8 Weeks

I can't believe my little man is 8 wks old. Time is going by so fast. Had a great 1st Mothers day and Kellen gave me the best gift - he smiled and giggled at one of the dogs! He has the sweetest smile. I was lucky enough to catch this one on video -



Also here are some new photos!













I am trying to get my sewing room back up so I can start working on some new projects but the movers lost my presser foot and power cord to my machine. Now I am waiting to order new ones!! Hope to be sewing soon. I miss it so much!

Kellen

For those of you who do not know, we recently moved back to FL!! We arrived here from TX only 2 wks before the little one was born (we cut it close!!). We found a house and will be closing on it in the next couple of weeks. We were very lucky that the hubby's new company put us up in a 2 bedroom apt.
I know this blog has now become a photo album for Kellen but I promise I will start posting more crafty stuff when we get into our house and I have my sewing machine back!!

More baby Kellen photos!

17 hours of labor + 1 C-Section = Baby Kellen Woolf!

Kellen Grey Woolf was born on 3.13.11 at 9:30pm after 17 hrs of labor then a c-section. He was 7.13 lbs and 20" long, happy & healthy!!
We are so overjoyed for this blessing in our lives.
So please welcome to the world, Mr. Kellen Grey Woolf!

31 Weeks

Yes, it has been awhile since I last posted and you can probably figure out why! I am doing really well and can't believe I am 31 weeks along. He will be here before we know it. The time has gone by so quickly and I am trying to enjoy every minute!
We have been working on his room and it is coming together nicely. I still need to finish his crib quilt and I have the girls from our Twice Around the Block quilting bee working on the blocks for the quilt that will go on the bed.

This is his crib quilt. The blocks are the crazy nine patch from Oh Fransson. I did have the quilt sashed in grey, but the more I looked at it the more I didn't like it, so I have taken it apart. It will now be sashed in a Moda Cross Weave Storm which is a dark blue.
Here are a couple of the cute blocks from my bee girls for the full size quilt

This one was done by Jeni. Go check out Jeni's blog In Color Order. She is a very talented girl!

This one was done by Faith.  Check out Faith's blog - Fresh Lemons. She is another very talented quilter!
The directs were to create a block between 12.5" and 15" using only squares and rectangles. I love seeing what everybody comes up with. Now I need to decide what color to sash these blocks with!

Happy Sewing!

Boy, Oh Boy, I am blogging again!

I know it has been awhile but a lot has been going on! 
The biggest thing is - I AM PREGNANT and IT'S A BOY!!!


I am around 19 weeks pregnant and doing great. We decided to wait and tell everybody after we found out the gender (immediate family knew mths ago). Since I am of "mature maternal age", in my late 30's, I have been considered a high risk pregnancy and we wanted to wait until all my screening work was done to make the official announcement. Everything has been great so far and the little one is looking healthy. I am due sometime around late March/early April and we couldn't be more excited.



We already have a name - Kellen Grey Woolf. The name Kellen came from a dear family friend who had a son named Kellen that past away when he was young. We are very happy that she has given us the permission to use this beautiful name. I can't wait until we get to meet him.


Of course now that I know what I am having the quilt ideas have been swirling around. I know I am going to do something with blues and greens.  And probably have some sort of a underwater theme.


But first I have to get through Christmas!


Even though I have been pregnant I have still been sewing - just not much. I did have the lovely morning, noon and night sickness and lot's of fatigue. 
I did get one baby quilt made. I did a gender neutral (since I didn't know he would be a boy) quilt using the Castle Peeps line. Its quilted and the binding is ready to sew on!





The pattern is from this wonderful tutorial by Jeni at In Color Order. I am so excited that Jeni is going to be apart of my online quilting bee next year. Check out her blog. She makes some beautiful things.


And on my design wall now is the start of a Christmas present for a member of my family!



Everybody keeps asking me to post photos of myself and my baby bump. Maybe I will do that soon!
Its good to be back blogging!


Happy Sewing
