lessons learned...

A few of the lessons the Vogs have learned/ re-learned this week:

1. A mama who gets to sew is a happy mama. I haven't been feeling up to sewing lately (explanation to come later), but I finally got back to the old machine the other day and finished off a long awaited pillow project for our couch. The green tree pillow is from Pier One from 3 years ago, but the red and green one is one I just made! I got the fabric several months ago at a warehouse sale... I got 1.5 yards for $3! Quite a steal for high quality upholstery fabric.

 2. MK doesn't always learn by example... nope, I never put her to bed in the microwave. When I walked in to her play room to check on the independent playing she said "Shhh mama, baby seeping." She's a really good mommy... we've just got to get her baby a bed!

 3. There is nothing sweeter than watching your man love on your little girl. I heard giggles over the monitor on saturday morning and this is what I saw... they laughed and played in her bed for 20 minutes! Melt my heart you two!

 4. Slow and steady...that's how MK's hair grows! We FINALLY have enough to make a tiny pony tail! There's hope that she might have long hair before middle school!

 5. Don't ever forget... Dominos, although it tastes yummy, HATES your stomach Katy!  

6. Remember, if you ever get chemo at Baylor and you're feeling nauseated, don't look at the TV! Every TV in the infusion room had the Food Network on it. There's just something strange about that to me... if I was getting chemo, the last thing I'd want to look at is food! Seriously though, it was such an honor to watch my sweet friend endure another round of chemo. She brightens up that cancer hospital with her radiant joy... and you could tell that everyone there just loved her! Selfishly I loved having a couple hours with her all to myself... usually we've got our girls in tow and it makes having an uniterrupted conversation hard!

Hope you're learning some fun lessons this week!

Love,
