Hoot Hoot!

Since it was pouring rain we decided today was the day to wear matching shirts, so here we are... I am a huge fan of them matching, whenever I can match them i do, They don't seem to mind and it makes my life a lot easier. I know that Daphne will wear the clothes twice but who cares. Now Daphne wears 12 mo and Sami is 3T - 4T there clothes are in the same places and so it's fun. By the time we have #3 Daphne will be 3 and so they will never get the chance to wear the exact same clothes and so I have to enjoy it while I can. I just hope I have 2 boys next than i will match them up too... oh the powers we have as parents.
These shirts have owl's on them, since Owl's are a new thing right now, they struck me as the perfect shirts, and I love the colors, seriously I wish they had this shirt in my size... As you can tell these girls keep me pretty busy... Daphne has learned to hold her own pretty well, even with the many times that her sister pushes her, kicks her and throws her down so that Daphne won't bother her. One day Dave was watching the girls while I was fixing lunch or something and Sami looks at Daphne and says, " Is it time for your nap yet Daphne" Dave said it was pretty funny, it was not even close to her nap time but Sami wanted to play alone and not share... Yes I got my hands full teaching them to share... If Daphne keeps out eating Sami by double than Sami is going to be in trouble. We are trying to teach Sami putting arms around necks aren't ok... she just gets way into it. But they sure as heck love each other. It's great. This girl doesn't stay still. she is still crawling but just to get somewhere to stand up... she is quite the mobile little girl that is for certain.
I have been trying to get myself organized and was having to buy more containers to organize my crafts and so I decided to finish one I started years and years ago. This isn't done but I started it yesterday. It is very poorly constructed but serves the purpose. It is my t-shirt quilt. I have fronts of t-shirts that I have saved from high-school, college and just other fun ones I don't wear because they don't fit but still love and want to remember them... I mixed in. scraps of fabric and old jean scraps and it's been real fun... When I am finished I am going to take more pictures and describe what it all means to me... It's such memories... each t-shirt is a new memory!

That is so funny you posted that cuz I have one of those quilt projects too. I have a bag of t-shirt logos I cut out and have to find the time to put it together. Great minds think alike!!!
