a belated post. there's a theme going here...

oops... again.

Actually, I've thought over and over again that I never posted to share about the gender reveal party... here's why I haven't: My readers are also my Facebook friends. You know I'm having a girl! You know her name is Poppy James Lough. You know I am beside myself excited. To update my status on Facebook makes updating my blog seem a little redundant. But, I'll do it anyway... because I was scolded by 2 of my 6 readers this weekend at my friend's wedding.

When we cut into that cake and found out we were having a girl, I could just see Jake crunching numbers in his head.. car, wedding, college tuition, sorority dues, clothes.. etc. Luckily, while he's been crunching numbers, Cadence has been tossing tons and tons of baby girl clothes my way. My friend, Sarah Beth, has been on a little Poppy shopping spree. I'm really hoping she doesn't get in trouble with her husband! :) But I'm not dumb enough to tell her to stop! Poppy is now a proud owner of her first Lilly Pulitzer dress.  Not many fetuses the size of a banana can say that!

I'm 90% done with Poppy's nursery. I have a few more prints to order from Etsy and a rocking chair to find and paint, finish sewing the mobile and we'll be all set (see, that was my facebook status yesterday..). I was putting things away last week, and came across an old friend, Molly. She's looking a little rough around the edges. I guess anyone would after being stuffed in a box in an attic for 15+ years. I foresee a trip to the doll hospital in her future.

Also, football season is in full swing! yay for Saturdays! boo for Sundays!  i just can't get into pro football. Instead of griping and whining every Sunday afternoon, I have decided to turn Sunday afternoons into crafting opportunities. This Sunday I will make...



...that's if i can get my act together and get to pensacola to buy burlap fabric.

if not..




tata for now,
