new shirts



Isold a bunch of shirts on saturday, so i decided to stay home from the market on sunday and make more. Next saturday i'll have 4 new types of shirts available! AND hopefully my new button making supplies will come this week so i'll have more buttons too!


Oh, and by the way, i took all of the pay pal buttons off of my older posts. i did it a while ago, actually. it was too much to think about keeping track of what i had for the online 'store' and the booth at saturday market. but, i should mention that i'm still more than happy to sell shirts to people who live in places other than portland, though. just let me know if you see something you like and i'll try to get it to you!

eleven week birthday/going back to saturday market

Every friday amelia has a mini birthday. today was the eleventh! it was a beautiful sunny day. we celebrated by having lunch at veganopolis with jake, buying a new kind of bottle that will hopefully meet her standards, and playing with mr. rattle fish.
tomorrow is supposed to be a beautiful day too, and i'm excited. I'm going to be down at saturday market for the first time since i've had amelia. it feels funny to think about spending a whole day without her, but its time. the last time i sold at saturday market i was VERY pregnant. i had to pee every 6 minutes and i was an awkward chubby ball of babyness. plus it was SUPER cold out there. tomorrow will be the opposite of that. YES!
so, have a fantastic weekend, and if you're in portland, come say hi to me!

airport birds.

they kinda blend in with the floor.




We went to texas last week for spring break. It was awesome. Warm weather, Shaved Ice, lots of family, lots of presents. On the way back to Oregon, Jake and I decided to get bumped to a later flight so we could each get vouchers for our next trip somewhere. we hung out in the phoenix airport for a really long time. maybe 10 hours. i might be exaggerating. a really long time though. we'd find a spot that wasn't too crowded, hang out there for a while, go get something to eat, find a different spot... it really wasn't too bad. we had plenty of chairs, bathrooms, food, and internet. Amelia was a good sport about it. I had a good time watching people and listening in to their conversations. the craziest thing was the birds. have i just never noticed the birds in airports before? there were a few in the lubbock airport & several in the phoenix airport (i didn't see any in the san jose airport, but maybe it was too late and they were all sleeping). it makes sense, i guess... there's plenty of food, high celings, no real predators. But isn't that weird? don't they miss the outdoors? can they get in and out? do they just stay in the airport for their entire lives? do they lay eggs and have babies that know nothing of the outdoors? who picks up the bodies when they crash into that big window? is it weird that i'm so obsessed with them? i think jake thought it was.
