I know, It’s been five whole days since I have blogged. I am having withdrawls too. So, just sit back, relax, and order up a big ole cup of ME!
Being the consumer that I am, there are always things I want. I think I am doing well with not buying them lately, though. As I told you last year was a big postpartum spending spree, and I have been pretty good about not buy huge things. Well, except I bought a Kindle DX a month ago:
But in all fairness, I have wanted a Kindle since 2007 – so atleast I waited!
But lately my spending sprees have been on craft supplies and, well, now I am saving up for these:
Yes. I have gotten to the point in parenthood where I want to saw something.
What spurred this on was this blog, and my great idea to make my own versions of Mellisa and Doug wooden playfood for L:
Also, they might make some awesome Christmas gifts for the other chillin’s in the family.
Yeah, I am ambitious.
But, like I said, keeping myself crafty on my downtime keeps me creative at work.
L could also use some shelves and I want to make his big boy bed too!
So, are you thinking of doing anything crafty this week? What do you really want? Comment!

I wish you luck and can’t wait to see the pictures of your new projects! I am embarking on a new project as well, I need all the luck I can get. I have decided that for my little girl’s second birthday, I am going to hand paint a table and chair set. The set is already painted, I am going to embellish and decorate it. I want her to have a keepsake to pass down. We’ll see how it goes!
I am pretty sure I will lose a finger by the time things are done – but I still want to try!
My mom uses the kindle app on her iPad too! She liked the iPad better because it is backlit, unlike the kindle. She likes to read in bed. =) But yes, I love me some Kindle!
How was your vacation? I need to hop over and read! =)
Congrats on your Kindle! My hubs uses the kindle bookreader on his iPad and likes it a lot.
And that’s WAY cool about your woodworking. I wish I was good with that kind of thing but I’d probably powersaw my hands off.
I think it’s amazing you are thinking of building your boy’s toddler bed!
