A happy (belated) Thanksgiving from our family!I haven't been sleeping much, but we are doing really well. :) Thank you to those who have been checking on us!
Baby girl turns seven weeks tomorrow (wow). She and I have big plans to hit JoAnn's and get a good deal on batting (hopefully there's some left!)
Lately she's working on her smiling (and Mommy's working on capturing it).
(and you can see how her eating every 2 1/2 hours around the clock is giving her a nice little double chin).
She's oh so snuggly...
and does the cutest little stretches.
(I swear, if anything gets me to have a third baby, it will be these adorable newborn stretches)
I've done a little bit of sewing (it's taken me about a week/block). ;)
This will be for Scarlet's bedding set. (It's Moda's Sophie collection, paired with chenille)
My goal is for Steiger and Scarlet both to get new bed sets for Christmas... hopefully I make it!
And here's our recipe for pink salad (aka "Overnight Cranberry Salad")
1 lb. fresh cranberries
2-3 apples
1/2 lb. miniature marshmallows
1 c. sugar
2 c. freshly whipped cream
Core apples (can peel, but we don't). Chop apples and cranberries well (I pulse them in a food processor). Add marshmallows and sugar (I use less sugar than it calls for). Mix together and let it sit overnight. Next day, fold in the whipped cream... Delicious (and so easy!)

She is adorable!!! And you are going to laugh. My bf has made the exact same quilt with the exact same charms. The top is pieced (but 2 pink and 2 red blocks) and waiting to be quilted in her basement. What are the chances? You both have excellent taste :)
Love her! If you ever need me to fly that way just to babysit...I am IN!
I love the chenille with the blocks...so yummpy!
She's so beautiful, Tracey! I love those baby stretches too!
Nom nom nom baybeeeeeee.
Aww, sweet baby! My third had me wanting a fourth with all of the newborn cuteness. Lovely quilt.
She's a beauty! Love the quilt too.
Love the WIP but I swear if she was wearing blue in that photo of her stretching I would mistaken her for a photo of my first :o) Enjoy every minute
I'm happy you're all OK and she's beautiful! I just love when a baby stretches and when they fall asleep over me.
Happy thanksgiving and regards from Barcelona.
Aww she is a cutie! :) Lovely quilt coming along there too!:)
Newborns give me such an urge to procreate! Happy Thanksgiving to you, too!
Scarlet is a sweetie pie! Lots of ahhhhhhhhhhhhhing going on here from me;)
The quilt top is sooooooooooooo wonderful Tracey.
Oh, she's so sweet! You're right, those newborn stretches are too adorable. And at least you're getting SOME sewing in ... : )
I am amazed at how you can have a 7 week old, a 2 year old and STILL manage to sew! You rock!
She is adorable,love those sleepers. Blessings to you and family. Sandra
oooo, sweet baby pics, thank you!!! I love the quilt you're working on for her. So pretty and she'll love feeling the chenille.
Scarlet is adorable. Baby stretches are the best. Her little quilt is so cute. Love the chenille.
She's gorgeous. And her bedding set is going to be lovely too. Great colours. Juliex
Aren't snuggly babies just the best? Her quilt is almost as pretty as she is!
Ahhh, she's beautiful. I've been watching for an update post. I figured your family is too happy, content and busy to even think about blogging. Yes, those stretches are wonderful. Thanks.
What a little muffin!--I know just what you mean about those little stretches they are just the sweetest, aren't they!?! I was just thinking about you guys the other day--glad to hear everything is going great. =)
She is so amazingly adorable!!!
Hi Tracey! I didn't see this post until just now as I haven't been following along with Google Reader....too time consuming.
Little Scarlet is adorable and has really grown! Amazing changes. I love those little baby stretches too and the cuddling! Enjoy.
Hugs, Karen
Love me some cranberry salad. I add pecans to mine and leave out the apple. Yummy stuff!
