In eight days my precious baby girl will no longer be a baby anymore she will be a toddler!!! I can't believe this year has pasted by so quickly...I'm not ready for her to be a big girl yet!!! Don't get me wrong I am sooo excited for all the 1sts yet to come and all the things she is learning I just don't think I'm ready to let go of her being my baby!!! Maybe its because I don't know if we will have anymore kids or maybe its just because she is a girl but I wasn't near as upset about Bryson turing 1 as I am about SaraKate. Oh well....she is going to turn 1 weather I like it or not so here are a few new pics of my baby girl!!!

New Adventure...Into the world of sewing!!!

My grandmother tried at an early age to teach me how to sew. I however had little to no interest. Fast forward 15ish years I now have a child of my own and I want to make her all of the cute little dresses that are "so easy to make". My grandmother was beyond delighted when I asked for a sewing machine for Christmas.
I opened my sewing machine on Christmas morning and was VERY excited to start my sewing journey, but I was delayed when SaraKate was hospitalized. I have been working with my machine for a few weeks now and I feel like I have finally found my groove. So far I have only made simple burp cloths and my favorite little girls dress...the pillowcase dress. I am currently perfecting my pattern and will soon open up an etsy shop. For now I leave you with my most recent dress I made for a friends baby to be and all my mess of dresses pinned and waiting to be sewn.

New Year New Look!

It 2011!!! Things have finally slowed down here now that SaraKate is feeling better! We were released from the hospital on Wednesday 12/29/10. It was a long 4 days!!! She has a recheck tomorrow with her Pediatrician just to make sure things are back to normal.
I got my sewing machine for Christmas!!! So far I have made 3 pillowcase dresses and 1 burp cloth. I will take pics and hopefully post them later this week. I am SOOOOO excited to be able to make SaraKate's dresses rather than buying them and who knows maybe if I get good enough I might open an etsy store and sell them?!?!?!? We will have to see.....new venture for 2011?????

A Late Merry Christmas from Room 305

SaraKate has been feeling pretty cruddy for a few days. She has been on an antibiotic for ear infections since Wednesday but she started running a fever again this morning, combine that with wheezing and it was something I wanted checked out.
 We signed into the ER at 2:50 PM and finally got admitted a little after midnight! She has Pneumonia!!! :( We are here for at LEAST 48 hours! Please say a special prayer for my baby! Merry Christmas from room 305

Santa Pictures

My mom took my kiddos and got new Santa Pictures done by our wonderful daycare photographer Terry Barnard! He hosted a Christmas party and had a Christmas set complete with a real Santa for kids pics!!! I am so excited and they did Soooooo much better than they would have if I was there! Mom said SaraKate was crying up until the pictures were snapped but you can't tell.
