Cuties in the Kitchen & A Completed Project


Jacob was running and jumping as I took pictures. He always wants me to take pictures of him and his various toys so that he can see the results. I thought this was pretty cute because it looks like he is dancing. And there's Daniel, just being his adorable self. Looks like he is planning something sneaky.
As for my project... I have been NEEDING to hem my kitchen curtains. I like them long, but the boys keep playing in them and touching them and they are white and the boys hands are usually dirty when they do  this. You can just see the long curtain behind Daniel above. I had to tie the curtains in knots to keep them out of reach and they looked so ugly. So then I folded them in half and used clothes pins to keep them out of reach and but they still looked terrible. Since they are sheer, I didn't want to just do a regular hem since I was worried it would look bad. What I really wanted was ribbon. And what I really really wanted was to go to the city and go to Michaels Craft Store because they ALWAYS have a 1$ bin of ribbon. So last friday I got that chance and friday night I hemmed those curtains. I think they look extra pretty now. Plus, the blue in the ribbon matches my blue exterior doors exactly!

Bonus pictures: Daniel looking mighty pleased with himself while enjoyed one of Mama's peanut butter squares. I know, I know, no PB before age 1, but Jacob fed it to him at 4 days old, so he is fine!!

Jacob having a banana and milk to wash down his treat. Yum. Find the recipe HERE. Though I used half icing sugar, half brown sugar this time. Delicious.
