Success!

Ok.. I'm blogging 2 times today... so scroll down and read my other post first.

I did have a Dr. apt on Tuesday. Which in case you are wondering, went well. Weight gain, blood pressure, and baby's heartbeat were all fantastic! Can't ask for a better 5 minute apt. They may be boring and at times seem pointless, but I have come to realize that is a good thing.

So since I didn't have my girls... what better to do than sleep and sew?? I won't blog about how much I slept, rather what I was useful doing. I found this tutorial for a bandana skirt when looking around at some stuff and thought it looked easy enough for a beginner project.. and it is! Mostly because if you mess up, its so not a straight and perfect (does that make sense?? Can't think of the word I'm trying to say) skirt that you can't tell until you just seriously look at it. I tried to make it smaller so I could make one for Payton.. but that didn't work out. Not sure how you would go about making a smaller sized one but its not how I though it would be.

I made this one first and messed up a lot... but its still awesome because I made it myself, and it cost me all of $2.50.

and my personal model refused to wear it and take a picture... so once she wears it, i'll get a picture and you can see it on.

I whipped this one up at nap time... so much easier the second time around. I did this one opposite, put the corresponding fabric up at the top rather than the bottom... and thats cuz I messed up on it. It is cute, and would be cute if it was longer... but it being so short will get covered up by a shirt.
2 skirts for 5 bucks. Can't beat that!

Anyways... I am glad to report that Madelynn is doing fan-tastic without her paci!!! Bed time is getting much much better. I have noticed a drastic change in her speech! Were still not 100% over it so keep prayin for the girl.
