Thrift Find – O Pioneers!

So me and my friend down the street had ourselves a little thriftventure last weekend.  It was kind of a momentous occasion because it’s only recently that it’s not a huge hassle to put two kids in the car together.  So while Avery was sleeping, the four of us sneaked out for a little thrifting.   Read the rest of this entry »

Feeling Festive

We have a little tree!  I’ll share with you the story of the tree.  First, I saw the pink tree with lights at Wal Mart.  That’s what got me thinking about this whole child’s tree business in the first place.  But it was twenty bucks.  Not breaking the bank but twenty bucks nonetheless.

The Stroll-O-Chair

I’m still barely making progress but still chipping away when I can (i.e. not watching television). I took down the makeshift blackout curtain arrangement that I had up in Avery’s room and pinned on the actual blackout liners that have been sitting on the steps for two weeks. Then… THEN I dug out the Stroll-O-Chair and set it up. Read the rest of this entry »

A Little Peek


Almost done. Only one more shelf to assemble. Then all I have left to to do is to organize the heaps of toys. You’d think that 12 giant bins would be enough… we shall see.

Junior Explorers?

Magnifying glasses?  Sometimes it’s better just not to ask.  Mostly because asking questions like that always turns their attention from whatever they’re busy doing back to me but also because… well, what on earth?   Read the rest of this entry »

The End Of Ugly Gliders

So Erin totally called me out on my empty promise to write up a tutorial for how to recover the cushions on a glider.  I kind of do that all the time.  But, I’m officially taking a break from my tie dye to write this.   Read the rest of this entry »

Iron-On Dottie Patches!

So when Shannon asked me to test drive her new patches for her I played it cool.  Sure, I said but what I was thinking was… O.M.G. YES! Of course I will!  Let me at ‘em!  Well, maybe I did say that but it’s only because honestly, who in their right mind would turn down an opportunity to have just a little more Sweet Pepita in their lives?  Honestly.   Read the rest of this entry »

Rocker Restyle

I finally finished this project.  You probably have one of these guys at home  It’s a great chair, probably relatively inexpensive and quite sturdy.  The problem with these guys is that they come in four shades of hideous.  Functional but a little too brown and scratchy.   Read the rest of this entry »

Treats For Everybody

We spent all morning visiting a preschool that we’re considering for next year.  Chase had a great time which, I suppose, is really what counts.  I was thoroughly exhausted, she wanted to stay and play.  After that we ran some errands Read the rest of this entry »

This Should Be An Easter Post

Easter was, after all, fantastic but first the end result of all my hard work.  I’m really happy with how it turned out.  Ben nearly almost totally ruined the floor but one whole night of hands and knees scrubbing has it looking more or less presentable.  I wish that Orange Glo business worked as well as the commercials would have you believe.
