Sewing, Cooking, Piano Playing

 This week is winter break so there is no school.  The weather is frigid so Monday we spent the day inside.
 LiLi wanted me to make her a pillow case to have for a sleep-over.....it so happened I had seen one on a quilting book so I let her choose the fabric & I just did the sewing.  This is the back of it.
 This is the front which after this photo shoot we put her name & the year on it.
 After lunch we made soup & she was in charge of the carrots.....she has been taking a cooking class on saturdays & is learning how to chop vegetables

 The day also included a piano lesson
 Of course true to her nature she was soon obsessed with playing
Love

Designer "doggy uggs"

Poor Molly has been having a hard time already this winter with the snow. She has good size pads on her feet which are "webbed" like a lab's foot.  When she goes in the snow it builds up in between her pads & forms a hard piece of almost ice-like snow.  Then she holds her foot up for someone to pull it out.  I decided to make her her own boots. Jessica had spent the night here as we went to First night for new years....more on that later.....so we "googled" how to make dog boots & then modified it to work for Molly.  Keep in mind these were boots you could make in 10 minutes.  It took approx 10 mins to measure Molly's feet.  Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners.  We then made her wear them around the house for a while ...

Molly bike riding????

Popster has been teaching Molly to run along side of his bike.  It has been a slow process but she's finally getting it.  They start off very slowly.......  then speed up a little......  which is when she gets crazy& decides to "carry" the leash......  gradually she feels more comfortable....  then she begins to gallop.... & the ears start to flap!!!!!
