Wandering Wednesdays

While reading a few of my favorite blogs, I came across GardenMama's newest photo challenge: take a walk and photograph where you go! Since I'm not wandering too far these days, today's walk took us over to our friend Heidi's house, where she and her children were coloring their sidewalk with chalk.

Gone Fishin'

While waiting for labor to begin, I've gone a bit overboard crafting. Today, I finally finished the fishing game for Aoife. I sewed little felt fish with washers in their mouths, then made a fishing pole with a magnetic hook. The "pond" is a piece of silk I dyed with food coloring. I think I will make a longer "river" with more silk, then Aoife can practice fly fishing! Time to go finish the napping sign for the door and then stencil some onesies...

on getting things, and getting things going...

I finally got that glider I've been wanting. Yay for Craigslist! I finally started that knitting project for the baby I thought I'd start back in November. Yay for procrastination! Maybe now that baby will finally start labor? Yay for baby!!

One teeny-tiny carrot!

Our garden has had a rough time this year. The lack of sun, the slug-fest that was apparently held at our place this year, and then the heat wave did not help matters one bit. Truth be told, neither did the fact that I just didn't give the garden much TLC this year (hey, I'm about to give birth, I've got a few things on my mind). We have enjoyed a couple strawberries, plenty of peas, and now, finally, this itty-bitty carrot! Here's hoping for a better harvest next year and to growing a healthy baby this year!!
