Tainted Love.

Over the last couple of weeks Moses has started to come up to me randomly and pucker up towards me for a kiss....how cute right? He must love his mommy so much that he spontaneously MUST kiss her at that moment. :) Awww....what a cute, sweet boy. Not quite. Today I was sewing at the dining room table and Moses was in the living room playing with his toys when he comes to me for a smooch...I then realize that he had just gotten into the DVD drawer of the armoir. Coincidence right? A few minutes later he runs in for another kissee...right after he changed the inputs on the TV. Turns out more times than not...or at least WAY more than I was aware, he was coming to kiss me after he was being naughty...and he knew he was being naughty...and is smart enough to know that kissing me makes it hard to be mad at him. Tainted love. Stinker.
So this weekend was Boring...with capital B. Mostly because Doug was working and because I was trying to come up with a doll pattern...and it wasn't working. The first one looked like a voodoo doll...the second, well let's just say she won't be appearing in the shop. She is off to a three year old who will look past her imperfections and dumpy head. So I reverted to the book that the ever so sweet Scottie had sent me and made Jenny. At first I did not like Jenny when she was sewn and stuffed...but the more I accessorized her, the more I loved her. Isn't she precious? I also found myself a little unhappy about the display above my bed...it was a little cold-it needed a little something so...I wiped on some robins egg blue paint and wiped it off again...leaving it in the cracks and crevices, added a sweet nest and a bird I made from the fabric swatches I got for this room initially. I think the result is much warmer...and more of what I was trying to achieve. These are my favorite new tags!! I am always trying to come up with ways to use my paper scraps...I hate throwing away anything bigger than a quarter...weird, I know but I think these are just adorable!! Perfect for any occasion!!
I also came up with these for Mother's day!...A cute ribboned up, stuffed heart that says "Mom" on the front and "love you" on the back...if you need it...it is in the shop.
And last but not least, Moses shoe fetish continues. He cannot be without at least one of his crocs. Here he is jumping one shoed. I can't remember the last time he napped without at least one shoe on.
