Tired, excited, depressed

I'm overly tired but feel bad that I haven't posted in my blog in so long, so I'm going to make it quick. I'm excited because I joined a crafters club and have signed up to do a craft show in December (my first ever!) and depressed because the Noles lost tonight in a pathetic game.
This picture is of Lily in one of the new dresses my dad sent her.

This picture is of Lily playing soccer with her soccer ball that Uncle David and Sherah got her for her birthday. She is a very good kicker!

This picture is of her opening her presents that Granny sent her from England. (I've got a great video of this, just haven't uploaded it yet)

This picture is of Lily helping me make my aprons (and if you want to see the apron... it is listed at www.kitschyaprons.com)

This picture I absolutely love because of the bright eyes and huge smile

and this picture was taken two seconds later when I told her that she could not have cookies for dinner. Her newest talent is going from happy to tears in a split second.

I don't wash Zelda and Lily together, Zelds just jumped in so I ran with it and let Lily wash her. Then, of course, I let all the water out, took out the dog and re-washed the baby.

For the past couple of weeks Lily has decided that she likes to sew. She comes to me and says "sew mommy?" and pulls me into the cave to sew. I don't let her sew on her own, but she sits in my lap and tells me "watch fingers mommy" then pulls the pins out once I've finished the seam and puts them on the magnet for me. I've gotten quite a bit of sewing done!

My mom saved all sorts of things from our childhood. I'm assuming that she saved them with the intention of letting her grandchildren play with them. (eBay wasn't around back then... so it couldn't have been that reason)
She saved all the parts and the boxes and everything. How in the heck could someone have four kids and still manage to do that? Anyway, when Daddy moved from Marietta we got rid of a bunch of it simply because no one had the space to store it. I saved some of my favorites. See here, Lily likes Strawberry Shortcake too.
