Welcome, Penelope!

We welcomed "Baby Robot", otherwise known as Penelope, into the world on March 9th. She is healthy and thriving and killing us with her cuteness!

The Calm Before the Storm

Tomorrow, at long last, is our baby girl's due date. Of course she doesn't know it's her due date, but still. It feels imminent. So we've just been hanging around the house, resting up and trying to make the most of these last few peaceful moments. All of our taxes are done, orders have been shipped, the fridge has been stocked. Above are a few snapshots from the last few quiet days. Little do these kitties know what's in store for them!

Inspiration

I was flipping through the MOMA Design Store catalog last night and got inspired for a new project. The images above (taken from the MOMA design store website) are screenprinted onto plywood squares. I love how the colors look against the naked wood. This is my next plan for my Gocco machine. It will likely have to wait until after the baby comes, though. My due date is in just 4 days! Hopefully our girl will wait until the weekend when the weather warms just a bit - our car is stuck in a pile of frozen snow right now. A fact that makes a certain couple of cats VERY happy...they were due for a teeth cleaning at the vet's! Now it looks like that will have to wait until after the baby comes, too.
