A Very Lazy Day!!

On Friday, we went to the Crafter's Barn and Bill got me some little ornaments to embroider so today I got them all done. There are 4 of them. We will have to take a picture of them. They are about 4" around and there is a Christmas Tree, a candle, an ornament, and a candy cane. They are really cute and really easy to do. I got one done a day. So today we went to Grandma's and got some batting so I got one of them all done with a red ribbon to hang on. I am going to try to find some little bells to hang on the bottom. I had some but I am TERRIBLE and I can't remember where I put them.

The picture I put on tonight is one that my Baby took of me while I was crocheting a pair of slippers. One year, when we had NO INCOME, I made some little slippers for everyone. And I also made some engraved pictures for the kids. I made Michael an owl (because he likes to stay up all night), Bobby a tiger (because he likes them), Elizabeth an angel, and Trey a monkey face (because I have always called him my "monkeybutt"). And of course they got slippers. Last year we made all of the kids cd's to listen to of the songs that they like. Bill gives everyone lawn ornaments which are so beautiful. This year since we got such good results with the homemade items, that is what they are getting. So SURPRISE, Mom and Don!! Sorry. I was talking to Bill about making my folks, sister, and brother some bread. I will make my mom and dad a loaf of that Friendship Bread and give my brother and sister a starter kit of it. I hope they like it. I know I love baking for everyone. Except my mom, she can't believe that I actually make it all from scratch and she calls me "Little Suzy Homemaker" I hate that, my ex-mother-in-law's name was Suzy and she didn't work or anything. So to call me that is so WRONG!! I am really thinking differently about what to give my mom at least. My sister won't call me that. I made some rolls (from scratch) and took them to work for Patsy and Bernie and my mom was there (which I didn't know it) and she called me that. I didn't give her one.

Anway, it just teaches me to NEVER, EVER do that to our kids. I don't care what they do, or don't do, we will NEVER do that to them. So I am getting off of here so we can go to bed and hold my Baby real tight. I hope he sleeps a whole lot better. His demons are getting pretty bad at night. So good-night all and keep the demons away by holding your Baby real tight.
