Have You Ever?

February 4th, 2009

Gotten the stomach bug at 33 weeks pregnant along with your 2 1/2 year old?  That was our lot for the latter part of the weekend.  I didn’t know if I was having contractions or about to throw up.  It was grueling!  Mike was our hero, held our hair back, gave Noelle lots of midnight baths, did laundry till I thought our washer was going to break, cleaned like a champ, and nursed us back to health.  Thank God for Michael Pond!  It is Wednesday and although we are still weak, we are so much better now!

Mom & Me!

My mom popped in for 24 hours this weekend, and boy was she a blessing!  She helped me finish up some projects that have been twirling around in my head for a while now.  These are all Noelle’s onesies that we added ribbon and fabric to for Anna Kate.  We also made some bows, pillowcases, and burp cloths.  I think the total cost was around $15.00 for all of the above – I used all my scraps and bought remnants online.

Mike and Noelle wanted in on the action.  Mike made this iron-on Hello Kitty onsie (he did so great), and Noelle helped us put together fabrics and trims (scraps that she and Rara were calling her "mediums").  The pic on the right is one she created for the Prince family to thank them for some treats they gave her last weekend.
