Or at least in my opinion she is…

Finally! A Catalogue Katie! Yay! I bought this skirt for $4.00. Love it!

I did my first real work-out last night. I’m pretty pleased with myself especially since the last time I ran, I pulled a muscle in my pregnant stomach. I basically haven’t ran since last fall. Last night felt good.

My husband is the best. Conor encouraged me to leave the baby with him and go out and do some things I’ve been wanting to do. Yesterday I went to Joann’s, Pier 1, Sunflower Market and the bank. Honestly, it was wonderful. Then I came home and began a new project. I was inspired to make a spiderweb quilt, which I have since discovered is a huge amount of work! And the blocks I’ve completed are far from perfect. This quilt will hopefully be about 60″ squared and I think it’ll be perfect for picnics and pool days next summer. The reason why I choose this is because I wanted something that I can gradually work on. Obviously I don’t know myself.

These first 2 photos are of my first blocks. After completing those, I decided that I wanted to have a solid coloured center to make things a little easier. I think I prefer the look too since I’m not the best quilter around. I can’t decide if I’m going to use the first two blocks for a doll blanket or make 2 more blocks like them and make a baby blanket (for a gift, not for Holly). Each block measures 15.5 inches.

Oh how I’ve missed my sewing machine!

I am loving Holly’s cheeks! They’re are at their fullest and cutest when she’s in her car seat or swing.

Conor, Holly and I went to Utah this past weekend. The highlights were…

- Holly loving the car and winning the Best Road Trip Baby award
- Visiting Temple Square
- Breakfast and thrift store shopping with BFF, Hayley Mullen
- Buying 3 skirts and 2 vintage patterns for $14
- Attending one of Conor’s mission companions’ wedding reception
- Staying in Conor’s mission president’s ginormous home all by ourselves

Can’t wait for our next road trip… to Calgary!
