These were a bit of a challenge to make! Im used to straight lines, I mean just straight no turning the fabric! But I wanted to challenge myself, plus thats the only way I can get better with sewing. The way it scrunches up like that in the middle made it a little challenging to sew, but after the second one, I got...
[So I schedule all these blog post, but forget to hit publish instead of save and when I view my blog I always wonder why it never shows up! 'Hello Jenn! You might wanna hit publish!?" Woops!] Today's sew fun post features these oh-so easy diy pacifier clips! Remember I mentioned that these bad boys sell for $5.50 each on Etsy? I made...
So this isn't project nursery related so I had to figure out another category for this, since I started with Sew Fun as the title of the other post I did, I figured i'd continue with it. Today post is on the DIY Burp Cloth I made. Sewing has been addicting this past week. I haven't sewed this much since, I cant even...
I finally got some rest this week, well compared to last week! I'm still not getting a full 8 hours, but its better than 3-4 hours! Im not going to do my usual weekly update this week because I am out of energy at the moment, plus we gotta wake up at 430am for a sunrise maternity session! I just had to post...
After looking through Etsy and other websites numerous times for changing pad covers and decorative pillows, I have decided to take the plunge and sew my own! Most of the ones I really liked on Etsy are well over $30! Seriously!? Why so expensive? Haha! Since John has fixed my sewing machine the other day, I went to Joann's Fabric recently and bought...
The shipping was quick! We ordered the wrap on Sunday and it was delivered today! I was scrolling through my Instagram and saw that they were having a sale, and ya'll know me, I try and buy discounted as much as possible!! This wrap was on our registry and I was joking around with my Mom to buy it for me, and she...
Baby Size: Corn on a Cob (according to Ovia app!)Current Cravings: Its varied lately! But one thing that hasn't changed since I got pregnant is the need to eat cereal between 2-4 am! I've never eaten this much cereal before, Honey Bunches of Oats to be specific!Weight gain/lost: It was fluctuating actually. Last week I gained an extra 3 lbs, this week I lost 2....
After what felt like forever of searching and failed attempts, I couldn't believe we found the perfect one and our vision for the nursery was becoming more real! From the get go, we knew we didn't want anything bulky and preferred something sleek and not too heavy for the dresser and this mid-century dresser was just the perfect find! I have pinned a...
I spend a lot of time in the future nursery, mostly in the morning after breakfast. Once a week I'll go in there grab a book and sit on the floor and read this little babe a book. Today, after I read I went in his closet to adore his cute little itsy bitsy baby clothes and picked out a few favorites and...
Insomnia wins. Get as much sleep as you can now before baby's arrival, they said. Well, its 3:30 a.m. and I am wide awake. It has been like this for the past three nights. I'll go to bed my usual time which is 11 pm, but by 1:45 or 2:30 am I am up, both nights I had to get up to use...
We didn't get a chance to take a bump picture this week so Im using one from our trip recently. This was just a day before I was officially 21 weeks, so I guess it counts. Baby Size: Baby Bok Choy Current Cravings: Spicy! I know its bad, but I have been craving Korean bbq/food! Oh! & Raisinets, weird cuz I hardly ever ate...
Re-doing the closet was the second major thing we did for the nursery aside from painting the mural. I feel like we started on the nursery way too soon, but I thought about it and why not now? Because I'll eventually get bigger and I'll run out of energy a lot quicker again. Now is the best time to work on any "big"...
Since we were already up north for the weekend we figured we'd take a quick hiking trip at Great Falls Park. Its about a 20 minute drive outside of the Washington, DC area. It was 25 minutes from where we were staying in Fairfax. We got a late start to our day because we were both so tired from the night before that...
