I haven't managed to get much sewing done lately. I have been busy and am completely worn out by the time I get the kiddos in bed.
This little stack of American Jane is from my two most recent WIPs...both of which long to be finished.
I have managed, however, to can and freeze peaches, dehydrate prunes, peaches and apples, and make sauce from the above named fruits for homemade fruit leather.
I'm thinking I might add some raspberries, bananas or oj for variety. I don't know, we'll see.
I have also been baking up this sweet little bun...
The image is of its head (just so you have an idea of what you are looking at). If you were to draw a line horizontally through the middle and look at the bottom half, the large white roundish area in the center is its cheek; with the nose and mouth just to the left.
Just above this imaginary line are its fists covering its eyes.
Can you see...anything but mooshed black and white? It took me a minute.
I refer to it as an..."it" because we are not sure what this sweet little bundle will be. I love a good baby gender surprise!
I tell you, each pregnancy gets a little more painful pre- and post-delivery. I don't look forward to the nursing pains! Also, I have been enjoying the company of Braxton Hicks since about 24 weeks. This is the first time I have had regular contractions so early. They are just beginning to be painful. Not labor-painful but enough that I have found myself labor-breathing through some of them.
Since morning sickness has left me I have been surprised at how quickly it has all gone. And I only have seven weeks left...possibly less because I have only had one baby wait full term.
So much to get done in such a short time!
Better get crackin'!!
