Monster Pillow


Where the Wild Things Are is coming to theaters this Friday, so we've got monsters on our mind here! I was planning on taking Judah opening day to see the movie but we've made other plans for the weekend so our movie date will have to wait until next week. I am SO excited about this movie!! We have been reading the book nearly every day since early summer.

Last week I decided to try my hand at sewing Judah a monster stuffed animal. I used crayons to color a monster on an old pillow case, set it with an iron and then cut around the drawn image. Then I sewed it up, stuffed it and Judah now has his very own Wild Thing. (It was never suppose to resemble any of the Wild Things from the book!! Just sayin. My drawing abilities aren't THAT bad.)

It was so.so.so easy to make - and I don't even own a sewing machine! I hand stitched that monster. But with a sewing machine it would have been *extremely* easy to make!

God Grew Tired of Us



I just got this movie today from Netflix and watched it this evening (while folding those clothes I was trying so hard to avoid!) This movie is AMAZING!! Really makes you FEEL what these 'Lost Boys' went through when they came over to the USA, it made me laugh and it made me cry. I strongly recommend you rent it from somewhere and watch it!
