laughter and gifts

I had to post a link to Franklin Habit. I couldn't stop laughing.

And another super sweet post from Vicki that has a couple of give-aways at the end. Thank you so much for sharing Maddy's tea party!

So little and yet so much is going on. I joined a potholder and a square swap on ravelry and love them. I have 5 new potholders and 12 squares to sew together for a blanket just for me. And since the square group I am in does little games...well I won the last one and got two skeins of pretty dark purple yarn...I think I know what I will be using to sew my squares together.
Erik is growing like crazy and so is Harmony. Harmony's words are much more distinct and she loves telling you all that has gone on for the day if you let her. Melodie is maintaining, but decidedly trying to eat us out of house and home without gaining an ounce. The thrift shop close by is getting bags of clothes that are too small for the three of them. Erik is so long in the body he needs 12 month size clothes already. I'm thinking I'm going to need to start actually sewing pants to fit him without being to short or falling off.

4 little things that make my day:

1. Melodie bringing me a flower every time she goes out to visit gma or play with friends
2. Harmony's huge smiles and 'mama' when I even just come out of the bathroom.
3. Erik's smiles and giggles as he bounces himself on our lap.
4. The hugs I get when Michael comes home from work

4 little things

1. Huge smiles and hugs when I get home.
2. The seemingly never ending rose blooms.
3. Shopping at the farmers market.
4. Making some little things for home and a neighbor.

P.S. Stop by here for a cool give away from here (the newest issue is now live).
