Robot birthday Bash
I had a handpainted robot banner to take cute pictures.
( Later I plan on using each guest picture to make my thank you cards with plus I think mom/dads will like a new cute pic of there child)


I made this really cute banner of my son over the years to display across the counter so people to see how he has changed over the years!
Made recycled robots out of tin cans, painted bolts and nuts. Hot glues them together for a very cute silverware holder for the party!
Well lets hope next year he changes the theme again, it was really fun searching for ideas for the party, there are so many people that are very creative and I loved search for new ideas as much as making them.
I say go cheap and have fun, no since spending a ton of money on one day when there are so many great inexpensive ideas out there waiting for you to use them in your next bash...
I will be updating on all the new things I have made lately for baby "e"...two hootie hiders one for winter and one for spring, cute cloth toys, burp clothes, changing pad cover, hot sling, baby holder and some great shots of the baby's room as decoration comes along...theme woodscape. color theme: tan, white, browns, and red
LoVe ya,

Carseat Cover
I have been working really hard lately getting ready for baby #2 to come into this world, making burp clothes, a changing pad cover, diaper holder, hootie hider and much more... I really wanted a new carseat cover so I began to look around etsy and discovered they are very expensive. Why, its just a cover, so I decided to take up the challenge myself and make one for my sweet new boy. Poor Ethan he only started getting fun stuff about 9 months after he was born, for one I was not in the mood to create and for two I did not even own a sewing machine until he was that age, praise God for my wonderful mother-in-law.
Now back to the cover, I began to take apart the old cover to use for a pattern as well as the batting, it was a long night in front of the TV with my seam ripper and the cover. When that was all finished I then had to cut all the pieces and start putting it all back together, note to self always take a before picture so you know how thing work, I am a very visual person but with a pregancy brain, you tend to forget something. I did only have to redo one part but the rest was all done correctly....and now the finished project!
