1. Redecorated our bedroom. WM went out of town on business. Kath came over to wrangle WC. I went to town on the bedroom. It went from "Sassy Green" to "Watery" in a matter of days. Out! Out! Out!! went the DKNY pink and green bedding. In drifted a navy quilted coverlet accented by drapes and pillow shams from Anna Maria Horner's "Good Folks" line. Lovely. Lovely indeed. WM was certainly surprised when he arrived home. I didn't tell him of my plans. Too fun!
2. Went to Duluth. A lovely trip. I'll spare you the details (this time) as I neglected to take any photos. However, we're going again this weekend and I will do a much, much better job of documenting our comings and goings.
3. Finally got around to making the thank you gift for MH who so kindly takes all of WC's milestone pictures. I get cutie patootie photos of my son. MH gets a custom travel bag. Hazel. This is only the fifth one made...EVER. She's not quite done as the zipper (a custom order) has yet to arrive. If/when a cost effective way to produce these occurs, these will be introduced to the general public.
That's just a little overview. There have been many early morning walks with our friends and neighbors, bonfires on the driveway, dinners with the high school gals and today a trip to Northfield with Kath.
Speaking of Kath. She's been busy on a new MaxineMargaret creation! The Channing!! This diaper wallet is sized to hold mom's necessities. It has pockets gallore. The larger pockets are designed to hold diapers and a changing pad. A smaller, flapped pocket holds cash or receipts and has slots for an ID, credit cards and a library card. Opposite the pockets, the specially designed pouch, holds a soft, travel pack of wipes. It all zips shut into a neat, little package, perfect for those times when you need the essentials but a full diaper bag would just be too much. Kathy has put in many long and hard hours perfecting this little beauty. She's already sold 10 of them! Way to go!!
