It's never enough

It is never enough to just have one.
 
With two dogs in our house, life never gets boring. I'm so happy though that we decided on having both of them. Now that Toby calmed down just a little bit, we are able to leave him out of his crate during the day while we are at work.
 
If they wake up from their naps during the day, now they can play together, run in the house and destroy the remaining pillows. 


During lunch we take them for their walks and mostl importantly check if the house still stands.

 
Coming home to two love bugs sitting at the top of the stairs, right at the door, tail wagging, waiting with unconditional love, makes my day, every day! No matter how bad the day was, it brings the biggest smile to my face.
 
Steele always turns over on his back and waits until you scratch his belly. Toby on the other hand is a little whirlwind, jumps right up on you, trying to cover up his fight he had with the one last remaining pillow. He most likely, gets a time out in his crate while I clean up the left over stuffing from the pillow, I didn't even remember we had still laying around.
 
For the most part though they are just the bestest dogs in the whole wide world and I wouldn't trade them for anything. There was this diamond ring...
 
Remember this post when I created a dinner table for Toby? I finally finished the second one, because its never enough to just have one and stop there. You have two puppies, you have to have two dinner trays. Now both can eat in style. I had to shorten the legs a couple of inches, so that Steele can comfortably eat/drink out of it. 
I really like how they came out, now if they wouldnt have slobber all over them... but what can you do.

Wing Chair Recovery - Part II

Image
Only for those of you who already forgot how the wing chair looked when I first got it, here is a picutre which I took in the thrift store! For the amazing price of $18 it is all mine.   Too nasty to sit in, I first ripped off all of the fabric, (I'll spare you the details, since I blogged about that before ) layed the old fabric out, cut the new fabric pieces a little bigger than the old ones and made little fabric piles. I bought about 9' of fabric online at http://www.fabric.com/  I kept all of the old buttons, cut little circles and sewed fabric on each of them. I can tell you, that was my least favorite part.    After all 27 buttons were done, the back seat was the first piece that I re-buttoned.   The buttons go all the way through the fabric and cushion - the back part gets spread apart and rests on the foam. I put the cushion in place and stapled it firm to the back. Repeated all those steps ...

Ruffled Pillow

Image
I feel like its time for a pillow fight with all the pillows I have made this past year. The last one of the year is a white one After the pillow was all done, I started to cut some felt circles, glued them onto fabric with liquid stitch. I cut all the different sizes of circles out, laid them on top of each other and hand stitched them together. For the middle of the pillow I decided on having a ruffled band. For that I used my ruffler attachment on the sewing machine. It is so easy, I don't know why I waited a year to try it out. I sewed the ruffled band to the pillow and laid the six circles on it to see how I need to space them out.             For four circles I decided to make flowers. I stitched the outside of each fabric circle and knotted the thread after pulling it together until a flower like circle appeared. Did that to all layers and hot glued a shiny button.  ...

The Nursery - Final reveal

Image
  I know you couldn't wait any longer to find out if we are going to have a boy or girl. I don't keep it any longer from you, I promise.   Both of us wanted a boy, but really just a healthy little baby is all we asked for.   Since I don't count to the younger childbearing generation anymore, there were some tests that I had to do. One of them is for down syndrome. Scary stuff, let me tell you. With that test though, you can find out the gender and when I received the call with the results, I immediately started crying. Happy and over the moon that the baby is completely healthy but totally in shock that it is a.... CAN YOU SAY BOY???   No wonder I have hair growing like crazy in my face, all this testosterone in me probably doesn't help the weirdest pregnancy outcomes. At least (so far) I haven't been too bitchy, hormonal. Don't ask Brian though, he would probably tell you differently.   I called Brian to tell him and the only thing he sa...
