an order yesturday for some NB longies as the Nbs first outfit. i was very excited to be apart of this mommas memories! so im doing some cupcake longies. of course, i love cupcakes, so this will be extra cute. I got Lulubirddesigns to do a matching shirt for her. have to have a complete set, of course!!lol. im starting the longies this weekend.

im trying to potty train Johanna. its not going super well. she does pee on the potty, but she also still goes on the floor. shes like a flippin puppy! but i bought her some cheap trainers to start her off. once i feel shes getting more comfy with it, ill get Knickerdoodies to make some girly trainers for me.hopefully Johanna gets trained faster then Cody did, cause that was a nightmare! Why isnt there a Potty Training Boot Camp i can send my kids to? that would be the bees knees!
