Now keep in mind that she is 3 1/2 years old! She loves to draw stuff like this. I would like for her to do this on paper but she REALLY likes her <em>DoodlePro</em>™.<a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_hau2cZF0ZIY/RlsKJ_2o4HI/AAAAAAAAAAs/-2c7Dku1lQA/s1600-h/DSC06036.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5069656972411330674" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" height="176" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_hau2cZF0ZIY/RlsKJ_2o4HI/AAAAAAAAAAs/-2c7Dku1lQA/s320/DSC06036.JPG" width="253" border="0" /></a> We have gone through 7 of these in a 2 year period!<br /><br /><br /><br />I guess today is as good a day as any to get sewing! I try to sew a little each day so I won't quit. I really enjoy doing this sewing thing! I think the reason I like it is because I can get a pattern and do something different each time. I was beading for a long time but I was doing the same thing over and over. I couldn't just go to the beading store and find a pattern to try so I kind of got burnt out...<br /><br />This is a great little outfit that I just finished for Abby.<a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_hau2cZF0ZIY/Rlttbf2o4OI/AAAAAAAAABk/EH_eWLbYTvA/s1600-h/DSC06166.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5069766124710191330" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" height="187" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_hau2cZF0ZIY/Rlttbf2o4OI/AAAAAAAAABk/EH_eWLbYTvA/s200/DSC06166.JPG" width="251" border="0" /></a><br />I love the blue and white cotton fabric I have on the top. The bottoms are a white eyelet cotton. Very elegant! This was supposed to be one of those "easy" patterns but it didn't turn out that way... oh well.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_hau2cZF0ZIY/RlsJZ_2o4GI/AAAAAAAAAAk/5BjY1xKEyv4/s1600-h/DSC06040-1.JPG"></a>Doodlebughttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15226630882176802988noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24848621.post-86905347413176722102007-05-14T14:26:00.000-04:002007-05-14T14:34:20.917-04:00Some more sewing outfits for Miss Abby<a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_hau2cZF0ZIY/RkiqomISwRI/AAAAAAAAAAU/xGyxyKyDfTE/s1600-h/DSC05277.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5064485395384942866" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_hau2cZF0ZIY/RkiqomISwRI/AAAAAAAAAAU/xGyxyKyDfTE/s400/DSC05277.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Here is a Christmas dress... </div>Doodlebughttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15226630882176802988noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24848621.post-42963684817854032882007-05-14T13:52:00.000-04:002007-05-14T14:25:18.494-04:00So I started sewing...<a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_hau2cZF0ZIY/RkipFmISwQI/AAAAAAAAAAM/4NIwtRPUyV0/s1600-h/DSC05087.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5064483694577893634" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_hau2cZF0ZIY/RkipFmISwQI/AAAAAAAAAAM/4NIwtRPUyV0/s320/DSC05087.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>It's been awhile since I last posted. Actually a year. My DH and I just had our 11 year anniversary!<br /><br />I started sewing classes in August 06 and just LOVE it. I had a great teacher up until Feb when she moved away from us. It was a very sad time for all. The upside is that I have a lovely group of women who come to my house on Wednesday nights and we sew our hearts out. I just love this!!<br /><br />I thought I would post some of the things that I have made since I started. I will try to keep this up as best as possible! Thanks for looking! Enjoy!<br /><br />Here we go... This is the first dress I made for Miss Abby.</div>Doodlebughttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15226630882176802988noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24848621.post-1146776617209409472006-05-04T16:49:00.000-04:002006-05-27T18:09:59.736-04:0010 Years ago today....<span style="color:#666666;"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2348/2584/1600/DSC04337.jpg"><img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2348/2584/320/DSC04337.jpg" border="0" /></a>Well today is the <span style="color:#333333;">Big 10</span>!! 10 years ago tonight I married my wonderful prince. We had a beautiful wedding with a dessert reception. It was a fairytale type wedding for sure!! My marriage seems to be also. I have a wonderful husband and a delightful daughter. I don’t know how I got so lucky, but I just did and I’m keeping them both!! Phil sent me these gorgeous flowers today for the big day. He knows I don’t always like getting flowers but luckily he doesn’t always listen to me...:)<br /><br />My advice to anyone seeking a husband out there is this… <em><span style="color:#333333;"><strong>OPEN YOUR EYES AND DON’T SETTLE FOR WHAT YOU THINK YOU ARE ONLY GOOD FOR</strong>.</span></em> My husband is <em>TOTALLY</em> not the type that <em>I</em> thought I liked and wanted, by far!! You never know until you open your eyes and see what’s out there and don’t settle!!!<br /><br />With that said… Thanks Buggy for 10 great years and here’s to many, many more!!! <span style="color:#660000;"><strong>143!!!</strong></span></span></span>Doodlebughttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15226630882176802988noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24848621.post-1146327224560107522006-04-29T11:53:00.000-04:002006-04-29T12:13:44.573-04:00Anyone watch ONE TREE HILL??<span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#666666;">I don’t know why but I <em><strong>love</strong></em> this show!! I guess one of the reasons is because they really don’t seem to be too bitchy to each other. I think I like that because it gives me some faith in teenagers. I know that they are into a lot of things, but some of them are grounded enough to say <strong>NO </strong>which is a good thing at the age they are portraying. I like the fact that Haylie can say that she’s a virgin with confidence and a smile. That is so <span style="color:#333333;"><strong>AWESOME!!</strong></span> This must in some part remind me of what it was like when I was a kid growing up. I think my friends and I had a lot of the same things going on in our group that these friends do and that was what makes it closer to my heart. Now I am only on season one so I could change my mind after that. So at the moment, season one is the one that grabs me!!

