Knit Bubble Skirt
I saw this idea here and knew I wanted to make for one my daughter. This is how I made the bubble skirt. My little girl’s waist is 15″, so I doubled that and added 1″ for seam. I wanted the skirt to be 8″, so I doubled that and added 3 1/2″ for seam and…

10K
This morning I ran my second 10K. I’ve really struggled with losing the baby weight this time around. I was 5 pounds heavier when I had my little girl and it’s those 5 pounds that I can’t seem to lose. So I did Insanity and got down to my normal weight, but then the stress…
Halloween Tile
