Rantings of a Pregnant Insomniac

It is currently 4:29 AM and I have been up since 1:57 AM. From 2:30 to 3:00 Grace joined me and we had a nice little snack of Cheerios but now she is tucked back into bed with a clean diaper and a fresh bottle. (Sadly, yes, I still haven't been able to stone heartedly take away her bottles.) So with all my new found nightly free time I have been crafting up a storm. The majority of my night time crafting is devoted to Christmas surprises which must be kept hidden but here is a project I started today. A fall table runner. I saw a similar one on oneprettything and started this baby. And then I realized I will have to quilt the thing :( blah. I just hate keeping all the layers straight and if you make a mistake it is like death to pick out the stitches. For this reason I have had two finished quilt tops for a few months that I just can't bring myself to put together. In other news Grace is going to be a little flower fairy this Halloween courtesy of Gymboree. I think I will make her a cute candy bag covered in pink felt flowers during one of my nighttime craft fests. Well now I suppose I will go try to lay down for an hour and a half until my alarm goes off.

Wow!! you are very productive in the middle of the night. So, do you ever get to catch up on sleep during the day?

No, sadly I am a terrrible napper. I lay down and think of all the things I should be doing and feel guilty until I get up and do them :(
