Life...

So I had surgery on the 23, it was pretty uneventful. I went to the hospital @ 1pm Yes I said 1 PM and I could not eat after midnight OR have any water after 4am!!! In my opinion that is just rude to make some one wait ALL day knowing they can't drink anything. Any way moving on. They removed the one screw with out any problems. It was not broken, bent or damaged in anyway so it turns out I am not crazy and to all those who worried like crazy you can CHILL. =) In just three short weeks I will be FREE from my walking boot! And as great as my doctor has been I can't wait to never go to his office again!See boring old screw!
Our nephew William Kade was born on the 26th @ 5:33pm. He weighed 7lbs 14oz and was 20in long! I can't wait to meet him!
My friend Crystal opened up a Cupcake & Ice Cream shop, so I have been busy helping her. We had a ton of fun decorating the shop. I have been dieing to try out chalkboard paint, and I convinced her to do a chalkboard Menu. It turned out AMAZING, and now I have to make Aubrey one for her room! So you all will have to stop in and have a treat with us!
Jeep Safari madness has begun around here. There are so many people in town, and after not getting out much all winter I am totally loving it! The weather has been sooo nice, we spend a lot of time outside and Aubrey is enjoying that a bunch.She has used her potty a few times, and is starting to let us know BEFORE she goes that she needs to so hopefully we will be diaper free in a few months!!Gotta love it when Daddy is in charge of potty training. Now she runs to the bathroom and says book book!
I totally had to share this. Mat and I decided to have breakfast for dinner on Friday night. So we made some waffles, bacon and eggs. And Mat had this horrid looking thing for dinner!!!
Oh my it looked so gross and he ate every single sugary bite!
Well Aubrey just woke up so I will end for now and hopefully I will get back on track with my regular posting schedule! Hope everyone has a great Easter!

Lazy........

Wow!! I have been so lazy with my blogging! Probably because since I ditched my crutches I have been on the go go go! The weather has been so nice in Moab the past few days that Aubrey and I have been outside most of the day. She LOVES to be outside, and it has been nice for me too. Being stuck inside and on the couch all winter was NOT fun. So wahoo for Spring and Summer can't get here soon enough. have been having so much fun sewing! Laura and I were thinking that we might get a booth at the Farmer's Market and she can sell her apple butter and I could sell, some of the stuff I have been making. But we haven't decided if we really have the time to do it yet.
I am going CRAZY waiting for Leilani or Justin to call and say baby William is on his way into the world! Pretty sure Leilani is getting impatient herself =)
I tried a recipe from OurBestBites.com this week, I made pizza. And let me tell you it was so DELICIOUS! Mat even liked it, and he is not that big a fan of homemade pizza crust. So yipee for us and our new found dinner!
Well I am going to end my novel and go sew something before Aubrey wakes up from her nap. Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the weather!

Car Seat Canopy

I have had this done for a few days but didn't want her to see it before I gave it to her. I found this amazing post. I so wish that I would have had one of these when Aubrey was little! I just used a blanket and it ALWAYS fell off or slipped. With Brittni's baby shower coming up, I decided it was perfect! I hope she enjoys it, I had a ton of fun making it!

Cayden's Blanket

So I woke up this morning, got started on the house work and laundry. Much to my surprise Aubrey was actually productively helpful , and we had the dishes done, the house clean, ALL the laundry done and put away by 10! Go us! So during Aubrey's nap I sat down in front of the sewing machine, and by the time Aubs woke up I was finished with this...
A blanket for Cayden that matches Cash's sleeping bag. I am excited for Cash's Birthday so I can give the boys their stuff. It is hard to believe that "Baby" Cash is almost a whole year old!! Man time flies when your having fun.

Oh and Aubrey went to the Dr. on Monday for her 18 months well child check up, she is healthy and growing perfectly! She is in the 50th percentile for her height, weight, and head circumference. She weighed in @ 23.5 lbs, she is 30 and 3/4 inches tall and her head is a whopping 18 inches! Our baby is growing so fast!

My second sewing project

So I finished my second sewing project today! I couldn't think of what I should make my nephew for his 1st Birthday and then I stumbled upon this. How stinking cute is that?? I decided that it looked easy enough to tackle and it was fairly simple! Daisy didn't sew up the sides of hers but I decided that he would probably stay warmer if it was sewn closed vs just closed with Velcro. I am going to start one for Cayden tomorrow. But with his I think that I will just use Velcro because I didn't buy enough fabric to make his big enough to last him a long time so when he grows out of it he can just use it as a blanket!Cute ya? I am having a ton of fun, and am excited for my next project!

Sew Mama Sew!!

Yay for space! Mat and I are totally loving having room to spread out again. I can't wait to get the rest of our things out of storage, mainly my SEWING machine, I have decided to try my hand at homemade gifts and being crafty! I had so much fun making pillows for all my niece and nephews for Christmas so I am going to expand my 'talents' if I can even call it that. I won't go into to much detail as to what is on the want to do list since some of you may be on the recipient list! =)
Aubrey is loving her new room! She has finally started sleeping all night long in her crib again! Yay no more contorted sleeping around her in MY bed! YAY me!
Two more weeks till I go to the Dr. again! Yes I am counting down the days to freedom. You would too if you were in my shoes. We are all looking forward to Spring and the warm weather, this back and forth junk is getting old! About the time it gets warm enough to melt the snow, we get another storm! Please send warmth and sunshine soon.
Looking for Daddy.
