I am a mommy!!

It has finally hit home that I am mommy... to a beautiful little baby girl named Addison Grace. She is the sweetest, happiest little person I have ever seen. She is my world:) Happy 3 months Addie, you are getting so big!!!!

Summer days.....

Are best for gardening! Our garden is flourishing and I am rather proud of it since hubby and I spend many hours tending to it, so I thought I would show all of you what is growing in our container garden currently = )

Yummy plump blackberries!

Bluebettes on the blueberry bush

Pepper plants... growing bigger and bigger each day

Cherry tomatoes..can't wait to put them in a salad;)

and much much more! At the moment these are the only ones with produce on them;)

Amigurumi Swap #1 Package I received!

Squares! Squares! Squares!

Lately I have been crocheting like a mad woman. I have been using many different patterns and yarns to create 12" squares for the MOM's (members of the month) of the baker's dozen group on ravelry.com. I fell behind because my life got pretty hectic with getting married, obtaining a new job(a pre-k teaching position), and moving into our "new house" and all. However, I am proud to say that despite my rheumatoid condition, and all of the other factors. With strong will and perserverance  I managed to catch up and carry through with making and distributing my squares to the gals in the group.YAY me =)

Stitch Marker Swap

Button Swap!! So much fun

These are pictures from a round robin style button swap I am participating in on Ravelry.com. I LOVE...no better yet I am addicted to unique buttons especially the ones on the larger scale. I had alot of fun exchanging and puting in new buttons from my own collection. If you are into buttons like I am, then I highly recommend that you give this swap a try ; )

A little crocheted Pouch I made :)

I made this little pouch to hold a present that I made for a friend as she was feeling a little sad and I wanted to lift her spirits...I used bright buttercup yellow embellishments as to me this is a happy color:)

This is what the back of the pouch looks like
