My Messes


Pantry
Originally uploaded by pwinn.
I'm going to be brave here and post some "before" pictures of my pantry and bedroom closet.

I have been blessed with a very large pantry and normally I keep it neat but I got some new shelf paper and since I knew I would be replacing the old stuff, I wasn't very careful about keeping things organized. Today I will pull everything out and hopefully when everything goes back in, it will look alot better!

Now, my bedroom closet is used to store alot of my craft stuff...yarn, fabric, candle supplies etc. but along the way some other things got added! I can't even walk inside!

Lastly, here is a picture of my sewing area in my bedroom. It needs straightended up and I need to put something on the wall above the sewing machine.

Here are some pictures of my new niece. Isn't she beautiful?! Her name is Keira Elizabeth. She was born this past Sunday. My sister arrived at the hospital somewhere between 3:00-3:30pm and Keira was born at 5:15pm! Not bad for a first time mom! She weighs 6 lbs. 3 oz. and 19 inches long. She has red hair just like her mommy. :0)
Welcome to the world Keira!

Bookmarks

I was part of a bookmark exchange recently and here are the bookmarks I made and sent to my friend. The froggy and ladybug ones were for her daughters. Mine are coming from Australia so I'll be sure to share pictures when they arrive!

Birthday Fun

Our morning started bright and early. Emily usually likes sleeps in but she was up before 7:30am today! I did hear a rumor that Grace may have helped her out with that. ;0) She loved her new ballet outfit that I hung up on the dresser.

Grace drew this ballerina picture for her sister. She worked all of yesterday afternoon on it. Grace also let Emily wear her favorite dress to Vacation Bible School this morning.

Clarice over at Storybook Woods posted about the cutest dollhouse book recently. The story takes place in a Victorian dollhouse. It is Annabelle's birthday and her mom has hidden wrapped presents throughout the house that you have to try and find. We gave the book to Emily this morning and she found the first present in the kitchen hutch. She was so excited to discover that I had done the same thing in our own kitchen hutch! Throughout the day we would have her read a few pages and then find a gift hidden behind a vase, on the bookshelf, in the bathroom cupboard, etc, just like in the story!

Emily chose potato soup, corn on the cob and chicken drumsticks for dinner. The cake was vanilla with pink vanilla frosting. We had a wonderful day together and she has lots of new things to keep her busy! Happy Birthday Emily!
