Nothing can bring a smile to a mother's face like those three little words, "Time for bed".

So Sorry!

It has been approximately 9 months since my last post! I am so sorry! I have done a lot in the past 9 months. I have crafted, sewed, etsy craziness, cleaned, dejunked and grown a baby ;-) I promise to post very, very soon! I hope everyone is doing well! In the meantime I will share some photos from the last few months of what I have done :)

A Skirt for Em


 I have been sick the last couple of days :(  I'm still under the weather, but I am tired of laying around. So, I went in my oldest daughters room and found a pair of her jeans that had holes in the knees and decided to make a skirt. Waste not, want not!!  This was super easy and only took about an hour and a half  :)

Spring Break Crafting

Easter Bunny Masks

This was a very fun activity! It occupied the kiddos for at least an hour :)
 The Easter Bunny template is so cute and very easy for the kids to cut out...except for the eye holes.
We used cotton balls, crayons, pipe cleaners and jewels to decorate!
Give it a try! Enjoy!

Spring Break Crafting

  Little Yellow Easter Chick
Spring Break is here! The weather has been beautiful and I have to admit, it has been awfully nice not getting up at the crack of dawn :) But....the kids are kinda driving me nuts hehe! They have been bickering like you wouldn't believe and today I have a couple extra monsters running around! Yes, that makes 5 little monsters running around my house! So, I was thinking that maybe I could keep them all busy with Easter crafts!

Becca's blues and greens

 
All About the Blues and Greens!! I made this little outfit for my youngest daughter. "B" absolutely loves wearing it and I have to say, I L-O-V-E her in it! Enjoy!

15 Minute HairBand


I found out yesterday after the kiddos got home from school that they had picture day on Tuesday (today). Well, that sent me into a frenzy! I work 2 nights a week (Sunday & Monday) so my hubby has to get the monkeys ready for school Monday & Tuesday mornings. He does pretty good, but hair is NOT his specialty! Sometimes Em looks like she has a rat nest in the back of her head because she's just not that great at brushing it yet ;) So, I threw together a little hairband that would be cute and easy. I also left the hubs specific directions on how to brush her hair hehe!

Quilting for Triplets


One of my very good friends is having babies!! Yes, not 1 baby or 2 babies, but 3 babies! I'm so super excited for her and her hubby :) They are going to be amazing parents! Being who I am (ridiculous at times)....I decided that I wanted to make their baby gift. Did I go for stuffed animals or receiving blankets or burp clothes??? Oh, no! I'm going all out and making them all quilts! haha!  So, my goal for the next few months is to get them done! She is due in July, think I will have time? Sure hope so! This is going to be a several step process and I am by no means a wonderful quilter. Honestly, I have only ever made one real quilt in my life...I have a feeling there is going to be a lot of Googling to remember how to do certain steps.
Well here we go!!
