mod podgin and craftin'

on a super HOT day.....

Was it hot where you were at yesterday? It was going to feel over 100 degrees the weather man said, and I believe it! I really don't like heat.....UNLESS....i am in or near water. Now that im preggs, my body temperature is sky high!!!!!! The good news is i was inside in the a/c doin some craftin, so no worries. i hope you got a chance to do something crafty too, and i wanted to share what my sis and i have been makin for the babe's room........

pom poms.......prompts to martha stewart

sis starting a new pom pom...........

so i realize they don't look that sweet hanging from random places downstairs..... BUT my friends....they are gonna look totally rad in little mason's room :) :)
thoughts??? ted thinks they would look good in a girls room.....maybe he isn't up to snuff with fashion decor????? mason is gonna be rockin' a pretty sweet little roomzzzziiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeee :)
