BEAUTIFUL BABY GIRL!















THANK YOU Lindsay for sharing pictures of beautiful Millie in this dress! It took me FOREVER to figure out how to get these pictures from my email account to my blog. I finally figured it out. I rarely get photos of kids in my clothes so when I do I get excited! Isn't this dress precious? It is so soft. The skirt is sewn right onto the onesie. The onesie is still all in tact and still snaps closed so it won't ride up. I know I usually go all out in pink and frilly for girls but sometimes it is refreshing to do other colors for girls. You can't have everything pink I suppose.
It is only 6:44 am and the kids are already wanting me to be some sort of a short order cook so this entry is going to be super short today. I need to wake up and get them some food before school! I hope everyone has a fabulous Wednesday!

BABY GIFT
















These pictures are of a gift that I will be giving one of my oldest and closest friends. She is due to have her baby any second now! I wish I could remember the name of these fabrics so I could tell you what they are b/c I think they are so beautiful. The blanket is backed in the most luxurious, softest material ever. It is called minky swirl and up close it kind of looks like little rosebuds. Babies love this fabric b/c it feels so good against their skin. I wish I had a blanket that soft! Most of my blankets that I have made lately are out of this material. The only down side is that it is a bit pricey. The only place besides online that I can find it is at Hobby Lobby. I always save my 40% off coupon and use it to buy it. If you buy it online it is even more that Hobby Lobby and you have to pay shipping too. I am anxious to give this to her and see how the onesie washes up. I used some iron on crystals on the shirt and I am so curious to see if they will hold up during several washings. I am nervous to actually sell shirts w/ the crystals b/c I am unsure of how they hold up. I love how it looks though. Okay-I guess it is time to be done with this entry because my four year old is crawling under my chair repeatedly asking me if it is time for lunch yet! Have a great Monday.
