...Busy Little Bee...

It seems like the time from Halloween until Valentine's Day are just CRAMMED full of events! I have been so busy lately. I'm ready to just sit down and not get up until SUMMER! LOL
This week, I've been getting things ready for my bff, Meghan's bridal shower and bachelorette party. Wed. is Emersyn's birthday, Thursday is Meg's shower, Friday is the bachelorette party, Saturday is E's birthday party. Then, I still have to do lots of wedding stuff for my darling procrastinating friend! She decided she wants me to MAKE a veil for her! (Which I have no clue how to do! LOL) And, she wants me to add ribbon to her ring bearer pillow and Natali's flower girl basket. So, when does she ask me to do ALL of this? Yesterday, yes, yesterday! And, on top of that...I have to hem my matron of honor dress before NEXT Saturday! LOL Sound busy??? It's cause I am!
So...out of all of the trillions of things to do today, I decide to sit down and make E. an outfit for her birthday. Poor girl, never gets any clothes made by her mama! Natali bearly wears any storebought clothes and E-baby wears nothing but! I did make her several outfits at first, but she outgrew them so fast, it made me mad! Now, the growing stuff is slowing down, so I think I'll start again. So I'm making a simple ribbon top w/ ruffle jeans. I love the fabric I'm using! I'll share pics when it's done. (Which may NEVER happen b/c my serger isn't cooperating! It's hard to NOT use a serger when it's just sitting there staring at you...laughing b/c it's outsmarting you...just taunting you...dang thing!!!)
So...what else happened this week? Hmmm...took the girls to the dentist today. Nothing too exciting. Emersyn's teeth don't have enamel on them...just like mine and Natali's. Great...:sigh: Oh...I took and passed my driver's test. WRitten and the driving part. SUcked. I hope I never have to do that again! I would explain the story, but I'm tired. Maybe tomorrow! ;) Oh...and last week, Steven and I decided to make our own laundry detergent. Well, we made our own dishwasher stuff a few months ago and it works good and saves money, so we wanted to give laundry soap a try. Well, we have been using for over a week and so far, so good. Everything smells great and is soft. We are trying to go green...and save money. Every little bit helps. And, it's actually kinda fun! ;) Everytime I do laundry, I think..."Hmmm...I just saved a quarter!" LOL
Well, I suppose I'd best get back to my sewing....Maybe I'll actually finish this outfit before her birthday!
