free time = craft project :)

Two fridays ago I had to go into work (not a furlough Friday) and Nick decided to stay with Colson the whole day (!) He did great :) and even had fun! He planned a playdate with Matt & Ryan in the afternoon, so when I got home, they weren't back yet.

I remember thinking "hmmm ... it's so quiet," and realized that since Colson was born, that was the first time I was home - alone. No husband, no baby ... it was wierd. Ok, for like a second ... then I started a craft project - HAHAH. For those who know me I love crafting. With Colson, there's hardly any down time for crafting, so I decided to take advantage of the time. We had a couple of old mismatched chairs in our spare garage that I thought I would spiffy up and bring to use in my office. I re-painted them to match and then sewed a cushion cover and pillows. I worked on them for a bit Friday and for a few hours Saturday while Colson was with his Bebe (Nick's mom) and Nick was out paintballing. Actually, that Saturday was the first time that I was home alone since Colson's birth. Here's the finished project:
