where's the time gone!!??
wow! river is going to be 6 months old on the 19th! i can't believe it!! she's slept in her crib all by herself for the past 4 nights, and last night she slept from 8:30pm to 6:00am!! this is the longest she's ever slept without waking up!!! she's got her two bottom teeth coming it, she's almost sitting up by herself, and she's saying mama...though i know she doesn't know what she's saying just yet. who said she could grow up so fast!!!???

estate sale goodies
a few roads down from me there was an estate sale going on...luckily for me i got there 30 mins after opening on the first day...i got a great deal!! all these handmade doilies, vintage laces and other trims, frame, keys, rhinestone buttons and handmade ceramic pendants for 11.00!!! i'll probably dye the laces for dolls, i went back for more keys (they were only 1.OO!!!) but some guy bought all the rest of them...oh well. i never find good deals like this!! i was happy!! :)
be beautiful ...be you
i've had this idea for this girl for a while...i love the colors, so different for me..and the words. so true!! :)
loved
i started this painting a week or two before i had river...only got the drawing, outline and skin coloring done...finally got to finish it a few days ago. this was somewhat of a challenge for me, as i love outlining and and hard edges to my art...i have a hard time with the main focus of the painting not being in the foreground...this is from suzi blu's les petit dolls class, i love her techniques and it was fun to try to get outside my comfort zone alittle. i did several others that you can check out on flickr.
