Hello

I have been missing my camera.  It was hijacked by my dear husband to document the construction going on at the Fifth Element.  He still has yet to return it after much pestering.  I will be posting soon, promise.  Looks like a recon mission into the construction zone is needed.  On the flip side, the restaurant is moving along, the cement has been poured and now the guys are framing the walls.  It is actually tacking shape.  Tile shopping tomorrow with the fam.  Freja loves these trips.

A unique flower.

I wanted to share this with everyone as I thought it was so intriguing.  You rarely see a twin flower.  This is a Gerber daisy I gave my mom a while back.  Low and behold a twin appeared.

Freja's first boat ride.

Freja now has her sea legs.  

We took her on her first sail boat ride.  She loved the salt air and the wind in her face.  It was a fabulous day and I hope to go agian soon.  If you are in Newport, RI check out the Madeleine chartered sailboat.  You are sure to have a magnificent time with a fabulous crew and gorgeous views.

Singing away.

BOYS Boys Boys

I was asked to make some boy bibs.  I have been so girl oriented so it was fun to be boyish.  I wanted to use my dad's retired brooks brothers shirt.  I positioned it so the pocket would be centered, a perfect hideaway for a lovie.  The others are perfect for a day at the beach or yacht club and who wouldn't want to be an army pirate!!!!  Hope the little guy likes them.

Bring the Cup to Newport.

Oh I, among with many would love to the America's Cup back in Newport.  Unfortunately, Newport has lost the bid. (breaking news) We went down to view the cup and for some support.  What a magnificent piece of work.  The silversmithing is astonishing.  It is hard to find people with those skills today.  Simply it is a well guarded beautiful object.

Mommy's Time Out.

A good friend, whom is also a new Mama came over for a cookout with her husband and little boy.  MMM, fish tacos.  He is just the cutest and Freja's first boyfriend.  What a cougar she is, a younger man by two months.  Well needless to say, it was a fabulous night and we laughed as we popped open the bottle.  My friend saw the label and had to get it.  Not the best tasting, not awful, but a great gift and a sure smile on any Mommy's face.  I think I will be using this saying from now on.

Back to business.

Currently, I am working on finishing bags, I have three bibs in the works for special order and the mommy bracelet orders are lining up.  YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!!!! Busy Mama especially since I am working four nights a week on top of all this.  Oh my.

The white bag used to be a skirt that I wore often in college.  I haven't worn it in years, and now the hips don't fit in it.

My dad gave me a few of his gently worn dress shirts and they are going to make to awesome bibs, I must admit.  I placed it so the front pocket is a part of the bib.  Perfect for a small toy or a secret stash of puffs. 

I was wondering if anyone has any gently used men's dress shirts they would like to donate?  Perhaps, you will be replenishing your man's stock on father's day and will be discarding a few.  If you have any please send me a message so we can arrange a deal.  Thank you so so so much.
