Today we were quite creative.
I dusted off the good ole sewing machine (Figuratively. Not literally. I hate dusting.) and hemmed up the edges of my homemade woven wrap.
It's just a 6 yard x 30 inches piece of fabric. You seem to like it quite a bit. Guess you could be so happy there cause you're squatched right up against me. I'll have some work ahead of me figuring out all the different ways to tie you to me though.
You always loved the moby wrap. Boy, do I miss those first few trips we took to walmart. I'd pop you into the moby and you'd fall right asleep against me. Scratching my chest with your crazy fingernails. (remember how I quit cutting them?!?) Now with this new wrap I can tie you up on my back. So hopefully we'll be using it on a trip to walmart soon!

The other creative thing we did was make "Better than Sex Pie" Yuhhhuuhhuuummmy!
You were on my back while I made it. I think I danced more than I normally would have. Dancing while making it is just like working out, right?
Anywho, here's the recipe:
(Not sure who Bonnie is.)
Fun fact: I texted Uncle Cris to see if he'd have Aunt Beth give me the recipe. Instead of a written out recipe I got these pictures. AWESOME! :)
Gramma Sue used to make this. Whenever I taste it I can close my eyes and be 6 years old in Waldron at her house on Bruce Court. It's a time machine. Maybe that's what I should call it...
Wende's Wonderful Time Machine Pie
I do like that title. But it's definitely not my recipe so I can't claim it. So, "Better Than Sex Pie" it shall remain.
