Something is wrong with me

This week I organized a cabinet.
I mopped the kitchen floor.
My ottoman is finally finished...
with 3 throw pillows to go with it.
Another batch of cupcakes were made.
This time...Lemon Cream!
Which means a new favorite recipe added to my list.
I went to playgroup.
My children had playdates, too.
All the kids made it to the dentist
and left with a 100% clean bill of dental health!
I somehow managed to motivate 3 of my children to deep clean their bedroom.
And the end result brought me to tears.
Seriously...I cried because my boys cleaned their room.
How ridiculous is that!
(You should have seen it, though...beautiful work!)
And get this...I randomly decided that I should make Anna a dress.
Which had to included a matching bag.

During a typical week, I struggle to make sure dinner is on the table and that my son gets to school in the morning.

Something is really wrong.  Or maybe it's Spring Fever.  But something jump started me...
and has left me wondering how long this will last!

That dress is so cute!! I am not talented in the sewing department. And I've been wanting to figure out how to make those flower things on her purse.

You'll have to share the lemon cupcake recipe... my sister loves lemon anything so I'm always sending her new recipes to try.

Whatever is wrong with you.......is it contagious? The only time I want to catch a bug is now. :) Good job. Wow that is some of the cutest material. Thanks for sending the pattern. Hope I can find it on sale too. And hope I can find such cute material.

I might just attempt this but am a bit scared. It looks a bit harder than my simple skirt I did.

Although I as soon as I find mine (I bought 4 or 5) I'll probably be cutting a new size for Betty and you can just copy it.
