The Chair

This is what six yards of fabric and removing what seemed like a thousand staples will get you. Introducing...The Chair.
Before and After
I only impaled my hand on a broken upholstery staple twice. After using a butter knife for half of it, I remembered that I had a surgical steel staple remover in my car. Perk of being a home health nurse. It definitely sped the process along. Now I just have to find another fabric that I love so I can do the second chair for the family room. I'm thinking something along the lines of this.

And since I know the only reason most of my readers check my blog is for pics of Little Miss and to nag me about how you're her favorite aunt and how she wants to come and see you, I thought I better post some pictures today.

My child actually LIKES to sleep. If she is not ready to get up yet she does what we call "Playing Possum" and squints her eyes and holds as still as she can. It cracks me up. But then I'm easily amused.

Wow, what a shock she likes to sleep, where on Earth did she learn that habit I wonder? You are probably as sleep before she is when you are driving in the car.
