Clara is 3! Yeah I know, you know I’m going to say that I just can’t believe how fast time flies. Clara is a little woman; she’s very independent and is on the “I’ll-do-it-by-myself” stage, which is very funny when it comes to something pretty difficult to do, like make her own bed. She would say “I’ll do it, watch mama” and then 2 minutes later I see that humble face saying “would you help me?”
Chris has been working a lot in the studio every week and has been very busy, I’m just so happy that he is doing something he has passion and really loves and that is REALLY good at. Check his stuff at walkingcubes.com and delight yourself on his amazing works:)
We had a fun summer, and we got to go to a couple of family trips. There are a lot of beautiful parks around here and we tried to visit them all.
Since summer was So beautiful we couldn’t keep Tony and Alfredo inside, they both were dying to jump into the adventurous world outside. So guess what? I don’t have indoor cats anymore! They both are free and wild now :) Tony always had a restless spirit so he’s more than happy but Alfredo is pretty shy but still enjoys the outdoors. . Now summer is over and we have to get ready for the long never-ending winter.
I’ve been working on a lot of new projects. First I reupholstered my sofas again! :) I know I’m crazy! Well the thing is that we found this high-end furniture manufacturer place where they sell fabric for SO cheap, almost for free, so I got enough fabric to do BOTH of my sofas again for less than $10 bucks! So I couldn’t resist it, and the fabric this time is of a much better quality that the one I used last time. Since I did it once I learned from “mistakes” I made the first time and now they look much better. Plus I’m obsessed with spotless furniture. Later on I’ll post a picture of them I guess..
Second: For a long time I wanted to make Clara a quiet book for church. I had made other similar things to keep her focused on sacrament meeting, but since I don’t have a sewing machine the idea of making one seemed to stressful for me. So I decided to make a paper quiet book! I used fabric as well and velcro. And it looks very cute! I finished it awhile ago but I've been too busy to post. Time moves so quickly around us:) anyways here are the pictures!
This is the book cover
We are teaching Clara two languages, so everything I teach her I translate it to Spanish or viceversa.
On this one the number 1 is the only one that has velcro on so she can put it in the envelope
Some of the pictures have too much flash on,I'm not very good at taking pictures.
Chris' family is coming to visit us next week, we're very excited and looking forward to have fun with them.
Well I guess that's all for now!
