November Update

Hello friends. It's starting to get chilly here in Minnesota now! We're expecting our first snow tomorrow. The forecast is predicting up to 2 inches of snow fall. I am trying not to get too excited in case it doesn't happen.

Here's what else is new: We're still not finished with the house purchasing process, so it looks like it may still be a few weeks yet before we can move.  I'm just hoping it's in time to decorate and enjoy the Christmas season.

Baby D is doing well at 18 weeks, with a strong, quick heartbeat.  We find out his or her gender in a little over a week. I'm excited for that!

Also, I set up an Etsy shop this week, selling printed paper goods. So far I've only listed a couple sets of Christmas Card packs, but will be adding more to the shop soon.  I also started a Maren Layne Design page on facebook.  My sister, Dena, is designing a logo for me and I hope to get the shop and fb page updated with that soon too.

Oh, and here is a link to the knitted hat I mentioned in my previous post - I blogged it on my design blog.

I've also listed a FREE DIY DOWNLOAD for a Christmas Nut Jar for Dad (or other men in your life) on my design blog as well. So, if you need a gift solution for him, check that out.
