This week has been focused on blogging, crafting, and spending time with my two loving children. I have a daily struggle between trying to learning new skills in the blogging world but also remembering to put down my phone or iPad to give my children my complete attention. There are moments when I am distracted looking at my phone and missing my daughter using her imagination to have a conversation with her bears. I need work on balancing personal goals with motherhood.
READ
I continue to read lots of interesting blogs about motherhood but I also have found a couple blogs on creating beautiful things for the home.
My favourite blog that I discovered this week was Flamingo Toes. There are tutorials for all the items below on the website.
WATCHED
Daughter discovered Peppa Pig toys at the new toy store in town and so we have watched many episodes of Peppa Pig on Amazon Prime this last week. The shows are actually quite cute.
WORE
It is so much more fun to buy clothes for children. I am very luck that my parents send OshKosh B'Gosh for my children.
HEARD
Laughter from daughter playing with her brother. Silence of the night when feeding son at 4 am. They are my "sunshine".
I finished a cross stitch for my daughter. It was suppose to be her Valentine's gift but a little late. She help chose the colours for the dress. I used a pattern from tinymodernist. Now time to start a "spring" cross stitch and Easter felt bunting.
AND LASTLY...
I created my first link party on my blog in honour of Mothering Sunday. Love for people to link up their photos or stories about motherhood.

Your cross stitch looks lovely. I'm sure your daughter will be thrilled. I am still on the lookout for a big project to start but there is just too much choice!
