This poor girl. Whenever she gets sick, her eyes get super swollen, red, and watery. There is no hiding it. Fevers, coughing, and sore muscles. Hopefully it goes away soon!
I went in to check on Treyton the other night and this is what I found:
There is barely any room for him on the bed!
While Treyton was at school, Jayci and I were playing in the front room. In walks Griffey wearing this:
I just started laughing because he looked so cute!
Later that day, I was in the front room again with Griff. Jayci came out and said something but I wasn't really listening, so I just said, 'okay'. Well, TEN minutes later I went to find out what Trey was up to, only to walk into his room to find this:
Apparently Jayci had come out and told me that Treyton was stuck. He had been waiting there, crying, for over ten minutes for me to come help him!! Being the mean mom that I am, I just started busting up laughing. He was trying NOT to laugh through his tears, hence the weird face.
And these are a few of the things I have done lately: I have had to be a lot more creative and budget savvy than before...so I haven't done nearly as much or as great of things.
Jayci wanted tulle around her bed to make it like a princess.
She needed somewhere to put her bows since I left her other bow board in VA. I had the frame around already and the ribbon. I just painted it green to match her bedding and the ribbon went perfectly!
I decided to try my hand out at an elaborate bow. I wouldn't put this on Jayci just for every day, but maybe for a birthday or something special. It is gigantic, but I love it!
And lastly is the quilt I made for an online auction in a week or so for the Millers. I am in LOVE with it. Seriously. It broke my heart a little to mail it out, but it is for a GREAT cause and I couldn't have been happier to donate it.
I will post more about the auction as it comes closer. There should be some great stuff to bid on and it will all go to helping baby Seth and the Miller family. If you haven't read Jamie's story already, do it. You'll cry. I promise. Against all odds, Seth is such a little fighter and it will make you 100 times more grateful when your child has a runny nose or fever but is home safe with you.

I didn't know you quilted so well ... very impressive! With all your home making skills, you would've been an incredible pioneer woman. The story of Trey getting stuck is hilarious! Your kids are so much fun. Miss you guys.
Oh my talented and amazing friend! I wish we lived next door again so you could rub your creative skills off on me!
Hope your bambinos feel better. They are growing so fast and still as cute as ever!
This post was so funny! Looks like Griffin is getting quite the personality too, lol. That quilt is adorable too, you always do a great job on all your crafts and sewing projects. I'm sure that quilt will be so appreciated!
Poor Jayci! Hope she's feeling better. You are so talented! Love the quilt!
I love how your house is coming together! That blue in your boys room is so cute. I am definitely going to make a bow picture frame thing for my girls when we move....I will probably be calling you for step by step instruction. (crafting for dummies:)
