My friend, Missy, had her second baby recently. I was ready with some handmade baby gifts – more burp cloths and appliquéd onesi’s. I love the bugs on these. How perfect for a baby girl!
My handmade gifts were not what she needed! I guess I’ll keep them handy for the next person I know who has a baby girl.
Sorry, Missy, give me some time and I’ll give the little man and the big brother a sweet little gift.
We have a creek that runs along the back of our property. Recently, we have created a path to it. The kids love the path. They have yet to discover how much fun it is to play in the creek, but I know that will come over the years.
Tonight, after work, instead of heading in straight for dinner, the warm evening air and sunshine kept us out. We went to the creek!
On the way there, we had so much fun finding things
A pine cone, two “flowers” (AKA weeds, but to the innocence of a child, it’s a flower), a large leaf, and
I have it in between some wax paper in a book right now. I’d like to frame it and hang it in her room. What a token of luck!
The spring weather we had last weekend got me in the mood to not only garden, but make some more handmade clothing for Corinne.
Poor Nathan, I still have yet to make him some clothing…it’s on the list. Girl clothes are just so darn much CUTER than boy clothes!
A new skirt :)
I’d like to also get a new dress or two for her in.
And I am still making progress on Nathan’s quilt. I ran out of white for the sashing, otherwise, the top would be done. I need to get this done soon. The poor guy is about to climb out of his crib. He really could if he tried hard enough.
Open windows.
Outdoor wildlife.
A 4 year old’s version of a flower for mommy.
Hunger for color in the yard.
