I kind of have a bit of an obsession with hearts. I love the shape and I love the meaning. Last week, while I was brushing my teeth one evening, I had an idea! I quickly finished up, and then pulled out some graph paper and unloaded my idea. Perfect. I love it! I'm so excited about this new design! I have so many ideas for it. I hope you like it too. My first "littlest love" quilt is finished and available for purchase in my shop, Lucky No. 7.

Today, all the girls wore their Halloween costumes to dance class and us parents watched. It was so fun! Holly loves her ballet class. She loves anything ballet. She now has shortened Angelina Ballerina to just Angie. Greta was so happy to be able to sneak in and pretend she was in Holly's ballet class. The other night, I put Greta to bed in her ballerina shirt because I could not take it off of her! This class was also round one of candy. Ugh. Holly LOVES candy so much!

When I was in Calgary in August, I bought this great striped sweater dress from Joe Fresh. I had to get it for Greta, and it was so cheap (something like $16) and man oh man, I'm glad I did! Our weather is finally cooling down enough for long-sleeves. I've really been looking forward to putting this dress on Greta! The colors are perfect on her! I have a bad feeling that I'll only be able to have control over what she wears for a little bit longer. She's already developing an opinion, for example, her favorite way to dress is like an, "ina," or ballerina

I really like the photos of Greta and her bunny. Bunny is her lovie and she adores him. She has two of them and both of their noses are looking a little rough because she strokes the nose for comfort. It's quirky and hilarious. I can't want until she's old enough to enjoy the book, "The Velveteen Rabbit."

I love taking photos of Greta and Holly. Greta has some serious attachment to Holly. Every single joy school that Holly goes to where we don't host or stay to help, Greta has had a major melt down with nothing I can pinpoint it to. And this morning, Holly went with a friend to a farm (I'm too sick to take them both), and Greta lost it. She was completely beside herself and had me sobbing as well because I felt so bad. Conor and I are both concerned about when Holly starts school - that'll probably be really hard for Greta. But the positive flip side of all this is that my girls already have such a strong bond, maybe more so Greta to Holly than the other way around, but still. It makes me happy to know they love each other so much.

Holly is at a really funny age for taking photos. She has a lot of goofy faces and can tell me, "that's enough," when she gets sick of my camera in her face. So pretty much every photo I take of her is a little bit funny. 

Holly loves this dress. It's a hand-me-down from a friend and I would've never guessed that Holly would like it so much! She's so picky! I try really hard to get her things I think she'll like, but she still doesn't like most of it. Insanity. I love Fridays because I get to dress her in whatever I want her to wear after ballet! We have major issues with clothing in our house, so whenever Holly will agree to wear anything not princess dress and isn't tacky, it's a good thing.
