Nice Lucy returns

Lucy has been going exceptionally well. I've been on her here and there and she has been happy and well-behaved. I did contact the chiropractor and saddle fitter to have her checked out but honestly, I think she's fine and was just having a bad week when she was showing a bit of 'tude.

Amanda has also been having good rides. Here are some shots from the other day:


I sucked at photography on this day, unfortunately!

cute, y/y??
mostly I just snuggle with her and clean up after her :)
Baby Taylor is getting bigger and I finally felt her kicking last weekend. I was so happy! I had my 5 month ultrasound yesterday and everything looked great.

hellooooo, baby!
We've been working on some fairly significant home renovations, too:

this WAS our apartment that we rented out, but it will soon be a big family
room with a huge couch and a nice big TV to enjoy. I'm excited! We are also
re-doing our main bathroom, and of course the baby's room has to be done too.

Kenny and my Dad, who is an electrical engineer, sorting out the wiring
Cairo has even been helping! Here she is approving of the hardware Kenny needed
at Home Depot. I love that they allow dogs in there!

occasionally I lend a hand, too. Here I am nailing up the new insulation. Goooo preggo!
As you can see, life is pretty busy but I am still around! I'm also starting to work on Christmas orders for saddle pads and ornaments so if you're thinking about ordering something, please get the orders in asap so I can budget time appropriately. Examples and prices are over at Polar Square Designs.

Also, check out the contest over at Equestrian at Hart to win a jar of Higher Standards Leather Care soap!

  2. Very exciting! Glad that Lucy is doing well. I'm sure that your babies room will be adorable. Are you going to do any fun painting on the wall?

    Lowes is my preferred store and they allow dogs as well which is awesome :)

    1. We haven't totally decided on what the room will be, but I'm thinking light grey walls, white furniture, and pink/white/silver accents in the room.

  4. Great Pictures! Congrats on a happy 5 month appointment and for helping with the construction project.

    I just lost my heart horse (you can read about her at mistresstrinity.blogspot.com). I love the crochet horse your friend did and emailed her. I am interested in your ornaments too. How much are the ornaments?

    1. I'm sure I'll get there eventually! Actually this week I have felt a little bigger each day. I guess it's catch-up time!

  6. You look fantastic! What fun that you still steal a ride :) Btw I wanted to give your saddle pads a HUGE testimonial. I've washed mine several times and the paint has not budged and still looks as good as the first day. I do dry hang it per your suggestion :)

  8. Do you think a 15 year old girl who has everything would like a pad designed by you? Didn't even think of it!
    Baby Taylor looooves Starbucks!

    1. I think she may be the type who has specific pads she likes to use, maybe check on that first?

  9. Looks like. You've been really busy. I love to remodel too. I'm sure you'll love it when it's done. That's the best part, enjoying what you worked hard to achieve. Good luck.