Take 2<span style="color:#666666;">Ok so I was trying to say in my post that never made it on here is that I am CLUELESS for some strange reason when it comes to making this thing look good and not have posts disappear... I will sit at the desk forever looking like a fool drooling all over the place trying to figure this thing out. I know it's not rocket science, but WTF is wrong with me??? Brain, engage, please!!!</span> Grrr!!!Doodlebughttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15226630882176802988noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24848621.post-1143755946171884762006-03-30T12:34:00.000-05:002006-03-30T17:10:18.730-05:00Um, How do you get to sleep without Ambien???<span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><span style="color:#666666;">So last night I decide that I am going to try to sleep without using my wonderful Ambien. I totally love this stuff because I can actually sleep!! I bought some Nite-trition™ Restful Sleep Supplement from Origins yesterday. I really wanted to try to go back to using Melatonin for sleeping. I used it years ago and it worked for me, but I couldn't always get my brand and had to stop using it. I also thought that spending $15 a bottle was a lot...Off course this bottle was $35, go figure. On the other hand the ambien is $40 a month. It all works out in the end I think. So I used it last night and think it would have worked great if only my brain would have <em>shut the hell up!!!</em> Oh and if when it finally did <em>shut the hell up</em> and I would go to sleep that I wouldn't have the totally paralyzing dreams that I have that totally freak me out and make me force myself awake...grrrr. Not good...nope, not good at all... I think I might have gotten some sleep, but nothing to brag about that's for sure!! </span><br /><span style="color:#666666;">So I might try this again tonight. I don't know. I just want to be able to get off of Ambien so I can stop the binge eating and finally lose some of my fat that I gained when I was pregnant with miss Abigail. </span><br /><span style="color:#666666;">Oh the things we will do to think we will look better... </span></span>Doodlebughttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15226630882176802988noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24848621.post-1143564095932538302006-03-28T11:07:00.001-05:002006-03-30T17:04:30.423-05:00Do they EVER listen??<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2348/2584/1600/DSC03849.jpg"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2348/2584/200/DSC03849.jpg" border="0" /></span></a><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><br /></span><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><span style="color:#666666;">Ok, yeah I know she's only 2 1/2, but is she EVER going to listen to me when <em>I</em> talk to her??? I have the sweetest most adorable child on the planet (of course I do, I'm the mother...), but boy, I just don't understand this whole not hearing me thing... (Yes I <em>know</em> <strong>she can</strong> hear me, but can she HEAR me...) Why is it that when someone comes over she's is so responding that it makes me look like I am crazy? I have to admit that I have probably got the easiest child in the world to deal with. She is just so wonderful, but I hate not being heard... I know, it's a conspiracy!!! She and her dad have set this up to make me think I'm crazy... That's it!!! Of course!! </span><br /><span style="color:#666666;"></span><br /><span style="color:#666666;">She is cute, isn't she??</span></span>Doodlebughttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15226630882176802988noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24848621.post-1143488623693255002006-03-27T14:16:00.000-05:002006-03-30T17:06:42.263-05:00Ok, I'm going to do this!<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2348/2584/1600/DSC03562.jpg"><img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2348/2584/320/DSC03562.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#666666;">Well I was bored... Not really bored, but needed an outlet. I think this might be what I am looking for! I hope I will be able to keep it up and make it fun.<br /><br />I am a 41YO SAHM with a beautiful 2YO daughter named Abigail and an awesome husband named Phil. We will be celebrating our 10 year anniversary in May!! I think it's a pretty terrific family!! Oh, and my name is Bonnie!<br /><br />DH and I took up beading almost 2 years ago. I can't believe how much those little beads can multiply!! Phil loves to make rosaries and I like to make these caterpillar type bracelets! Tons of fun!! I will have to take pictures and post them at a later date... I will be back sometime!<br /><br /></span><p></p>Doodlebughttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15226630882176802988noreply@blogger.com0
