The Princess and The Frog and New Orleans and Voodoo

First off, I sewed NUTTIN'.

We saw The Princess and the Frog. I loved it. Yeah yeah it was set in New Orleans, but it was sooooooooo romantic and funny, too :D


After the movie I asked the kids, "Did you guys love all the Voodoo or was it just me?"

Bella (7) answered, " It was just you."


Bianca (5) started to ask during the movie when it would be over so I knew she was bored. But I asked what was your fave part? Did you have ANY fave part?


She gave me the no-look stare and made the ZERO symbol with her fingers.



STILL. It was funny and I loved it and Bella enjoyed it, too :D

The Plan

is to have 8 Love Voodoos by tonight..... this afternoon the girls and I are going to see The Princess and the Frog :)

New Monster Plush

When I make them they look pretty good, but after I stain them...then I go AHHHHHHHHH, lol

Saturday's Stuff

I'm off to get more embroidery floss so I can finish these guys....

New Monsters

New monsters...I have a big zombie coming later witha skull necklace, but as it isn't finished yet i can't tell if it is a she or he or what.

This is how the conversation went...

Bianca comes up to me a few days ago with a marker drawing of hers. She wants to show me what she has created and shows me her art and says ," Mom, look at my sunny happy monster!"....I say, "oh, she's awesome! She's so colorful and supersuper great!! "
I totally mean it because it's so happy and fun and when I look at it it just makes me HAPPY.
Then in an innocent and sincere way she says.... and she doesn't mean it to be insulting...you can tell by the way she says this that it's the way she SEES it....."Yeah, mom, not like your ridiculous, stained moldy monsters...."




hahahahahaha, what a compliment....that's how I take it :D
