Suck it up Sucky

This week. 

Oh this week. 

I went back to work this week. 

Had to leave this little chubster with friends...

And it sucked.

I nearly ran a couple stop signs driving to pick her up. 

Leaving your baby sucks... I could just kiss her chubby cheeks all day long. 

Seriously though...who WOULDN'T want to kiss those cheeks??

I wish I could be with her all the time.

But making enough money to pay for her insurance is important too....

sometimes it sucks to be responsible...

Also, sorry in advance for my lack of blogging in the coming weeks/months. Full time job + Full time mom + Excessive amounts of volunteering = Not a lot of time for crafting or anything else. 

Don't worry though...I'll be back. 

Oh My Hilarious

Please Please Watch this.... The Flightless Bird.... Almost peed my pants. 

You Made It LINK PARTY #2

Man, for an impromptu Link Party, you guys really delivered!! 

I loved checking out all your stuff (You know...check out your stuff... wink wink)

Here were a couple of my favorites...

This is a STENCIL... Yeah, I almost crapped my pants too. I had no idea paint could look so good. Jen at Life Crafts and Whatever has figured it out. Hats off to you Jen. I applaud your genius. 

The second one is from Mejia Mama. Her craft room redo is like a room of dreams...and not those dreams where you end up making out with your aunt (I'm not the only one right???). It's a crafter's dream. (The one where you fantasize about Mod Podge and Glue Guns)

I want to get in on the whole yarn wreath trend. Heck, I want to get in on the wreath trend. The only thing hanging on my door is a coupon for Jose's Taco Shop. Delicious? Yes. Trendy? No. Simplistically Sassy shows how to make this fantastic wreath...

And last but not least, I ALWAYS have something in my hair... you know. Glue, glitter, crap (Yeah, I'm sure it's been in there. I have a baby... there's crap everywhere). Maybe I should put something awesome in my hair. Like this bow by Sherri Amour. Love it!

And now onto the link up!

The Quilt....

It's nearly finished!!

I have an AMAZING friend in Utah who did the actual quilting on her long arm machine, and it looks fantastic.

All that's left to do is bind it...

I am seriously proud of this baby.
