The Beast

THIS IS FOR YOU DAVIS!

I'm working on a toy for Lyla. I'm calling it the Beast for now because it is really taking up some time. The most complex sewing project I've ever done and I am obsessed with it. I can't do anything else (except for of course, change diapers, feed the kids, an occasional game of Candy Land and force Jeff to eat yet another hot dog for dinner). I haven't even showered in two whole days. Gross, I know. Just look at the mess I have made...

(my craft area... that thing hanging from the chandelier is totally unrelated to my current project)

and next door to my craft area... the playroom... looks nice doesn't it. Don't you love how they built a ramp out of the rug??

I'm almost done. I would post a picture of my project.. but my friend (Ann:)) will be getting one for her little boy and I don't want to ruin the surprise!

On a side note...

Brodey is mad at me because I wouldn't let him eat a vitamin that somehow managed to get stuck to his little butt cheek. I can't even begin to imagine how that happened.

Lyla will be 5 months old tomorrow.. and it has come to my attention that she will never be able roll over, sit up, crawl, or any such thing if I don't start putting her down more. So I'm going to think about it. Maybe next week. ;)

Brock has been spending lots of time in time-out for yelling at me. Yesterday, when I let him out I asked him what he needed to say to me, expecting him to apologize for yelling. Instead he says, "I'm sorry you yelled at me mom. I forgive you."

Anyhow. I probably should be embarrassed about the mess, and the poor personal hygiene, but I'm not! This is real life. Back to my project. ;)
