Happy February!!

Just a couple of things I've been working on this week:

1. Makenna's Valentines outfit. This one was total trial and error for me and I spent hours on it last night. But my goal was to have it done by today and I finished in the wee hours of the morning. And I LOVE LOVE LOVE it.
2. Party favors for C's preschool class. Sorry so blurry. I took about 10 pictures and could not get a good shot. Aren't they cute?!? So easy too. I'm going to add a pink heart rice krispy treat on a stick to put in between the two suckers. Oh, and I decided today that I need to do each child's name on the front with red rub ons. I ordered them today off the internet. These are teeny tiny flower pots. I whipped up 10 of these in about an hour this week. Also plan to do a bigger pot with more treats for his teacher. Can't you just see a zillion variations of this idea for party favors for any occassion and teacher gifts and holiday neighbor gifts. I know I'll be using this idea a lot.

3. I have crocuses and daffodils sprouting in my yard. Yay!

4. Did you see that Harry Potter 7 is being released on July 21!!! Check out amazon for the details. It's kind of bittersweet. I love HP but don't want the series to end. I'm such a dork.

I'm working on more Vtines projects this week so I'll post them very soon!! Stay tuned.

I always say how alike we are, but #2 proves how different we are. That is soooo cute and I would never think of it or go to that much work. Good for you. So excited about HP. And M's outfit is adorable!

OKay, how on earth do you find the time for all these things? I can't even find the time to blow my own nose...
1. LOVE LOVE M's outfit. Will you make me matching ones for A&B?
2. Cute idea. I'm suce a wimp I tried to avoid the sign up at A's preschool. Inevitable I got roped into it and chose NOT to do the favors. We'll bring a box of cookes instead.
3.I share your sentiments about HP. Can't wait to read it though.

Okay, I thought NOTHING could top her adorable CHRISTMAS outfit...until Valentine's day came along. No offense to Carter, but I am so glad Makenna came along so you could make adorable outfits for her! I can hardly wait 'til St. Patrick's Day!
