Goodness


Parker's girl scout troop went to Thinking Day where all the troops pick a country and present images, information, crafts, and food from their country.  Milo got to be an honorary girl scout again!  he had a lot of fun.



Pasta from "Italy"


Parker and Daddy making Japanese fans.


Then we took the kids to Falafel House.  We've been trying to do sneak in a family day once a week, which helps me trudge through the hectic schedule we have this semester.  It's like a fresh breath of air. 


Parker couldn't handle Moo hogging Daddy. 


"I want to be a spy when I'm bigger"


Me and my girl.



Our waitress had different parts of her hair shaved, so Parker begged and begged for us to shave hers.  We did some research on the internet together, and she put together a style that she wanted.  Also she wanted pink/magenta hair (which we're still working on).  The dyes work best when the hair is bleached first, and the cuticles therefore blown open... But I'm not ready to put bleach on her skin or hair.  


Moo wanted to get rid of his mohawk and start over.  He's pretty happy about it. 


New hair!


I started this really basic blanket as a way to wind down.  My friend is having a baby soon, and I want to surprise her.   Milo is using the same fabric to design his own blanket for nap time at preschool.  He's really obsessed with fabric.  


Rebeka and I started on another collaboration.  This one will be more interactive than our first.  We are also in the process of putting together our third collaboration.  Here's the 2nd about 20 min in to working out the basic shape.  Emily (right), our drawing instructor, stopped in and gave us some advice. 



The rug I'm braiding for the collaboration.


Peeves guards it oh so carefully!


Lo' got a new handmade name tag and her first Martingale collar!


She's so timid and sweet, then she'll flip and act like a sassy puppy!  Moo's been really attached to her lately.  He climbs and lays on her saying "MY doggy!", which starts a fight with Parker who claims he has to share Lola.   This dog sure isn't short on love.
