Stripes

Damian is generally really supportive and encouraging about my random sewing projects…until I came up with the great idea to use some leftover fabric to make matching clothes for the kids.

When I asked whether he thought I should have the stripes on both Ellie’s top and pants vertical or one vertical and one horizontal, he said “I don’t think it really matters as long as you have a dancing penguin to go with them.”  It’s possible that he had a point.

Oh well.  They make really cute pajamas. ;-)

Keeping cool

Baby food is for babies!

At the ripe old age of 10 months, Keanan has decided that he's much too old for pureed food and will pretty much only eat finger food. I'm hopeful that this is a phase and he'll go back to the purees (since it's so much easier to get veggies in him that way), but it's hard to to be too worried about it when he's so darn pleased with himself and his "big boy food."
