Singularity

Yes, I am husbandless for a little over a month. He's enjoying above freezing weather with liquid precipitation, while we're hibernating and hiding from the abominable snowman here in Stuttgart. I'm super proud of myself for keeping it together for the past 6 days. Thanks to my child not being a total demon, and friends to keep me occupied, i've actually had a really nice week :) 

First things first, Weekly picture from last week:

This is what 6 yards of fabric will shed when you wash and dry it. Pretty, eh? 

Yes, I bought a ton of fabric last week at our local Craft Store's Super Bowl Sunday sale. So I took a break from knitting (ok I knitted one scarf) and made some cute stuff, as you shall see. 


Photo for this week:
This is from our Valentine's day shoot with Dominic and his "favorite girl" Bella. Anyone who has ever taken pictures of a three year old in a confined space will understand that taking pictures of two three year olds is just asking for trouble. I'm pretty sure that I blacked out at some point during the shoot. Thanks to Bella's mom (my favorite girl) directing, corralling and entertaining, we managed to get some really sweet pictures! 

Speaking of sweet, my husband buried Valentine's presents in his closet for us to find even though he's not here *cough* for the third year in a row! *cough* MMMmmmm... Wint o greeN! My favorite! 


As for cute stuff that I made.....
exhibit A: I made a library book tote for Dom's books (right) It happened to be waayyy too big for him. Well, He didn't seem to care that I was using it for myself for the past week until last night. "Dominic's bag is too BIG!" he said. How could I deny him a bag?! I made him a baby Dom-sized version, and he loves it! 


Exhibit B: We finished our jar of Nutella (which takes forever once you read the nutrition facts) and I admired how squat yet wide-mouthed the jar was. It's perfect for a tiny hand to hold! Guess who got a new snack jar?
Of course I couldn't leave it naked, so I made a velcro jar cozy. 
Ta daaaaaa!

Exhibit C: I've recently become a big fan of Invader, the artist. Not so much the arcade game... I'm not a gamer. Which, perhaps, makes me a bigger nerd. Anyway, I have been wanting something invader-ized for a while now, and I finally got around to it. Here's my new wallet! Cuteness!   

Here's to hoping for another happy week!
