Kountry Krafts

I think Andy would classify this as Kountry Krafts, but I think they're cute anyways.
This weekend is "cookie day" with my mom & sisters at my parents' house, and I thought it would be fun to make everyone Christmas-y aprons. I got the idea Friday night and I finished them up last night since House was a re-run (lame!). I'm going to make a tiny one for our 1.5 year old niece, and an even tinier one for our one-month old niece, just so they don't feel left out ;)

In other Christmas preparation news, I took a break from wrapping presents, but Lola took that has her cue to snack on the bows. She looks a tad guilty, but not guilty enough to stop what she was doing. After I took this photo she went back to snacking on the shiny cellophane. She'll eat anything, just like her daddy.


We don't actually call each other "mommy & daddy" to the dog, but it was a nice transition to my next topic, which this image seems appropriate:


Yes, it is one of my favorite CD's (and also the first CD that I ever owned), but is also symbolical right now. I have a baby "In Utero".

It's true! We're very very excited--only 25 weeks to go!

Snow Problem!

Wanna keep the snow away? Buy a snowblower!
2 weekends ago we got 5 or 6 inches of snow, so our lovely Saturday was spent shoveling. 2 days later we got another 3 inches. They were predicting that we were going to get 2 more inches the next day, and another 5 or 6 inches last weekend. So.......we bought a snowblower. Since it found its way into our garage, do you thing we've gotten a single snowflake? NOPE! It's like in the summertime when there is a pesky fly buzzing around your head, and the second you get the fly swatter out he vanishes.

I'm sure we'll need to use it eventually, and when we get the next big snowstorm, we'll be prepared. Yippee!
