A couple projects and a smile

Believe it or not, in the middle of the time of waiting for Justin to come home, we had some time that we had to fill - and we thought we might as well make it productive time! Martin had a few days off at that time because of the Christmas/New Years holidays, so he took the opportunity to make our coffee table. It is almost finished being sanded, and then is ready for staining. We were pretty excited about how that turned out!

I used some of those evenings to make a diaper bag with some of the extra fabric I had from Justin's crib quilt... and was pretty excited about how that turned out too! (I used this pattern.)

And, just cause now that our life isn't the same without our little guy, a blog post without a new picture of him wouldn't be the same either, right? I think this is the best ever smile caught on camera. He gives them to us lots... just not usually for the camera... enjoy! :)
