My Maternity MooMoo

And here it is folks... me in a moomoo with 60 lbs of of maternity weight gain. No worries, this is my third pregnancy and every single one I gained the same 60 lbs. I'm schedule to be induced on Monday. Any bets on how big this baby's going to be? I fed her a lot of of ice cream and hot cocoa these past nice months ;)

I intend to live in this moomoo for the next two weeks. It's super comfy, and the shoulders come completely unsnapped for convenient nursing.


I fell in love with this fabric at Joann's. Usually I'm a bit of a fabric snob, but I totally give this non-designer print a huge thumbs up. Check out those adorable little bees!


Wish me luck!

Valentine's Cheese


While sewing a mother/daughter top and dress set for a friend, Ashlyn asked me if I could make her a dress too. With Valentine's Day around the corner, I figured I'd make it red and pink with a ruffle heart embellishment. Cheesy, I know.... these pregnancy hormones make me do crazy things.



Oh, and here is the mother daughter set:



And here's a pic of Denny and Ashlyn... I thought it was so cute that Ashlyn slung her arm around Denny while he was reading to her. He rolled his eyes, but let her keep her arm there. Such a good big brother :)


ps... I sewed myself the cutest moomoo the other day. Truly, it's pretty rockin' as far as moomoos go... picture to come.
