The Ants Go Marching.

Just another little morsel from Addikins. Emma and I were almost crying we were laughing so hard at her last night.

The setup: Daddy is away this week at a Leadership Training thing where they are doing a mock business deal. We hopped on Skype last night so the girls could say goodnight and download with him for a few minutes.

M: So how is the training going?
J: Good. Except my “job” that I was given is finance.
M: Erm. That isn’t very fun.
A: Daddy you first have to get an ant farm, like Max’s. (We had just watched Max & Ruby where he has an ant farm.)
J: Yeah? Ok.
A: Yeah, if you have a farm then you can find ants.

Finance. Find ants.

Believe it or not, Emma got Addie’s word play before anyone else. But once we all got it…we couldn’t stop laughing about it. I’ve been smiling about it all day.

Crafty Tuesday

Good crafty morning to you all. I have some goodies to share, but I need to be quick because I have a whole pile of sewing that is beckoning me from the craftroom.

I made these tees for my three nieces who are about to all be big sisters (again!) as they wait for their new little brother or sister. The ETA on Baby is Monday the 23rd, less than a week! Eeeee!! We are all so excited to meet the newest little one!

And then I made a few little onesies for the babe, too. My favorite is the lower left one (with the bird, of course). I expect many photos of these until I can get there and get my hands on that baby. Mmmm…I can already smell the “baby smell.”

And I have been trying out some different tags and packaging for our stuff when we sell it.

And we have finalized the logo. We simplified it a little bit – we’ll use the border/bracket for “big” logos, but when we need a smaller, simpler logo – we’ll take it off. The blue is still not quite right on the web version here, but we are definitely going with the cleaner, more modern font. I like it and think it will work nicely.

Now I just need to go sew some stuff to stick labels and pricetags on! I have finished six or seven of the pillowcase dresses, but I don’t have a one of them photographed. I’ll do a whole dress edition next week, so stay tuned.

Happy Crafting!
