so for the past few weeks i have been racking my brain trying to figure out the PERFECT halloween costumes for the boys.  i really wanted them to be amazing and just right, after all, you only have one first halloween! after weeks of this, my roommate thought of something (and honestly i don't know why i hadn't thought of it before since its from one of my all time favorite books!) originally, oliver was going to be max from "where the wild things are" and liam was going to be one of the wild things. BUT THEN!..... jose agreed that if i made him a max costume, he would wear it. (now for anyone that doesn't know jose, he doesn't like to dress up for halloween... at all! so this was HUGE!) so now the plans have changed a bit, jose will be max and the boys will be the wild things. haha of course i couldn't have thought of this before... i now have to completely make from scratch 3 costumes. i have most of jose's done... i just have to make some alterations.. and i still have to go to the fabric store to get the rest of the supplies for the boys.  There will definately be pictures up after halloween. And there will also be some new pictures up of new products.. I have been knitting like a crazy woman! There will be cute slouch hats and legwarmers! 

Don't forget to stop by my cute little shop @

Oiy, I have a slight headache today =[ I think it's because we ran out of coffee, oh I miss my coffee! But thats ok, it was really nice enjoying a hot cup of lemon blossom tea, and a piece of apple plum tart that I made the other night... yumyum

iIve really enjoyed the chilly-er weather, it's perfect for staying in and working on jewelry and being able to cook some "winter foods." I've actually gotten a lot done this past week.  I was able to fix my sewing machine (the dog had chewed the plug-in off!) so that enabled me to sew up some little wallets and checkbook covers.

 

I've also really enjoyed reading to the boys at night, my two favorites are

"Guess How Much I Love You?"

AND

"Where The Wild Things Are"

(I'm so excited for the movie!)

.CHILLY DOWN

It's been really chilly out lately, so perfect weather to be crafty =] I don't know about you, but there is nothing more relaxing than handsewing some stuff!! Although I'm kind of at a stand still, I have most of some little wallets done, but I need my sewing machine to get them finished. =\ But I have really enjoyed hand sewing most of them, and doing some embroidery on the front.

And my boys are so well behaved and let their mommy do some work.
