Well...almost. The red velvet cakes are cooling, and the cake-ball-making will happen either tonight or tomorrow. But! THE LLAMA IS FINISHED! Woo!
Would you like to see him?
Isn't he cute? He's already wrapped in tissue paper (complete with shiny bow), and ready to go under the tree. And he's perfectly baby-sized. I really like how he turned out!
Did I mention the shopping is done? We're mostly doing stockings this year, but as our family stockings are stretchy, some slightly larger items fit too. And of course we all went a little overboard with things for Little V, haha! I did the very last of my shopping today, and really it was more to pick up cards than anything else. I did get a neat little cookbook for my older niece, who's a freshman at the University of Michigan and keeps complaining that she can't cook - it's geared towards college students (in both skill level and budget), I hope she likes it! I also picked up some onesies for Little V - they're bright and covered in robots and stripes, and decidedly Not Pink, which I think my sister will appreciate. We grew up wearing things of all different colors, I don't understand why absolutely everything for little girls has pink on it now.
And I picked up this:
For myself! I have a yen for all things space-and-galaxy related, so a blown-glass retro rocket ship? Yes please - especially since it was on sale. :o)
Ok, off to shower and start the frosting before I go to E's for the night. Oh, and laundry! Holy cow, I almost forgot!
