Here is one of our daily activities- cars on the back of the couch! It has been a lovely month with Finch turning two and me getting older too! He was born on my birthday two years ago- crazy!! I got an iphone for my birthday! eep! the hubby brought me a buzzing box and I squealed- yes me, I squealed. You should see our brick of a cellphone that must be from 1997, which I never even use in the first place. Who would I call? Anyway, I am giddy with all the bells and whistles and installed the blogging app so maybe there will be more here from me. Willow book #2 is due on friday and I am feeling good about the its state- I think! Still have to go over each page with a fine toothed comb and check it all.

bye bye!

A little doodle I found on the back of one of my scrapbooks. I still love my paper scrapbooks even in the age of pinterest and flickr, etc. If I feel sad or lonely or whatever, I love to flip through these books and see all the pretty pictures i have collected that inspire me. You can see a few pages I uploaded ages and ages ago over there on the sidebar in a gallery. I am working away here on borrowed nap-time time, finishing the final pages of the next book. Amazing how suddenly Finch is napping again, just when I need some extra time to get this work done. Maybe its the warmer weather but I am grateful for it.

woo hoo another nap!

Furiously coloring in!   Well I am sure it would surprise and delight my little kid self to know I get to color in pictures as a grown-up...  If get all anxious I try and look at it that way.

I tidied things up around here and took away all the ancient links, even though they were good ones, and brushed away some of the cobwebs.  I wanted to get this blog back to more about me with the hopes of generating a little more income from  "coloring in".  I need to fund my energetic project that keeps me at home and knee deep in cheerios.  Seeing first hand the passion my kid has for vehicles,  I want to create some small prints in that theme perhaps.  I really am out of the loop technology wise though and I am not sure blogging even makes a peep anymore!  Especially when I only get in here once in a blue moon!  However, until I get my iphone and twitter and TIME, I will limp along in my regular way.

hi hi!

Hello! I am working away here at the tailend of one of Finch's rare naps.  It great!  I don't like to work at night at all.  I am coloring in the pages of the next Willow book!  It is going pretty good though I have moments of panic about how I will get it done, with an hour here and there of work.  Today I believe I WILL get it done on time!  Ah- ha- the boy has awoken!  more later-

ohh what is sweeter than a sleepy boy coming down the hall saying "I love you mummy- I miss you! I love you!"  after a nap?  Life is good-
