I usually try to write Crafty Tuesday on Monday night to post for Tuesday morning, but, uh…last night? I had a “mommy playdate” and well…it was past my bedtime when I got home and I’m moving a little slowly this morning. But it was incredibly fun and so very needed. (Thank you so much, B!!)<\/p>\n

So here we are. It is Tuesday and I have a few things to show, I guess a few things I can<\/strong><\/em> show. (Look away if you want to be surprised Meesh!)<\/p>\n

I have been finishing capes and I think….they are done! Until we get back from the holidays. Then I have three to make that first week in January for birthday gifts. But the ones that are needed right now – they are done.<\/p>\n

For Gabella Ella –

And Madey Mo –

I finished Emma Grace’s finally, too. Poor thing she has only been asking for one since I did Addie’s for her birthday…in September! But Em’s cape always got put on the end of the list. I haven’t photo’d it because she has been around and is probably going to read this over my shoulder, so…we’ll get it after Christmas.<\/p>\n

I also finished some burp rags for Mav. They seem a little big – but I backed them in terrycloth, so if nothing else they can use them as pee-pads. (Like those ones they have for puppies?) It seems that the little guy likes to “shower” the kind people who are holding him.

And, hey! I think I can put up our Christmas card now, I believe they are all delivered.
\nThis was the front. It reads “Brown paper packages tied up with string…”

And the inside. “…wishing you all of your favorite things this Christmas season.”

I wish I could take credit for it – but a friend of mine told me about doing this one year and when she said the “brown paper packages” part I was instantly hooked. The Sound of Music<\/em> is my favorite movie and I knew that I wanted to do something with that for our card. Don’t let the very simple design fool you though, they were kind of a pain to put together. But I like how they turned out. And I adore<\/strong><\/em> the photo taken by our lovely and very talented friend, Rose<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Okay, what about you? Can you take a few minutes to share something? I’ll be back later to peruse, right now I have to go finish three more gifts!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
