My Brain on Hyperdrive

Still having fun with my new doodling abilities. Made this for the boy. The edges got cut off slightly because the paper was bigger than 8.5 x 11, but most of it's there.

I'm not entirely happy with it. I had to change some things from what I wanted due to some constraints (like stud placement), but overall I think it turned out OK. Now the boy should be happy there is a place for mail, at least.

I forgot to take a picture of the painting I did for my in-laws for Christmas, or any of the jewelry I made for people, but I did make this this weekend. It feels good to create things again.

On the list of things I never thought I'd say: "We don't eat out of the potty."

In the "maybe we should keep track of this" category are the words my daughter now knows how to say. She can sign a few (milk, all done, more, and please), but her list of spoken words is growing fast. Her first word was "Hi." Now added to that list, in no particular order, are Daddy, kitty (occasionally), ball, bye bye, no, uh oh, and this weekend we added shoes. How did she get so big so fast?

The little one got her first haircut on Saturday. Just the back to even it out with the sides and get rid of the baby mullet. She was very good.
