been busy
December 26, 2007

So we had our bug last Tuesday. Margot Bea. I have been busily posting on her blog and dig this chick has been neglected. But here I am and I actually have something to talk about besides painful nipples, her perfect lips, watching her with my man, my swollen heart, her giant, wrinkled feet and how I cannot believe she was in me and is now out: Margot’s first holiday skirt.

It is super simple. Rectangles. But I managed to turn it into a full day project that involved a lot of seam-ripping and cursing. I have felt surprisingly energized after the 15-hour, drug-free labor and delivery that rocked my world. I have been craving for Margot to meet friends and get out and about with her. Sewing has been a great way to spend time. She snoozes and sighs in her sling and I, distracted by her amazingness, mess up over and over. And over. But I am super happy with the result. She wore it to John, Tony and Pam’s Christmas Eve party.

I was wondering where you’ve been! So glad to see that you and Margot are doing very well, and Alice is right there with you still!

Take care. Headed over to Bug’s blog to check out how your last week has been!
