I just wanted to share with everyone some of the things I’ve made as gifts. I haven’t kept up on posting them all,  so here goes…

This little pink one kind of slipped while I was making it (from the super soft material), so I had to make adjustments. It’s suppose to resemble Boo Bear. I made this one recently for my husband’s friend, Dave, had a newborn baby girl.
 

These two are also Boo Bears. They were made for my husband’s friend, Jason, who had twin babies! Yay for twins!!

Here are the cutest little Whimsy Dolls, called Wittle Whimsies…
These were my first attemps. I made them with care bear material. I didn’t really take my time sewing and it shows in the crooked little doggie head. But they are still cuties. These are headed for an orphanage in Mexico, along with the next one below.


I do like the colors of this one a wittle better 😉 lol.

Here is a bunny I made.  My daughter wanted a Velveteen Rabbit so I made this with super soft minky and a Christmas fabric, added a puffy tail too.


I am working on some Mae Dolls. I will try to remember to post when they are done 😉 My daughters both put in their request and I have some special girls (family) to make gifts for. All these adorable patterns are from Bit of Whimsy Dolls. You can buy the patterns or dollies for yourself  **here**.

On another note, I am finishing up on a digital scrapbooking kit… Vintage kit, loves floral, tattered edges etc. Can’t wait to release it 😉

What have we been up to lately….
We had Valentines Day. Got flowers from Daddy (got them a few days early), and chocolates, not pictured (yummmm). We do things kind sporadically here. There are no rules. Sometimes he will get me a necklace, sometimes just a card, but in our house, we like it that way. No rules, no expectations or hurt feelings. We are simply happy either way…

This year we made cookies for Daddy…
*idea came from here*

Can you tell he likes Spiderman. Once I saw this idea (link above) I just had to make these! Didn’t they turn out awesome. We made them lemony 😉
My little baby H puts her own touch…

From my little A, my 3 year old…

My oldest K decorated these…

I put the eyes on that one for her.

And then they wanted to package them all up for him, so we did…

packages tied up with strings…my favorite things 😉

Steak dinner to top off the day. The End.

Here’s what the roses look like now. They started to wilt, so I cut them down to nothing (so they can drink) and put them in a bubble vase. They perked right up.

Okay so, this is a typical scene at my house. One child really upset and the other is really happy…usually at the expence of one another…. little stinkers! The little one, just along for the ride! lol.

Hey all. So, I found this shirt in K’s closet (my 5 yr old). It was all plain & boring & needed some sass. It never got worn. By the picture, I think she likes it. It was totally inspired by Bit of Whimsy Doll’s Olivia Owl pattern, which I would have used if I didn’t have to print it out. Had to eyeball it. But, not bad, right!?!

So H woke up yesterday and showed interest in her little Potty chair again. I put her on here and she went tinkle and uckies! Yayay! That was awesome. So his morning when she woke up I took he again and she went again. What a big girl! Oh no, I just realized my baby is growing up…waaaaahaaaaa. Here she is getting to lounge around in her training panties…a treat away from those thick ol’ diapers!
