No Moore Rooster

Yes, it is a very random title (thanks for noticing). But, there is a great story behind it. Okay, maybe not so great a story… more like “typical.”

About a week ago, my husband and I noticed intermittent rooster crowing. Since none of our neighbors had gotten a rooster, we knew it had to be coming from one of LM’s toys. I finally discovered that the crowing came from a tractor toy that has been thrown down the stairs (by LM) a number of times, and so the wiring is probably all screwed up inside.

Well, after a week of hearing the darn thing crow at all hours… I finally took the batteries out today. No Moore Rooster. Yeah, I told you… not a great story… just “typical.”

Removing batteries from toys isn’t all that I’ve been up to… I’ve also finished up these jammies. The bottoms are from a pattern I made, and the top is a 90 minute shirt a la Dana from Made. This is my first attempt at a 90 minute shirt, and it lived up to the name. I got it done in about 90 min! I also was able to up-cycle a free t-shirt my husband got that he was NEVER going to wear (he’s not a big fan of teal – actually he’s not a big fan of most colors). I’ll be making more of these, but in the future, I’ll use more narrow ribbing at the top… I think it looks a little strange with it so wide here.
