Busy

Yes, life has been busy around here!  

I've been busy filling Christmas orders...

 

Spending time with Dad and the girls while Aaron was gone on business...

(for some reason it's always been quite the task to get my Dad to smile for pictures...can you tell?!)

Cleaning "lipstick" (a.k.a. blue marker) off Clara's face...

 

and getting things ready for Christmas.  

Ahhhh....Christmas.  It is right around the corner!  And so is the arrival of our little one.  I closed my shop up over the weekend for this very reason.  As a mother of young children,it is very important for me to keep my life balanced, especially at this time.  I mean, I'M HAVING A BABY IN LESS THAN 4 WEEKS!  Wow.  I cannot believe it.  I cannot wait.  I'm so looking forward to meeting her.  A new little daughter to add to our growing family.  I feel blessed.

So, now you know why I haven't blogged for a while.  

But I'm very excited about some things I've been working on lately...I'm making most of the girls' presents for Christmas this year.  I'll have to share a few of them with you later this week.  Let's just say I've been keeping my sewing machine busy, and the wood-burner nice and hot.  Oh, I love this time of the year!

I hope you are all well!

xo,

Pamela

p.s.  check out this pic of Clara and Avery while scouting out our Christmas tree.  Is that the peace sign I see??  Where did she learn that??  (Actually, I think she learned it from Naomi--gotta love that one, right, Yumiko??)  

 

Life is good.

This made me happy! Glad to hear that life is good. The girls look so sweet, and I have a serious soft spot for your dad. I love it that he doesn't smile in pictures! Hope you're not feeling too stressed about everything that's going on. And I'm getting pretty anxious about January 1st myself! Good luck and God bless.

I have a soft spot for him, too! :)

I'm not feeling too stressed out...but that is the main reason I closed my shop early this year. Last year it was crazy busy (which I was very grateful for!) but it took time away from some of the important things that I wanted to do during the month of December--I learned to control that this year! :)

The girls are getting cuter and cuter with every post. And wow - less than 4 weeks?!!!! Oh my gosh, where has all the time gone???!!!!

I love Clara's peace sign!!! Actually it might be "age 2" since Naomi changed her sign to three fingers! :) Maybe Clara is really Japanese!! :)

Your girls are sooooooooo cute! :)
