I forgot to share that we finished the loft bed! In this picture, the girls are both actively moving stuff onto the underneath. As of today, it is a bunk bed with that bed frame pulled perpendicular underneath. The oldest wants to make it a true bunk bed so I guess that’s what we’ll be doing next! Then we can cover all those unsightly screw holes!

100% cotton otter for a baby to be! These make great baby shower gifts as they can be washed in the washer/dryer!

These were fun to make and will hopefully take the ouch out of bites and stings and booboos! One for my kids’ school, one for me, and three to my mom! Now I just need to make a purse to carry mine on!

We’ve known Belle Rose was broody for awhile (sorry I forgot to share earlier than just this week!). And looky! It must have been three weeks already because we have a baby! But the three other eggs were abandoned when the first chick escaped the upper coop. I tried to bring the eggs down into a separate brooding box but it was much too late. But look how cute the chick that did hatch was!

When your kids are sick and you’ve run out of potatoes for soup, it’s nice to just go harvest them fresh! This was all that was in one potato bag. Not a great harvest but was just what we needed to make hamburger soup!

We’ve had a heat advisory most of the week!

3 rounds of sanding to get these as smooth as possible and a good amount of wood filler. 6 hours yesterday! Today I did the primer. The goal is to have this up Sunday! I just need to find the time over the next few days to put two coats of the prettiest light pink!

Why finish the old projects when you can have the novelty of a new one! We all have ADHD in this house (I’m serious here). We’re a mess and we need help finishing tasks!
