Hello everybody! I don’t have much to report today. Mom worked ten and a half hours on the day that we’re writing this, so she’s pretty tired.
Mom did just tell us that she ordered Logan from AG. That means we’re going to have another boy here! (Mom has a lot of girl AGs.) I’m looking forward to another boy that is our size! (With fingers that can type!)
We’re just going to leave this here, because Mom says we ought to go to bed.

See—even Oliver wants to go to bed!

This is going to be a short entry. Mom was reassigned to the picking part of Silver Star, and it is a lot of walking and walking and walking and walking. Mom’s feet have always been very picky, and this is not agreeing with them. We are writing this the day before because on the sixth, Mom has to work at SSB all day and then the bookstore all night.

Mom found this at an antique mall. It’s a tiny Dutch tile. I’m not sure what it is supposed to be for, but it’s going to go in the dollhouse. Mom thinks it’s screen printed rather than painted, but it only cost one dollar! Does anyone know if the flower/decorative things in the corners mean anything?
I hope that Mom will feel up to more of an entry next week! Hope you’re all having a great day!

Hello everybody! How are you? Things have been pretty subdued around here.
I have been going to Mom’s new job with her. I sit under her work table all day long! Boy, it’s nosy! She is working at an embroidery machine. She puts people’s names on their aprons, bible cases, totes, and baby bibs. Caleb, who has gone with her since the beginning, sits in the bag with me. We play on her ipad and phone and talk. It’s kind of crowded, but Mom needs the moral support! It’s kind of exciting too—it’s inside a factory! There are conveyer belts and everything.
This is what Mom’s embroidery machine looks like. She found a good picture of it on a Dutch website off all places. They were made in the late 1980s and early 1990s. They were made by a company called Barudan. Mom was looking for a history of Meistergram, but we’re not having much luck. There is a 135 article wiki on embroidery machines, which is really weird in it’s own right.
Thank you for listening to my talking. This is a really new experience for both me and Mom. She is worried about a lot of things, and I’m doing my best to help her. Researching things on the internet always helps!
Since an entry isn’t complete without a picture, here you have a new picture of Oliver!

I hope you all are having a great day! Talk to you later.

So Mom found herself a different job. She works at the same place that her sister does, but in a different building. She is learning to operate a an embroidery machine. It is big, fancy, and possibly older that she is.
Last night, we forgot to write an entry. So it’s actually really the day of, and Mom is extra tired. So we’re going to post this and then write next week’s. I hope you’re all having a great day!
