adjusting

we are adjusting to our new schedules.
Josh is now taking the bus and buying his lunch at school & it isn't so bad?
 . . . over all I think he is very happy being a little more independent and he completely adores his new teacher! I worry about him meeting new friends . . . its hard because he only went to school last year with one other little boy that goes to his new school. Unfortunately, they are not in the same class. 
Josh was happy that he got to play with him last week . . .
Even though this week has been a little busy with carnivals, soccer & a really fun family BBQ at my Aunt Maureen's . . .
I  have had more time to do odds & ends around here that I was putting off. For eample, I got around to hanging the curtain rods today that have been sitting here since we moved. Also I will be once again selling on Etsy. You may remember forever ago I sold on eBay and more recently I sold on Etsy. Unfortunately-  over the summer I just could not make time for it -I decided to take a break from selling all together. But like always -I missed it! I have been trying to get some of my vintages treasures together and will hopefully selling again by October!  Here is a sneak peek at some of my fav's . . .
 Have a Great Tuesday!

Banana Pancakes & Bean Bags

It's fun working at a place that makes a wide variety of  food . . . This was my yummy breakfast Monday Morning:)


So I had mentioned in a previous post that I bought a sewing machine, well I love it & I'm having so much fun making all different things for Josh. I started off with the basics . . . throw pillows . . . then I moved on to bean bags.  . .(baby steps;)
Solar System Bean Bags
I used a think canvas material for the bags & all different colored fabrics to make the planets.  Then I used a stencil & different sized glasses to make the planets.
I thought theses bean bags would be fun (& educational!) for Josh.

They are filled with all natural navy beans
Then I made a quick burlap bag for them!
Josh not only loves his set, but I also sold a set to a very sweet woman in Washington on Etsy:)
I will be linking the shop up here but I just started listing a few weeks ago, so I am still trying to figure everything out & get everything set up!!!
