Is it only Wednesday?

This is proving to be a VERY long week.  All five kids are FINALLY in bed and {mostly} asleep, though, so I'm beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel.  Dramatic points of the day included an early morning meltdown from Ethan who was trying to find a suitable container for transporting a crayfish home from school and an early evening trip to Crazy Town from Grace who was desperately trying to turn that sprained foot of hers into a broken one.  Because she really wants crutches.  And a cast.  Fortunately, all her jumping around and beating at her foot with various plastic toys and other objects did no {further} harm and she eventually settled down to do her 20 minutes of reading without further ado. 



Now that the kiddies are all in bed I get to jump back into my newest project -- a quilt I'm making for a new little niece who should be making her appearance shortly.  Sarah -- I know you said to go ahead and surprise you, but I can't help but post a couple of pictures as a sneak peek!  Hopefully, I can finish this up before baby Molly arrives. 


Happy Wednesday!

WOOOoooo! I love it! It is so cute, and looks like a Molly (if that's possible) :)

And Grace trying to break her foot reminds me of Eleanor. She always wraps her foot up and pretends it's broken and finds something to use for crutches. hahaha
