My Best Creation

First photos are over on her blog (guess who was right about gender?? lol).  More details to follow, but let’s just say everything was fast & furious!

T-91 Days

We are exactly 3 months away from Kit’s estimated arrival!  (aka, it’s getting’ real)

Apparently baby bumps elicit all sorts of random comments from total strangers.  I didn’t really appreciate this phenom until about a month ago.

I inevitably am asked what the baby’s sex is, and can pretty effectively kill the conversation with [...]

All Quiet on the Homefront

Turning 30 wasn’t as exciting as my bloggy absence would you leave you to believe; we had dinner with a few good friends, and that was the extent of the celebration.

But the Fox house has been busy!  Last week, we had our floating stairs replaced.  We now have completely enclosed stairs, with a [...]

10,957 Days

It doesn’t feel quite as unnerving to turn 30 as I had imagined it would a year ago.  And when I look back on my goals for my 30th year of life, I didn’t do too bad.  Also, not specifically mentioned on the list but that happened nonetheless was that Steve and I sort [...]

Dueling Blogs

Steve and I are both blogging on Kit’s blog.  He did all of the initial setup, the stuff you can’t actually see.  I did a lot of the initial design setup (template, header, colors).  And now we’re sharing the writing space.  Because it is shared space, he’s interested in what I’m drafting up – [...]

He Paints, I Sew

Perhaps I’ve mentioned this before, but I’m not terribly helpful with home improvement projects.   I don’t tend to have the patience necessary to meet Steve’s standards.  All of this is fine, we’ve both accepted this fact and I will help when necessary.  But I have to admit that I feel a little less guilty [...]

Baby Kit

Thanks for the congrats, well wishes, and excitement about Baby Kit (a baby fox is called a kit, so that what’s we’re going with).  We took the image of the Rebus puzzle (thank you, google, for helping us figure out what that was called) and turned it into a jigsaw puzzle that we made [...]

Christmas in a Nutshell

In short, Steve and I won the prize for the best Christmas gift that was given.

And here’s why:

30 Before 30 – Q3 Update

The 6 month update of my 30 Before 30 list:

Visit a National Park – I’m thinking this one. Finish the bedroom quilt. TOP IS DONE! And I sent it to Margaret for quilting, now just to hand-stitch the binding to the back.  Here’s a sneak peak of the quilting: Remodel my doll [...]

Bermuda

So…vacation…took a week to process/catch up/decompress/figure out the correct time zone.

Word to the wise: don’t do Daylight saving, then change 3 time zones in the same day.

And can we talk about the weather?  It ran the full spectrum, and I was (of course) somewhat unprepared.  Imagine my surprise when I stumbled off [...]
