Since Utah has very long winters, and I have babies that have to stay inside during the winter...I have plenty of time to do projects around the house. Now, that doesn't mean that I actually do them! (ask my husband), but lately I have been a little more motivated in trying to get some new projects done...and I must say I am quite pleased with the results... So first we have curtains I made for the sliding glass door that goes outside. We've had verticle blinds there for a while, but they just did not do anything for the space...so the curtains really compliment the other colors in the room...and dress it up!
Okay, so I can't fit a calendar in my kitchen anywhere, and we have a huge laundry room near the kitchen, so I decided to make some good use of the space by doing a magnet board and putting the boys backpacks underneath. It's simple, but cute! And now I have my calendar easily accessible!
Okay, this is not something I made, but rather something I recieved from my sister whose sister-in-law makes these. They are diaper/wipes holders. Made from a huggies wipes case that you put in your diaper bag. So one side opens to the wipes, and the other side has a pocket with diapers...so clever!!! I decided to try and make one myself so I can start making them for my friends who are having babies...So this one is mine that was a gift...I love it!
And so here is the first one I have made! It is my trial/error one. it turned out pretty cute I think!! And now I am going to make a whole bunch more for my friends having babies...
And finally I painted the wall with the fireplace on it and we added some complimentary decorative pillows and other accents in the room. I love the color and how it turned out. it totally changed the entire look of the room. It's been fun!
Super boys! I made capes for all the boys. Mainly cause Kyler and Brayden always want me to tie blankets around as capes, so I thought it would be fun to make them ones. And I couldn't resist doing one for Keaton as well :)
Keaton is 7 months old TODAY! I cannot believe it has been 7 months since he was born. He recently started rice cereal and loves it. He is still catching up to his actual age, but is getting there faster than I think Brayden did. (although Keaton is still really small!). I don't want him to change at all. He is sleeping through the night and a happy, mellow wonderful baby. I just want him to stay this way forever and not grow up so fast like my other boys. I am excited to be nearing the end of RSV season so we can start to take him places. He is doing so well! I love you Keaton. I love all my boys...most of the time! :)
And Keaton has just started to suck his thumb on occasion. So adorable, but not something I want him in the habit of because it's so hard to break!! He's just so lovable!
I'm a lucky gal! :)
What's this, you ask? A wrinkled shirt? Yes, a wrinkled shirt that has been sitting in our laundry room for several MONTHS. Yes, that's right, months. Why, you ask? Because I really don't like ironing and have to be in the mood to iron. Did I pretend to like ironing and actually be good at it before I got married, you ask? Yes, actually, I did. Why would I do something like that, you ask? To impress my sweet and cute husband (who was my cute and sweet almost boyfriend at the time) and show him that I was definetly marriage material. Obviously it worked, but to my sweet and patient husband, I think he has had years of disappointment in this area because I really have trouble ironing his shirts when he gives them to me. And he would iron them himselves if I hadn't told him one time that I was better at it...WHY did I say that?? So this is to you honey- thank you for being so sweet and patient to me and for being a loving husband who doesn't yell at me when I take three months to iron a shirt!! :)) KISSES!!
This is to prove I actually got out the iron and ironed his shirt...
This is the front of it, soooo cute!!
This is the front of it, and may I just say this one is my FAVORITE!! Maybe its because I am surrounded by boys that I am in desperate need of some girly things, but I think it is so stinkin cute!!
