All these things I made

I had this great idea to make everyone's gifts this year and shop less.  Well, I did shop a little less, but I stressed myself out making everything in the last 2 weeks before Christmas.  So, next year I will be either buying everything, or making it all year.  Here are some pictures of my hard work.  Evidence of late, late nights with little sleep.
 Emma's monkey
 Monogramed blankets.  These were really easy, I should have done more of this.


 Mya's blanket.  Well, this one was started before she was born, and I finally decided to finish it for Christmas.  
 I made a pair of these for all of our moms, and my sister who's name I had.

 Kenadi's bed canopy.  (Where did all of her blankets go?)
 Bike Seat cover for Randy, and a leg strap for his pants when he's riding.
Whew!  I think that's it.

Overheard:

  Emma loves to sing while she's playing, walking, sleeping, eating, well...  you get the picture.  So, while she was playing in the living room one day I heard her sing, "Pa rum pum pum pum! Rum pum pum pum! Poker face!"  I hate to admit it, but Poker Face by Lady Ga Ga is her favorite song, and she even knows it's by Lady Ga Ga.  I can only link her even knowing the song from that dance video game we played at our friend's house last Christmas, since we don't even listen to it ourselves.
  Anyway, I have lots more to post and I will do it soon, but I thought I'd give you a little snack before I pull out the big post.  It's been a while!   Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!
