All settled...sorta...

Well, we're all moved into our new house, and we have internet again, thank goodness! I was going through withdrawals!! LOL We still have many boxes to unpack but things are slowly getting done.
With the move, I haven't been stitching very much at all, and when I do have down time, I have been playing my Sims 3 game, or watching season 3 DVD boxset of "Private Practice" or reading. I started a new project. It is a birth sampler for my friend, who had a little boy exactly 3 weeks before I had Alyssa. It has a little monkey on it. I got the pattern from a magazine, and it actually had a bunch of animals but I thought it would take too long to do the entire thing, and since my friend always has her son in monkeys (monkey clothes, monkey blankets, monkey bibs, monkey nursery stuff) I thought I'd just go with the cute monkey hanging from a branch and his birth info. That way maybe I will have a finish by the time the kid turns 6 months old.

I am hoping that maybe tonight after the dinner dishes are cleared up, to maybe pull out some stitching, maybe work more on the birth sampler, or The Abby, I am not too sure.


Well,I will leave you with an adorable photo of Alyssa in her little Easter dress! I need to take one without her pacifier, but the pacie sorta matches her outfit! So it works!! Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend!

Cute outfit but the angel wearing it is cuter! Glad you are in your house and getting settled.

Glad to hear your move went smoothly and that you are back online! I have moved around so much in my life that it's like second nature anymore, but I still remember how much hard work it is too. Alyssa is a cutie pie!!
