Last day of February....

and where has it gone? honestly this month has just flown by.. I feel like I have missed most of it.. We've had a great few days with Chaya.. time to take her back to her mom today.. We've been talking about how she's outgrown most of the toys in her basket for awhile now.. so I spent saturday afternoon washing and combing manes and tails on "My little Ponies"...lol It's funny how every time we bring out a new batch of the kids old toys for her.. how many memories come with them... doesn't seem that long ago since it was a regular thing to be doing..They were a big hit.. as well as the Fisher Price School House..I was worried that it would be boring as you can't give the original little people to someone so small anymore.. but.. no worries.. the Sesame Street figurines went to school no problem.. Cookie Monster needed to learn manners.. and the Count needed practice..lol She has a great imagination! Isn't this just the cutest little herd? they are all reading Afi's newspaper at the moment...lol Does anyone remember what set of toys that that bear in the background belonged to? Have been wracking my brain trying to remember..lol I think there was a lion in the set and the dolls had jewels or something.. ..lol
Yesterday we baked cookies.. She had no problem cleaning out the bowl....
We're going to have a little family dinner tonight as Shan is leaving again for Taiwan tomorrow.. a few teaching positions came up there and she hasn't found anything here yet..just the wrong time of year.. so sad to see her go again so soon.. but she is looking forward to being warm again..lol
I finished some of these little signs before we picked up Chaya.. cute and always popular ...it's 2 sided so you can just flip it over....
I am really stuck on those little dresses... here's a new one.. plus just a doodle one that I was playing with a new tangle I saw on Kit @Dreamscribe called Finny's Florets by Liz... very cool..looks great on the dress..
Thanks to everyone who played along with the award.. I haven't gotten to very many of them yet.. somehow there just isn't any time with a 2 1/2 year old around.. lol
For some reason.. can't get to the bottom of this page..lol
oh well.. Hope everyone has a lovely Monday.. thanks for looking..
