Runs With Spatulas

Over the past few months I've gone through quite a few tutorials for nursery items such as curtains, a crib skirt, crib sheets, changing pad cover, and how to recover a glider. All with the expectation of a little girl arriving in January.
Well, she arrived with fanfare (*cough*a nice extended hospital stay*cough*) 4 days early, and we just hadn't quite put the finishing touches on the nursery. So a couple of weekends ago, we finally "finished" it. There's still a few things here and there...

Oh my goodness. Baby Spatula is sleeping and I actually have both hands free. And there is nothing superbly pressing that I must-do-this-minute-before-she-wakes-up. It's a miracle.
It might be more of a miracle for you than for me though. Because it actually allows me to share these fabulous cheesy potatoes with you. And you'll thank me for it. Profusely. I know I have them marked as a side dish and all, but honestly, we may or...

Back in January, my middle nephew, The Squishy, turned two. And it was the first birthday party for any of my nephews/niece that I had to miss. (Being overly large and pregnant does not bode well for travel.) Needless to say, I was bummed.
Even though I couldn't be there to help celebrate, I still wanted to get the little man something I knew he would get some serious mileage out of. Over the course of the past few months, we had noticed how much he loved to just sit and color. Or, well...

Our little sous chef has arrived!
