Productive

It has been crazy and busy around our house lately and it seems like all I ever do anymore, besides holding  Braelynn ALL the time, is clean and run kids from place to place.Well today I decided that I would do minimal cleaning and then I was going to get some projects done that I have been trying to do for awhile 2 of them are baby gifts and their babies are already 4 months and 2 months(oops).

Here is the blanket I made for my neighbors baby (who is 4 months now). This is a new design that I just bought and thought it was so cute that I had to try it out.

Here is the second blanket I made for another lady in our ward who's baby was born 4 days after Braelynn. I love this bear he is so cute.

I may be late getting them to them, but at least the blankets are big enough that they will be able to use them this winter.

I found this dress for Braelynn at walmart (for 5.00),it was plain with no flowers when I bought it (I forgot to take a picture of it before) and I looked at it at least 3 different times before I actually bought it.
I knew that I wanted to embroider something on it but I was not sure what. I was deciding between adding black and white, or a hot pink. Some of the ideas I had was the most obvious a bee, or a ladybug or butterfly, but then I decided that I wanted black and white and I did not want a bee because it was so obvious.  So I found the cute flower design and knew that that was what I wanted to put on it.

I love how it turned out. I can't wait until it actually fits her. I will be making her a hair accessory to match of course.

Here is a close up of the design. Now I am on the look out for clothes that are plain that I can add my own design to.

We have season tickets to the Blaze games, so of course she needs a game day outfit right? I was going to make her a skirt and then remembered that Halo Heaven had a black and orange petiskirt so I decided to just buy it instead of making it because for the price it was worth it. If you have never been on their website here is a link Halo Heaven. If you have girls and they love hair bows, and flowers and skirts, run don't walk and go check it out I love this site.

Anyway back to the outfit. I embroidered a football helmet onto a onesie to go with it and will be making a matching hair bow(I will post it when it is done.)

Here is a close up of the shirt. I just wish that I could find cuter plain white onesies...you know the ones with the cute puff sleeves. 

So even though I didn't get much cleaning done, I did get a lot done today and Braelynn ended up having to cry for short periods of time, but she survived.
