To all my lovely readers

Happy summer. I can't keep apologizing for my irregular post. My guess is most of you are enjoying summer. I have been off on disability for my back. My older kids have been out of school since last week. We joined the YMCA where I have been swimming daily or at least sitting sitting in filtered shade at the advice of my Spine Doctor. So far not much improvement but good things come to those to wait. My kids are loving it. I have been looming in the morning since I can while laying on my back. Lots of hats, baby blankets, scarves and purses to come to my Etsy shop if you want to see. Some sewing machine sewing, those projects take little longer since sitting is no fun. I am hoping to post some bags and sun hats to celebrate summer.

As far as the kids.......... Tanner, Marysa and Joey have been crafting key chains, friendship bracelets, and soap. Sonny and Declan are still going to daycare since watching them all day makes my pain increase and they have more fun with all the kids.

For your silly steak... Here are some great pics of table dancing before table dancing is not so cute.

Oh and one more thing. E-mail me your breastfeeding stories. I'd like my contributions to combat  the bad press Mama's have been getting for nursing their babies in public to be my blog All of July!!!! I'll be posting as many as I can,telling my own stories and a Shout Out/Giveaway  to a really cool Lactavist inspired shop Mama Pear Designs. I can't wait.

Thanks again for being a friend. I can't wait to hear from all of you.

This is why I've been MIA

I've mentioned I opened Marysa Jane, and I have been working as much as I can making hats, and blankets and tushy wipes. My latest lovely is tutus. My kids--boys and girls both--have been swooning over them. I bet yours will too.

Some are up in the store at MarysaJane.com already and some will go up tomorrow. I personally LOVE them. They are a lot of fun to make and to watch how happy the kids are trying them on. I can only imagine how fun it is playing in them since I'm not tiny enough for that anymore!

Oh and I've been scouting items to sell from others, some of whom you may or may not know: Earthy Chrunchy Mama, Marine Parents {the shop}, Lindsey's Family Reviews and Giveaways, Mama Pear Designs will be appearing in the next few weeks/months. I am excited to be selling Bare Foot Books and Tammie Handmade Flower clips. I have my fingers crossed that I'll soon have Happy Heinys, my favorite cloth diapers of all time.

Anyhow, I'm very excited! I hope all of you will take a minute to look at it, tell a friend, register in the shop and like my Facebook page. Thanks!!!
