Old-fashioned


Old-fashioned, originally uploaded by iamaprice(Amanda).

She wasn't crazy about this one, but I like the language of her hands. The first time I ever talked her, she was rubbing her thumb and ring finger together just like that. Maybe I make her nervous. Or bored. haha :)

I going! I going! Nite.

5 things more

1. Praise God, we have a van! It's wonderful to have more room.

2. Please keep Emmy in prayer. It's a good possibility that she's contracted Lyme disease from a tick bite. Her body is covered in bull's eye rashes. She'll be on antibiotics for three weeks and then we'll see. She is a trooper and swallows her capsules down no problem. She can't have the chewables or liquid because of her sensitivity to corn. We've got her on probiotics and yogurt to replace the good flora, no worries. They want to do a blood test next week to determine whether or not there are antibodies present in her system. She was sick for a couple of days with a fever and headache, but other than the rashes, she's all back to her normal self.

3. Sorry for the onslaught of photos. I get carried away.

4. I'm up late baking. We still have the cable running into the house, so I hooked up the laptop to keep me awake so I don't burn the house down. I can't believe I used to stay up this late routinely.

5. I feel quite disconnected from my online world now. I suppose it's good and bad.

Cheerio until next week!

She's swiiiiiingin' in the rain...

Well not really. The clouds were much less ominous sooc. I've been having a little bit of fun with colour. More to come!

She's been pulling herself up on everything for the past couple of weeks. Minor head contusions abound. :)

So a couple of Saturdays ago, I drove by a yard sale and this caught my eye. They were giving it away. For free. :D :D There's an old photo of my dad sitting in a pram very like this. I'm going to try to replicate it if Addie will bear with me.

He tried so hard to persuade her that it was safe for both of them to ride at the same time. She was not convinced.

Allow me to assist you, little lady.

When we stopped to look at the pram, my son made a beeline for this sad-looking thing which was also in the free pile. It's half duct tape and in dire need of hair implants, but it kept them busy for three afternoons straight. Totally worth it.

Miss Kitty


, originally uploaded by iamaprice(Amanda).

My Emmy girl is getting to be a much more co-operative model. This sweet dress is from the girls at www.scarletstitch.com (but of course! :)). As you can see, they've made their designs versitile enough to be worn through cooler seasons as well. I think this one would look really cute with knee socks and maybe even a belt for the trendy retro look.

Is that Ferris - with an F?

I know, it's Ferrars. I read!

Won't catch me on midway rides. Blaaaaah. I have a kagillian fair photos. I'll never get to them all.

Not quite a pony


Not quite a pony, originally uploaded by iamaprice(Amanda).

We took a long drive south for a county fair because their website advertised pony rides and we knew the kids would love that. As it turned out, there was nary a horse to be found on the entire grounds. Wha??? It was quite the let down. They enjoyed riding the bikes though, don't let the face fool ya. He's all business when he's taking on the world.

One of the highlights of the fair was the pig races.

This looks perfect on my laptop, which can only mean that it's a lovely radioactive colour on a normal monitor. Sigh.

This is the merlot Sunday Sash dress from www.scarletstitch.com. It would look quite fetching with knee socks. I must get some for her. Today is the final day of their fall sale. Sorry for the late notice! I usually try to get the word out earlier in the week, but I was away and didn't realize they were having a sale.

I'm going offline. My flickr expires in 2 days, so I'm not sure how many photos will still be visible.

Many thanks to all of you for your encouragement and support! I'll try to keep my blog alive with random posts from the library.p>

This dress looks so sweet with a cardigan too.

Another one from last night.

We had a fun little session for Scarlet Stitch this evening. The weather was fine and my girl was uncommonly pleased with the whole modeling idea. I've been wanting to get some better images for Tammy and Jody's site. This sweet wrap skirt and cap can be found at www.scarletstitch.com. Please excuse the sad product photography! :)
