...and this is how he spent most of the shower!

present time!

been waiting a LONG TIME to reveal this present!  baby mobile, complete with maggie's favorite rustic style. so glad she likes it!

dachshunds, maggie and brennan have two! 

maggie's dad can make ANYTHING out of wood, so thankfully, he did the hard part!

(this is grandma's nursery, can't wait for maggie's nursery reveal!)

love this one

and this one!

the whole project! i watched LOTS of movies this winter while making these puppies.

sisters and the momma! we had a great time.

 can't wait to meet him!

saturday.

ran the 5/3 riverbank run this a.m. with part of my fam! 

somehow, we all managed to finish the 10k! my longest race this far.

we were missing our other running buddy, though. she's got a bun in her oven due in about a month!

and right now, it's all i can do to sit on the couch.

making dinner tomorrow for some of the mommas in my life... have everything done except cutting this beast.

anyone else hate cutting up watermelon?

tired household! the end of third shift is near... thankfully!

present for my sis for mother's day. hope she does not read this until after tomorrow!

[tutorial here]

i've made quite a few of these... so easy and a big hit.

present for my momma. shams, to match the quilt i made her last mother's day.

(her idea, by the way).

here's the quilt. by far, my finest piece of work:

love this pattern, want to make myself one!

too many bad bananas sitting on my counter = bread!

happy [busy] weekend, all!
