Happy 3 Months Lainey!

I can't believe Lainey is already 3 months. Time really does fly by when your having fun! 3 months ago yesterday this little girl came into our lives and has made everyday better ever since. We both just can not believe how fast she is growing and how much more in love we are with her everyday. For her birthday we had a busy day. We went on a play-date to the park, we napped on the couch, i heart cuddle time, and when dad came home we went up to grouse mountain. It was a wonderful day! Here are some pictures!
Beautiful sunset!




Lainey's first fide on the gondola, she was so curious, she kept looking around at everything.





This is the park we went to. It was so beautiful!

Great Weekend!

Another weekend has come and gone! Time is just going by so fast these days. This weekend was really great. It was one of those days when you think, "wow my life is exactly what I want it to be, I couldn't be happier!". This is what I was thinking on saturday evening when Trevor, Lainey and I were walking home, on the seawall, from the grocery store. We did not do much this weekend but we really enjoyed each others company:)
Also on Sunday we got to go to our cousins little girl's first birthday! It was a great party and Lainey's first birthday party! I wish I took a picture of the two of them together but I was not able too, I believe when they were sitting beside each other I was in the massage chair. lol.

Her hair is really starting to grow in the front.

Lainey sporting her glasses from her friend Sophie!! She is looking pretty good!

Her exersaucer! She is a little too small for it but Trevor set it all up and we thought we would try it. He is NOT chocking her in this picture he just wanted to make sure her head was strong enough to hold up. But the look on her face in so sweet! I think the best thing about working on Saturdays is that her and Trevor are really bonding. She is just so in love with him, I think somedays he gets more smiles than me:(

Who me?
Looks like this outfit is too small but it actually fits perfect, I think it is just the way she is sitting.

So a great weekend and a great week ahead of us. We are going on our first play-day! I don't know about Lainey but I am very excited that we have made two new friends and that they have little girls the same age as Lainey!

First Video!

Here is a video of Lainey this morning! She is just so happy in the morning, it is my favourite time with her:)

Play Time!


It has been so hot here these days, well not today but the days leading up to today and I believe the days to come too. Poor little Lainey does not know how to deal with it but mama found a solution!
A water proof play-mat!
It was inspired from all the water proof picnic blankets I was making. We even tried it out and it was a great success. Lainey loved it and our couch is soil free. If anyone out there needs one let me know, they are quick and easy to make and do not take up too much material.

Picnic Blanket Take Three

First off my last post did not have any pictures of Lainey and she was missed. Here are some from the last few days. It has been hot here in Vancouver so we have been having a lot of naked mat time. I finally captured her smile!



She loves watching those fish! I catch her smiling at them all the time!
Now for the third picnic blanket. This one is the same as picnic blanket take two but in different colors. It will also be on my etsy shop!

Picnic Blanket Take Two.

The best thing about doing the same project a second time is that your mind evolves and it usually turns out better. A couple of post ago I made a picnic blanket for my friend Jen and I loved how it turned out. Now I have made another one and I have changed a few things. This picnic blanket is square, there is no batting in the middle and the backing is a think water resistant nylon. Now it is not as soft as picnic blanket one but it is more compact and sturdy. I guess it really depends what you are looking for. It will be on my etsy shop soon.




This picnic blanket measures 53 1/2" x 53 1/2".

Table Runner

First here are a dew pictures of Lainey at 2 1/2 months. The first picture is of her in her new ergo carrier, both mom and Lainey love it! The other two pictures are just for fun!


This table runner is for my mother, who has been waiting for it so patiently. Since she was so patient I decided to make it reversible, this way it is kind of like I made her two! So think of it as your mother's day gift for this past year as well as next year! Just kidding! Hope you like it!



We also got great news today! Grandma is coming for a visit!!! Maybe grandpa will come too?
