I started sewing this dress for Juniper TWO YEARS AGO when we first moved to Missouri. I accidentally made it way too big so I never finished it! And by “finish it”, I really mean, sew the button on. (I LOVE that big blue button! It matches the polka dots perfectly. See Cindy, I DO…
I officially have the coolest kids ever! I have been meaning to sew Juniper a Zelda dress for MONTHS (ever since Flynn’s birthday) and I’m so glad I finally got to it! Halloween makes a GREAT excuse to sew dress up clothes. Now Link and Zelda can both ‘feet Gannon’ in style. (I love how…
I made these pants for Juniper the other night. I almost didn’t even post them today because, well, they suck. But the story that goes with them is pretty entertaining, so here they are! The first time Juniper tried them on, she told me they were too tight. So I loosened them. “Still too tight.”…
It is cold outside!! Trying to get Juniper and Flynn dressed to play outside has been a little annoying lately, because I can never find their warm clothes. Oma bought them some long pants and shirts last week so it’s been a little easier, but they still need a few basics. So I’m using Kid’s…
I am going to preface this post with a little disclaimer: I absolutely love my job. I have been incredibly blessed and am so grateful that I’m able to make a living doing something I enjoy. With that said, I got to thinking the other night about my “dream job”. You know, what would I…
I had a kind of cruddy night last night. Mentally speaking that is. It was actually quite a nice evening, which always makes the random bummer mood for no reason extra annoying. But today is a new day, and these silly pictures from yesterday’s outside adventure put a smile on my face. If you are…
Is anyone surprised at the kids Halloween costumes this year?? Obviously, Flynn needs to be Link. He still wears his costume ALL the time, and runs around the house singing the Zelda theme song while whacking stuff with his sword. Juniper often grabs random dress up clothes and says she’s ‘practice Princess Zelda’ so she…
Day 338 Today I taught the kids a new game, acorn racing! It all seemed like a great idea, but when we pulled the stick, only ONE acorn took off rolling! The kids just pushed the rest and all was well. Juniper found a tiny friend on one of the acorns. Meet “Cutie” the Inchworm.…
First of all, WOW! I am so excited about all of the positive feedback and support I’ve gotten for my little big project! I have gotten so many emails and messages from people willing to help and I am just giddy about it. AND we’ve started getting a bunch of travel brochures in the mail!…
Day 333 I am always super grateful when my husband takes photos during the day for me. I love seeing their daytime lives, which I miss while I’m at work. Today they played outside in the neighbor’s dirt pile (which is in our yard, haha) and checked the mail. Day 334 The days are getting…
