WHO IN THE WORLD SENT THIS TO ME!

I got this



in the mail yesterday. It was an Amazon marketplace order. A seller by the name of "lilmermaid" got an order from someone to send this to "Ms. Sara Egbert". Two heart shaped lollipops (I'm afraid to eat since I don't know who this is from), and "Disney's Greatest Lullabies". First of all, whoever ordered it, thank you. Second of all, could you please send a VCR?

Weekend

We put up a swing in our backyard/patio. Rob and Jasper had a good time together playing and swinging this weekend, plus the weather was WONDERFUL!







Here's my latest sewing project. We went to Goodwill and bought a cool, kinda retro polyester suit jacket. I cut it up and made a pair of pants and a tie shirt for Jasper. The jacket only cost two dollars so it was quite a good deal to be able to make an entire outfit for Jasper out of it.





Here's Jasper a little while later, sans pants, in the bathroom. Rob said he had seven of them in his hand at once. Funny little guy...





"Oink, oink"- Jasper's first words. Just kidding, but this is one of the funniest pictures of Jasper yet.

Jasper in his tie shirt


Jasper in the tie onesie. I'm am more than happy to make one for anyone who wants one. I've seen these adult sized onesies at Goodwill. Just a few stains here and there, but I could probably cover them with the sewn on tie. Seriously, though, if you want one for your little boy (or girl I suppose) I'll totally make one.

Sewing Ties on Onesies

This is by far the easiest sewing project I've ever done. Some friends of ours, the Hendersons, gave us a cute, little onesie with a tie sewn on it for Jasper when we was born. Well, he's outgrown it. I was feeling really sad about it because we don't have very many "churchy" clothes for him. So, I decided to try and make some myself. It was soooo easy! All I did was cut out a tie shape (with a little extra room for the seam), ironed under the edges, and sewed it on to a onesie. Here' what I made:
