Okay so I'm a really lazy blogger these days. I've finished up a lot of things, but I've been too lazy to take any pictures and then post them. But I finished up these two projects last week and they turned out super cute.
First off....a receiving blanket for the little buddy! I used cotton fabric instead of flannel since he's my summer baby. I also made it bigger than other receiving blankets in the past. Instead of sewing an "X" through the middle, I did an outline of a car. (can you even see it??) I also put a piped edge around it. I love how it turned out!
And now meet Boo! I've made special lovies for each of our kids (minus the oldest...). And they've all become attached to them. This time I didn't know what I wanted to make. I didn't want it to be the same as I did for Jack, in case Jack just laid claim to them. I surfed around Etsy and found something like this! I thought they were totally cute and different and thought "I can make that!". So I did. They're pretty cute, huh. The first one I made is really big, then I tried to make them a little smaller so that they aren't the same size as the baby. Hopefully he likes them as much as our other kids do!
Boo!

Very cute.... I could see Kai chewing on those little Boo's, he has two teeth and isn't even 6 mo. and he also likes to bite down hard on fabric and then rip it out of his mouth between his teeth. I think my child is a may have issues
So, I have another project for you. I'm going to need another stocking for me baby! Pretty please? We've decided on Jovie, and she has to have one like the rest of us, or it wouldn't be the same!!! Name your price! And remember how much you love me.
So fun to hear from you. I actually had seen this blog before and enjoyed reading it before I even knew it was you. Weird! I just can't believe you have four kids now. I would really like to see your pictures on your other blog. I can not see Todd's either. We love Pageant. It is becaue of your family that we do pageant. We came to see you in it and vowed that we would one day do it. This will be our third summer in a row. We all love it. The twins want to sign up for work crew next year. We'll see. You are very crafty! I miss those days.
Also what an exciting place to live. We spent three years in Germany and loved the travel. Since then we have lived all over the US now we are back in Ohio, Dayton, but are ready to move again this next summer.
Okay, so the name is now Zoey... but I'm still begging for the stocking!!!! Email me, please!
Love! And I think that having multiples is brilliant-- the world would grind to a halt if my two year old ever lost his (one) cherished blankie.
