Happy Friday + Randomness

March 15, 2013

 

Happy Friday! Every day, K makes me laugh. I can’t possibly record every single utterance, but these were my faves this week:

K: I’m so into bugs right now.

Me: Oh yeah?

K: Yeah, I love books with pictures of bugs with information and all that stuff. Chapter books are so last season ago.

********************************************************************************

K: Mommy, I really want an asteroid. A fluffy one shaped like a bunny.

********************************************************************************

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend! I leave you with a weekly haiku:

Have a lucky one
St. Paddy’s is this weekend
Don’t forget: wear green

    Love the illustrations (and the conversations!) but as an entomologist I have to make a correction… the phylum is Arthropoda, not Anthropoda!

      Ah, thank you Amanda! I’ve made the correction – note to self: double-check, double-check, double-check 🙂

    Gorgeous illustrations! Wow.
    Coincientally, I just made my son a shirt with a Stag Beetle fabric: http://cicelyingleside.blogspot.ca/2013/03/boys-stag-beetle-shirt.html
    He’s a budding entomologist too, I think.

I’ve been swimming in nostalgia these past few day I’ve been swimming in nostalgia these past few days, wading through my blog and Pinterest board of the clothes I made for K, who is not so little anymore. what a wild, fun time that was! Remember the old school days of sewing blogs?? I’m back in deadline mode for a number of projects so sewing will have to be put on hold (though maybe I’ll get lucky and sneak in some stitching time). I’m also putting Instagram on hold for the summer, as I do every year. I’ll be back in September with some exciting updates! Have a lovely season, my friends! 💙💙💙💙💙💙
