Happy New Year!

It’s been way too long since I’ve blogged.  As a matter of fact, it’s been 5 months.  How did that happen?!

I took a step back from blogging and a step towards actually BEING with my kids.  I am with them all the time, but I don’t think I was really WITH them.  Know what I mean?  Anyway, I spent less time writing and photographing and more time playing, getting dirty, and exploring.  I loved it!  I still did some designing and creating – I just didn’t document it.

I’ve been able to add some new items to the shop.  Chalkcloth placemats, appliqued shirts (short and long sleeve), and baby packs, which include 2 burp cloths, a snack bag, and 2 snuggle squares.

You can look forward to seeing some clothes from me soon.  I’m in the process of working on some Valentine’s Day skirts and shirts.  I am hoping to add them to the shop by the end of the week.

As for blogging, I’m going to be doing my best.  I have a ton of posts with great ideas ready to be written.  Hopefully that will happen on a more regular basis.

I hope everyone had a fabulous holiday season!
