7 Months!



No worries we have now purchased our apartment safety kit. Our place has to be BABY PROOF since we have a crawling (army crawling) baby. Trust don't let the army crawl fool you, she can get around just as fast and maybe even sneakier than a normal crawl. She is so eager to get up and walk but not strong enough, so she's had her falls. Like always her smiles are constant and is constantly alert to her surroundings. Nothing escapes her from the people at the grocery store to mom getting a bite of food. I love our little girl and she just loves her cuddles and kisses. We are so filled with joy as we watch her grow and learn more and more every day. She is 7 months today woohoo!

First Camping Trip!

First camping trip for Catherine and she loved it. She loves just staring at the trees and being outside. We camped with Grandma and Grandpa Hall and had so much fun. They had their camper we had our tent because Catherine didn't like to be in the camper and she slept so good in the tent. We had yummy dutch over meals and breakfast and of course SMORES! I love smores so we had to have them.

I Support You!

I love this article and wanted to share it with all the moms. There is no right or wrong way to feed your baby. For all moms and babies feeding is a way for bonding which ever way you choose to do it.
After reading this article i decided to share my own photo  because I SUPPORT YOU!

My baby girl has been breastfed since she was born.
She's is 6  months old and still going strong.
What matters is that she is fed, happy and now napping.
I SUPPORT YOU!

Diaper Disaster!

Here is a question for you moms. What's the worse diaper disaster that you've had to encounter with your babies? What's the different places you've changed a diaper?Here is mine today!
Though this might be a bit too much info for some of you, I think most parents can handle it. So Catherine had not had a bowel movement for three days and it started to worry me. But the end of my worries was soon here, at the grocery store, and it wasn't pretty. As I start to check out I notice the big orange spot on the back of her shirt and the awful smell, yup diaper disaster!  I actually caught the register guy looking at it, you can even see his nostrils flaring from the smell. the bathroom was not an option there were two mamas in there already. the car was my only alternative. the only problem was how to change her with out causing a mess. Once I was about to get her out of the shopping cart it all started to come out from the top of her shirt. It was a mess! So I pulled out the changing pad lots of grocery bags and laid her in the seat. After a few comments and ugly stares from people thirty minutes later I was done! Successfully done that is, call me super mom if you will because with my wiggly baby it all could've gone south. So what's your story with Diaper Disaster?

Keep in mind that this is before it all got worse!


Skirts!

So a while back I made these with of course some instruction and help of a friend. I'm still in the process of making my third one. I also made a really cute one for my sister-in law who left on an LDS mission 6 months ago hers I made a bit longer since it was required, but it turned out amazing. I love making these because there is so much you can do with them and get really creative. If you are interested I'd love to make you one email me or comment and we can set something up. The skirt can be the color, design, and length you desire. These are great skirts specially for sister missionaries who are having a hard time shopping for skirts.

      These were my first two. 

        The pattern for the one I am making right now.

        And this is the adorable skirt for my sister-in law. I love the fabric she chose.
