I finally finished Evan's winter pillowcase. I started it like in January and then got distracted and he's asked me to finish it a couple of times so I decided to get it out and get it done. I even did a bunch of free motion quilting on the front. I don't think I would do that again but I it all turn out nice. I'll have to start one for Wes soon. :)

So I've had Wes in underwear as much as I could today. I got him to pee in his little potty after his nap. I figured since he had just peed I would try him in underwear to go pick up the kids. However he was making like he was going to poop while we were waiting. I crossed my fingers told him not to do it and wait till we got home. It was kind of stinky in the car so I was sure he hadn't waited. I rushed him to his potty once we got back and his undies were clean! He sat down on the potty and pooped! Yay!!!!

Wes told me he had to go potty this morning and then within a few minutes he peed in the potty. So I guess we're going to make a serious effort at potty training. I bought him big boy underwear and a training potty for the living room. Hopefully he'll be out of diapers soon.

Grace got a new purse from grandma Paula and she brought it to dinner tonight. When the drinks came she pulled her own drink cuuzi . :)

First screen printed t-shirt! Still have a long way to go before I can start listing them on Etsy. But proof of concept worked well. :)

Ta-dah! Remodel mostly finished. Still need lots of books to fill out the bookcase, and some trim and hanging art work and Ray still has to put wood down in the walk-in but the bedroom part is pretty much done. Oh and I have to strip and paint the doors and trim white. But then done. :)

Playing dolls with grandma.

Switched out the tile again and we got a great deal on it as a result! The floor is really coming along and looking great!

Yay! The bookcases are done!! Ray and Ted did a great job! I also traded out the stone for the fireplace area. Now back to step one, the floors. Wee have also decided to do new white baseboards and possibly crown molding. The bedroom will be completely different by the time we're finished.
