Current works in progress

These are the projects I am currently working on:

#1. Growing a baby

17 weeks today! Here's the bump as requested. *big smiley face!*

And I am GOING to finish this today. It's my bridesmaid dress for my dear chum Rogue's wedding!! All I have left are to finish the sleeves, hem the bottom, and attach the flowers on the side, which I also have to make but it'll be easy-peasy. Prolly only have to watch one more movie to finish... which I'll have to do TODAY since the wedding is tomorrow. heh heh.

And I'm going to start work on the California video today, in which this little cuteness will be a part of.

I guess it's time to post about vacation

Since it's been... two weeks? Or something? I dunno.

Here's some of my favorite pics

Darth Vader on the sidewalk. Totally random. Totally awesome.

I got BOTH of them smiling! The Man and our niece.

 More nieces. Best buddies and the beach! What more could you ask for?

Cute "bump"-er sticker

I just love this big cheesy grin!

Vacation was awesome. The only thing I didn't like about it was how quickly it went by! Coming home to the heckish heat was NOT fun.

Stay tuned.... In about two weeks, I'll be posting a video of our trip that will contain some VERY exciting news concerning our little sweet pea!!

August 6th, we get the ultrasound.

On this Day...

And here's my dear chum Rogue, also on this day four years ago.

These adorable phone booths are soooo Brit!!

Worth every penny. A hundred times over. I guarantee it. Tell Larry I sent ya. He's the greatest!!

kisses always make it better

I just got back from vacation. oh the lovely, the glorious, the weather. But I'll post more on that later. I've been meaning to post a story on here for a while and I just kept putting it off. Luckily, loading vacation pics onto the computer forced me to also load this pic too, so now I can tell my story.

First, let me say that it is 1:13 in the afternoon and I am eating a bowl of cereal perched on my chest (since the belly can't be used as a table just yet) while typing this.

Okay, now we're ready.

A while ago, I was feelin crappy. Yeah, yeah, we know, so what else is new, Ames. The story gets cute, I promise. I went into the pantry where there is a stash of Hershey kisses, hoping a little "kiss" of chocolate would make the yuckies go away. Well, it didn't make the yuckies go away but it did give me a few minutes of chocolatey yums. And the Hershey kiss had a message for me:

I kid you not. How the heck did Hershey know I wasn't feeling good?
Awesome.

Thanks, Hershey. I'll try.

Am I outa my mind?

As soon as I get some more time and before the baby is born, I want to tackle another epic painting. Not as epic as the last one, but every bit as epic as my Hogwarts one. click on Hogwarts if you wanna see it. This is the painting I want to attempt:

It's an Annie Liebovitz from her Disney collection. I might possibly be completely insane and asking for a whole lotta aggravation, but if I pull it off, wouldn't it be AMAZING?? I think I could do it.

The next question is: am I violating copyright laws?
