Crocheted shoes for baby clanton

Julie — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 14:03:51 +0000

Since I knew this time I was having a boy I have been super stoked to get back into sewing. I did a lot between the age of 10-14 but basically haven’t done anything since other than a pillow or two. Especially since I really like sweet baby boy stuff for when they are young, not only is it hard to find but typically is a price I don’t want to pay. My niece Alaina (8 years old going on 40) comes to stay while her mom works & since she is totally into crocheting I decided to get her to re-teach me the stitches (she also taught me about inertia, this child, wow) she says to me as we are crocheting on the couch “this is so peaceful, it’s cold & rainy, this is so fun AND we are accomplishing something at the same time!” haha anyway, between her & you tube I picked it back up pretty quick. These are the shoes I made for baby boy clanton #2 I made some mistakes & the second one is better than the first but it will be ok. Up next will be some baby gowns, can’t wait!!

Cheesecake for Thanksgiving

Look Ma! I finally made a cheesecake that doesn’t have an earthquake down the middle!! I have a really hard time sharing things in my life on my blog, I’m not a big talker, I don’t have a lot to say & I certainly NOT a writer in any sense of the word but couldn’t resist taking pictures of this yumminess to prove I actually did accomplish this Not only did it look pretty, but it tasted divine!!

Cowboy boots

Julie — Thu, 10 Nov 2011 18:07:39 +0000

Well after months of not being able to accomplish much of anything I’m finally getting caught up!! It feels good! I am 17 weeks (almost 18 I think lol) pregnant & unlike the first time around it’s been pretty rough…not to mention my 16 month old had double ear infections that took over a month and 3 antibiotics to get rid of. Needless to say sleep deprivation + all day nausea does not a creative being make. These last few weeks have been catch up time now that we both feel better!! I have to say I love these boots & I’m gonna miss ‘em when they are gone and I must make myself one of these banners.

Yeah my focus is off & I have no idea why or what to do differently…so you photographer people just pretend you don’t notice
