Bella 12 Month Photo Props

Our big girl turns one next month.
How did she get so big!!!
I keep collecting photo props for her 12 month pictures. I think I have too many and I might have to narrow it down for her pictures....
Today I finished a layered petal filled tutu for her.

It has matching tutu leg warmers!

I'm getting the crafting fever again! AAAAAAAHHHHH!

Messy Food Face



Here is a video of my daughter falling asleep in her food. My daughter was eating really well for months. She would clear her whole tray and still want more. Now she just wants to throw it all on the floor and smear it in her hair. It makes me feel like she is not getting enough to eat. I guess she is a big girl for her age and she is healthy and strong and if she gets hungry she will eat instead of throwing it on the floor lol. I shouldn't worry.

Birthday Gift

My friend Kayla can crochet like a Grandma on steroids. She is very talented. For my birthday she sent me this giant pink crocheted bow.
I love giant bows and I love pink!
Go check out my friend's shop! QuixoticKiss on Etsy.com. My giant bow kinda reminds me of Lady Gaga.

Cappuccino Muffins

Today I made cappuccino muffins with cappuccino spread. My husband and I decided to try 5 new recipes a month since we usually eat the same things over and over and over. We will try one new breakfast, one new lunch, one new dinner, one new dessert, and one new drink. Ill post the recipe later but these are VERY tasty!

Upcycled Layette Gowns

My husband and I have finally started going through the garage and we found a zillion tie dyed t-shirts. He didn't want most of them so I washed them all and didn't really know what to do with them. Finally I decided to recycle them into layette gowns. It is pretty fun!

Here is the old t-shirt with my pattern layed out on it. I got the pattern from when I made some layette gowns for humanitarian aid for the church to send to other countries.

Here is the finsihed result. What do you think? I am going to decorate it some more but not really sure what to put on it. ANY IDEAS!?
