Pink and Green

The problem with crocheting baby blankets is that I'm always torn of whether to sell them or not. They sometimes sit on my lap being worked on for a month or so. I get attached. I LOVE this one, it screams spring and it makes me so happy, even though it was so simple to make. Plus, the colors were my Mimi's favorite. My sister thinks I should hold on to it...until one of us has a girl. Watch I'll save it and neither of us will ever have girls. It's almost big enough to use as a throw.

What do you think? Keep or Sell?

My Boys Monday - Two by Two

Got a chance to applique some shirts for the boys today. I LOVE this print all the animals are so fantastic. I really had a hard time choosing which ones to do. I went with elephants for Munch. Grasshoppers for Nox. And then cause I couldn't help myself I went made two more. A size 3-6 month Pelican. And two adorable walruses on a 6-9 month. The two extras will make their way to The Enchanted Artist soon. I'm still trying to figure out shipping details, but if you are interested in purchasing let me know by email or messaging me on Facebook. I'm hoping to be back tomorrow with more.

Sweet...exactly where I was last week. Love these plateaus. I haven't given up though. Just need to push past it. I made sure to bump up my protien intake and it worked! I'm not as hungry as I was, still hungry, but at least not starving.

I felt super sick on Tuesday and I missed one of my running days this week, cause we went over to my mother's. I actually considered doing week 2 of C25K over. Then I realized how silly that was (at the last second, I was on my way out the door) and I sucked it up and did Week 3 Day 1. It seems crazy, but it actually seemed easier than all of Week 2 was.

I saw the tutorial for this sign over at WhipperBerry. Don't know if I'll make it, but I love the quote. It's just something I need to remember.

Speaking of excuses; I've got zero as to why my blog hasn't had any posts in a week. Pathetic. I PROMISE to be better this week.

Finally got another recipe page together!! My hubby likes to cook up this meal in double batches, cause it's SO yummy. Here is the recipe and nutritional info my hubby entered on Spark People: HERE. And here is my page: Created using: Blog Freebie Template 8.4.2010 by Jennamy and Wimsy kit by Three Paper Peonies

Hope everyone has a happy and healthy weekend!

No pounds lost this week. Boo. BUT I kept going with C25K....I even was a brave girl and started week 2 instead of redoing week 1 like I was thinking about doing. If I had known how hungry running would make me, I'm not sure I would have ever started. I'm STARVING. Spark People is awesome and tells me if I'm burning too many calories and not eating enough...but they are mean and haven't told me that since I started running.
Running exhausts me and I can't breath and I'm sore....did I mention I'm STARVING? At the same time I really love it, which is slightly confusing. Why do I like to torture myself? A friend of mine tried to talk me into doing a 5k next month, but I'm a serious wimp. I run at night...I tell myself it's because that's the only time I can run, the boys are asleep and the hubby is home. The truth is I could do it when the hubby gets home from work, when it's light outside...the boys don't care if I'm there. The truth is, I don't want anyone to actually see me run. Which is probably the same reason I don't want to join a 5k. Cause I'm a freaking wimp.
Anyway, I have a few recipes to share, but they will have to wait, cause all I really want to do is jump into bed and stay there...maybe have someone bring me a mountain of chocolate ice cream and a steak.

Funky Finds Spring Fling

Saturday we went to the Funky Finds Spring Fling. I love going and looking at all the amazing crafts and art that people come up with. Here are some of the goodies I came home with.

A t-shirt for Monkey Munch from XYFactory:

Onesie for Nox from Take Flight Boutique:
Spidey for Monkey Munch from Pegged: (She also does customized peg families....want...)
Pretty fabric necklace and matching felted earrings for me from Beat Art:
After enjoying the crafts we went next door to the Flea Market.

I was really tempted to buy this game, just for the fun box:
Monkey really loved this globe. It's super fun to spin :o)
AND I couldn't pass up these patterns for a dollar each. I know I don't have a girl, but I totally couldn't pass on Rainbow Bright.
And so ended an awesome crafty day.
