Trees and no more disease

My tree swap necklaces are finally finished. Here they are…
Here is more of a close up on the hand etched, stained, and sealed pendants.

We are all totally well. The HFM disease only lasted 3 days and now he’s back to normal. He never did develop sores or a rash. And as far as I can tell the only blisters he had in his mouth (the doc told us there were two) must be healed too because he’s back to eating normally. Yay immune systems! Also, I tried chamomile (along with the motrin) and I think that it really helped him feel calm during the worst of it. Thanks for the advice Grammy!

Here's a recent picture of my silly kiddo...

We go on Thursday to find out the sex of bebe #2. I'm conflicted about what I want. My Scottish, frugal side says "boy" and my sense of adventure says "girl". As long as it's healthy, I'll be happy! But, once again we agree on a girl name (don't ask, 'cause I'm not sharing) so that pretty much guarantees it's going to be a boy.

Here is my garage sale find from today. It’s a wool sweater that the woman’s friend brought back for her child from Peru. I bought it for a dollar. It will fit the boy this fall/winter. I just love all the bright colors and it will be super warm!

Also scored a learning tower off of craig's list... here she is in the kitchen...

As always your posts are so informative and fun to read. Really like the tree pendants..absolutely fabulous. Remembering how high Nico put up your cabinets, was wondering if the learning tower would hold Mini Nonna M as a step stool. Your looking good and pregnant. Found material today for new baby girl blanket and pillow. See you soon in New York. Love Nonna M
