My “maternity leave” is almost up, and the picture above is a pretty accurate one when it comes to the reality of our lives for the past few months. At first, Josh and I thought we hit the jackpot. Our baby boy Jude didn’t cry and he put himself to sleep. But each day that [...]

Exactly one month ago, Jude Harvey Eugene was born at 8:30 in the morning. The date was 11/11/11, my husband’s 30th birthday. I would like to mention that the birth was completely natural, not induced like many people assume. Ever since his arrival, my life has been a combination of euphoria and fatigue –just like [...]

The past four months of my pregnancy have been difficult. When I was pregnant with Monet, despite the morning sickness at the beginning, life went on as usual those last 5-6 months. Everyday I walked to and from work 3 miles, I was energetic, and ready to take on the world. I felt like a [...]

Three years ago, I truly enjoyed making a Charley Harper Applique Embroidery Quilt for my daughter Monet. It was my first quilt, and so I think it will always be my favorite, as this is when I discovered and feel in love with the process of quilting. (You can find the pattern for sale here.) [...]

For the past 5 months, I have sewn for everyone but my family. The work has been wonderful, and I have enjoyed making every piece, yet at the same time I have longed to sew for my daughter, and the little boy in my belly. This past week, I took a day off and did [...]

I’ve been holding onto some emotions for a while now, since December to be exact. I decided that the best thing to do, was to share my feelings with the world, as a means to move on. Along with emotions, I’m also sharing a handful of work that I’ve yet to reveal. The two are [...]

My family roots tie me to farmers, yet I find myself drawn to wanting to live in the city– I sometimes feel like I’m living a double life. My backyard, while very small, is a garden haven in the summer. Most of the yard is filled with raised beds where we grow various vegetables. In [...]

My husband is from ID and I’m from IL –we currently live in UT. What does this mean? Well, it means that Monet’s grandparents live very far away, and as a result, Josh and I go on very few dates without our daughter. And in all honesty, that’s ok, I love hanging out as a [...]

Monet is getting to the age where she LOVES play and pretend. I know what you’re thinking, what child doesn’t like play? I don’t know why, but just recently this has really developed strongly in her. She’s a bundle of energy, jumping from one activity to the next, using her imagination, and her creative side [...]

January has been a rough month, between all the snow and the sickness. First a cold, then I caught that horrible stomach bug, then another cold (or the same cold, who knows), and then a sinus infection. Ugh! Along with that, the inversions have been long, and the snow heavy. My moment for this week [...]
