Babies grow way too fast

My son is a big boy for his age... he is 6 months old, 21lbs(last time we checked) and 28 inches long...and already wears a very fitted size 12 months. He has gone through a gazillion onesies and PJs since he was born (I have two HUGE totes full of 'em to prove it), and quite frankly this whole onesie business is gonna break the bank. So, I heard something about a ONESIE EXTENDER... looked around the net, found some but I do not feel like spending 10$ on 3 of those things. So, i did a little research for a tutorial and cant find that either.(if anyone has one please send it my way) I have decided to make a tutorial myself... WEEKEND PROJECT COMING UP! I will definitely put up pictures and try to be as detailed as possible. I am currently working on the details...

now, onto the PJs... those footed pajamas are excellent, HOWEVER, my kid's feet are all squished inside of it. Many of them he technically still fits into except for the length (mainly because of the feet) and I wanted a tutorial for removing them and maybe adding something to them.. I think i might have to work on that one too. Well, check me out Sunday night... ill have my tutorial up by then.

IM BACK!

Well, its been a while since the last time I wrote. In the past year i had an absolutely PERFECT, GORGEOUS, HAPPY baby boy. He is 6 months now and just AMAZES me a little more each minute of each day. I whinned a lot a while back about needing adventures, travel, excitement... WELL PEOPLE, I GOT IT!! and, its MORE than i could have ever asked for. I have honestly never known love, until i met my son for the first time. He took my breath away. After 2 hours and 43 minutes of active labor (pushing) he was born, a perfect 8lbs 1oz. He is the happiest, silliest, FUn-loving kid EVER and he has helped me find who I am... a mommy.


I have been thrifting a LOT lately.. its like therapy for me! and of course, cant say enough about my dollar stores. :O) LOVE THEM!

I actually found this awesome tutorial over at dollarstorecrafts' blog.... for making hurricanes for 2$ (they look great!) I think thats a project for next weekend!

WEll, bloggers, ill be here! looking forward to writing for you.

We are Expecting!

My husband and I found out 8 wks ago that we are expecting...WE are so umbelievably excited. After trying for about 6 months (which were really like 2 since he was sent away 3 times during our attempts) we finally have a baby on the way. My poor husband freaked out in the great way, and then reality struck him hard.. the poor guy had to call his parents for reassurance to ask them if they think he will be a good dad...well babe, You are going to be a GREAT DAD!!! i have never seen a man more concerned, excited, attentive and happy about his baby. He sings to our little beans, and talks to him/her and kisses the tummy in the morning and at night... I couldnt have picked a better daddy to be. I love you babe!!Though i must say that I HATE all of those pregnant women that are constantly talking about the magic of pregnancy and how great they felt, and how much they loved it... I AM NOT A GRACEFUL EXPECTANT MOTHER AT ALL!!!!!! I have been sick everyday since before I found i was pregnant and finally at 13 wks its begun to ease up during the day, but yesterday it was serious; projectile puke and all!! it got all over the walls, the floors, everywere EXCEPT the toilet. lol.. NOT COOL when I had a steak sandwich for lunch.

anyway, we have seen the bean twice and heard its little heart beat and daddy even has pics all over his office. Everyone thinks its a girl, but Im clueless.. Whatever you are, I LOVE YOU BEAN!!!!
