Giveaways and updates!

First off, I am entering yet another giveaway at this cute blog! They use vintage sheets to make all sorts of cute things! And I could really use some of the adorable fabric they're giving away! I have so many cute things I want to make for Lydia! I think I'm an addict to finding cute patterns and stuff! But I just don't have the money to buy all the supplies I want to in order to make it all! Why oh why does fabric have to be so expensive?!!!
Anyways, updates on the family! David is almost done with his first class of 2nd year! Hooray! He took a couple of tests this past week which he did very well on and then has his final on Friday. He actually got school off yesterday, today and tomorrow to study! How nice is that?!!! I think he'll do great!
Our little Lydia just keeps on growing and moving!!! She is now officially a crawler! Last week I was getting a little bit frustrated that she seems more interested in standing up and walking than moving around on all fours! So, I forced her onto her hands and knees and taught her the movements of crawling. Within a couple of minutes she started moving around on her own! Wow! Fast learner! She still likes to stand up (we've had to lower her crib because she's always pulling herself up!) and walking around while holding our fingers, but she does know how to crawl now. She's still not very fast (thank goodness!) and chooses to dig her head into the ground and whimper when she wants to be picked up. Oh well! I took a couple of videos of her, but they're on the camcorder which I don't know how to hook up to my computer. Once David is done studying for his test I'll bug him about it. So, we'll show you the evidence soon.

I hope you win the giveaway. But if not, might I suggest fabric.com. I just discovered it, and it is awesome. So long as you're not too picky as to the patterns, you can find fabric for cheap cheap cheap. Their clearance sections are amazing, and they often have deals you can pile on top of their already zeroed out prices. Just saying. I'm a fan.

And how fun that Lydia's crawling. It's a whole new world once they're mobile. Not necessarily a bad world, but you will be kept on your toes. But it will be fun! Despite the hazards mobiles babies can create (for you and themselves) it's really a lot of fun when they're on the go.
