They Are Growing Like Weeds!


Yesterday I spent the better part of the day going through all the kids spring/summer clothes from last year to see what still fits everyone. The news was NOT good. Oh, my goodness. I can't believe how much they have all shot up. Thankfully, I am able to pass the boys clothes down the line. However, Oliver and Abby were in bad shape. I had to go shopping on-line and order Oliver a complete wardrobe for this season...ugh! As for Abby, yes, I do make most of her clothes. However, I always buy the staple stuff like T-shirts, tanks, and little cotton-lycra shorts to wear under dresses. Thankfully some of our favorite shops on-line were having great sales so I did very well for not too much money. Now, I really need to get busy making all the fun stuff. I have tons of ideas already and I can't wait to get started!

I can't wait to see your new creations. I've been completely unmotivated lately. Please send me some of your mojo!!

Ezeldabeth...Thankfully they never get jealous of the all clothes that Abby gets. Honestly, they could care less. However on occasion they do get envious of the extra time I spend with Abby and the attention she gets when people are oooing and ahhhhing over her when we go out and Abby is wearing one of my creations. But they always get over it quickly,.
