Addison and Tabletop Tuesday

Hi All!
I have been trying so hard to get a post out.  But with part- time work and full-time babysitting duties I just seem to be getting farther and farther behind.
My little drooly grand-daughter!  She is teething like crazy now and I feel so bad for her.  But somehow she still keeps a smile on her face!  She is such a good little baby!

See what I mean? 
Her little face just lights up when she smiles!

So my blogging has fallen behind and I have missed a whole bunch of fun blog parties.
I had wanted to join my friend Marty's cloche party.  I just never got to it. 



So I made a little counter arrangement in belated honor.


And I added a little Chicky and wooden apples to my homemade cloche.  This consists of a cheese dome, a plate I had decoupaged and  little stand I found at GW for $2.
So that's my itty bitty entry to Marty's party.  Please join her at A Stroll thru Life for Tabletop Tuesday.
We are back to winter here for the first week of spring.  Last week was beautiful and I saw hope on the horizon.  Now there predicting a snow storm for us on Wednesday.  Oh I do hope they are wrong.
Now don't forget me!  I will be around to visit as much as I can!

  1. You are too hard on yourself Cindy. We all understand where you're coming from... life sometimes happens and other things take a backseat.
    You post when you can... and I'm here when you do... oohing and aahing at all you post on your blog.
    My goodness Cindy, I could no more than work part-time and babysit full-time! You are amazing if you can do all that AND add anything else.
    All to say, I'm your biggest fan... so be easy on yourself in this season of your life.

Seems like just yesterday you were sharing newborn pics with us and now she is teething, smiling and drooling all at the same time! She is already a multi-tasker!! LOL!

  11. Her little face just makes me happy! I didn't realize you were full time babysitter! That is a big job! We are still really warm here today for this time of year (high 70's) but the storms come tomorrow and then back to the 40's for the rest of the week:(

  22. She is so sweet Cindy, I don't know how you do it all, don't be so hard on yourself, I only babysit 2 mornings a week and I'm retired and just do Etsy and ebay and I'm tired. Don't feel bad, those special moments with her are way more important than blogging! Hugs, she is Too Cute! Marilou xoxox

  26. Hi Cindy! Little Addison is PRECIOUS. I totally get where you are in life right now...it's a tough place to not spend every waking moment with these grandies, isn't iT? I've found it challenging as well to keep up with blogging as much as I'd like to. We'll figure it out...the most important thing is in front of us, these little babes from heaven. :) Hugs friend! Thx for stopping by to say hi recently.

  27. Hi Cindy! I know what you mean about being busy! I love that little gingham plate with chicky under the cloche. That is adorable! But sorry, nothing you do is going to top that beautiful baby! She does have one of those joyful smiles for sure. It just shows that she has a beautiful spirit too. She is precious!

  28. Addison is certainly little Miss Fashion...so cute! I know what you mean about being so busy and blogging falling by the wayside even when you don't want it to. Having 16 student teachers to supervise along with grandchildren duties and a few other things has kept me busier than a bee at a flower festival. I'm ready for some R&R!

  32. What an adorable, happy baby girl! Is there anything better than being a Grandmother? I think not!

  33. Hi Cindy, I know about those grandies....they are so special and desire all the time we can give to them! Great cloches anyway! Linda

  34. Oh Cindy, that Addison is just too precious! I can't look at that sweet, smiling face without breaking into a huge grin myself. Love the little headband with the flower on it. I know you are having such fun. Your vignette is so pretty, and how smart of you to use that $2 stand for your cloche display. Glad to see you are using the little "cherry" bowl, and I like your plate on the wall above it. Don't worry ~ you are unforgetable! laurie

  35. Hi sweet friend...

    Ahhh...it's sooo true! Your little Addison really does light up when she smiles!!! Bless her little heart...I really hate the teething thing! My heart always goes out to these sweet babies when they are getting their little toofers in! Cindy, she looks sooo darn cute in that pink and green outfit...simply adorable!!! How many days a week are you keeping her now? I remember you saying that Katie was going to nights. Does that change your babysitting times? Well sweet friend, no worries about this blog thing! Like Gloria said...the blogs will always be here...and getting to spend these time with the grandbabies is so precious! Jenni told me that they may be coming up this weekend but I haven't heard back from her. Guess I will call tomorrow to see what's up. I'm sooo excited to see her and my five grands!!! They are all growing up on me...sure hate that I'm not closer!

    Well dear friend, I love your pretty splashes of spring color through all the fruit and veggies that you added to your counter! Sooo pretty! And your spring cloche is just darling with the little chick and apples! Thank you for sharing your pretties with us, my friend! Well Darlin', I will talk to you later...you guys take care and stay warm! Spring really IS on its way!!!

    Love ya,
    Chari

    PS...just got my second issue of my Taste of Home mag yesterday. It really has some great recipes in this one! I have plans to try at least a couple of them!

  36. Cindy, I completely understand about being behind. Life keeps throwing me curve balls.

    I adore Addison's cute outfit and that bow! Oh, how adorable. She just gets cuter and cuter and cuter. Like her grandmother! :-)

    XO,
