Matching Dresses - Swoon!

I've been really loving sewing lately, and decided I needed to make some dresses for the girls, this is what I came up with:

Pillowcase dress for The Kid #1

Pinafore Crisscross Dress for The Kid #2 

Aw!! I can't wait to get them on the girls for pictures, I'm working on matching ruffle-butt bloomers for each of them, and plan to make matching sunhats as well :)

Let's Go Fly a Kite!

Pure Joy!

Handmade baby gifts

Recently one of my college besties had her baby shower I tried to make as much of her gift handmade as I could, here's what I came up with, all the patterns were found on pinterest (follow me HERE), except the paci clips, those I just "winged it"

Ring sling

Pacifier Clips

Infinity Nursing scarf

Nursing cover w/ boning

Yours truly "modeling" the nursing cover (I loved it so much I made myself one too!)

Cousin Fun!

I'm very lucky to have a super adorable niece who's only a couple months older than The Kid#2, although to look at them you wouldn't know they're 2+ months apart since my baby's so big they're just about the same size. Anyway recently we were able to get together a couple times and have some fun... here's a few photos of the girls :D

Since we're playing catch-up!

Quick, Look The Kid #2 is already 2 months old :D

Now don't blink!

And asleep for her photos

so we waited until the next morning, and took some awake ones:

Look at all those rolls! Nom Nom Nom. Yummy Baby Rolls!

Thrifting deal of the day!

Deal of the Day 

A few months ago I bought these 15-20 Little People talking zoo animals at Catholic Charities Thrift Store in a couple grab bags I spent about $2 total (See that post Here) and they're worth at minimum $4 each animal.  They've been a ton of fun for The Kid on their own. She loves to talk about the animals and what they say, and their names.

Then today on the Infant/Children's swap I found the zoo that they go with for $5!!!!! Best price I found on Ebay for the same thing was $25! So for a total of $7 I have a little people set that would have cost me well over $50 that's practically brand new. I didn't even have to put batteries in it, it still works :D  Happy thrifty Momma right here! I cannot wait to see The Kid's face when she gets up tomorrow morning to see this new playset.
