New Bag!!

My new purse. I bought the pattern intending on making shopping bags for when I go grocery shopping at the local shops. But them I made it and decided that I wanted to just use it as a purse, so now I have 2 purses, lol. And they look exactly the same. But I really like it and it has been used a lot already.



For those of you that are going to ask for pictures of Lainey, they are coming, I will post her 4 month post this week.

Busy Weekend, Even Busier Week

Hope everyone had a great weekend!!! We sure did, although it went by way to fast. Here are a ton of pictures of Lainey from the past couple of days. I should have a ton of pictures to come too. This week is Trevor and my birthday, Lainey's 4 months, grandma's birthday and best of all Grandma is coming on sunday!!!! We are really looking forward to this week. Oh and I think this means a ton of cake!!!! Although I don't really need it because Lainey and I are starting a workout class this week, but you know I will have it:)

Trevor snapped this picture this morning before he left for work. You see Lainey does start in her crib every night, but by 1am you can find us like this. Now for all of you anti baby in bed people, would you be able to resist this!!! It is truly the best feeling in the world to wake up beside her, sorry Trev:) The other day I woke up and looked at her and she gave me the biggest smile ever, I have no idea how long she was awake for, she must have known mom needed her sleep that day:)
This weekend Trevor taught Lainey how to hold a toy and how to bring it too her mouth. You see we can see Lainey's teeth starting to come in and she wants everything in her mouth, usually we hold it for her, but she is old enough now to do it. Great job Trevor you are an amazing dad!

Taste SOOOO good!
Once again I LOVE those eye!
This is a picture of Lainey's area in the main room. I got Trevor to put up these hooks awhile ago, and I just love them. It really completes her area.
This past weekend I lent my ergo insert to my friend. So I decided to pull out a sling I had bought before Lainey was born. I had tried it once when Lainey was really small and did not like it, but I thought why not try it again. And guess what we both love it! Here are a few pictures of Lainey and I. Oh in the picture below you might notice my bangs are short. This morning I had enough and decided to cut them...big mistake!!!!! Will I ever learn not to cut my own bangs....I'll be 29 this week so I am thinking NO. lol

She can not resist sleep when she is in here.
Here's is a picture prior to scissors, who see I had to do something! Oh and you might notice I am giving Lainey a run for her cheeks....too much ice cream.
Lainey taking the world in!
Love those eyes!!

Tummy time is not so bad anymore.

Hope everyone has a great week too!

1...2...3.....

I took a class the other night at this awesome fabric store. The owners, super cute, decided they wanted to open a place that was more geared towards people who love to sew, or want to sew, and want a place they can hang out and do so. The class was made up of 6 people and unlike other sewing classes/quilting classes everyone was my age:) It was a fun night and I learnt a lot and meet some nice people. It is also where my local Modern Quilt Guild meets. Unfortunately Lainey had a hard time sleeping today so I missed the meeting to take care of her and typical she has been sleeping for over an hour, pretty much the whole time of the meeting. Anywho there will be more. Where was I going with this......................oh ya, BINS!!!!!! Not just any bins fabric storage bins. Melissa had asked me to make some for little Colin for his new room, and of course I said Sure!!! I do not have his material yet, it is in the mail. So I made some for Lainey's toys. Here they are, I love them.....



Also I decided to add a matching blanket to one of the wipe cases I made and give it as a gift. I need to make more of these small blankets, they are perfect for the stroller/carseat and it is getting colder.
I have a video of Lainey that I took today, I will try to upload it later, it takes foooooorever!

New Listing

I have a new listing on my etsy shop. Inspired by a gift I received when I first has Lainey and a friend wanting me to make her one. I thought oh maybe I will make a couple. They are quick and fun to make and turn out beautiful. Plus this way you can still have some style with your baby, lol. I just have to figure out why Canada Post charges so much for shipping.......

A few more Pictures of Miss L.


With her new headband! Can't wait till she has more hair:)

We went to the PNE with some friends on the weekend (for those of you back east it is like the X). She got to see her first Parade, play with her friend Claire and take lots of naps. There was so much for her too see there. Oh and she saw a lot of animals too, although she did not seem to react to them.



A couple of weekends ago we went to a baseball game. Lainey loved it and most of all she just LOVED the fireworks, her eyes were glued to them.

Cuteness!

Too much cuteness for one post!!!! Today Lainey and I decided to take some photos! My favourite is the last one. Enjoy!!!

Special Delivery!

Since I can't blog about the beautiful fabric I get in the mail because my husband would kill me if he knew how much I actually bought, lol, I will tell you about this beautiful hat! Aunt Melissa bought this beautiful hat for Lainey and we received it today:) It is a little big but will be perfect for fall and winter. I took a couple of pictures of her in it today. Oh and the flower comes in several different colors, so we can switch it up! Here are a few pictures!

I think she likes it!

Also Lainey's neck is really strong now. She loves to sit up and stand up. She try's to sit up on her own but her upper body is not strong enough but not to worry mom and dad help her:) She also loves sitting in her Bumbo chair! Here are a few pictures, I swear I didn't pose her for any of them!
Oh and did I mention she has discovered the t.v. and seems to really like it, lol, just like mom!

On a sad note, Lainey is not too into cuddling with me after she eats. She use to love eating and sleeping on me, wish I knew how that this would not last long. But on a good note she did fall asleep on me the other day for the first time in weeks and I ate it up. I just sat there and enjoyed every second. I hope she does this more and not less.
We also had two play-dates this week and had so much fun, we love our new friends and can't wait for the day Lainey wants to play with them:) Hope everyone has a fantastic long weekend!
