I am so tired (or I should say sew tired), what a weekend! Saturday was the Atlanta Modern Quilt Guild’s 1st annual Retreat which happened to also be my 29th birthday. My hubby had to work, but I am so thankful my Mom was willing to watch my little monsters so I could go.  Best […]

You know what I did today? I sent my baby to Kindergarten. This tiny little thing…. Is a Kindergartener now. I’m still trying to figure out how five and a half years have already passed! My other little one will start full time preschool in a few weeks.  I asked her today what I was […]

    awe! I’ll have my first kindergartener in a month, wah! I’m so excited for her though, plus having just one in the house on my days off will be so precious.ReplyCancel

    • LindseyR

      She will love it! And you will definitely enjoy that one-on-one with your littlest.ReplyCancel

  • Evelene Sterling

    Aww they grow too fast!ReplyCancel

  • Flying Blind

    I love that ours are growing up – just makes me feel older too though, which isn’t so great! Enjoy your ‘homework’ xReplyCancel

    • LindseyR

      It does make you feel older! It is rewarding to watch them grow. Thank you. I will try and work hard at my homework! 😉ReplyCancel

  • Jennifer @ Ellison Lane Quilts

    So it’s here already. I hope he had a great first day. Big hugss to you – I know you’ll miss him but bet he’s having a great time. xoReplyCancel

    • LindseyR

      Crazy, huh? He did have a great first day, he made me laugh b/c the first thing he said when school was over was, “Mom, can you buy me some orange long chips?” I finally figured out those were sweet potatoes fries that they had at lunch. This morning he said, “Mom, I’ll got to Kindergaten and you go buy the sweet potato fries. Deal?”. Silly boy.ReplyCancel

    Wow! It seems that school starts really early where you live! It’s hard to let them go, but necessary. My youngest is getting married in a month. It flies by all too quickly. All we can do is try to enjoy the journey. Hugs, mom!ReplyCancel

    • LindseyR

      We do start super early! Thank you for your advice, I need to remind myself to enjoy the journey b/c I know this time will go quickly too. Congratulations on your youngest getting married, it seems us Moms continue to have these letting go moments as our kids grow!ReplyCancel

  • Mitzi

    What a cutie! Time flies too fast doesn’t it? My girls start back next Monday and I’m not ready yet. We’re just not finished with summer break yet!ReplyCancel

    • LindseyR

      Thank you Mitzi! I hope you enjoy the rest of this week before school starts back. A positive I guess is more sewing time, right?ReplyCancel

  • nicole

    Okay, that hit me! I hope you’re holding up!! Sweet little L, she is just too funny! Riley looks super excited to be starting school! I hope his first 2 days went great! I’m thankful that I still have 2 years before sending Keegan off to school!ReplyCancel

    • LindseyR

      He really is liking school, as far as I can tell. I do think it has been a little shock to him how long the days are! I am holding up. I did get teary this morning b/c I had to drop him off in the carpool line which basically just means leaving him at the curb! My heart had a tiny crack, b/c I just wanted to watch him walk in and make sure he made it. I was like, day TWO? Come on now, let a mama ease into this! Little by little though I guess this is how you hopefully don’t end up with your adult son living with you, HA!ReplyCancel

  • Rachel at Stitched in Color

    Oh, that must be such a big adjustment for all of you! They definitely grow up way too fast.ReplyCancel

    • LindseyR

      Total adjustment, but I think it’s going to be good for everyone once we get used to the big change! Hope your start to school is going well, love reading about your homeschooling journeys!ReplyCancel

  • wickedwickedwitch

    I will be following in your footsteps next year. I hope it is a good year for that kid!ReplyCancel

    • LindseyR

      It’s wild how quickly it sneaks upon you. I do think it will be a good year though, already it’s been a great 1st week!ReplyCancel

  • nicole

    Post already! Now that you only have 1 kid at home during the day you should have plenty of time to post! I’m just kidding… I know that you’re working so hard on Gavin’s quilt {which I can’t wait to see}. So finish that and then post 🙂ReplyCancel

Man, what a crazy few days. Turns out the beach quilt will not be seeing the beach this year!   I gave it my best shot, but life had other plans.  I ended up at urgent care with my little boy yesterday when he suddenly broke out in hives from head to toe and his eye […]

  • Jennifer @ Ellison Lane Quilts

    So glad he is OK and it is not an allergy. It is hard to get off the track when we are full focused. Thanks for keeping it real! Hope you have a wonderful time Lindsey!

    Yes, so glad your little boy is okay! Have a great vacation 🙂ReplyCancel

  • AmyT

    So glad the little one is ok, Lindsey. How scary that must have been for all of you. Enjoy your beach trip!ReplyCancel

  • Flying Blind

    That must have been scary – glad your son is OK though – always perfectly timed before a holiday or a long car journey; kids have that inner body-clock that knows how to freak and stress out their parents the most!

    Have a great vacation xReplyCancel

  • Rachel at Stitched in Color

    It IS ok to give yourself a break. Glad you decided on sleep =)ReplyCancel

  • Evelene Sterling

    I am so glad to hear your boy is okay and that you let go so that you could enjoy your family. Wise!ReplyCancel

Oh man, I really want to finish this sucker. Left to do: sew last 3 blocks together rearrange blocks to final position sash get backing together quilt I know I have plenty of time to sew the binding in the car, I just need to get to that part.   Here’s to hoping!

Woot! I swapped out some fabrics and I really like the pairings now.    The kiddos are off to bed so hopefully I can get the next 8 cut and ready.
