Christmas Ornament Exchange

I received from Sadie:

I sent to Heather

Has it really been so long

I can't believe it has been 3 months since I blogged. I usually complain that nothing happens in my life, but now too much is happening.

In Sept Aaron was diagnosed with ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder). It was hard to hear but not a surprise. We knew something was wrong and suspected ASD. Since then we've been busy with meetings and training to but an ABA program in place. He's been working with a home therapist for two weeks now and doing great, he recieves 22.5 hours of therapy a week right now. Unfortunately we are losing our therauatpist due to a family situation for her so we are in the process of hiring another.


Aaron's diagnosis has changed my plans, instead of going back to work I will be staying home for another year. I've decided to become a Consultant for Close to My Heart I've been having fun with the kit they send me and hope to have a blog up and running soon.

As for stitching, I'm not doing alot right now. My Hooked on Exchanges Christmas Ornament is en route so I can't share a pic yet.

I'm going to try and be a better blogger soon.

Busy busy busy

We've been running here and there over the last couple of weeks so I haven't had much time to stitch.

Finally last night I got a chance to work on MOTD and made a little progress.

An exchange, a face and a happy dance

My HOE By the Sea exchange is complete.

Here is the Biscornu I sent Becky (I'm using her picture):

and the wonderful exchange I receive fom Ina:

I made some progress on Adia this week and she now has a face:

And finally my happy dance Foxberry Cottage Maple Leaves

More stitching a my little man

This is Bent Creek's Summer Row, I'm about 1/2 done and it's stitching up quickly.

And an almost happy dance. This is Foxberry cottage Maple Leaves. I have 2 of 3 leaves completed. Hopefully next week it will be finished.

Finally a picture of Aaron that I took today. It's a little dark but I love the smile.

An update and a couple new starts

I've really been hit by the stitching bug lately. I've been working on UTAOL and started two new Miras, Mermaids of the Deep and Adia. Both are for SALs on the Mirabilia Board

Stitched on SW Hint of Heather

Stitched on SW Tropical Breeze

Stitched on SW Elegance Opal

Where does the time go

Gosh the last month has just disappeared and I've been a really bad blogger. Usually when I don't post I still manage to read everyone else's blog but I haven't even been doing that lately.


Aaron had a great birthday party, here are a couple of pictures:

I have been stitching and here are a couple of WIPs to prove it:

Under the Arbor of Love
