Ooooooh a Giveaway!


One of my fav designers Lila Tueller is having a fabulous givaway on her BLOG. Just look at this!!! I just love mixing fabrics (don'tcha know!) and I especially love to mix fabrics of different designers- this bag is a perfect example of why! Go leave her a comment for a chance to win it- but just so ya know I really really want it myself!

Oh, and my serger pooped out on me the other day so I am dying over hear waiting for it to get repaired. Here is the guilty party that broke it...

I made this for one of my wonderful buyers, for her daughter's 3rd birthday. I was just finishing the last rolled hem when the fabric flipped back up and got caught in the loopers- not a pretty sound! Thank goodness I finshed all the hems, because my bench-warming serger just won't do them. I should have one of these done in L2's size soon so I can list it.

Resell Time






Now, usually you will not find too many resells done by me..Why? Well, because I am a sappy sort of girl and if I can remember anything even remotely sweet, cute, or sometimes any ol' thing at all that happened while she was wearing an outfit I will hang on to it and put it in my "special" box of overflowing clothes in the back of her closet. For whatever reason I can't remember a thing that happened while she was wearing this one, so HERE ya go.....

My Sweet Little Potty Mouth

L2 has discovered that some words are just funnier than others....Robby just hates it when she says "butt" so he is constantly trying to correct her and make her say "bottom" instead. Well apparently there is nothing a fiesty almost 4 yr old likes to do more than irk her daddy because the more he says "bottom" the more ways she finds to talk about "butts". Today she says "Hey, a bug bit my BUTT!" Of course daddy tells her to say bottom, she snickers and says "A bug bit my bottom BUTT!" (say that 5 times fast :). He gives her a very disapproving glare and she responds "Hee Hee underwear! UNDERWEAR!!!!! BUTT!!! BUTT!! UNDERWEAR!!!" and then falls out of her chair laughing. I had to walk into the hallway and giggle myself!

Wanna see something FREAKY??


No really, look again...

Robby and my FIL took the kids to the Alligator Farm yesterday, and when they got home and I saw these pics I peed my pants. No I did not go, I would have been terrified at the first sight of them and snatched my babies and ran like the wind outta there. Both the kids thought it was the coolest place they had ever been and did not want to come home.

Yes, they are weird....

And act like monkeys...

Sweet dreams!

Christmas In July

Photobucket

Yes, it's that time agian. Here's my first holiday set. You will have to just imagine it with a cute short or long sleeve top underneath for those cool fall days. It is a sweltering 98 degrees with like 500% humidity here everyday so it was hard enough to get her in the jeans.

I love this picture so much, then when I got it on the computer I realized it looks like I am torturing my poor child to tears. I swear she is just squinting in the sunlight people. She was about to earn her next Puppy In My Pocket modeling treat, trust me she was happy!

I'm Whipped!


Oh my....I seriously cannot remember the last time I was this tired. I kept my sweet 17 month old niece (A) today. We had so much fun, but boy oh boy that girl can move. And with mine now at 6 and almost 4, our house is far from baby proofed anymore. Mine have already dismantled and outsmarted all the child locks from the cabinets and doors (shhh! don't tell hrs on me). And our house is like a sea of tiny choking hazards- our floors littered with miniature polly pocket shoes, lincoln logs and kinex. So unlike the old days when my kids were babies and I let then run free through the house, I had to be on serious duty today. Not to mention that when it is not my own kid, I feel a special obligation to make sure they make it through the day alive.


She really was a treat to have though. I loved watching L2 play mommy to her, breaking up all her food into tiny bites and leading her around the house offering her cheerios if she would just come follow her around. Not once did I hear the usaul drone of "mommmmmmmmmy who can I play with??!!"

L1 was in heaven too. Since his tag along little sis was occupied with her cousin all day, he was finally able to build his lincoln log cabins and hot wheel tracks in peace.
