Valentine's Day and Other Stuff

We had a happy heart day thanks to our two Valentines. Carter sported her Valentines jammies...

Last Friday we headed out with our Sesame Street gang to see Elmo Live again! This was our third year and this was the first time that Davis was spooked by the show. He was terrified that there would be fireworks at the end of the show and so I spent a lot of the time convincing him there would be no fireworks. I have no idea where he got the idea that there would be fireworks at the show.

 Ladybug came to Uncle Bubbi's house for a visit and got to meet Carter

 Davis skipped school one day last week and we hit up the Children's museum. Trying to take a selfie with a baby and a 4 year old is a little difficult!

 For Valentine's Day I made Davis a Ninja Turtles shirt and bought him a few other goodies including a Pete the Cat book. He loves Pete the Cat. He has the entire Pete the Cat shoes book memorized. Listening to him reading it is the cutest thing ever.

 He was so proud of the shirt. When I initially showed it to him he gasped out loud-it made my work on it worth it! He then told me he was going to take it off at lunch so that it would not get dirty for his party. He was so concerned he would mess it up!  He has the cutest personality and has been saying some really funny things. In the car the other day Jason hit the brakes and he said "hey! what's the big idea?" and after getting my car wash he noticed there was still some dirt and remarked that "that is ridiculous!". Oh brother.

I have used maternity leave to do a few other sewing projects. I finished one of Carter's dresses for Disney:

 I made her a onesie for Valentine's day too

 And have been playing with some new fonts:

Hope you had a happy heart day.

Carter 2 Months

My sweet girl turned two months old last week. This mommy is having a hard time with the fact that maternity leave is quickly coming to an end. I know I am not ready to leave my sweet girl after spending the last few months loving on her.

All the new babies at our church get their own star on the wall. I found Carter's star on the wall and snapped a photo. My favorite thing about the wall was that the majority of the stars belonged to our friends from Sunday School--all girls! We nearly took up the whole wall!

 I finally received Carter's newborn photos and I love them. I cannot wait to blow them up and hang them all over the house :)

 The pearls were my push present from Jason. If she is nice to me I will pass them along to her on her wedding day.

Carter started sleeping through the night about two weeks ago. This makes for a much happier and rested mommy!
